Mike at FPV FlihtClub kindly sent me one of these when he was protyping the frame, in the end he used a different carbon, although I can't think why as I can't break this (touch wood). The frame comes with a built in soft mount for the flight controller, is very light, was the first to use chamfered edges as far as I am aware, and has recessed screws in the bottom so your lipo doesn't get damaged. I switched props to gemfan flash from the racekraft shown in the picture, the thing is very locked in and flies superbly. I had to use a spare arrow mount to mount the swift as the swifts own mint dismal work but I believe this has since been rectified.. pololu is powering fpv kit, everything else is running off the battery voltage or the reg on the fc

Any idea where to pick up the antenna tubes in the US? Do they come with the tokio?

I think you get a set with the Tokio, although bear in mind mine was a prototype.
Try hobby stores, my local one sells tubing like that cheaply

Mike also sells them without the Tokio on fpv-flightclub.com in accessories. Flightclub is located in Texas.

Ty, yeah, it's the same plastic sheathing other use and various places sell, if you search outside of the quad shops (which seem to only sell single colours) you can find all sorts of varietys

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
