2ND BUILD
still needs:
- micro receiver, r7008sb is very reliable (never got a failsafe) but a little too big
- still waiting for black runcam (orange stolen form robocat270)
- one faulty emax motor(kinda) voltage bleeds on the frame, so if anything grounded touches the frame - sparks (like fpv antenna grounded mount - resulting unusable fpv feed)
5045BN pull only 113 amps? o.0 (current sensor calibrated with multimeter and wattmeter)
really wanted to have detachable motors for easy replacement (changing KV), it also comes in handy with split level frame - you don't have to desolder anything for maintenance :)
NO SOLDERING between ESC and FC !! (HW x-rotor stack)

Love the build! So if you have current bleeding from motor to frame, do you have a motor screw touching windings on that motor? Every build vid i've seen they talk about using the quick connect motor wires for maintenance, but then don't do it. Cudos to you for going the distance, it's a great idea (and you KILLED it with the heatshrink on the connectors!!).

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..

Sylo, I actually recently upgraded the Storm Hawks motors to the Emax 2306 2750kv, so are builds are very similar!
how is your amp draw? are they hitting crazy numbers or they are around 30A?
Peaks around 40a on a big punchout.
looks like my current sensor is dodgy, it counts mah used perfectly fine, but my amps are capped at 110A, i hooked watt-meter and it showed 165a peak but FC showed 110A again..
