My lightest 1s 65mm whoop | Build

[@PothocketsFPV]

ATTENTION! Before building with a newbeedrone cockroack frame, make sure that the c clip holding the motor together is not being held in place by the hole in the center of the motor mounts being too small. I had a set of motors i thought were DOA because of this. The holes on this frame can be widened with a drill bit.

Thanks for the info! I checked and it is really quite "tight" ,but for HM motor only ,the betafpv motor c-clip seems smaller and fits smoothly.

Great build, brother. Im just getting ready to order one of those boards for a 75mm 1s build. Looks like you have a great little whoop there. 👍👍

[@TargetFPV]

Thanks! I've been using BetaFPV 4in1 FC for a while now and it still works ,but the new matrix is still fresh ,so I don't have much experience with it. One positive thing is that it is cheaper (for me) than AIOs of similar capability. And it is much easier to use a board than to put a separate VTX or RX on it. Although, if it dies it takes everything :)

Nice build! I am going to build some whoops on matrix AiO but I will definitely remove the plugs and solder the motors to the board directly. It's better to do it immediately during construction instead of after a few weeks of flying and crashing - I speak from experience :)

[@TargetFPV]

Thank you! Without the connectors I would gain a few more grams, but I didn't want to solder it :) I'll leave it for now, so when the connectors get tired, I'll solder.:)

So cool. Really want to get into fpv but no money❤

[@TargetFPV]

Thanks! Worth looking around the second hand market , many people are switching to digital or just getting bored of fpv. I had no money for anything either , when I was a kid we had to save money , because we lived almost from one month to the next . My classmates wore cool clothes, I wore second hand, they had BMX and montain bikes, I had a crappy bike. I had a computer, and only years later than others (c64). The only RC car I had as a kid was a wire car. I live in a country where taxes are taxed, we have the highest taxes in the EU. My salary is worth less than anywhere in the EU. Now over 40 it is a hobby that helps me relax and is interesting for me. Someone changes their phone every 3 months, even the more expensive ones, I can use a low end one for years. What's important for who, for me cheap shoes are good , so I have enough for fpv stuff ;)

Thank you very much!

[@JackalFPV]

Nice build! Its solder free right?

[@TargetFPV]

Thank you! Yes, you don't have to solder it. My other whoop is soldered and made of nearly similar parts but still 2-3g heavier. My scales are not very accurate but I can see the difference. I will be curious to see how durable the frame is ,because I have an air65 frame ,but I managed to break it ,anyway maybe I just had no luck ;)

[@JackalFPV]

@@TargetFPV o.g. Meteor 65 frame is holding up very good to crashes for me :-)

[@TargetFPV]

@@JackalFPV I also really like the meteor65 frame and I've used it most of the time because it can handle the crashes. I have a few to spare if the newbeedrone frame gets tired :)

[@steazoxgaming]

you are french ?

[@TargetFPV]

No :) I am Hungarian.

[@steazoxgaming]

@@TargetFPV ok so why did you know we are fpv

[@TargetFPV]

@@steazoxgaming I do quite a lot of shopping on drone-fpv-racer.com (one of my favourites), parts and t-shirts . One of the t-shirts says "WE are FPV" ;) But I was just looking for a camera mount and I liked their model. Especially that the air canopy ,which I have is just fragile ,so I can use it with tpu . And what i think is good ,i like to "advertise" ,like parallaxfpv and "piratframes" frames (toothpick).
