The LRX is their top mount freestyle frame designed for speed and agility. This very light strong frame with a short main body is still able to carry a lipo and HD camera on top. It is compact, agile and made from the highest quality carbon on the market today!

We're excited to reveal a new frame from one of our favourite brands! The Dquad Addiction is a middle-weight frame that offers incredible strength. One year of continuously improving the design has led the company to the point where they're very confident this frame is one of the strongest out there while still being sub 100 grams.

[h2]Night Fever update[/h2]
Happy news for fans who own the Night Fever DLC: we've added a Night Fever version of the new Hangar C03 update!

Just like we do with the main version of the game, we have continued to update and grow the content available in our DLC pack in free updates. To better reflect the increase of value included, we will update the price of the Night Fever DLC to €5.99 by the end of March. If you still want to get the DLC for €4.99, now is the time!

With this massive upgrade to the HangarC03 environment, we welcome you to the workplaces of the clumsiest container yard crew ever! Their mistakes will become your favorite industrial FPV playground, in an area over 4 times bigger than the original. Discover hidden passageways among the containers, powerloop impressive cranes and try your luck mere inches above the water. We're excited!

• Added: Hangar C03 revamp.
  
• Added: new official Track and Race for The Green (06 - The Nineteenth Hole). Thank you Simon Hirst! 
  
• Updated: content settings to reduce the patch size for future updates.
