Afterburner - Best Cinematic 5inch FPV Drone

[@lifoxstudios2140]

Just bought an Afterburner with Crossfire in the iFlight Shop! Really stoked what you guys engineered and even more curious how the tune and everything feels! Thank you for helping the filmmaking community creating even better FPV content. Greetings from Germany :D

[@GeKoFPV]

Would be great to have a frame kit only option. I’m sure there are professional and/or wannabe professional hobbyists that would prefer to add their own trusted components rather than an iflight stack. Great looking frame though

[@EllisvanJason]

I hear you, maybe down the road. The eleftronics is very good as thousands od drone use this fc and esc and the quality of the soder joint and built is better than I would do it. I agree it was different. Also we made a tune and all the testint based on those components and know if flies amazing. When people put there own electronics the tune doesnt fit and we cannot ensure the exlerience will be as good 🙏🤓

[@JoshHenriques]

This drone is going to change the filming game! Makes life so much better for video makers.

[@EllisvanJason]

if not we are F***** 😅 but I feel confident, cannot ask for a better partner. Lesgoooo🤝

[@jdrone]

nice to meet you. Very clear video. It's a very cool flight. Happy New Year^^

[@Tobiasmccabe]

Unreal drone and shots definitely buying🙏

[@rocket_5741]

love your videos, keep it up😆👍... i was wondering if clips of your videos can be used for videos on tiktok?

[@afterburnerrc6333]

Are you guys serious! Minus the O3 your talking $470 for a quad frame, motors and FC. I am guessing they are targeting a very specific market so in a limited run I can see the price being what it is.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

Over $200 for the frame if you minus out parts cost. Like $225

[@JoshHenriques]

@@divingfalconfpv4602 if the frame costs $100 that leaves $100 to pay for our design time, us building the drone, us tuning the drone and testing it. Do you not think that is a fair price $100 to do all those things? or should those be for free? probably around 7 hours work to do all that properly. so $14 an hour... thats minimum wage. I would say thats a very fair price.

[@creatorTWin]

Frame seems extremely overpriced when it resembles a $20 TBS source v in construction method.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

@@creatorTWin well think more $95 AOS UL7 with smaller center

[@EllisvanJason]

Guy guys lets take a step back. Firs of all its a premium product and we work on it for months so if I would have made the price it would be 300-400 more just as to covered the hours we out it. The reason we doing this is also for you as otherwise it would not be possibe. The fact that you get this drone for this price BNF with a sexy tune is not much.

[@ashers_workshop]

wow so cool! These kwads coming from Ellis and 2RAW are so amazing

[@Nico_Lehr]

Perfect Timing! I'm looking for a new drone

[@Maduk2008]

Hi bro! I'm having a bit of trouble understanding... The vertical-arm chassis is particularly well-suited to high speeds! Here we have a drone that's high on the ground, with a high frontal CX and ambitious kinematics... The solution obviously doesn't allow for much tilting... as it is, I really don't see what this machine has to offer that a racing drone or a Bus doesn't when it comes to "cinematic" filming. They would have proposed a hairy configuration with an even smaller center... yes... fast cruise drone... why not?

[@colibrifpv]

Would love to build one up if/when frame kit is released...

[@TheMaxmelner]

I wish they would make one with the new Walksnail 4k 😢

[@JoshHenriques]

It will fit this - but you would need to remove the O3 first

[@Editer38738]

You guys are becoming fpv gods Cheers from East knoxville

[@babang_des]

Yooooooooowwwwwwweeeee!!! lets goooo boyss!

[@EllisvanJason]

Omg Babang! Love to see you coming by :)

[@nko]

Can’t wait to get it in my hands 🙌🏾 But one thing, why don’t you put two antenna for the VTX? I know it is not long range but two antenna not the side would create a good redondancy. But maybe it is not relevant in your test 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@EllisvanJason]

Doenst matter. BOB57 has also one antenna before o3. It saves weight and when not flying crazy long range where orientation is soo crucial it doesnt matter as the output power remains the same

[@argentinaerialsFPV]

Look good! I dont know the durability, time to tested!!

[@markg7820]

Amazing Quad, Was a pleasure to fly and film with it!

[@EllisvanJason]

You guys did a sexy job up in the north! 🥰😇

[@nocturnofpv]

Doing great work there guys, well done and keep rocking 🎉

[@EllisvanJason]

Thank you so much 😁

[@ImperialArmour]

You guys really love bottom mounted packs lol..

[@EllisvanJason]

Amzing! It has advantages

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

Like AOS design arms

[@EllisvanJason]

Different, no need to copy, we believe in our own truss design ideas and the way we lock arms. Truss is a commen mecanical structure, otherwise all car manufacturer are the same as they all have 4 wheels 😅

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

@@EllisvanJason just saying it's like it. They were such a great idea. I really like the design.

[@af252]

460g weight isn’t great? I thought it would be significantly lighter than a 5inch

[@snviper]

Why would you think that? It is still a 5 inch.

[@JoshHenriques]

its got a lot of stuff packed into a tiny space, including a multi jet fused shell, a full metal cnc gopro mount. The drone is far more agile then a tradtional 5inch even though the weight is not lighter. The second you fly one you will see!

[@snviper]

@@JoshHenriques Do you know if there is a cnc piece for the gopro side? Or if not if someone makes that? The folding gopro metal brackets always develop play.

[@JoshHenriques]

@@snviperthere is a 3D print you can add to your GoPro stop stop those from wobbling. Or you can use a GoPro case.

[@schafer_thespaz1189]

egg-cellent

[@BowOneFire]

Looks interesting but its extremely heavy! Idk how it could be agile at 460g dry when thats double some 5 inch racing drones

[@EllisvanJason]

It is not a racing drone 😅 its a cinematic fpv drone. Also its agile because its 4 inch size body and all the weight is distributed along the centre. I hope it makes sense ☺️

[@RobertoCattaneon1]

Wow!

[@slimjimfpv7898]

When will it be available in Iflight EU Shop?

[@DanielJohnFPV]

Really interesting design - almost like a race drone. No CRSF/ELRS is a bummer, but at least an ELRS receiver isn't too expensive. I'd love to get my hands on a review copy 😍

[@JoshHenriques]

What do you mean no elrs/crsf? Those are included!

[@DanielJohnFPV]

@@JoshHenriques Oh, I see now. I misread EVJ's comment below

[@EllisvanJason]

Yes you can add as people have different requirements

[@eganeggzythornycroft1084]

Conformal coated from the factory?

[@qbanboy14]

can we user DJI FPV Controller 2? How easy is to waterproof for filming watersports (kiteboarding)

[@EllisvanJason]

No Crossfire or ELRS, DJI FPV controller would not work. We use custom antennas

[@ar0nis]

Has a better battery life with this design ?

[@EllisvanJason]

At high speed yes but the advantage is the tune we can put on thank to minimal vibrations

[@chrisbee5481]

210mm wheelbase is nowhere close to a 4". Racing frames are 190mm and 4" 175mm. It's just a little smaller than a 225mm typical 5". Just the body sqaushed for better aerodynamics. Surely it cuts the air better and true x performs best. Please release your 2raw 4" version via iflight.

[@af252]

How come it’s heavier than a 5 inch?

[@snviper]

What is the accepted universal weight for 5 inch? I have one that is 250g with battery and one that is 800g and some between and they all fly amazing for their purpose. It's meant to get good footage not be light.

[@Всесамоелучшее-ю3и]

Крутяк!!! Где купить такой коптер?!

[@justinbediako3155]

This vs bob 57 which one for which purposes ?

[@EllisvanJason]

Bob for versatlie batteries up to like 3000 for more long range and low camera angle. Afterburner for a compact design, super agile and faster 🫡

[@creatorTWin]

O3 $320 FC ESC stack $100 Motors $100 Over $300 for frame and small pieces? Failing to see where the value is at $900 Canadian - I am doubtful of the claims made and the added benefit of said claims 😅

[@EllisvanJason]

Absolutely as you forget a lot of things. The entire prototyping phase of months, labor coste, assembl, quality control, the shell in this material to look polished, props, a custom metal CNC mount, and the list goes one 😇

[@JoshHenriques]

Did a little bit of research for you, all prices in $Cad from GetFPV just so you can see how great this price actually is. Iflight F7 FC + Blitz 55A esc - $175 Iflight Blitz M10Q GPS - $57 Xing 2207 Motor x4 - $135 DJI O3 - $310 Frame - (lets assume same price as nazgul frame) $135 Total - $812 Retail Price - $912 That leaves Cad $100 to pay for the assembly, the design, the tune, the testing.... lets assume that takes 6 hours per drone. that works out at $16.65 cad dollars per hour..... this is exactly the minimum wage in Canada. So as you can see its actually not possible to make this drone any cheaper.... unless you find us someone who is willing to work for less then minimum wage and will do really high quality work. Please do a little more research before writing bone comments in the future...

[@creatorTWin]

@@JoshHenriques your maths is still close to $300 for a frame - you have been a little generous on some of your conversion rates as well. Also your the economy of scale is complete different with prebuilt vs one you build yourself so you can’t completely factor labour costs the same way - especially consider what their net cost is on parts. Just seems over priced and over hyped for what it is.

[@JoshHenriques]

@@creatorTWin I used todays exchange rate according to google. So if you cant get it build cheaper yourself why complain about the price?
