Would the included charger need to have all 4 batteries plugged in or placed a certain order to work correctly? Just remembering that fractal charging board you needed to pin off the unused cells.
I'd really like to see the PWM elrs build in a plane, with some help in understanding how to get the sticks (4 channels) and flaps, and flight modes on a 5 channel device. Seems like I use 8-10 channels regularly on drones - leds, beeper, rate profile, turtle mode, etc.

As much I love the concept of 1S whoops I came to the conclusion that 2S is at least the best power to weight ratio for me. I just recently rewatched my older edits and compared them to the latest ones and it is pretty obvious that the extra weight plus power makes the whoop perform much better when thrown over obstacles f.e. Or it's just me who lost the ability to fly like I used to before I had to take a break. But I'll still get this Iteration of my favourite whoop, the Mobula7 âđ»đ

400mw vtx, ELRS, & 5+ minute flight time = a pretty sweet long range whoop! Bring on the toothpick!

One of the best whoops is even more amazing now. The price is really good too. Thanks for the video.
It really is!

Let us not forget how much this has improved since the original mob7 (which was my favorite). This is worlds apart...
Yes, definitely much better than what came out three years ago.
Just got into droning a few months ago and I love it
Welcome! Hope you are having fun!
Good morning Albert. Great review of pretty cool 75mm whoop. Happymodel has come a long way since my Snapper7. đđ€
Nice đ
Do a car and plane with the pwm receiver, I'm wanting to do one but want to see a long range fpv car

It would be super cool to convert this to a 1.6 or 2 inch toothpick, with some 1002 motors and larger props.
Awesome flying and review, Albert!!! đ
Pretty fun little quad! Seems to fly great!
Stay safe there with your family! đđ
