The Lumenier QAV-XS Stretch FPV Racing Quadcopter is a Stretch-X, light weight, super stiff, finely tuned airframe designed for high performance FPV Drone Racing. This racing airframe is stripped down to the bare essentials without sacrificing strength and durability. The Stretch-X has outstanding handling characteristics on pitch for a locked in, high speed forward flight, and quick snap rolls. This version features an ultra-durable 4mm carbon fiber main unibody plate.

The QAV-XS features a unique FPV camera and HD mounting system. The FPV camera is recessed partially below the top plate and protected by the top cross bar, guarding your electronics. At the same time, the camera sidewalls act as an angled wedge to set your HD camera on for recording, such as a GoPro, at a 35 degree angle. No need to 3D print custom mounts to angle up your camera anymore, just add some of the included neoprene foam, securely strap down your camera and fly!

To complement the great Lumenier frame, I used Lumenier RX2206-11 2350Kv motors, Lumenier Lux V2 Flight Controller board, and Lumenier TX5G2R 200mW VTX with race band (pigtail). I also incorporated a Foxeer Arrow V3 Camera, Foxeer Mini 5.8GHz Antenna (RHCP) with SMA, and a Matek HUBOSD8-SE power distribution board.

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..
