Axisflying Bando 5 SE is a durable 5" freestyle drone with digital HD transmission DJI O4 Lite, suitable for freestyle, bando, and proximity flying. The SE is a more affordable variant of the Bando series, lowering the entry barrier while maintaining a robust construction for flying in challenging environments. The frame utilizes True X geometry with a motor diagonal distance of 230 mm and is built from carbon T700, aluminum parts 7075, and printed TPU parts. The arms have a thickness of 7 mm, providing high resistance during impacts with hard obstacles. The electronics stack is covered with plastic side panels. The side panels can be opened at a 60° angle, allowing convenient access to components during servicing.
The control is managed by the Argus ECO F405 stack. The flight controller features an F405 processor, ICM-42688P gyro, 16 MB blackbox memory, and a barometer for altitude measurement. The stack includes 60 A ESCs with BLHeli_32 firmware. The propulsion is handled by AE2207 V2 1960 KV motors combined with 5.1" HQ R37 propellers. The drone is powered by a 6S battery.
The digital HD transmission DJI O4 Lite is complemented by a Black Bear long-range antenna. The ELRS receiver operates at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. It also includes a GPS module Beizheng121 for functions like return to home.
The weight of the drone without the battery is 461 g. Recommended are 6S LiPo or LiHV batteries with a capacity around 1300–1800 mAh and an XT60 connector.
