[@DroneSupremacy]

Go Big or go HOME! 🤣 🔥

[@patrickpendergast898]

Turn your crap music down. Can’t hear you talk or the drone.

[@lynsmith1096]

Thats 1 hell of an FPV Drone. Good video Mike, .

[@RGMGFitness]

Amazing build guys! Can't believe Dani's only 14 putting quads like this together...I'm sure you didn't do any 360 degree loops around yourself when filming with this *MONSTER QUAD* . Thanks for sharing...that's one incredible piece of hardware.

[@DroneSupremacy]

I went a bit close to us at some point but decided not to include the footage ;)

[@RGMGFitness]

@@DroneSupremacy I hear ya (gotta set a good example).

[@kulpreetkaur9926]

Absolutely love it 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@aaronunruh3509]

Love the cinematic intro

[@TriniWeekes]

bro!! you are my goto guy when i am ready for FPV experience. lol amazing

[@DroneSupremacy]

Go for it! You won't regret it :) Also - DM me on Instagram if i can help with something.

[@mimmotesento1446]

Fantastic but you should run the motors in the opposite direction because during the take off dirty the camera lens, fantastic drone 

[@KardosoMedia]

What a beast! Nice Mike!

[@urbinlv]

Couple of questions that has not to do with the drone. What brand or kind of jacket is the one you wearing? The military one and what kind of back pack is that and where to find them ?? Thanks in advance.

[@DroneSupremacy]

The jacket brand is Calliope and the backpack is Lowepro ProTactic BP 450 AW II :)

[@urbinlv]

Thanks man.

[@urbinlv]

I looked and this is an Italian brand and only sells in Europe lol. I’m gonna check at Burlington for the American version 🤣🤦🏻🤦🏻🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thanks brother and keep it with the videos we like them.

[@Quadcopterguide]

nice Mike! 12S... wow.. Can't afford those ESCs lol :) That blue-ish background looks a little familiar haha. Hope you guys are well!

[@chriscottell6854]

So cool. Keep the videos coming

[@DroneSupremacy]

Will do Chris! Thanks for watching :)

[@movingart4549]

A M A Z I N G

[@TonysTravel]

Wow this is really a Monster

[@DroneSupremacy]

Indeed!

[@rlamontsmith]

Great video, Mike! Love the noise it makes when you put it through a turn - quality! You definitely need to get yourself one of these, and give it the digital camera it deserves. 😜

[@jrbees929]

**Fly Sony Fly!**

[@spyez_fpv8576]

Let’s see the Sony fly 👍🏼

[@jeramboo8511]

Lets fly expensive stuffffff

[@srqTagle]

Can you help me out? I notice a wobble during hovering and cruising, motors are tight, props are tight, FC is secured enough to limit vibrations. The FC is a Kakute F7 HDV, are certain FC better for x class drones? Like a BrainFPV Radix?

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

Haven't been able to tune it out.. add P & I.. Bigger drones are harder to tune. I've had issues but mine isn't a great build

[@srqTagle]

@@divingfalconfpv4602 Yeah, it’s better. J-True at UAV Tech had some good stuff on PID and it’s relation to each other and it’s relation to the size of the drone. The default PID are made for a 5 inch 6s quad, so anything on the extremes whoops and Macro quads need adjustments. He recommends tuning in the order of D P I, some might think PID since that is the order we are used to seeing. So from the defaults, raise D first and think of the D as Dampening rather than Determ, then raise P and I in a 1:1 ratio. Think P as Pushing rather than Proportion. Also I term is usually what causes the wobble in bigger drones, if I term is too high relative to the P. So I’ll get it locked in soon.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

@@srqTagle yea I lowered my I term then been slowly raising D to find limit. UAV tech preset the d was too high and I got runaway. So now raising it slowly. I did raise my P and I a little to try stop the slow low throttle wobble while Im tuning lol I took a drone not meant to be a 8" and made it a 8" lmao 🤣 PS yea I'm doing D first then I'll do P.

[@srqTagle]

@@divingfalconfpv4602 Oh shit, thanks for the heads up.

[@2PaCallypsse]

Amazing drone !

[@yervantklendjian3291]

Amazing

[@intillanes]

That's crazy. Great video.

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Looks really cool

[@IslaVision3]

Maquinon 👏👏👏🤘😘

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Really insane drone

[@davidanderson6222]

Los would be a piece of cake with this one. Lol

[@nathanminten]

You built this in analog? You MANIAC!

[@7996hobguy]

This video came out a year before the DJI O3.

[@CoLiC2]

What is the flight time with those batteries?

[@josephri92]

What a beast and experience 😅😅

[@РоманДзюбак-ь5м]

nice, good job!

[@DroneSupremacy]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@MrEddieNunez]

WOW! What a beast! Are you mounting a RED camera to this rig? LOL.

[@DroneSupremacy]

I don't own a RED but who knows... :)

[@AlexCastignani]

a beast indeed!!!

[@MIGUEL-FPV]

hello friend I have a problem I just assembled 2 xclass 13 inc one in 12s and another in 6s and the two drones shake a lot it is unstable you have an idea please if you know help me with some advice

[@droneready8278]

Very nice....make the Sony fly!!🤟🤟🤟

[@JennaCee]

OK, Mike - awesome video and what a beast of the drone. And the next thing, I see with your progression, you'll be getting a pilots license and you'll be in the pilots seat of your homemade drone!! And yes, let's see the Sony fly!!

[@DroneSupremacy]

Imagine if that actually happens one day 😅

[@reddyairfpv]

Great! What top speed of this quad?

[@Timber81]

Awesome content! I am building an X currently. Doing some research as I'm building a Big Dog from scratch for a Search Drone for rescue work. Thanks for some great input Man!

[@gordonmajor122]

I definitely want to see the Sony Fly that would be serious for sure! From Canada Hamilton Ontario

[@wackywezfpv9335]

Very nice, how much paid tuning did you have to carry out, and yes let’s see more vids

[@PikaChaChing]

Mike! What song did you use in the beginning? It's epic!

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Great video nice information

[@sherifxm]

I really enjoyed this video; I hope you do some interesting things with the rig.

[@DroneSupremacy]

That's the plan!

[@sherifxm]

@@DroneSupremacy Nice to see the airframe I designed years ago being put to use.

[@Graeme758]

I've just come back to rc after a break for some years and I'm amazed to see how these quads are considered so unusual. A quad with with 13 inch props was not at all unusual back in the day, I have a Tarot Hex, sat folded on a shelf for 8 years, that I have just converted to a quad for endurance. Carbon arms, carbon plates, 560 kv motors, all I am doing is upgrading the APM FC to a Matek F722 and trading the individual ESCs for a 4 in 1 and it's as up to date as any 'modern' X class. Maybe not competitive in comps, would need a motor change for that, but not even close to $1600. Pick up a Tarot on ebay for less than $200, upgrade for another $400.

[@DroneSupremacy]

Oh no, It's just unusual for me, I know they've been around for many years but I just started FPV around a year ago so I hadn't seen one before.

[@АтанасКръстев-л3у]

How fast is the drone?

[@nieograniczony1]

lets this sony flight! :)

[@Sleeperknot]

Is it legal to fly it in your country?

[@k1ortia]

What are the flight times like on these beasts?...🤔

[@xxxXXXCH04XXXxxx]

3 mins, lol

[@ammoretuo]

What is its flight time?

[@georgitushev]

You are talking about Ilko Iliev(Bulgaria)?! Friend of mine :)

[@DroneSupremacy]

Точно той! 🙌🏼

[@admercs]

Payload capacity?

[@dronezone7451]

Can you share the tune on that xclass please

[@andriy1000]

What's the max speed?

[@elyodeel]

Interesting that the dvr says "acro" instead of "air." Did you fly this quad with air mode off?

[@DroneSupremacy]

It's always "Acro" on all of my drones, it's never Air? So i don't really know. Air Mode is always ON on all quads.

[@elyodeel]

@@DroneSupremacy That's interesting. I always use Air mode as well but my OSD says "AIR." When I disable Air mode (on a switch for example) then the OSD says "ACRO." Made me think you had air off for some reason.

[@naps1saps]

My first quad was a 12 inch probably 11 years ago to carry a gopro D: I've flown it maybe 10 times and scares me to death. I rather play with 2inchers tbh

[@chamarystigers8731]

Big race drone 13” wow

[@layton7430]

Is this under 250g?

[@mariusztv4339]

that's the "under 250kg" class

[@frankycro]

Incredibly huge 13 inch propellers, obviously you haven't seen Alta X ;)

[@DroneSupremacy]

Nope.. this is the biggest drone i've seen in person lol

[@intillanes]

I want to see that Sony fly!!!

[@brianfreland9065]

That looks heavy and hard to carry! Someone should build a drone that can carry this beast for you! ;) lolol

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

I feel like it can fit even bigger than 13" 😳

[@georgikrastev168]

Let the Sony fly!

[@DroneDaysgr]

Have a wonderful day my friend. George from DroneDays gr.

[@qapsukalek]

Mount a 360 cam on it

[@DroneSupremacy]

It's in the works :)

[@banzaiib]

scary? you should hang out with some 700 size heli guys flyin' upside down lawnmowers around like bats out of hell :)

[@DroneSupremacy]

You’re right, I should 😅

[@FPVHans]

Wouldn't it be possible to rearrange the arms a little bit. What is it called? Dead cat style? So you would not have the props in the picture all the time.

[@RCEHXPEH]

Why are the propellers so small? The frame requires 50% bigest propellers

[@zanderyoung2915]

👌👌

[@pril250]

Sony fly yes

[@Diggerek]

😲😲😲💪😃👍

[@bushcrafter6416]

Yeah I would love to have one 2200 bucks alot!!!

[@jeramboo8511]

I stick to 7 inch, this is too much hahaha, but I like your batteries

[@PavelMy]

Well, then what's the point of flying on such a big one if it's still flying? It's just right to put a fullframe or a movie camera on such a drone...

[@jt2248]

Holy fuckn shitballs that shit is crazyness

[@gregorpesek]

Nice! Shame You used hypersmooth :/

[@DroneSupremacy]

What’s wrong with it?

[@gregorpesek]

@@DroneSupremacy well you don't see how smooth the drone actually is. "We put a gopro on it to see if it had any vibrations" You are supposed to troubleshoot With hypersmooth off. At least that is how i do it

[@gregorpesek]

@@DroneSupremacy I recommend you to tune the quad with gopro + extra weight to compensate for the bigger camera

[@DroneSupremacy]

@@gregorpesek good idea, that’s all to follow soon! We just wanted to see the bird fly and have fun 🤣 Now we’re getting ready for more serious testing 🙌🏼

[@williamdavis4087]

Fly sony FLY!

[@Sem_jurado]

This is not a 12s drone is a drone with 2 6s batteries what a lie !

[@pyro1596]

If you came here for freestyle footage of the drive, you get like 30 seconds of it. Kind of boring to be honest

[@TechTravelWithAditya]

Great Video. I am a 16-year-old and I have applied your drone techniques to get cinematic shots with Mavic Mini. I have uploaded it in my channel. All your drone tips have been really useful to me.

[@oddball119]

Why do they let us build such things at home.

[@michailbelov6703]

Absolutely senseless build... For the money I would expect a 45 minutes flight time... Frame seems excessively heavy,

[@mfrfpv9079]

Sony fly lol
