Did a rebuild of this frame: moving to 4-in-1 stack, f40 flight controller, long range RCVR and antenna, motor upgrade.
This is my eighth DIY build. I've enjoyed my two Martian-IIs, but want to build something a little prettier. I'm a wee bit budget constrained and tried to get a decent flyer that also has some good features like taranis-based vtx control and nice BF compatibility.
Love this frame! It was hard to spend $95 on a frame (after my first two budget frames) but damn, it comes together nice!
I'm still working on cleaning up the wiring and I need to figure out how to mount my Runcam. Indoor test flights were predictable. Proper maiden soon!

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..
