My "LeapFrog" build.
The props on here are some 3in tris I had laying around, which I used for testing.
New props are on the way as I write this, so I will update when they arrive.
It is currently untuned, will update with PID's when I am done tuning.
Since Pittsburgh is the London of the US, there has been so much rain that I have only flown once. Nonetheless, DVR will be up in a few days if possible, and if you want to see anything just comment and I will try my best!
Thanks to anyone who helped me

I would definitely try to be running all of the same motors, although, that's close enough that it should at least hover, I assume. Are all the motors spinning the right direction? Did you recalibrate your accelerometer?
I would also try soft mounting your FC, you can put little rubber rings on either side and don't over tighten on top of them. Also are you just idling on the ground or have you tried to pop it off the ground. Sometimes your FC can freak out from getting too much noise from not soft mounting or just contact with the ground at idle
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..

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..

I feel your lack of fly time pain. Ever since I went droniac, I've been searching for ways to hibernate thru the winter.
I bought the Eachine E013 off banggood, but it is just not the same :( on the bright side, I am itching to fly, so I am going to rip nonstop
