Thanks a lot!

I'm very interested in this and if you could build a Flywoo Explorer LR 4 for long distance with Arducopter and a Holybro Kakute H743 mini flight controller

[@andypiper5285]

This would work well on any small copter with H743

@@jamesmason7124 I've built an Explorer LR4 with Kakute H7 Mini, Mamba F30 ESC & 1404 3000KV motors and it flies very well with Arducopter.
I had to omit the third pair of standoffs. Some FCU/ESC would foul the second pair as well. I think that omitting two pairs of standoffs would be a compromise too far, so choose your ESC carefully.

@@jamesmason7124 I used a WalkSnail WS-M181 GPS and had to modify the mount because the connector is offset on this unit.

​@randomd6r do you have a recommendation of a esc for long distance and cruising flying

@@jamesmason7124 I use 4S 650mah lipo so mine is sub 250g. Full throttle climb rate is impressive and causes the battery to sag to 13v, but it's theoretically well within the current rating of the ESC. I assume a 4S Li-Ion long range battery wouldn't trouble the ESC either. Diatone Mamba F30 is very compact, fits nicely and works for me. I think a Speedybee Mini BLS ESC might also fit, but with much less clearance between ESC & standoffs.
