My first stretched frame. The frame is a copy of B.Crow SX210(aliexpress link, they also sell the original with different title). I wanted to eliminate placing escs on arm and to use new betaflight feature osd and smartaudio(both on osd and taranis lua script), matek seems to support my build. The 40A es has a burst rate of 50A which should be able to handle high current draw from Cobra CP22-7 2600kv. XSR is now sit under the VTx by using 6mm nylon standoff instead of 5mm that came with matek package. I also use the matek ipex antenna which slotted into aquarium tube for a better crash protection.
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..

I've been working on the same frame that I picked up on Amazon. How do you like it so far?
It is a great frame. Theres a extra camera mount if you have no plan on mounting action cam. The action cam mount plate give extra support for the frame standoff, unlike XBee SR(somewhat similar) which also has action cam mount but the mount itself will cause the top plate to break on hard crash,. this frame use front to back side support which will make it extra durable but with weigh added. 5mm arm seems stronger than XBee 4mm. I like this frame better than XBee-SR(I have both) :)
Thanks for the heads-up on the frame! I'm almost done, just tying up a few loose ends. My plan is to drop the top and use a TPU cam mount....I can always go back to stock if it doesn't work out.
