Any chance you weighed just the frame? I'm going to transfer this https://rotorbuilds.com/build/4742 to this frame once I manage to kill it. They say it's 104g but they are usually very optimistic and underweigh it by 20 grams or so

Sorry, but i forgot to. hopefully the weight on their site is correct.

One sweet looking build, I love this frame, so sexy looking. Curious about it though with the metal cage. How much does your build weigh. You certainly did an excellent job with this tight build keeping it all clean. Fantastic job!

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the compliments - ive worked hard on this one and I can honestly say that it is the best flying quad I've built so far. I really love the design of this frame. It's tight for sure, but it was possible to cram everything in there. The one thing I'll do differently if it ever gets a rebuild is figure out a way to do away with the 12v/5v regulator board (the middle board in the stack) and then use a 30*30 stackable vtx so that I can get rid of the ghetto vtx that I zip tied into place behind the camera on the frame rails. I'll post a pic of it on a scale in a minute so you can see what it weighs in it's current configuration.

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..
