This frame is super lightweight and responsive. Love the way it flies. I originally had a CL racing F4 with spedix escs and a set of xNova 2206 2450's. Now upgraded with a newer style fc and 4 in 1 combo from kamikaze. Also upgraded the xNova motors to the larger 2207 2600kv version. Should be interesting.

Now that's a premium build. How does it perform? What goggles are you using with that 16:9 cam?

@whiffles very smooth! Did the maiden today with some T5040 cyclones. Very Snappy and the higher kv with these motors make up for some top end. A very good freestyle frame.

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!
