Quadmula said it's pronounced: 'Quad💲Mula' Like Money! 😎
That said, I just picked up this frame at the post office today, and the price is absolutely worth it. The carbon is *CLEAN* …a thing that many frame cutters have seemingly forgotten how to do. No carbon residue, even when wiping with alcohol. No black dust, at all! They say they will send a spare arm, they sent me two spare arms. 3D printed TPU parts included are a big time bonus for me, since I have not yet bought an FDM printer. There has been a lot of thought and care put into this frame, and just as much thought and care in choosing parts to ship with it, and in how they ship it.
Fantastic Job, Quadmula!
Great vid Bacon. Now I'm off to a good start 😅
Thank you, and happy building!
Just bought this frame, can’t wait
I really hope you enjoy it!! It is still my daily driver, and still does a great job even after a bajillion crashes, lol.
Thanks for such an informative video mate! I have just ordered this frame to do a premium build with the 03 AU. Love your work BN! 🙏👌❤
I really hope you enjoy it!! I am still running this frame as my daily driver as I have had so much fun with it.
love the tpu solutions! Price is spot on! Great video mate👍🙏
Yeah I think their TPU designs are really really good, and the price is cheaper than some things out there for sure. Thank you so much for checking it out!!
It may be a premium price, but really its a great deal and still a few bucks cheaper than other premium frames
It is for sure not the most expensive one, and it does come with a ton of features for the money! I mean.........the Apex is a thing, lol
@@BaconNinjaFPV haha yeah I bought the Apex for more money and less features 🤣
@@BaconNinjaFPV apex is old outdated but still good . But considering other frames on the market apex is not go for me . At least . I have this F5 frame from September :)
I had my pc dictate it, said it like how you say it so you're good 👍
heyyyyy, now that is using your noodle!! I didn't even think of that one!
I just ordered the 3" Split and looking forward to the build. Just hoping you would consider the Speedybee Master HD our quad of the year. I can't friggin' wait for the snow to leave so I can get out and fly. It has a couple of interesting features, I'm not sure if they are more sales gimmicks including an 03 heat sink built into the frame and a couple of different rubber pads for your flight stack. Thanks, Bacon!!
I sure am considering that one! Now that CNY is over, I plan on seeing if they want to send me one to look at. The only real issue is having enough budget to actually build one out with parts worth having, lol. I have been very very very tapped for FPV budget lately and it may be 3 or 4 months until I can build another full size quad again. I think the heat sink is a pretty cool feature, and I am not sure how I feel about the isolation pad but it is something I have thought about trying more than once.
I would love to own that frame... The Split Five though...
Well, I am planning on giving some of them away early next year so keep an eye out for that and hold on to as much luck as you can find!
What’s up Bacon, great video bro, I was wondering if you gril it would it taste better 🤣looks like a great frame. But for now I’m gone stick to my glide.
Stay safe and merry Christmas friend
Everything tastes better over an open flame! I hear good things about the glide, but haven't tried much from FPV cycle other than the motors. Maybe some day I will get the chance to try one out. Merry Christmas to you as well bro!
Quau-la (pronounced Koala - silent d and m)...im kidding
I will agree that is pretty hard to innovate on something that has a stable design for a while now but I'm not going to lie, it's a really nice frame and very well thought out.
lol, I think Axis Flying has that name on lock already :p Yeah, there isn't much you can do to disrupt the basics on frames any more in this kind of size. Now micros, that market has lots of room since there are still plenty of ways to get the most out of it and weight saving is super impactful. This one is really well thought you, and you can tell how much time they put into it for sure!
+1👍 💪
grommet on TPU is interesting 🤔
I really like the idea of it. So many ripped up TPU parts I have had to re-print after crashes or a ton of use, lol.
@@BaconNinjaFPV fwiw, i do use nylon washers on goPro-mount-to-frame
I need them to go back in stock...or at least f5 split mini and f 3
Maybe dumb question: props are in the view in this frame correct? I got the normal f5 but don’t think that’ll matter ha
not a dumb question at all! Yes the props are in view since the frame has the camera set back in a normalish place on the frame. Most of the ones which don't have props in view are either pushing the front arms back into a deadcat layout or sticking the camera way out front where you are going to whack it every time you crash. Personally, I would rather have props in view and keep my camera in one piece.
@BaconNinjaFPV Mr. Ninja, what did you do to fit a SpeedyBee F7 V3 stack into your F5 Split? Did you just get longer stack screws, or take the ESC heat sink off or something? I almost want to de-solder those nice connectors off because this fit is TIGHT!
it is absolutely a TIGHT fit. I had to cut my gummies down and then skip the TPU caps. I went with some standard M2 nuts on top which work pretty well to hold it in, but there isn't any room left for a single thing. I asked QM about it and they said they designed it for low profile stacks, but so many of them are just as high as the SB.
@@BaconNinjaFPVOk, so after playing around with the stack fit, removing the heat sink, and running all the wires under the ESC with the stack backwards, I have to say that this is the absolute best flying quad that I have ever piloted.
Thanks for shilling this one!
Looks like dope frame will it fit 03 unit?
Lol just had to keep watching 🤦🤦 sorry
lol, I snuck it in there on you!
Have you flown the AOS 5” frame? I’m comparing the two atm.
I have, but I need to pick up an O3 compatible version of it since it has been a while. It is for sure one of my line up frames for the 2023 freestyle build!
what color of grteen tpu is that i love it
I am not sure, but I am going to ask them because I really do like it too. Whatever it is, it sure does make nice prints!
Does somebody know how I could add a 20x20 to 30x30 adapter plate to this stack on the siren f5 mini? I want to use a kiss ultra and the kiss ultra mini isn't out yet. Would I just get shorter m2 screws to go through the press nuts and then mount the adapter plate to that, then use the included screws to do the 30x30 stack on top?
I can take a stroll around thingiverse and see what is out there! I haven't needed one in a long time, but I remember finding a couple on there that were pretty good.
Can you tell me how wide the rear standoffs are?
Sure! There is a 15mm gap between the rear standoffs and they are 20mm from the center of each hole apart.
Going to list the drone I am building need your community help to finish it.3.5 inch frames have two. Have a stack and DJI air unit. Need motors
I would recommend something 16mm and up. Honestly the Emax EcoII 2004's that i am running on my 3 inch are pretty amazing and at a great price point. They would be even better with a slightly larger prop like a 3.5"!
Bacon frame.... should cover the arms with vinyl of a bacon. im recon handpainting props would be to expensive ROI ^^
are you thinking about a 10" project in the future? reason id want one is to aid redcross dropshiping firstaid kit. mavic sure could just ad a drop hinge but its just not the same ^^
lol, I actually realllllllly want Gemfan to do a run of props like they did for winter a year ago with screen printed snow flakes on them....but with bacon strips as the blades!!! Too bad Gemfan has no idea who I am and no reason to find out :( I absolutely do want to at least fly and review a 10" at some point, it is on my bucket list!
"Pan head screws"
"Tapered screws"
Please use the correct terms of these screws... countersink screws and button-head screws.
Welcome to RC 😄
lolol, you got me! I am honestly surprised nobody said this sooner...but that Is what I get for shooting an hour and a half worth of video with no script. I like to keep it free form for the most part, and after about 30 minutes terms start to jumble sometimes.
Sooo I'm close to finishing my quad and bought the wrong motors 🤦🏾
ooof....I hate when that happens!!! Last time I ordered motors that didnt fit, rather than buying new ones I just drilled the frame out and stuck those suckers on there, lol.
Quadmoney
lol, yeah I think that VitriFly got it right when he took a look at this frame and I should have watched that video first!
@@BaconNinjaFPV he lives close to me... I haven't gotten to fly with him yet though
so iguess it will be switching from mark5,,,heheheh
I am going to keep the Mark 5 pro in the line up....but I don't think it stands a chance against the others I have to look at, lol.
zang
Coming from the king of zang, that means a lot!
@@BaconNinjaFPV bro you killing it. Keep it up homie
the frame is nice, the m2 stackscrews are pretty gay. And they wíll bend!
Frame is a 5 out of 10. Overpriced meh frame. The perfect frame is AOS5 O3 frame $69.
Everything has its ups and downs for sure, and the AOS line is very very good. It will absolutely be the perfect frame for some pilots, and others will have a different opinion on it...everything in FPV is so subjective based on individual need and desire, lol.
im going try stealing that tpu lock nut idea 🦝
You totally should! Won't be too hard to make in an M3 size either.
