Cheap MegaPixel build

This particular VTX was pretty bad, bleeds into every other channel. Might want to get a real Eachine one instead.

All my TBS vtx's bleed into 4 or 5 other bands... kinda stupid. It's so bad I can't tell which on it's actually transmitting on unti you walk hella far away and channel+band search

This thing was bleeding a lot worse than that. I own a few TBS and I have never seen a VTX quite as bad as this Gearbest special.

You almost hit those powerlines! I cringed when I saw that.

The lower ones are actually cable and fiber from the local ISPs. And I actually do hit them quite often. But they have so much slack in the lines and the insulation is so thick that it doesn't cause any damage, especially with a quad this light.

Seriously don't use that VTX. It was flakey from the beginning. And when it finally died for good, it took the 5v regulator on the FC with it. Now this thing is out of commision until I can fix it.

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..
