The 4 inch FPV racing revolution is coming. The SuperLight 4R is here to lead the way. This craft is a departure from conventional thinking with regard to what is possible from a 4 inch racer. It is also a departure from conventional thinking with regard to the proper electronics setup to get the most out of this little beast.
