Hope your blades are ok!

Thanks - curious to see how it works for you.

Early UAVs were caught in nets. Fly it right into a Walmart Badminton net! Who needs landing gear and wheels

Unless your bird has landing gear, your going to prang that thing into the dirt unless you do one of those “butterfly with sore feet” landings.

Thank you! Awsome explanation.

Love the strobe light. Do you have a link? I’ve been searching for one. I have a swordfish as well.

There's room for one more. Just don't know where you would stick it. RC life after 47 years is still a passion. 63 in 2 months. I'm in the club.

There are never enough!

Totally agree love it too many LEDs are never enough Take care

What did you do with the old power distribution pannel in the bottom? (The one for the motors. I forgot it's name). I am looking at making a setup with the normal SB405 Wing.

I had those charging cables with the green led, I liked em

A power bank or OTG cable from my phone has been my go-to solution for the same thing. Cool tip, though, and it can double as a phone charger :-)

I was using a powerbank for the same purpose. The problem is that the plugs have finite insertions so I tend to use a fan with a battery. Also I have plastic caps on UBS's so it is an extra hassle. Also some new controllers can stop the power to vtx completely with a switch.

Cool tip my friend i guess if u use a 3.3 volt pad or a 5 volt pad u can do the same as well.., I have yet to put a gps on one of my quads but I plan on doin it on my next build...thanks for the tip 🫡 subscribed

There are a few options for this. They make RC switches that you can add to remotely turn off the VTX. Many FC include this sort of FC powerdown option nowdays too. Id look for this option on future builds. For existing aircraft that dont have a vtx power option you can use a USB fan also as an alternative. These included with your method are all good things to keep in the toolbox!

Even if you're only powering the FC over USB, the VTX is still transmitting. If you want to keep your VTX cool, just put Pit Mode on a switch.

on my plane i just plug in when im ready to fly

can i ask what frimware you are on fop the walksnail

I found there was no need for the ground wire, as it's a common ground with the feed to the esc. Hope this helps

Its an amazing plane to fly like its on rails . Looking forward to the maiden Take Care

No f-bombs were dropped in the making of this video 😅😊😮😅 don't think you're the only one that's ever put the props on wrong I have 10 of those quads and I've done it at least four that I will admit Take care looking forward to your next video

Great little plane looks like you got it dialed in take care

Great flight amazing FPV platform Take Care

it's awesome

Nice review and good ideas on rigging. Just got two Seawards 2006, a Tyee and a Vision both in excellent condition for $2K. Excited to try them. So well made.

First half of the music sounds like early pink Floyd.

i just wish i had a place like that to fly

WOW id love to fly there

VERY GOOD SIR

Link to that strobe ?

Great video. I have that same radio/gimbal. Great idea on the shoulder buttons. It’s a great radio. I did run into a bad card reader on the first one I got. Returned it and its replacement has been flawless.

So how far does the Baofeng bf888s receive and transmit? Thanks

I got this same one a month ago, bought the PEI plate right away and printed a spool holder that uses bearings that I just happened to already have. The filament is never taut so its pulls smoothly.

When I started printing I touched the plate alot with my fingers, and the oil is enough for things to not stick. Dishsoap and water occasionally is your friend!

How can I add a new frequency to my vhf radio?, for the same model.

Enjoy! I have had mine for about a week and love it!

Better play nice on the ice.

Where does the capacitor go to?

The trick with the heatshrink over the connectors would not work for too well for me for plugging into the flight controllers as the increase in thickness would make it a really difficult if not impossible.

i have a cell capacity checker kind of the same as the one you have there but mine is called a capacity checker (cost me about 5 pound )does that one start to ballance if you hold the type button for a few seconds ? i enjoyed the video thank you, am building a 48v pack at the moment 13s 5p but with videoing it for youtube and waiting on bits to arrive its taking its time ,im also about to attempt to remove my old solder from some cells i could do with using in another pack with spot welder ,i have subscribed

Super useful video for me as I’m planning to make my first battery pack. Many thanks.

I bought a spot weld unit and it just doesn’t seem to put a permanent/strong weld to the tin strip onto the 18650 so I have resorted to scratching the terminal up really good and soldering 18 or 16 gauge silicone wire

👍 interesting

Good idea is to add "real PIT" on VTX power line😉

I use a USB powerbank to power the flight controller in order to obtain GPS 3D by powering the GPS on a 4V5 pad and the VTX on a regular 5V pad that isn't powered by USB. So I wait till I'm ready to fly when notified by the INAV LUA script on my radio. But yeah I do use a fan when building and or testing video.

thank you very much ...

I’ve got an analog rush fpv max solo up front under the hole, I’ve jammed a 30 mm fan in the hole to aid cooling

Don't buy this FC it's crap, I had rx uart problems, servo outputs went bad after five minutes on the bench while testing servos. I moved the servo output to S6 from S4 and got the servo working again but then the motor output on S2 went bad. Believe me, I pulled the servos and ESC all working fine with a servo tester. I even swapped the ESCs on the header pins S1 & S2 the problem just moved from not running the right motor to the left motor. Total Garbage!

What is the make of your bungee lanyard on this radio?

Oh no! Im so sorry you fell through! I am glad you seem to be doing okay, I silicone conformal coated everything in my t1 just in case of rain but an event like this will also justify the decision, the thing that really sucks here is fpv is a chance to do crazy stuff without risking your body, sometimes it gets us anyways!
