That is one fast quad! Can't believe what is possible with the right gear! Checking out those motors for sure. :-)
Great video! That was flying!! Thanks for the maths 😁
3:44 when he armed the quad it said "Shit, it's about to get real." Lmfao.
this is part of the additional sound pack that can be downloaded for opentx called Amber
Thanks for the great review and video Dave. I am looking into my first racing drone. Currently flying 700 size rc Heli's. What kind of goggles do you recommend with this setup you featured above?
Goggles is a very open question, I personally use Flysight Falcon goggles, but Fatshark Dominators are likely the way to go unless you want digital features which you could get the DJI FPV goggles and do the analogue mod.
That's truly amazing! I would love to build one (maybe with a 60A esc) and also it would be awesome if you could show as how it handles 6s! Actually i was thinking that a 5 inch toothpick frame such as the betafpv x knight 5 would give it better speed, acceleration and flight time in comprise of durability. But if it crashes at such speeds maybe durability isn't worth it...
Please show as more about this project!
Toothpick stuff is surprisingly durable IF your motors are lighg enough. Lightweight small motors don't have as much torque, but they rev faster and cause dramatically less damage in a crash because weight at the motors is what causes lots of the damage in a crash. I highly recommend looking into high rpm smaller motors with toothpicks. You can go even faster than 150mph with the right setup. "deez nuts" brand lock nuts are also excellent for small motors because they are half the weight of normal lock nuts. This means your low torque smaller motors can actually reach a higher rpm and overtake the big motors with their lower rpms. Using the right props is important too. I've made 3 and 4 inch toothpicks that were this fast by taking advantage of small motors and high rpms with extreeeeemely low weights in conjunction with proper props. Both my 3 inch and 4 inch have around 18:1 thrust to weight ratio and are extreeeemely fast. Lookup "green light" on rotorbuilds. That was a 4 inch i built and sold. My 3 inch was arguably more impressive but I sold it before I posted the build.
@@alexcrowder1673 amazing information! In the interval since I wrote this comment I realised there is so much more I have to learn to complete such a project. I wanted to use very big motors (example 2408, 2500kv/6s) to give me extreme punch outs to 100m. Turns out I don't have the knowledge and the money needed yet! I don't give up, when the conditions are right and I feel ready, I will try my best! Cheers!
@@xarisrig7561 There are so many ways to come up with the speeds you are looking for. Big motors and heavy drones aren't bad, but they can do more damage to a frame or to someone's property in the event of a crash. Personally I chose the ultra lightweight approach mostly because I wanted all my drones well under 250 grams for legal reasons. When I built them they were under a different set of laws because they were technically considered "toys" based on their weight despite being able to go over 150mph in seconds. My setups can't fly for shit with extra weight like a go pro though. They will still fly, just not well lol. The same is true of super aggresive props, they just don't do well since I'm already using undersized motors. I use cobra 1407 in my 4 inch, which is technically a 3 inch class motor, but they are 4100kv and put out 900grams of thrust a piece with the 4 inch props im using. This totals to around 3600 grams of thrust on a 208 gram quad (this is AUW including batteries and strap etc). The 1407 cobra motors can do aggresive 2 blade or really mild 3 blade props but anything else is wonky. Even with the right props, my setup absolutely has to stay under about 240-250 grams or the cobra motors won't be able hit full rpms. With big powerful motors like in this video prop selection is still an issue, but MUCH less so than with undersized motors like I use. That said, setups like mine can turn a hell of a lot better, they ARE harder to fly though. I mostly built and sold them. I'm honestly not skilled enough to fly that shit all out lol. Don't really want to break something before I can sell it lol. Edit: don't forget to look up the light weight locknuts. Any motor can benefit from them. They hold GREAT despite being half the height of normal locknuts. Plus the brand name is just too funny lol. The brand is (no joke) "deez nuts".
@@alexcrowder1673 Thanks again, your information is very useful!
I’m just getting into FPV drones and was wondering where I could get FPV goggle for a good price and still get good quality? Also best of luck for getting to 1k I wanna be there for it!!!
46,000+ views and only 700 likes? That's under 2% of the viewers thumbing it up. The video seemed good to me. What's with everybody else?
Who knows??? People will be people :D
Can you give me all the info on where you got all the parts to build this drone and what googles and controller I should get.
can your same battery fly with a esc that can recive 35A for maximum and 45 for 5 seconds?
what battery did you use?
you should deff do a tutorial thumbs up all day over here
2 years later and i totaly should hey
Nice video and clear math 👍 what would happen if you hade alot of baldes on the prop?
More prop blades tends to lower top speed and improve cornering handling as there is more drag but more bite.
Very interesting your video have luck my friend.
thank you for reckoning me this
Can you upload a complete build guide for this setup please thank you :)
Its 2 years later... maybe i will have to LOL
Fr
hello, great video, you could put the links of the propellers, and specify the flight times. 👍
The propellors are Gemfan Hulkie 5055S, you should be able to find them at a local drone store or online.
The flight times depend on the quality of the battery and how spirited your flying is. I would say from 2 minutes to maybe 8 minutes.
This thing is built for speed and speed alone
What all did you use to build that ?
0-250 Kmh in 1 or 2 seconds... amazing its a rocket!
I wish I could sit in it, would be so fun until it hit something
@@daveefordays That's 12-24 Gs... 😅
@@gagansrai8137 oh damnnnn
How would you improve the video feed, maybe a better camera or vtx or goggles
That video feed is quite good unless you go to the digital dji fpv system.
The problem is the digital one has higher latency and is much heavier and larger.
Hi sir how much u able to last if cruise around with mildly pushing? Thank and wow what a great budget speed killer build
Probably 3 minutes.
@@daveefordays thx great flying. Please upload more fpv videos
This is great and all. But for beginners it doesnt help explain how to build and what camera you use how to mount and what goggles? And how to connect?
What battery are you using and do you have a tutorial available?
I am using a CNHL Ministar 4S 1500mah 120C
I'm sorry no tutorial, maybe at the end of the year for christmas I'll do an updated build and guide
will it still work if i use the br2207s 2500kv moters they have em with a bundle of 4 for 50$ which is half the price
Yeah just not as peppy
Very good video thank you
Thanks for your kind words
Good stuff
I have never flown a race quad in real life, but I have 400 hours in the dcl sim. Would you consider this to be a good purchase for me?
I'd recommend most of the same parts, but maybe consider a TBS Source one frame instead as it'll hold up to abuse a bit better. You will crash it a lot regardless.
With that frame i'd recommend a 2306 size motor since the 2508's might draw a bit much power.
@@daveefordays What 2306 motors would you recommend and at what KV? Would they still go about the same speed too? Thanks for the video too, its great!
@@dailydriftclips6128 2306 might go well on a lighter setup if you go 2700kv, maybe run a shallower prop
@@daveefordays Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. Would it still get similar speeds or no? Im also looking to mount a Caddx orca on top so wondering if it could handle that for a bit of freestyle.
@@dailydriftclips6128 there is a lot to go right to get that speed, id say youd be in the same class of speed but youd need to do testing to really know
Hello, how much did the goggles cost and what brand & model are they also what's the distance of them?
Thanks,
George
Hi they are flysight falcon FG01, they are a bit old now, I would look into the DJI FPV system
can you do an updated version please bc a lot of the links arent working for me?
I would love to but im not really working with any of my drone company affiliates anymore sadly.
I will look into doing another build like this in 2023 maybe
Hi, do you know an equivalent of the frame ? Because it's no longer available online...
Id go for a tbs source 2
@@daveefordays ok thanks 👍
What do you suggest for a controller and goggles? Not looking to break the bank
Cheapest option would be the ev800d and fs i6.
@@daveefordays Thank you! Have you thought about doing a build guide at all?
@@CODMods99 I have, but there are plenty of guides for similar components. If there was a lot of people wanting one id do it
Can you add gps and a return to home features to something like this? Also with a good battery what’s the flight time and range? I’ve played with my mavic 2 pro for a year and I’m starting to get bored because it’s not fast enough. Lol
You can get gps and return to home setup but it is kinda beside the point. Same with battery life.
You can get 3-5 minutes of battery life but at that speed it's plenty. You generally come to the park with 10 or so batteries. It's definitely an exhilarating experience and you crash a lot, especially learning acro flight.
daveefordays wow! 3-5 minutes! I guess at 100+ mph you’d cover a lot of area. What’s the range on something like this?
@@Vettdude72210 it really depends on your setup. Basic gear will get you 1km but I run a different frequency that can go up to 15km. Again kind of beside the point as it's far more fun(and legal) to fly in and around trees. Have a look at some of my other drone flying videos.
Also if you want to get into the hobby jump on intofpv forums and ask around, my username on there is "bffigjam", we can show you everything required to get setup.
daveefordays thanks for the information man! Great videos
Did you have to solder the FC and VTX to the frame?
No whys that?
@@daveefordays I suppose I meant did you have to do any soldering at all? I want to make one myself but I don't have a soldering kit or tools in general. I also don't think I can afford to spend much beyond the $150 on tools but I really want to try to build a drone like this one. This particular model might be a little too ambitious for a first build but I want to go all out. Thank you so much for the links and video!
@@supersaiyan44035 Unfortunately in this build you do need to solder.
I would recommend getting a good temperature controlled soldering station off of ebay, can be had for as little as $30. You want atleast 50-60W.
In this build you need to solder motor wires to ESC, Power WIres to ESC, Camera to FC, VTX to FC and Receiver to FC. So there is a bit of soldering involved.
I'm like # 420 8?D "Shit is about to get real" how did you do that?
Haha taranis sound pack. Every time i flick the arm switch!
Silly question from a newbie, how'd you get the drone to talk like that?
I dont know what you mean 😅
@@daveefordays Lol nvm, it's ya radio, I didn't know about open tx Or whatever you are using.
wow thats bloody quick, all those fancy motors they use in there how to build video's, that cost 35 dollars au. cheap racerstar motors beat them all so far, well done.
Yep lol.
I need this drone in my life where can I buy one from
Links in description
@@daveefordays I would like to buy one are you selling them?
what sort of range ya getting there mate
900mhz so a few k
Where can I get the batteries and the charger
I like to buy the batteries directly from the CNHL website, and for a charger i am a fan of the Toolkitrc M8 for a good value option but you will need to purchase a power supply for it also.
Come to intofpv or into3dp and ask any questions you have and ill be happy to respond
Which controller do you use?
Look in the description for a full parts list.
can you add a link for a decent cheap pare of goggles and a controller that will connect to this
E800d
huh 2508 motors on a 5''? And these are just 30 dollars for a set of 4 as well.. wow! Would the 1772kv version be suitable for a budget 5'' Freestyle build?
Yeah they are suprisingly decent!
@@daveefordays yeah, really surprising. Would you recommend these or 2306 for freestyle on a ~100g frame?
@@ValFPV depends what you want, 2306 will be powerful enough and probably more efficient. These have better throttle response and more raw power.
4:06 shows how fast it can go
What is the esc and propeller.
Look in the description
Can you show us how did you build that
If you get a few more people asking me then sure!
@@daveefordays plz
@@Oxidon there are many fpv 5'' build tutorials out there :)
What controller u use?
I have a FS-i6, FS-i6s, QX7 and TX16S.
In this video I am running the QX7, which has upgraded hall sensor gimbals.
@@daveefordays could you use the devo 7e as a controller too
what kv u use ?
2522kv, as I stated in the video and the links in the description
I want THAT speed
SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED
What brand your receiver sir
Hi there, I built this Quad and used a Jumper R1 Receiver. Works fine and the drone is hilarious :)
I was using a Frsky R-XSR but like @FAIRZoCKER781 said, you can use other receivers just fine
Where can I buy one?
sadly this video is now 3 years old so a lot of the parts aren't available or are more expensive now - You can probably build something similar for around $250
Props dimensions?plz
The props are Gemfan Hulkie 5055S
Check out my 6s drone 70amp 2750kv motors that show over 150mph on gps with no issues.
What size of battery sir
I was using a 1500mah 4S 100C in this video.
you can run those motors on 5s with 2522kv, give it a go before i do lol
I'll probably go straight for 6s...
@@daveefordays make sure you put footage on youtube please. looking forward to seeing it. already a beast on 4s
daveefordays are you putting a throttle limit or just 6s with nothing at all?
Damn you look like Felixba a big german techyoutuber 😂
Hahahaha, i think i come from german heritage so that could make sense.
What are u using for VTX antenna?
Aomway clover, but recently been using a realacc axii
@@daveefordays I would like to ask another question. How heigh is the frame? D you think there is a chance to mount an Immortal T vertically with an angle like the angle of the camera?
@@flywithtb5005 the frame is about 40mm tall.
You might be able to do that but i would put it under one arm at the back
@@daveefordays Could you pls answer me one more thing? How did you mount the receiver in that tiny frame?
@@flywithtb5005 I used an R-XSR and I just heatshrinked it and sandwiched it in the stack
Sir size of props?
The Props are Gemfan Hulkie 5055S
That dog was like 'what the fuck was that'..lol
Hahahaha
Can these motors handle 6s, would I have to put a throttle cap or no ?
You should put a throttle cap or get the lower KV. I will be trying them on 6S with no throttle cap soon.
@@daveefordays How did 6s work out?
@@charlesmcguire9711 lol 1 year later i still havent done it :(
@@daveefordays how about now? maybe make an updated build. all parts out of stock. thanks!
cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
ffffaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssstttttttttt
i know my 250 rd i built 8 years has to go over 60 on 3s...
Most Likely!
just a couple bent props, forgetting to mention the broken camera
What broken camera? I still use it all the time
Battery fell out of the drone causing the video feed to drop...
Hello brother, I can come to me with Motor Brisles. I want to make helicoptar dron, but I don't have the pieces. You can bring me the pieces
Can you build me 1, ready to fly, battery, goggles, remote everything it needs? Put it in a box and send it to me for one price? How much would that be in NZ $? 😊 thanks.
Hahaha too much sorry, there is many hours in assembling it and I would have to charge you for my time
1$=1mph
Put gps
So one crash bye drone 😂
Haha it didn't die, i crashed it at the end and it lived
Really hard to see even when in one place
lol
you should change your title. it cant be built for that price, will be over $200
If you look at the date of posting the price is accurate for then. Obviously prices go up when you have a global pandemic.
@@daveefordays that’s why I said change the title so it reflects on todays price. I must be the only one who updates my titles I guess
Wait... Aussie Dollars?
It was USD sorry haha. Plus this was a couple years ago, things have changed a little now.
@@daveefordays Yes I looked at the site you linked. I see that it's a bit of an investment to get everything needed to start out. It looks fun though
@elandashing1814 yeah a remote and goggles and charger is what adds up
@@daveefordays do you have a suggestion or a video about a complete kit for the lowest price?
@elandashing1814 there is a lot to understand. Your best bet is to go to the intofpv forum and read and learn about what people are using currently, and maybe make a post stating what you want to use it for and ask for help. The people on intofpv are wonderful, and I used to be very active on there before life changed a lot. They would all know me as bffigjam if you mention it in your post.
Man what would you charge me to build me one. Im not a builder but I can fly the heck out of them. Building one Is bove my brane grade to much to remember HaHa. Let me know.
Depends where you are in the world. If youre not in Australia i probably cant help
There is no way you built that for $150. The motors are $18 each, the FC stack is $93, that's $165 right there.
You have to keep in mind I built this 3 years ago and the prices of everything have doubled due to pandemic
