TBS Showcase

If you watched the show before you may have seen our review of the TBS Discovery. 

Say hello to the new and improved version, the TBS Discovery Pro!

The Pro version of this multirotor features an aluminum CNC gimbal with direct drive motors that is preinstalled. 

Also featured is the TBS Core PNP Pro. This baby packs in your OSD, GPS, Telemetry, and will work anywhere from a 2S to 6S setup. 

 The booms are able to be switched out very easily to adjust with your prop and motor size. If you do want to swing some huge props, it's no problem. 

On the other spectrum, we have the soon to be released TBS Gemini. 

This little racing hex flys on 2100 kv motors spinning 4 x 5 props. This is the only prototype that exists currently. 

You can tell that TBS did have the racing pilot in mind when they designed this. The booms are actually angled forward 10° so that when you are flying insanely fast, (as you will tend to do with something like this,) the body doesn't lean forward as much as it would otherwise which keeps the FPV camera pointing towards where you are going and helps you maintain stability. 

The entire control board is removable. All the ESCs can be soldered out and replaced in the event one burns out on you. Better yet, if you have a separate board with you at the field, you can drop in the new one and be back in the air in no time. 

We are very excited to see where TBS takes this new product of their, so keep your eyes open for this. Also, we have affectionately named it the "flying potato". Take that as you will :)

Special thanks to Trappy for stopping by and showing us a sneak peek of their upcoming racer!
