My very first build. Finished! Now if I know how to fly it...
I wanted something I could fly indoors 80% of the times and still have the juice for the other 20% outdoors.
Tips for the next person:
1) Use solder paste! I spent three days trying to get no-lead solder to stick to silver coated wires. Also, it's impossible to find rubbing alchold in Japan. Solder paste cleaned up the flux and got everything to play nice.
2) The adhesive used to glue the carbon fiber to the foam takes about 5 days to dry. During that time it will pick up any dirt, lint, solder bits, dreams, wishes, souls, etc. While it was semi-sticky, I used tweezers and picked at it till clumps would peel off.
The canopy is a RKH tiny whoop top. Running ibus , dshot and a led strip, so had to remap some pins. Batteries are rotorx 3s and turnigy bolt 2s.
Had a complete blast building the frame and can't wait to fly it.

Hey there, great build!
I've got a question: Is there a smaller version of this frame that could work with 6mm brushed motors?
whoop style looks lovely! mine ended up like this because i wanted this as flat as possible. (props are dual blades now)
one of my favorite quad now, I can fly this literally anywhere. party time is the best...
seems like you put wraith32 mini like me, (pretty much overkill for this quad though) try bidirectional setup!
when you can flip back from turtle crash, this thing is almost immortal.
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..

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..
