Copying Stingy's tricks to break his V2 forged carbon frame

[@RADERFPV]

Give me 5 minutes with any frame, and I'll be able to break it. I'm a professional quad crasher that knows how to break frames. You have to hit stuff at just the right angle, it takes experience ;)

[@bludawg8588]

RADER FPV I think I’m training to be your apprentice?

[@RADERFPV]

@@bludawg8588 Ha ha ha, that's awesome👍

[@filiped7298]

I followed that break trick tutorial too. Nailed it first time 🤪

[@Hohmies86]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🏽

[@MaxBeamer]

Anytime Bardwell leaves his property it’s a hit! 😂

[@fadhilhashim]

I thinks this too

[@everysubonepushup]

@@fadhilhashim much grammar

[@PesterBotLoFi]

It's a hit regardless really. But this is way better content.

[@DeeboDeeJay]

probably one of your best videos this year. of the "non educational" type videos. Amazingly entertaining!

[@WeMakeLaw]

true

[@ArchmageAU]

And this is how you get better. Targeted practice pushing your boundaries. Great work.

[@mattbi11]

Stingey, at about 16:38 JB almost lands on the beam instead of looping it, that might be a cool trick if you can stick it clean! The first "power landing"

[@bodgyhacks]

Really nice to look at you guys practicing, failing, and succeeding tricks! Shows how it really is to learn to fly :)

[@flyguycinematic6030]

Better pilot or not I appreciate you two collaborating and testing out the new frame. I love these types of videos. Stingy you keep flying, Bardwell you keep making your KZbin you’re gonna learn something today videos. PS who brought up the backwards powerloop idea 👍🏻🤔🤣🤪

[@Gawl88]

Probably my favorite video so far! More like this Joshua, we love watching you fly!

[@twinturbostang]

We need carbon fiber GoPro's.

[@intradingwetrust]

Greater words have never been said

This is what FPV is all about to me! Having fun and keeping it interesting. Great video.

[@stingersswarm]

Gotta get it back under the second time. Lol That technicality gotcha.

[@djasynchronous7777]

that was great JB👏super humble, and Stingy, you guys are great together, thanks for showing 🤙

[@StacemanFPV]

Nice! And stingy was right, you came out a better pilot for sure.

[@RichMoore-tweakin7376]

Yall need to do more videos like this. After I stopped laughing through the 1st 5 mins, I realized how technically good you guys are. Super interesting to hear you guys talk tricks through. Loved this 1 💯🔥

[@ianprice2441]

Poor GoPro. That's a beefy frame. Nice tricks guys

[@jkpoynter]

Joshua, I absolutely love this video man. You should do more of these!

[@3-danything977]

So cool that what it is all about two buddy pushing eachother and having fun.

[@D3Fpv]

In the video, I heard you say something about the pads saving you quite a few times and if I’m not mistaken, stingy Said that he tapes his on. I was having trouble getting one of these to stick on the Acrobrat. I was cutting two of them and have to use at each half for each corner and I kept rubbing them off because there’s not a lot of surface. But on a 5 inch or a 6, or 7 there is plenty of surface for the adhesive to stick to. To solve this for myself, I took one and cut it in half which was small enough for my 163 mm and I took a pair of needle nose pliers and poked a hole through the center which was plenty big enough to stick the Zip tie through the middle of the foam and wrap it under the motor wire. After not losing any for quite a few landings, I actually incorporated that same idea on my 5 inch. By going through the middle and not on the bottom, even if I land on the pads with forward momentum, the zip ties are never touching the surface of the road or anything. The zip ties that I am using our only 1/8 thick by 4 inches long which is plenty strong enough and obviously cutting off the access.

[@J4NGL3]

What fun it is watching this one! Thanks guys. I'm inspired to get better. That was great!

[@slingitsideways]

Probably the biggest lesson I learnt when I started flying was EVERYONE crashes, no matter the skill level. So just go out, fly and enjoy the unique view we have of this world.

[@jeffreestylefpv5907]

I was sweating all stressed watching you try that last powerloop like I was flying !!!!!! lol

[@mikeoleksa]

Great video, JB. The fun after the small frustrations during the build has to make it all worthwhile.

[@musaka14]

Do more videos like that, that pure gold! Lots to learn!

[@imager09tube]

Getting pretty good Josh! Excellent!

[@ErgoFPV]

Thanks a lot, this was a real joy to watch! The frame held up pretty well indeed.

[@BelovedFPV1]

This was a great video Josh...Loved watching you try that last power loop...Sorry bout the GoPro...Stingy V2 held up nicely as expected..

[@reubenward2430]

Good to see you flying out and about enjoyed the vid

[@JTesoro21]

Ya, I'm sold! I got a Stingy V2 Standard frame coming in the mail this week... I need the forged now too. I'm currently running the Xhover Gapit, and love it. Pretty sure I'm going to love the True-X more for freestyle. Great vid!

[@randallbadgett4040]

A little different style of video and it was exciting and fun to watch. Had me on the edge of my seat a few times.

[@johnqfpv7127]

Nice flying Josh! Stingy is a great pilot and a good teacher. I would love to have been there.

[@oncrei]

I loved all this Atlanta crew visit and related stuff... You should go more often!

[@daveopie1234]

Very inspirational. I have a lot of room to improve my flying, so seeing Joshua also making mistakes makes me feel better.

[@JoshuaBardwell]

We all make mistakes including Stingy LOL.

[@lutzschabumm7080]

Hey there. I been working with plastics and have a good knowledge about PC (Polycarbonate). If the PV isn't prtected against UV-light, it will break after a few months. But if there was no Sun, it is just a bad quality. Maybe there is some recycled PC in there too. But the bending of those plastic is normal. If you will overbend those props, it will take a new form.

[@splugereport]

Loved this vid. Glad to see my fly-crash rinse repeat is natural:) starting to love the toothpicks cause they are cheaper to fix.

[@xxjef82xx]

Josh what a great series. I would love to see more build to fly.

[@furulevi]

2:24 Soo relaxed, cool, easy flying :)

[@andyhoughtaling6319]

Bardwell: "I gotta change props" Drone: "4 nearly perfect props"

[@vincents3334]

What a great video. I had a good time just watching. I feel much better about my crashing, know that you guys do too. Well, maybe on much harder moves.

[@jlarson42]

Awesome rippage, sweet locale. Stingy is a great copilot. 👍💖🤓

[@timothyciarlette8250]

Thanks Stingy and Joshua, that was so "DAMN" fun.

[@akera9625]

Was great and very entertaining! (better then reviews or builds) I think you should do this kind of series for all the signature frames out there!!! From build to crash! I look forward for some new one!!! Well done!!!

[@tombstonefpv9053]

Great job JB, those are some hard tricks to pull off. Now if they could just make a gopro as tough as Stingy's frame.

[@hrhodes2768]

Tombstone FPV maybe making another session would be a good start

[@KATchUL8r]

Stingy is awesome :) you and him have a great dynamic!

[@ax1573]

Awesome flying. That gopro 7 was fully toasted. Great job.

Joshua you are flying better then me now with that powerloop daaam

[@rklauco]

Fantastic video! Do more like this! Lots of fun and lot to learn :) Thanks.

[@ragor79]

+Joshua Bardwell You should store your props in zipper bags and push all the air out and they will keep the flexibility of the material MUCH longer. (the softener evaporates over time. the less contact they have to air the slower the softeners vanish)

[@Leafyfpv]

Stingy coaxing others to do great things, awesome "test" sesh... you guys out there makin moves!! Props!!

[@omhobby9481]

thanks bardwell I learnt something today😁 I need this kind of videos more

This was fun to watch. And it’s 26 degrees here so it’s all I got lol. 19:04 hilarious.

The reason Gopro stopped making the Session 5 lol... Kudos for such great frame and tutoring!!! I love you guys!

[@О.Ш-ь1щ]

About polycarbonate props: this material as most of the polymers absorbs water and becomes fragile (that's my practice knowledge of 3d printer owner). The only way to return flexibility is to dry the plastic in a fruit dryer or in the oven

[@dr07828]

So far, 5:40 minutes in, the best part about this video is stingy's reactions and comments.."Where's your gopro" lol.

[@xtkfpv5306]

A bit off topic but are the Stingy v2 arms reverse compatible with the V1 frame? My buddy is trying to find new arms for his Stingy V1 and is having a hard time finding them.

[@JoshuaBardwell]

You should reach out to XHover directly to get the definitive answer about that.
