Rotorgeeks Bluejay - BNF ELRS

This little 2S BNF is a lot of fun and an ideal first drone giving you speed and agility!  It is super small, very light and loads of fun to fly around.
With a 2S 300-660mAh battery you get plenty of flight time to enjoy its range. The larger batteries provide longer flight time (5+ minutes).
The new X12 AIO flight control board comes with a higher power 400mW video transmitter and sleeved dipole antenna, giving amazing video range to match the onboard ExpressLRS receiver.

Notes:

Thanks to Nick Burns and Infinity Loops for reviewing our kit! We have made a few changes based on their feedback:

• The antenna holder on the canopy has been revised and will hold the antenna better than the previous version.
