I am so glad to see you come back, as an engineer your videos just resonate with me and I cant get enough of them. I can't believe you've got Smoox 1750kv motors! That is the perfect motor for me, from my testing I have found that I prefer lower kv for the way I fly, 1700kv felt too extreme, 1900kv felt too much and 1750kv felt right on the money, it gave a little more low end throttle control over 1700kv whilst still giving me very good feeling and proximity precision. The smoox motor is the best one I have tested so far but the high kv makes it unsuitable, I can fly it but I just miss that grunt of the low kv, so to see that motor at 1750kv is perfection. I would obviously like to win them, I cant say I would do anything fancy with them but they would absolutely be going on a 5" and I can say from my testing they will become my main quads motors until I break them and cant replace them. I would even offer to buy them off you. PS. The Sonicare is SUCH a good looking quad!

I'm trying to build a quad that has, a little more punch, and a higher top speed, I believe their hitting 100-150 in the 1/8 miles. My goal is to take off a hair after they take off, but beat them to the end to get a shot from the front of the finish. I know it's going to have to be really fast to accomplish this. I also would like to help test anything you would want built with a set, and give feedback. I been around for about 4 years, (Papadoc fpv before the name change) glad to have you back.

Left off playing with 10inch and went to 6s on 3115 and 640kv motors for a cruiser. Goal was to rebuild with 8s ESCs to make use of plentiful 4s packs to run in series to put me back around a 900kv range for performance. 900-1050kv on 6s with a 10inch was a rocketship but I ran into tuning issues I could not fully tune out, probably filtering issues. At 640kv I was locked in and immediately happy. Went back to playing with the cars instead of FPV after starting to play with something stupid large.

I've thought for years that the batteries we generally use are underpowered for ideal performance. Most people are running 4S on 5" quads and then complain about a lack of power; they either should be building toothpicks, or step up to 5S. My opinion is that whatever inch size you're running, that should be the size of battery used. So ideal performance from a 7" would come from using at least 7S voltage. Same argument for the lack of power in the TinyWhoop category--step up to 2S (which is why the Mobula7 is considered so fantastic, when it's performance I should just be the standard). Glad to see a video from you, I've been getting back into the hobby recently and have been trying to work out a mathematical model for motor sizing/loading, a lot of your theory and content has been great reference. I think those 2306.5 motors would pair great at 6S with some HQ4.8x3.4x4 or GF51455x4 for incredibly smooth handling
@Kabab2 жыл бұрын
That's actually an interesting argument. I don't think there's merrit behind it but it does happen to correlate and I do tend to agree. 12" should run 12S. 20" really does need 20S.

To address the Peanut: You have to use the Insta360 Studio program. When you import a video from the camera it will have some buttons on the right hand side. The top one is Media Processing. In there you will see the stabilization options. Also for the battery I have taken to either wiring it in or using one of those balance lead to USB connectors that iFlight makes. I lost my first Peanut so I have doubles of all the stuff. I'm thinking of taking one of the magnetic USB docks and seeing if I can use it to DIY myself a bigger battery for it.

Hi Bob! I have three projects in mind/progress: a 6inch with 2808 or 2810 that can carry a light mirrorless camera (to have the benefits of interchangable optics and bigger sensor than gopros). The idea is to have a good weight to power ratio to be fair enough agile to do action shots as well as more cinewhoop ones. Seeing your video I may be thinking in doing it coaxial, though I dont like the rise in price that it carries (im also interested in having the best price/performance ratio). The other project I have is a Fuoride frame in which I put injected 3"prop ducts and Im planning to put big motors (2306/2207ish) to have good perforance with this heavier gopros 9/10. I may be reinforcing Furide's arms with molded plastic I took from high quality toothbrushes. The third one is a 5/6 inch racing frame I did by extending a cheap but thick 3inch frame arms with Glide arms tips, also with diagonal toothbrush plastic reinforcements (I can already show pictures of this). I want to see is this reinforcements collaborate with diminsishing vibrations or not and if they really serve in improving durability. I'd be happy to use the imperial motors for either of this projects!

Took a tolerance break from fpv as well. Really cool experiments with the X8. Would like to see a toothpick scale version for the heck of it. Currently running 5s with 2150 kv motors but would be interested in building a semi lightweight 6 inch with those 1880kv motors. I think I would get good efficiency out of them running biblades and can achieve higher cruising speeds. Only thing is I only have 1550 mah 5s lipos so flight time would be around 5-6 minutes. Need to find a lightweight 6inch frame that is still durable enough for high stress flying.

The plus config at the end looks very cool and promising! I was even thinking on smaller props (and motors) for rolling since whoops don't need that much agility. Then, get the true performance from the larger props front and back. It would also make it more compact for smaller gaps (lateral), an less noisy since props wouldn't overlap as much

Right on time! I was just chasing fast things last weekend and was thinking I needed a different set up for efficiency and longer flight times bc I missed a couple moments having to land and change my battery. Looking forward to what you come out with next kabab, cheers!

Nice to have u back my man. Weve missed ya. Id love to take any of those motors. Im almost done making my first video for my channel im starting called FrankenQuadChopShop. My first video is actually gonna be about my first Frankenquad i made which is a 2s TP3, but what made this one unique is i used a tinyhawk freestyle AIO board, took some effort to get on the tp3 frame, but my god it was glorious and im sure is litterally the only one made. I have a few other builds comming up that although people may not want to build it, theyll be glad i did and made a video about it so they could enjoy it. I usually do smaller builds, but have 4s batteries and such. I would love the chance and opportunity to do u proud and make somthing fantastical. What i can say is all my builds involve using things that arnt ment to go together, taking what i have and making it into somthing awesome and unique. I cant say more than that cause id like a couple days to really think it to life. I love your content and work u do for us all, i hope u decide to give me a shot on this, u will not be disappointed.

With everything getting a little sketchy with RMID and all that. I’m wanting to build me a a sub 250 5” and those motors would get put to use on that. I love the innovativeness. You should get with Derek over at KinFPV. He’s got a wonderful brain too. Nice video man. Keep up the good work. Glad ur back!

Awesome to see you back hopefully that means a restock of the baby tooth soon 🙃 I think the motors u r giving away would be interesting to put on a 5 or 6inch y6 which is something I have been wanting to create for a while as I have an unhealthy obsession with weird quads. I currently have a y4 3inch, a 2inch hex with overlapping motors, and a 3inch “bone drone” (4 props with two on each end of a sticklike frame). It would be great to add another unique beast to my collection

I have been working on an entirely 3d printed tpu material frame and looking for a motor that would give me better efficiency but still have the robust power I need to make it perfect for freestyle. It's running a mamba 75 amp race esc and a mamba mk2 fc. It's currently running dys motors but I know there is more room for improvement. Thanks kabab for everything you do in the fpv community. Your work really makes me think about what kind of innovations and improvements I can come up with to contribute to the community. 🤟

Tpu frame is gonna be really difficult because tpu is really heavy/dense. It's also a bit elastic so it'll wobble a fair bit. Maybe if it's really small and light?
