Did you end up going with the blue or the purple standoffs? I'm considering blue or black for mine. It's generally a blue theme with clear RK props, but I'm debating whether or not the blue standoffs would be too much with blue screws and blue nylocks.

I put blue on it since I only had orange props. I have purple props now so I may change it. but it fly's so well I don't really care the color.

You run the battery on the bottom? And whats the orange antenna setup in the first pic?

How are you liking this frame.The 3mm arms concerns me as I just broke an arm on a quadrevo 210 with 4mm arms.Where did you order fromand where is the company located.Thanks as I am desperatly in need of another 5''' build.

I love the frame, I was a little concerned about the 3mm arms also. so far it has handled everything I have throw at it, even some hard crashes. The frame is available from rotoraceframes.com he ships quick.

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..
