      When i got into fpv drones and bought some of a guy that built them all he said was he didnt have time to teach me and i was just acting like a brat for asking for some guidance. Then he reffered "if you dont even know what beta flight is why did you get into this hobby" Well was he right i guess, sold my drones a couple of months after that. I really do miss flying Fpv and i will probably get into it again, but for now im just getting my DJI mini 2 so i can atleast get in the air again!

    OK I just want to start by saying I almost never leave comments. Mainly because I watched most of my CZcams on my TV. But I actually got my phone out just to leave a comment here. Dude this is a super well done tutorial for the basics. I’m experience in working on and repairing electronics so that’s not complicated but I’ve been contemplating building my own FPV for a while but I was always worried what I need to get and I wanted to make sure I wasn’t buying garbage. This was the perfect video. I just ordered everything, so hopefully once everything comes in, it will all go together! I guess wish me luck and thanks again!

Rush Tank Solo tested good too. It did 1.4watt on the high setting but is a little more $ at $50. I have that one in my 7" long range quad.

      good to know, this was my first t-motor electronics piece and was disappointed. I'm hoping it's just a bug with the BMI270 and can get fixed in an update since it seems like 4.3 is what caused the twitch. The board came with 4.2.11 and flew fine, no gyro twitch. as soon as I flashed 4.3 or 4.3.1 the gyro got all screwy. Flash back to 4.2.11 and the gyro isn't even recognized lol.

      Did they fix the bidirectional dshot for RPM filtering on the H7 boards? I dont think so and H7 has no benefit at the moment on betaflight. Personally I`ll stick with f722 or even F405 with the BMI270 gyro

    Looking into building an fpv drone and this guide is super easy to understand and well detailed. Two questions I have though are: a) how much does it weigh? And b) what goggles/controllers does this build support?

    • @ejohnsonco08

      I do not have an answer for the first question but the build's VTX card supports all analog goggles and the radio receiver is compatible with all ELRS controllers.

    I am complete beginner and just purchased a drone kit from Ali Exp as I was trying to avoid the stress of choosing parts for my first build. The kit appears to have reasonable quality name parts however it comes with 1800KV motor. I note that other designs use 2400KV motors. I understand the KV is directly related to speed although torque is also a consideration. My question if 1800KV underpowered for a typical drone. I am happy to upgrade the motors if that is deemed to be necessary. I dont plan on any payloads but will provide additional sensors including GNSS and flow and lidar sensor. My plan is get some experience in building a drone, then I plan to move to fully autonomous AI drone build as a new build which is my main interest. PS. I do have a engineering background, but totally new to drones. So please dont be too hard on me.

  • @THEcucufate

    To the multiple peeps asking the same question about duration of flight time, and not getting an answer, it's bcoz there's no "set time" and you have to do some calculations. Google it, come on. lol. But basically it depends on flying style, then the formula to calculate your FPV drone flight time, you have to know three factors: Battery Capacity (in this bulld that's a 1550mAh 14.8V Lipo) , Battery Discharge and Average Amp Draw (the components total power draw which can fluctuate and be tricky to come up with ONE number that applies to all.) For these specific parts, and for practice if you're serious about building this, you should look up each parts power requirements and total draw when all parts are firing at max output, and reach a best-case-scenario. Dude has no time to answer the same question over and over, making these bomb ass videos that clearly take time and effort WHILE actually doing the builds, but the way he rocked it it's probably 6 minutes max. Remember this is FPV and for racing or performce, not the regular king of reco or photo drone flying, so getting even 6 mins out of this is REALLY awesome. Should not make a difference if you have 2 or 3 battery packs or MAAAKE your own. Google awaits. Hope this helps.

    OK, two weeks later... I have all the parts. My SpeedyBee order just sat there for 4 days after "expected ship date." I emailed, "Hey? Any idea on shipping?" and I had an email within a few hours. Suddenly, it showed shipped and had left SpeedyBee. It took 7 days, but I have it now. Well, I have all the parts for the drone itself. I still need to order the controller and goggles. In the interim, I bought a Technicans Ham Radio License manual to study for the Ham Radio test. I finished it last night, so going to test this week ideally.

    2. What happens when drone goes out of sight? Even if just behind a building for like 4 seconds? Immediately crash?
    3. Can you make a video of a budget fpv drone that has a gps chip and can turn back home after loss of transmission and/or rc power and/or push return home button. Me as a total noob like the idea of no need to be scared to lose it 😅
    4. Ah yes, this build. Max distance?

I know exactly what it is and build the skills for repairs because I’m sure there will be a lot! I like the Bluetooth for in the field tuning. I think il be building one of these, they look pretty good. Only question I got is if I want more speed/power what would need upgrading?
