Testing out the new long range endurance drone. An ultralight 6 inch using the new TMotor F2203.5 motors.
I designed and built this new ultralight 6 inch (5 inch capable too) race drone to further test the limits of the new motor offering from TMotor. I feel the slightly larger stator (2203.5) really benefits overall flight characteristics compared to similar mini long range drones in this genre. They seem to favour the 2004 size or equivalent. For users not constrained by 'sub250' then these are a worthy choice.
A lot of people have asked about the frame designs and whether or not they are available. Currently I have only designed and produced these for my own testing but the encouraging feedback has prompted me to make them accessible. Just working on the best way to get these out, that won't be far off.
Thanks for taking the time to watch the video. I'll be sure to update as I progress with further testing and development.
