H guys, nice to finally see the disco on your channel! Fun fact about the earbuds - it was my find (not invention) and first trappy and his guys laughed at me, but than they said "well, its the only thing that really works (gets rid of jello)". However thers one downside to the earbuds: if its cold, they are stiffer and transfer some jello. Later I got some sort of super gelblock - check this vid to see what it does: TBS Discovery / GoPro 3 Black / best Antivibration with Gelblock!!! (uncut, raw 1080p60 RCSchim) Greetings, rcschim

It's really cool that you guys were able to review this! It's a pretty comprehensive little multirotor, especially for FPV. I know we heard David's pros/cons about it when he discussed his thoughts with him, but it would be nice to see/hear what he thinks about it after flying it as well.

I just got to say this, all those who are saying this is a scam and their $150 quad can do the same, you really cant even compare. TBS is making it look professional and use good components, i mean where are all the wires? Oh yea, they are all integrated into the frame along with osd, voltage regulator, receiver pins...Its just meant to be more high quality and you cant even compare your $150 dollar quad to this.
@p5y4n1d310 жыл бұрын
I can spend 100 at HK or on Ebay and on frame, voltage regulator, osd and KK controller, 140 gets me a controller far superior to the naza, the genuine apm 2.5, 150 worth of speed controllers and motors, 450 for a fatshark system receiver and transmitter from HK and throw on a top notch 2m accuracy gps for 80$, $100 on brushless gimbal and... wow, I have a far superior multi-rotor/drone including fpv goggles for about $1100 with APM 2.5 and under 1k with KK and you have everything this has for far less than $1500... plus if I have a crash I won't have to donate an organ to repair the thing :)

Brent Cromwell Everything you just stated is true(buying everything cheap from hk, some can compete with the parts on tbs stuff, some not) But trappy has got to make money, hes not just going to sell them to make no profit. I sound really tbs fanboy but I probably wont every buy a tbs arf or ready to fly because half the fun is building the craft. But for those who want a ready to go craft for either professional purposes or just a solid craft that doesnt have more videos of it falling out of the sky than it flying (dji s800:P), then this is in the market for that person.
@TeamBlackSheepFPV10 жыл бұрын
Brent Cromwell all the items you named are compatible with the TBS DISCOVERY. So, you can buy a frame with our OSD, which doesn't cost much more than the alternatives you named. Then you can slap on a flight control of choice, cheap speed controllers and motors, etc. and end up with a proper frame. The sets are a different story. Our sets are here to give you a no-grief setup, and as a company we rather focus on high quality brand items which will obviously cost more. there is no reason that you can't save money buy sourcing stuff from the knockoff places, though. And also, please keep in mind that TBS maintains an excellent after-sales service, which your ebay shops and other alternatives certainly do not.

This quadcopter seems to get the most publicity, though I personally think there are better quadcopters out there in terms of frame and/or camera dampening (those with dirty/clean frame parts e.g. QAV series, and those with hanging dampened camera mounts e.g. Eyefly). Even in TBS' own videos, vibrations seem to be an issue. If I remember correctly, in the 1st Amsterdam and the Brazil video are examples. Other than that, it's a nice frame, and I like the way components can be conveniently integrated into it and there's loads of resources to base your build on.
@TeamBlackSheepFPV10 жыл бұрын
these issues were back in the days ... with the "TBS LOVESEAT" and the new 900kV2 motors there are very few vibration issues. There are several advantages to having the camera and battery hard-mounted to the batteries, which is why we have taken the "hard way out" to get it right.

The TBS Discovery frame is by far my favorite quad platform. Is and always will be an awesome rig, very well thought out all the way down to the voltage controlled distribution in the frame. I have found that, in my case, my setup flies great with two matched sets of XOAR Precision Pair Beechwood Propellers For multirotors on a set of SunnySky 2212-13 980KV motors makes this one of the smoothest flying ships in my fleet.

@joedockstader134710 жыл бұрын
easy? that's certainly up for debate. higher quality? nope. sorry, but these things are amazingly high quality. almost all the circuitry is built into a single board, and it looks extremely professional. ridiculously less expensive? sure, my $200 quad I built from hobbyking stuff works fine, but it's nowhere near as stable as this, and looks like an accident in a wiring factory. something of this quality and with components this nice (like the naza for example) would cost at least $700 to $800 to build, not including the time it takes to build (probably at least ten to fifteen hours for something this advanced and reliable). and also, not everyone has the skills to build something like this. and for those people, this is a damn good product. quit your bitchin.

Hi there flite test! I love to see your videos as always! Regarding the issue you had with the barometer, it could have been something to do with light interfering with it. It is usually worth putting black electrical tape over the left side of the Naza lite flight controller as otherwise if sunlight hits the left side the quad will drop fast (This is why the naza v2 has a black case). I don't know if this was your problem or not, but I noticed you hadn't done the tape mod and thought that it could be the problem. Hope this helps!

Just thought I'd share my opinion as a noob. Expensive is relative. Laugh all you want but I spent almost $4k USD on a DSLRPros Phantom Kit. Yes. A. Phantom. Kit. Although I immediately knew that I wanted to go bigger and better, I do not regret the purchase. Compare that to the prices being thrown around here and I must look like an idiot. But I'm having fun. I really dislike the almost elitist commentary I find in this community just like the PC vs Mac flame wars. I'm new to this hobby and it would be nice to see helpful rather than disparaging comments. I like Flite Test because they're so friendly. If you guys want to get even cheaper prices then be nice to the noobs. You get more of us the better off you'll be. Try and think of it from our perspective, I did a lot of research but this hobby can be very intimidating for people who don't have your experience. Like myself. Good job Flite Test and TBS for being such positive and community building forces. I'd love to spend my money with good folks like you who clearly care and would give me good value.

Despite the cost it's been hugely reliable and robust within limits and my go to fpv rig. The support following it from tbs and the lab is very diverse, being my first quad ever! I would definately recommend for serious and noob fpvers. It's the quad that well, Never stops giving! Go get one and warm up your irons :)

@katanamd10 жыл бұрын
Acro is meant as in a non auto leveling flight mode. It will fly like a normal helicopter. If you tilt it and let go of the sticks it will stay there. Acro is also sometimes call either rate or manual mode. In auto level mode (Attitude mode), when you let go of the sticks it will always recover its self to a level position. Some controllers (Like the Naza) also have a barometer (Altimeter) that helps dampen out height while in auto level as well.
