The Blade® Theory™ XL 5" BNF™ Basic race quad is a stretched-X FPV racing drone ready to scream past the competition, with no building, tinkering, or tuning necessary. The stretched-X design offers impressive stability in fast forward flight, and the 4mm frame thickness stands up well to crashes... ideal for a racing drone. New 2206-2450kv Thrust® motors and the 30 amp BLHeli ESCs make every maneuver feel smooth and locked-in. The fully-configurable F3 flight controller comes pre-flashed with Betaflight firmware and professionally tuned. A 200mW video transmitter with power switch and 700VTL CMOS camera provide clean and reliable video in any environment, while staying friendly to other pilots. With all the most popular components in FPV racing, the Theory XL 5" BNF takes the headache out of getting ready for a race, simply charge and connect a 4S battery, and you will be zooming through gates in no time.

Lighting-fast loop times provide a quick, responsive and locked-in feel in the air. Connections for RGB serial LED's give pilots the ability to brighten their Theory XL.
Clean and Simple Power Distribution
The newly designed power distribution board makes wiring and repairs a breeze. Simple connect (solder) both ESC power and signal wires directly to the power distribution board, and a single wire harness connects and to the flight controller.

30A BLHeli ESCs
New Blade 30A ESCs provide smooth and reliable power to the motors and are rated for 40A bursts. BLHeli pass-through in the flight controller makes programming and tuning these ESCs easy with a USB cable and computer.

When you plug in your Theory XL, the video transmitter will not power on until you press and hold the power button. This is perfect for flying with other people so you do not accidentally interfere with someone else's video while they are in the air.
NOTE: A HAM license is required to operate the Video Transmitter in the U.S.
