I've been enjoying the 25min flight time I get on my 4" Li-Ion micro long range (Flywoo LR4). But I'm now looking for something bigger with better wind resistance and more space so I can fit experimental video systems.

I think 7" is the way to go, punchy, has slightly more flight time? It's very noisy which isn't great around here, but I can still use the Flywoo when I need stealth.

I've seen GEPRC Moz7, iFlight Chimera 7, and the Chris Rosser AOS UL7, Mario 8. The Chimera7 is the oldest but still seems to have the best flight time. Is it still a good drone?

iFlight drones are super good

Biased towards the mario 8 here tbf

#

Longer packs fit better on it than the chimera

I may be biased but I would go 10 inch, a plus is it's also quieter in the sense that the sound is a different pitch

I did think about 10". They have similar flight time but are faster and more stable? At cost of portability ?

I've ordered a 6S2P Molicell pack... it's long.
