Hi guys,

after Nanolongrange comes Picolongrange! This is my take on a tiny FPV drone with good range. It is based on a 3d printed 70mm frame and small 1.6" propeller. By using Tinywhoop parts you can keep the costs down. It features

• 500m range
• 2km distance
• 45g AUW
• GPS

Moreover, it is a rather simple build with only the GPS required to be soldered. Check the youtube video for details.
