[@Subsisto]

An extremely well put together and informative video. Much respect to you. Subbed.

[@zjm89]

Thanks for the kind words

[@adityarao2827]

i agree you have earned anouther sub

[@rubenrivera1426]

Subsisto

[@corywilliamsmith]

yeah i member

[@WeAreAlphariuss]

With the exception of not knowing what the acronyms meant, holy smoke balls this was exactly what I was looking for! Especially with the required tools. Thanks for taking the time to do this!

[@ccachella]

you forgot to slam your temperature control soldering iron on the table

[@zjm89]

lol

[@AnimeStudioMotion]

thats funny lol

[@michaelde5620]

ccachella no on his mouth

[@barryfredrick2731]

🤣

[@barryfredrick2731]

No non no, gently set it down

[@grayfrog2]

Wow I was a bit skeptical on DIY FPV drone but you sir have made me want to buy and build!! I definitely want to see that video on how to setup a radio and everything else! Very good walkthrough better than any I've seen on youtube.

[@quinnbayless1366]

Thanks for the vid, I have been looking for this for a little while and enjoyed how informative it is. Thanks!

[@sulaiman49]

I'm subscribing and I'm just a minute in. I like people who have a different take on tutorials. love the way you show the parts. Keep up for work!

[@eeysi]

Great video, especially how clean everything is put together, nice and tidy !

[@leotuning]

The Best KZbin build quadcopter! soo clean install

[@quantumprojects5025]

I used this video to make my very first quadcopter... damn. So nostalgic. Thanks for making this great video!!!!!

[@jeremyrichards2761]

And props, and props, and props, a little bit more props. Haha! Great video. This is going to be super helpful for me when I build my fpv racer! Thank you.

[@saquanfields355]

the accessory pack you speak of that comes with the nylon standoffs for pdb and naz32 where did you get that from

[@lokeshdasnurkar9361]

its awesome video....! where's the updated video of controlling this mini quad copter?? how to control it..

[@joecachia2]

Hi Nice video. I have a cheapo SG906 drone that transmits to a mobile via WIFI. Now, If I had to mount a 5.8Ghz FPV combo like this ( and get myself goggles to match ) , can I power the VTX directly from the drone's battery ( assuming the voltage is within specs ) in order to avoid adding another supply ??

[@frostlife]

Which exact mount is he using at 11:14? I searched for "Vice Grip", but couldn't find the same one he's using.

[@hqgamer9922]

+frost desk vice or table vice. it has the word vice in it. it might be a bench vice.

[@gopib9624]

you are reach person in the wold u used all experience material well done!

[@bonzo4949]

If you wanted to put on 2205 2300kv motors with a 4 cell battery. What would you have to change other than the esc's to a 30 amp?

[@VictorGomes1]

The arrow on NAZE32 is not pointing forward, is that right? ( 25:35 )

[@bryancampbell9312]

Really nice job! What is the kit number? What is the resolution of the camera? I am assuming all the parts are available from MQB. Thanks!!

[@saikumarAerva]

Google document for build guide is missing, could you please share the part specification details.

[@danouski]

your tightening screws method is called kiddy cornering, but i'm not sure if I have spelled it correctly.

[@danouski]

maybe you learned it from skateboarding :)

[@rodrigosiviero2558]

Ive got this frame but can't assemble, the space between the bottom plates are huge, the m3 nuts doesn't reach the plate, so the arms are loose in between frames, what should I do?

[@rubenscheffer5724]

I really like this video. really good quality and nice background music plus some good explanations. keep it up!

[@zjm89]

Thanks Ruben!

[@MrDaxrowden]

and more props! the one thing no one told me.

[@itamarzuhovitzky7833]

?nice build i saw in the website only pre built zmr250 where i can buy a kit of the zmr250

[@3genprovid981]

Outstanding job man..very well put together and super informative..I seriously appreciate your efforts.

[@oskarjennische2490]

am i getting the cable at 10:36 with the battery? please answear

[@rbc725]

Is your Build Guide still available? It is not accessible on google doc. Thanks

[@BradyLanter]

Another great video! Thanks for your help man, without you I wouldn't have been able to get flying! I am a little concerned though about how your day was going when you recorded, throwing the parts and all, haha!

[@mohammadakbar32]

very informative and your act of throwing stuff made my day !

[@beaverslayer661]

Does that PDB have a built in lc filter because you're using one battery for the quad and fpv vtx and cam? I wouldn't ask but it really makes a difference in video clarity.

[@zjm89]

beaverslayer661 yes it does have an LC filter.

[@beaverslayer661]

Zachary Moore cool thanks

[@hasan3545]

hello, can you give me the full URL for the kit please, the URL in the description is not complete. Thanks

[@hogman2276]

Great video, FIRE THE DJ!

[@DBKTube]

Agree! Great video, but the repetitive music almost made be put a shoe trough the screeen.

[@bruhHhH2103]

PLZ reply hey man their are two links which is which for the kit also does the kit come with every thing you got or is something sold apart :) :) :) :) :)

[@weirdscience8341]

Wonder if could strip out my rodeo 150 and pop it into a carbon mini frame

[@_ninzz]

Hey, quick question, can this drone be program using python or node library for AR drone? Thanks!

[@antoniovalenciano1285]

great video, but all the stuff on your website is sold out! when will you restock?

[@TrapHouseFatty]

can you add a parts list and a start to finish like remote ? for starters

[@tswagz3341]

Where can I get Nylon Standoffs for this exact quadcopter?

[@kylian3399]

I'm busy putting together my quadcopter as well, but I forgot too order standoffs for the cc3d. do you think it will fly well if I mount my flight controller on top of the quad? most people put it in the middle but I can't because I only have some zip ties too mount it and the power distribution board has to be in the middle as well.

[@tedmosby9409]

dont i need a flight controller like naze 32 aswell as a power distribution board ?

[@corywilliamsmith]

Ted Mosby I'm so confused too haha. I know some PDBS are built into the board, just like this Naze 32 for instance... although I'm befuddled about the antenna on Naze

[@Ayeohx]

Thanks for the video! Going to be super useful when I get a kit.

[@BtownFlyer]

What not gonna throw the soldering iron on the desk?

[@jakegawreluk2964]

How do you plan on flying with zero camera tilt?!

[@khangduongtuanan1738]

are the standoffs come with the frame or you have to buy it ?

[@mr.towers2290]

Nice man! any particular reason why you use latex gloves?

[@Elad_fialkov]

I CANT GET IN TO THE KIT WEBSIDE

[@Harry-jk9pg]

I've got a $10 soldering iron, will that do

[@WayneSoBlessed1]

I think you liked slamming things at the beginning of the video lol!!

[@bobanmunja]

What is the biggest size that you can use on that frame?

[@gamingisnotacrime]

where is your reciver? do you use cc3d board?

[@IGNSLOwner]

When is the second video coming out? I just started builing your kit, but now I don't know how where to get the settings file and how to set up the naze with the settings file etc.

[@zjm89]

+IGNSLOwner Should be finished this weekend, just need to edit the content now. Check the Build Guide, it should help. docs.google.com/document/d/1G_ewbikGwA-d3sIYkCED01LQIPUomq6PNIU93gXwny8/edit

[@MathieuDuponchelle]

+Zachary Moore Which week end ?

[@zjm89]

hello, check the build guide PDF for now. It goes over cleanflight configuration.

[@MathieuDuponchelle]

Sure, that is nice, but what of the second video?

[@zjm89]

+Mathieu Duponchelle This should help, kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH7dpamjfLZskJY

[@kurtg5645]

someone plssss tell me where can I get a scissors in 20:28 ! i really want to buy one!!!

[@p.chuckmoralesesquire3965]

fiskars micro pruning snips - you can get them on amazon, walmart, meijers

[@kurtg5645]

justin vaughn finally！！ Thanks a lot!

[@haydnholder7090]

Why are the motors off set like that? (I've never built a quad and first video about it Lol)

[@dapetrud2387]

Nice video but can somebody give me a link of a video that can tell me how all this electronic of a race quad works??

[@joedannunzio7936]

Thanks good video I am building my first racing drone and this was a big help.

[@Anthony-cr8dw]

do the motors come the way they look in the video?

[@FlorinCalisthenics]

does it fit if I put the parts from the hubsan h501s drone?

[@essentials1016]

where is the receiver

[@rigobertoaladuena6282]

When will the kits be back on your site

[@pauliether.c.guy.3349]

I love your Channel. I found this video very Useful in building my first FPV 250 drone just like the one in the video. By the way I subbed as well.

[@samhuhta6077]

I bought your kit and my ESC broke. you are always out if stock and I can't find ut anywhere else. please help

[@darkshadowsx5949]

it's interesting to see how others build theirs. Your process is quite different than what I been seeing. The xt60 cable took 10 minutes to solder on because my soldering iron is only 40W, and couldn't heat up the solder through the thick wire. lol 60W+ is probably best for that. I also put the plastic screws on the other way because I like it that way. That and most people put the ESCs on the arms. You also have extra weight in wire than needed. ;) The reason to build though is to build it how you like. (Thumbs up. )

[@darkshadowsx5949]

lol probably.

[@amarnathkurmapu831]

Can u tell me wts the size of the big screws

[@mtsmith49]

Awesome video, thanks for the time to go through everything!

[@Aweburn82]

Part 2?? The set up and configuration pls Good video thx

[@FlorinCalisthenics]

can I put the parts from a hubsan h501s drone?

[@itsmehere4703]

Love the way you portrayed it! Good video skills too. :) Keep it up, subbed. :D

[@Bubbmann]

If black is regular-threaded and silver is reversed, then I'm pretty sure the "self-tightening" motors were put on backwards. You literally put the motors on so that the motors could unscrew themselves. I'll bet the thing flies fine, but still.

[@bobedward9633]

What transmitter and receiver should i use :) Great Vid

[@zjm89]

Taranis X9D without question. Best radio on the market, and affordable too! I like the new XSR Receivers

[@syrupgupta41]

Hey I got a drone from your website and I'm really confused because I'm new to this. Do I solder the Ubec or not and what do I do if I don't want to solder the fpv to the pdb how can I run energy from the main lipo to the drone and the fpv?

[@zjm89]

+blaze sword Hey, check the old Build Video, or the Build Guide here, docs.google.com/document/d/1G_ewbikGwA-d3sIYkCED01LQIPUomq6PNIU93gXwny8/edit

[@syrupgupta41]

+Zachary Moore where do i solder the fpv power wire on the pdb if the pdb I received is the basic green one, like the one in your old video. What do I do with my fpv if my pdb is like the pdb from the old video?

[@zjm89]

+blaze sword page 19 and 20 in the build guide I just linked.

[@syrupgupta41]

+Zachary Moore My naze32 is acting weird and im getting really frustrated. Once i had everything done and was ready to use baseflight, i plug the naze32n in to my windows computer. I get absolutely nothing. The naze doesn't light up and there are no sounds. So then i tried unplugging things off the naze and decided to plug the drone in with the battery, only the UBEC lights up. The naze doesn't make a sound nor does the fpv. What do i do?

[@BurnastyProd.]

Do you need to program it in base flight

[@la_bassist]

Build guide URL doesnt works. Can you fix it? Im intrested a lot

[@trump3075]

Bro playlist is popin. Thanks for this. Subed

[@sethblumke9716]

I am thinking about buying but how do I program or whatever

[@syrupgupta41]

Hey man the drone I ordered from you is still not working I have no idea what to do at this point and I am so utterly frustrated. My naze32 is acting weird. Once i had everything done and was ready to use baseflight, i plug the naze32n in to my windows computer. I get absolutely nothing. The naze doesn't light up and there are no sounds. So then i tried unplugging things off the naze and decided to plug the drone in with the battery, only the UBEC lights up. The naze doesn't make a sound nor does the fpv. I even sautered the fpv like you instructed. What do I do?

[@zjm89]

Hello, can you email me so we can handle this issue :)

[@syrupgupta41]

+Zachary Moore what's your email?

[@zjm89]

blaze sword [e-mail]

[@chuckybrenaire6023]

hi, what brand of soldering iron your using? thanks

[@bryancampbell9312]

When will part 2 be ready?

[@s16non]

what radio system you plan in using??

[@theearl3422]

Those DYS 1806 looks different.. are those new versions?

[@zjm89]

Yes, they have Counter threaded shafts to allow for self tightening prop nuts.

[@jazperruedas8114]

what do you called the first circuit board??is it the flight controller??

[@Oz_Gnarly_One]

Dipper's Hat it's a PDB which stands for Power Distribution Board. It's purpose is to make it easier to connect all your ESC (electronic speed controller). Some models also have filtering built in.

[@ltamborrell1]

Hi Zachary, are there any cheaper options for the motors? Right now they’re at $16 each

[@Breadslinger]

Can u write down the list of parts u used in this video!!

[@kristinamat9837]

where the maiden flight video? I really wanna see it

[@Eibegruss]

So the kits on your website are not build together when i order one?

[@zjm89]

Some are now, check out the Tyrant 180.

[@tyte90]

Awesome video!! This is the ZMR250 frame?

[@FRZJE]

yes it is ;)

Hey could you please re-stock your Jabberwockey 180 Kit, I'm really looking forward to building it. Great Video :)

[@infamousgarage4900]

sorry for the dumb ques but what is the naze32 used for?

[@infamousgarage4900]

and also what was the 5v connection for u said was not necessary

[@FRZJE]

+Orlando redston it is the quads brain, it controls everything

[@brandonraphael5809]

Hey man, thanks so much for this, really helped me get into quadcopters and I had a lot of fun building it! :)

[@zjm89]

Glad to hear that!

[@KillaSwagSGOD]

Can you list all the parts used in this video I would like to make this drone build

[@rizi0396]

LastxKing go to the mini quad bros website and you can purchase it.

[@quantumprojects5025]

Yeah it's a kit

[@Dilipkumar-xm3vh]

What's the range of fpv and transmitter and receiver

[@Vasuuuuuuuulineeeeee]

is that an 250? or 210? can tell through video

[@drox8262]

Great Video but the Build Guide link does not work could you fix it plz:)

[@jojak19]

hi, where find names every parts? thx

[@easy_3d]

Great video.very detailed and informative.

[@SubrataDas-sj9nd]

Bro plz launch the part 2 video as soon as possible

[@lukemartin2310]

what pdb did you use?

[@eastcoastcaptures]

whats it like to have a racing drone i always wanted one but my parents dint have that kind of money so i never had one😢

[@Oz_Gnarly_One]

advance player they aren't expensive. It's the radio and FPV gear that can get pricey if you want really good stuff.

[@kristiangarnett4615]

Dude, awesome vid! I'm about to buy my 1st quad racing kit but what frame should I go for; carbon fibre or HDPE?

[@Oz_Gnarly_One]

Illdogz from what I've read fibre ones are stronger in a crash.

[@Delorean29]

Have you exactly name on 12V & 5V plate?

[@Cahaya_Iman87]

when you add the l.e.d lights?
