The TBS Source Podracer 5 is an ultralight racing frame that's a dream for speed enthusiasts and grassroots FPV racers! Here's why it stands out:
- • Unmatched Speed: Engineered to maximize speed and minimize drag, it's built for the race track.
- • Component Compatibility: Fits and protects all current toothpick-style FPV components, making setup a breeze.
- • Lightweight Design: Optimized for light weight, ensuring agile performance.
It's not just a frame; it's your ticket to victory! Recommended for pro racing pilots seeking the edge.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The SOURCE PODRACER project is a collaborative FPV frame project initiated by Team BlackSheep. The frame is donated to the community to empower creators and makers and integrate best practices and current trends faster into a continuously manufactured product. In return, it allows the local distribution network to have cheap and direct access to a good frame in order to compete in an increasingly predatory marketplace.
The hope is for this frame to enable broad access to FPV thanks to a low price point, great documentation, and wide availability of compatible parts and accessories, without violating other people's intellectual property.
