HGLRC Wind5: 6S/4S FPV racing drone

HGLRC Wind5 FPV quadcopter

HGLRC’s new 5 inch FPV drone called Wind5 will be released in two power options. While the 6S comes 1600KV motors, the 4s version with 2450KV ones. Both variants will come with latest generation F7 flight controller and powerful 60A ESC.

Like many FPV drones, the HGLRC Wind5 is also equipped with Caddx Ratel FPV camera. Thanks to the “starlight” technology, it is capable to provide enjoyable video quality even in super dark conditions. The camera is paired with a 5.8G/48CH video transmitter. According to your needs, it allows to be set with 25mW, 100mW, 200mW ot 400mW TX power (of course 0mW/PIT mode is available as well).
