Overview
About iFlight Nazgul5 V3 5 inch Frame Kit.
The iFlight Nazgul5 V3 (Nazgul XL5) is a 5 inch freestyle quadcopter frame kit with a 245mm wheelbase and a true-X geometry, derived from one of iFlight's best-known freestyle platforms. The slightly stretched 245mm layout adds stability and propeller clearance for cinematic freestyle compared with tighter 220mm frames, while the super-stiff carbon plates and 5mm arms minimise resonance reaching the gyro. It is a frame kit, so you complete it with your own stack, motors and FPV system.
The kit is well thought out for real builds: it includes TPU accessories such as a GoPro mount, arm guards, motor wire shields, a battery pad and battery straps, which saves printing or sourcing those parts separately. The deck supports both 30.5x30.5 and 20x20 stacks, the 16x16mm motor mounts fit common 5 inch motors, and there is room for HD air units like the DJI O3, making it a flexible base for analog or digital FPV.
It is aimed at freestyle and cinematic FPV pilots who want a refined, ready-accessorised 5 inch frame, builders upgrading from cheaper clones, and anyone who values iFlight's part availability and fit. The included TPU and guards make it a convenient choice for a clean, durable freestyle build.

Buying guide
How to choose.
The Nazgul5 V3 is a frame kit, so plan for a 30.5x30.5 flight stack, 2207-class motors, propellers, an FPV camera and a VTX or HD air unit. The included TPU parts (GoPro mount, guards, wire shields, battery pad and straps) mean you can skip printing those accessories, which adds value over bare clone frames.
Pick the 245mm Nazgul5 V3 if you want a stable, cinematic freestyle feel rather than the tightest, most agile racing geometry. The longer wheelbase smooths out flight for filming and long throws, and the stiff carbon keeps footage and gyro response clean. Confirm exactly which variant (V3 / XL5) you are buying, as iFlight has several related 5 inch frames.
If you plan to fly DJI O3 or another HD unit, verify the air unit and camera fit the cage and deck before ordering. iFlight's strong parts availability means replacement arms and TPU are easy to source, so keeping a spare arm set lets you recover quickly from a crash.
FAQ
Common questions.
Is the Nazgul5 V3 the same as the Nazgul XL5?
iFlight markets this frame under the Nazgul5 V3 / Nazgul XL5 name with a 245mm wheelbase. There are several closely related iFlight 5 inch frames, so check the exact model and revision in the listing to be sure you get the variant and arm spec you expect.
What is included in the kit?
Beyond the carbon frame, the kit typically includes TPU accessories such as a GoPro mount, four arm guards, motor wire shields, a battery pad and two battery straps, plus mounting hardware. Electronics, motors and the FPV system are not included and must be added separately.
Does it support DJI O3 and HD systems?
Yes, the frame is designed to accommodate HD air units including the DJI O3 alongside analog setups. As always, confirm the specific air unit and camera dimensions against the cage before buying, and use the included or printed TPU mounts for a secure HD install.
What motors fit the 16x16mm mount?
The 16x16mm pattern fits common 5 inch freestyle motors, with iFlight recommending 2207-class motors. Match KV to your battery, using lower KV for 6S and higher KV for 4S to keep current draw and prop loading in a healthy range.
Why choose 245mm over a 220mm frame?
The longer 245mm wheelbase gives more stability, smoother cinematic flight and extra propeller clearance, which many freestyle and filming pilots prefer. A tighter 220mm frame is more agile and lighter, so the choice depends on whether you prioritise smoothness or raw responsiveness.
What does the frame weigh?
The carbon frame alone is around 130g excluding TPU parts. Once you add the TPU accessories, stack, motors, FPV gear and battery, the all-up weight will be substantially higher, which is normal for a fully built 5 inch freestyle quad.
