thats a pretty damn cool canopy. Is it your own design or could I pick it up somewhere?

Thanks! Yes, I designed it myself, needs a few adjustments though, am currently working on it.

Hey! Could I possibly get the file for the canopy if you still have it laying around?

Have you noticed any issues with your Fortini and the Current Draw OSD item? Mine is stuck on 30 amps, wondering if I wired something wrong or its something I have configured wrong... or if its a defect in the FC :( Thanks!

Badass looking floss man, how's the range with that style VTX antenna? I've never used one but they seem to come on a few VTX's now.

I've used them a lot, absolutely fine. If you're not participating in any events which require the use of a circular-polarised antenna, I would recommend them, as using large SMA ones just results in lots of breaking as most of us know!

Good to know man, thanks.

And yes, I've ruined a couple of VTX's catching the RHCP antennas one thinks I didn't see and ripping the entire thing off the quad. I'll give one of them a shot on my ghost build I'm doing next.

Mhmm, especially racing with friends I love to use them! Don't have to worry in every crash or fix the quad every time.

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..
