This is some of the previous quads / multirotors / birds I’ve had in the past. Probably a cool way of seeing what we flew previously!
QuadRevo Rage X
I have two three two “three” QuadRevo Rage X’s… they are meant for racing. The original ideal was to have multiple identical setups so that in the event of destroying one in a race I could easily swap it out for another. Due to the evolving nature of this hobby I have realized that it’s really not feasible to keep all of them up to date with the latest technology. Although this presented a unexpected benefit though; I can keep them similar and change little things and I’ll know if there really is a difference or if it’s just “hype”.
I am trying to do my best to keep this page updated with the current components. I no longer provide the CLI Dump because honestly I’m barely adjusting the tune now days.

QuadRevo 210
The QuadRevo Rage 210 is a 4mm bottom plate 3K Twill weave carbon fiber. This was my second frame from QuadRevo and a true beast. Capable of running 5″ props it has plenty of power to go around. This was the quad I took raced at the California Cup Finals in Southern California. Despite many people at the races utilizing X frames, I was still able to take home 2nd place.
Since it’s original build back in September, very little has changed, replaced motors/esc’s when needed. Shortened the stack a bit, but the overall components have been identical since it’s first build.

Airblade 130X
Here is a list of the various AirBladeUAV quads.
The Emax motors feel a bit more peppy but it’s not a HUGE difference imo. Plus most of the time you are flying a 130 you are flying it in tight conditions so the extra power may not be utilized much.

FloRotors 130
The small scale racing quad of choice for me is the FloRotors 130. It’s falls just under the FAA registrations size and is really a beefy frame… probably more than what is needed. I opted for many “full size” components so that I am able to get the best possible performance with little compromise.
