I've watched your Rocket Race videos a number of times, and finally built one that came in at 40 grams flat. It flies stellar! Securing the battery has been my only struggle. Great quad!!!!

Yes, the battery holding is a challenge. I use the rubber bands I linked in the original video. Yea age and break, then I just replace them. I think there might be some 3d prints available that would work but nothing specific that I designed.

Hello! just finished a build inspired on this one. 38g. Made a lot of mistakes and spent too much money on it. Started with a uruav 85 that I got at a very good price and a Mini twiglet frame. Couldn't use motor plugs as they don't fit with the frame. To difficult to solder motors to that board. When it was done I made the most stupid mistake, pluged the smoke stopper and then a small 4s battery that was beside the right one. Smoke came out. So, bought a new board that cost almost as much as the uruav 85 had cost me, a JHMCU GSF405A-BMI F4 that has a uart based elrs receiver and a OX300 VTX. First flight, first crash, a motor got loose and a wire came off the motor. Managed too solder it but I don't know how well it would work. While putting it all toghether again, two wires came off another motor and coudn't solder them back. So, new motors bought, some happymodel ex1102 that I think are the same as the uruav ones but cheaper. This started in November 2021 and I'm at this moment charging batteries (2s GNB 380mah) to go and maiden it, again. 60g total. It'll go well this time!!

Hey Nick ! Just a quick clarification, the Foxeer Toothless 2 Nano is the same weight (give or take 0.1g) as the Baby Ratel 2 ... I felt it was unclear in your video about whether it was "2g" heavier than the Ant Lite or BR2. I fly both on 3"/3.5" builds (they are heavy for these little guys!) and they're both great, can't go wrong either way. And I have come to agree with you on the image quality vs weight debate... I tend to put nicer/heavier cams now rather than light/trash (and I really hate Ant cams, don't know why people like them!!) Great video please do more of these "Deep Thoughts by Nick Burns" videos, it really doesn't always have to be about the newest+greatest stuff !!!

This quad is a lot of fun, I have built several and some didn't work as well and one caught on fire after a crash but when the X12 board came out I knew I had to build another. I cut my own frame so I could make it slightly bigger, closer to 82mm so there's more clearance for the props, I was a little worried about a prop taking off the ELRS antenna now they're clear of the FC board and I'm running the baby ratel 2. With the slightly larger frame and the baby ratel 2 it weighs just under 41 grams. I also use screws to hold the props, I broke 2 motor shafts in mild crashes before using screws and I haven't broke any with screws.

Been looking at kitbashing a quad, there's a printable version of this frame online? With a number of whoops, 1-2s I've been wanting to dive deeper into tinkering after trashing a frame. 2-3/3.5 inch is where I'd like to stay. I do have a few big quads and live in Canada, so luckier there. I did start earlier this year and went analog and enjoy it. Waiting to see what early 2023 has for Digital, but that's more expensive gear to crash. I'm happy where I am. And after the T-Lite v2 review a little while back, I went sloppy sticks and it's greatly improved my flying. Nice to see what weight differences can do. I have both a mobila 6 and 6DH (1080p-drv). Took the HD's 19000kv motors and swapped with the non HD's 25000kv and noticed right away the weight isn't as bad with the 25000kv motors. Thanks for the ideas, once I've thrashed what I have, good for the indoors flying season and something to build for next year.

So weight+ battery is 77g and to crux3 is 63 g

Thank you alot for the topic, I can say from the testings I made, the lighter a quad is the less demage will have in a crush. However this is until one point, after that you sacrifice and the quad become weacker. One example in my case is props bolts, to save 1.5 grams I run the quad without bolts and I bent a motor shaft, after that I mount bolts back, So I prefer a bit more heawy but much stronger. My favorite quads classes are whoops and 1s toothpicks. I started with big and after get smaller and smaller. Small is better and cheaper.

Hi Nick created similar to your build. Like your light but with baby ratel2. It came in 32.5 g. But pid tunes are off for those 1102 motors and GF 2023, wherever I put those motors, they give a LOT of flight time but the performance are not so great, prop wash and other stuff (when I fly GF 2in by blades quad flies better but feels underpowered). In some of your videos you say that you choose them because of easy pit tuning, maybe you could show your pid tunes?

The super rate is at the very end of the stick resolution. I use more yaw as I have found my "nose" tracking is better with more yaw....which makes sense as yaw is a passive axis....at least it was for years, I can't say it still is with betaflight 4.3

Well, that's certainly one way of looking at it. I'll flip the coin and take the other side! 😁✅ I feel the exact opposite is appropriate. My feelings are, why put effort into making videos about a dying format? Analog is dying. It will die completely and be buried and dead. Tech moves on, and analog FPV will too. Don't believe me? Watch. Manufacturers will eventually see such poor sales of analog gear that they will discontinue making it. When that happens with all of the manufacturers, analog will be dead. It's happened with all old tech when new tech advances. Course, you could still be calling people on your analog cell phone, and watching movies on your VHS, and listening to music with cassette tapes, maybe even 8-tracks, who knows, but most of us feel in the present tech, not the past. 🤷👍 So, I'd rather see videos about the advancing tech we now have. Builds of quads with digital FPV involved. I actually think a lot of new people in the hobby are completely skipping analog, and are smart to skip a dying format. It's also much easier to build with the new digital components and at least for DJI digital, it's incredibly more reliable. 4 wires hooks up a Vista... A ground, a voltage, and a Uart... And RX & TX. No VTX tables to confuse you in Betaflight, no camera video in and video out, no VTX unlocking with flashing LEDs to figure out manual power settings, and no smart audio. Way easier, and way, Way better! Plus, with the V2 goggles coming down in price it's cheaper than analog and the Goggles most but for it. Lightweight builds with digital, whether it be DJI, HDZero, or WalkShart, are all great to see! I want to dwell in the future, and not the past. 2022+ tech, not 2011. I've built a similar DJI digital quad to your TKS light and heavy with a naked Caddx Vista with the great Nebula Pro Nano camera. It weighs much less than your heavy build, but slightly more than your light one. Around 38g, but lighter is certainly possible as I only had a 20amp AIO FC/ESC board available, so I used it. I've done the math, added every little screw, the XT30, wires, canopy, etc... And I feel it's possible to turn the corner on 30 grams and get into the high 20's. With the right components and carefully doing weight saving! Let's do some builds with digital and live in the future of FPV, and say goodbye to a dying format. I told myself about a year and a half ago, that I was never going to buy any more analog only gear ever again. It's a waste of money! 🤔😎🤘

For 3.5”+ I LOVE digital! As I am intertwined in the manufacturing in China I can tell you that new analog gear is still developed and made currently, and that the demand is very high, it will fortunately/unfortunately stick around for the next 10 years at least. Gotta realize that more than 50% in this hobby are poor or not willing to pay more than $100 for goggles/radio.

@@KOrnhOliO1 no rude awakening, it doesn’t influence me at all honestly (my light weight builds will gain 5 grams on average) and in the future that may not even be the case. I like the light weight but won’t cry about it, and video will be better… would be a shame for a lot of the people though. Your technology analogies are flawed though (even though I would of loved if you were right)… this is a very different situation, mainstream digital became cheaper than analog, that’s why it prevailed (price is ALWAYS why). I’m honestly just looking at sales numbers, analog cameras/VTXs still outsell all digital options at 5:1 - 10:1 depending on the wholesaler. Sales have actually increased over the last 5 years, but I think that’s because FPV is more accessible now, and nothing more. Ask Caddx (analog:digital cameras), or any of the FPV wholesalers in China. Trust me, no one wants to keep making analog stuff, they just do it because of the demand. If digital FPV can become cheaper than analog, then analog will die (immediately), and that honestly would be cool! I actually think that with more digital competition the price of digital has the potential of being cheaper than analog… with time. Then and only then will there be no reason to continue with analog. Price is always the market driver.

The cheap tiny whoop era is still alive and well for those in the know pretty much all I rip are brushed 65 and 75mm tiny whoops the parts are a little scarce now but they are cheap and I got tons of different motors AIO's and parts to stay flying forever and I really prefer the linear feel of the throttle with the brushed motors and yes I think the NFE silverware board is just legendary I fly the Makerfire version on a bunch of different whoops and open propped micros and especially on a cockroach frame with NBD 25500KV unicorn motors and Gemfan tri blades or venom props with some Tiny whoop 205mah HV's the thing flat out rips you silly like nothing I ever flown it got teleportation light speed with whiplash agility that is off the charts my Mobulas and tinyhawks can't even compare

Why not 1002 motors?

I have one with 1002 motors. I believe I reference it late in the video. I like the feel of the tri bladed props, the 1002 motors don't power the tri blades as well as 1102

Hey Nick Teddy here... You should have left the swing set for future grandkids

Lol. Only the swing portion was safe. The rest was pretty rotten. But when that day comes we certainly have room for a play set.

Thanks for the flight vids Nick. The UZ85 is still available at one dealer but priced a little high for most people's taste. I bought one anyway so I could do the Rocket Race build 😁

The 250g rule has forced me to be a weight snob. And now there is no dji hd fpv quad that's under 250g that can fly for 20min+ for some fun long range cruising. 😥 Seems like the rules and me wanting dji hd fpv has left me with no option.

Quite interesting how much more flight time you got on the lighter build. My builds tend to get chunky. My first sub250 2s, was 280g with batteries, so I gave up on even trying, and made it a 4s that wound up being 350g and it grew to 390 eventually when I put new motors and a better VTX on it.

I've had good luck with the crux3 canopies too, even on the one covering my lightest 3" naked vista build, which is still heavy compared to the crux3.

An HDZero version is interesting. I’ve been flying the babytooth frame with the Happymodel X12 and 1202.5 motors on HDzero, and wonder if my video is that much better than your analog heavy. Maybe I need a better lens on the HDZero whoop lite kit.

I saw a video that rcinpower is also working on 1003 motors. Those would be ideal for 2inch 3 blade!

I like Them a bit heavier like whoops(76mm and up) avg 10gms heavier to fling it farther as long as recovery doesn't suffer much in freestyle. Just remember the acrobrat days those were the best in 3inch, armatan jalapaturas,and those kingkong et100 -150. I still have them because of durability. My 5inch setups are collecting dust because of the indoors flying i've been doing at the G.H. with the kids. My latest contraption is a ebike 26inch with dual 1500w motors and building a 48v 60ah battery. Now a days it's all about that 247gm mark in 3 inch all in weights. Us old guys don't have the reflex like we used to. Let me know if you want to send you some $ to do that again.

My favourite type of video. I would love a walk along build video through the HDZero build you are planning. I would like to know the costs and pros and cons I loved seeing the swing set again 😋 love the improvements and I enjoy seeing it continue to develop Thanks for making my favourite videos. You always provide me with new ideas and keep making my FPV experience all the richer (Just my bank accounts poorer) I think I have all the parts with a savage bee frame and I want a better camera so your opinion and the opinion of the replies in chat are invaluable and greatly appreciated 😃🛸👌 thanks for sharing
