[@Capt.Jiggly]

"Wave to my spotter over there." Take that FAA!

[@PhantomFPV]

Safety and responsibility first! Thanks so much Capt. Jiggly!

[@Kmart_FPV]

I've always wanted to be brave enough to really test things like this. Good on you, good sir!

[@PhantomFPV]

Just gotta send it! Love that school you rip man. Watched your last one with the open gate up top. MAN! Looks fun AF, and you ripped it proper. Thanks Kmart!

[@Kmart_FPV]

That's big praise coming from you, man! Thank you. I hope someday we'll be able to put up some packs together!

[@DRONEPOISON]

Great video, and love how you just sent her line of site. I was surprised at how long it lasted, and she still in the game.

[@PhantomFPV]

I actually like that perspective better. It's keeps me safe too haha. Thanks big dog. Hope you're feeling well man.

[@tinmanfabndrone]

one of few pilots i’ve seen actually show how to rip a new frame, hell yeah new subscriber!

[@PhantomFPV]

DANG! Thanks so much Tinman! Hope you stick around for more of the action.

[@PhantomFPV]

Awe yeah! Sorry it's taken so long to get it rolling. Appreciate you!

[@fpvkevlar8101]

Hell yeah bro been waiting for these shoot outs. Good shit bro

My man! Thanks brother. It's been fun but pricey. Have a great one!

[@YotaGuy_Kyle]

Quad held up farther than I thought. Good testing dude.

[@PhantomFPV]

They're all hanging in there. Thanks so much!

[@flannyfpv]

Awesomeness! It took a beating. What a video 💪

[@PhantomFPV]

Yeah man, beating all the frames down haha. Thanks so much Flanny. Hope you’re doing well brother man.

[@3DesignsCH]

Nice! These are the two frames I have flown for two months. :) I broke two top plates of the AOS5 V5; both broke right at the press nuts. Nothing has broken yet on the Sync V2 and I've smashed it much harder.

[@PhantomFPV]

Not surprised to hear that. It'll be interesting to see the results. Thanks so much!

[@LilwickedFpv]

Great crash course keep up the great work durability it’s a must especially on a quad copter the way we fly. We crash hard.😎👌🏽

[@PhantomFPV]

Big time and will do Wicked. Thanks so much buddy!

[@Mxoderberg]

Laughed hard at the first pole smack!😂

[@PhantomFPV]

Yeah man, hit it hard AF! Fun fun! Thanks so much.

[@JustinDrones]

dude those fence pole hits lmao skillzz!

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! They’re hard hits man. Fun test but dang! Expensive. Thanks so much Justin! Hope you’re well brother.

[@CrashFPV21]

THESE need to be standard tests on ALL REVIEWS for quads LOL. Nice Phantom! Love it

@@PhantomFPV Let's get that Vannystyle pro in the ring homie!

[@PhantomFPV]

@ it’s in there big dog! You’re definitely gonna see the latest and greatest. Thanks mang!

[@CrashFPV21]

@@PhantomFPV Are you still flyin Apex or did you scoot over to Vannystyle Pro? I did exactly that, I was flyin Apex's forever and switched over like 7 months ago and it's a pretty solid frame. Would LOVE the SupaFly frame but damn, it's pretty pricey with all the EU shipping. I keep trying to get Lumpy to hook one up LOL. I gotta fly with Will soon!

[@PhantomFPV]

@ no, still on the Apex. Found it to be the best overall for me. Might change my mind after this test but I was seriously letdown by a very hopeful frame I was planning to switch to. Yeah man, I would too.

[@FSAFPV]

Can’t wait to see the Syncmode V2 test. Cause I just ordered the frame 😀

[@PhantomFPV]

It’s coming up this weekend. You’ll like it. Thanks so much man!

[@DANKFPV]

That was so bad ass. Love the destruction

[@PhantomFPV]

It’s gonna get worse lol. Next episode I ramp up the pain. Appreciate you big time Dank! Looking forward to seeing some mountain runs brother.

@@PhantomFPV can’t wait!🤘

[@thirty3fpv]

Dang bro!! this is some great science!! If i ever design a frame i'm gonna send to you for T&E!! lol

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! Yeah man, I’m beating them up so it’s consistent and repeatable. Let me know! lol. Thanks big dog. Glad to see you back in here.

A real drone killer! 😆

[@PhantomFPV]

Big time! Thanks so much my main man!

[@MomoBrut]

@@PhantomFPV Thanks a lot for the work you are doing, it will be a long time to test all the quads you have prepared, I am looking forward to it, it will not only be fun, but we will finally see which construction elements lead to an almost unbreakable quad ... Thumbs up!😎

[@andAgainFPV]

Welcome To West Australia Bro! Bummed i missed ya at the state champs, enjoy the place.

[@PhantomFPV]

We should be meeting up to rip. You should come out. Appreciate you and sorry we missed you too. Thanks!

[@andAgainFPV]

@@PhantomFPV yep i'll be there tomorrow

[@FlyZoneFpv]

Damn Bruh . Nice testing. pushing it to its death ☠️ not bad on that Aos but I really can’t wait to see the Syncmode . 👊🏻

[@PhantomFPV]

Man, I'm trying to! thanks for the love and it's coming up next.

[@willbrown8928]

I like that you added grass. I have lost more arms to grass grabbing the carbon than concrete and brick.

[@PhantomFPV]

Completely agree Will. Just wait, I start adding in a bunch more off the beaten path events next. Thanks so much man!

[@Smagsfpv]

Thanks bro. Been WAITING, really wanna see the oily rig,vanny pro. But appreciate all of em.

It’s here!!!!!

[@PhantomFPV]

Finally!!! Thank you my friend.

[@hi_desert_rat]

X-mas in October! And so it begins... 🍿

[@PhantomFPV]

Big time! Should keep them coming pretty consistently. Thanks so much!

[@DRONEPOISON]

Well now that you listened to me and added the syncmode mode i have 1 more frame to add, the orca 5 hahahahahahaha. Glad To see this come to fruition. Now i git to wait lol 😆 🤣 😂

[@PhantomFPV]

Haha! Yeah man, she’s in there. I’m planning to do complete series on each frame highlighting failure points as I go along. You won’t have to wait long. Thanks brother man!

[@DigitalCruzer]

Oh boy, cant wait! I'm really interested in this... Honestly i think the best test would be to go to a big open parking lot, and just do a timed 2-3 second full punch out and just disarm... it would easily simulate most of my major frame failures. Just see which can take the most falls into the he pavement... Though i know every hit can be different. To make this more of a scientifically accurate testing, you really would need several of each frame and repeat tests to be more conclusive. I don't have much hope for the vanny or aos, i just can't see a 20-40 grams of weight making the thick arms of the other frames weaker then those skinny arms.... super curious about the oily rig too, i never seen it before... Demibot is my current favorite, it can take a hit, but destroys itself over time due to weight of the battery, sbang is its weakness, not crashes, lol. its a full disassembly to change a broken rear plate which is a real pain in the but. I spoke to ummagawd about it, it just needs a simple revision of the rear plate and top plate, if he had done so I think it would have definitely been the best frame in this...

[@PhantomFPV]

All the feedback! I love it! You’re in luck, my testing process albeit not fully scientific, it definitely keeps the testing consistent and true. Thanks so much!

[@DigitalCruzer]

I just got around to watching this, i think line of sight is just fine for frame testing, putting a old dead camera in would save you the expense... I think I'd wrap uour battery up in a big ball of electric tape, lol. But your putting alot more effort then I think you really need to, any modern frame should handle crashing in the grass... i think 3 tests should do it, and all can be done in a large empty parking lot, 1 failsafe, 2 speed kartwheel, 3-wall slam, Maybe alternate them then repeat which would simulate more real world crashing... 1-just do a 2 second punch and disarm, thats how i usually break mine, falling out the sky, 2-do a speed run and cartwheel it across the pavement, i broke a Triton arm this weekend when a pb&j prop exploded on a full punch speed run, i was running brotherhobby 2207 2700kv motors on 6s, the rpm was just too much for the prop 😂, it was the old 5mm arms not the 8mm. 3- just slam into a concrete wall...

[@Black-ice_fpv]

Them quads got horns bro, bucking all over...lol..

[@PhantomFPV]

Haha! 100%! Thanks a bunch buddy!

[@BerserkFpv]

Daammmmnnn... It's gonna take forever 😅

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! Yes. Thanks so much my main man.

[@mikebergman1817]

We all know that 90% of the time "the failsafe" test is that back-stabbing index finger betraying us in a mid flight impromptu disarm🤣 No? Just me?

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! 100%! Compete agree...although I've NEVER done that to myself...pffft. Thanks a bunch Mike! Have a great week buddy.

[@AdventureswithQuillen]

Was wondering when and if this was still happening. Hellz yea

[@PhantomFPV]

Almost didn't. Changed my mind because it needed to be done. thanks so much!

[@austinspired]

I flew the syncmode for a bit. It didn't let me get my full cam angle but otherwise it was a solid frame

[@PhantomFPV]

Yeah, it had some nuances that don’t fit what I like but agree, overall it’s a nice frame. Thanks Austin!

[@austinspired]

Wave at the spotter 😂😂😂

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! He’s over there man! 💰💰💰

[@robertnastasi4738]

SOOOO hard to watch. Love it

[@PhantomFPV]

[@Visitante_3]

That battery is a survivor

[@PhantomFPV]

Haha! Those props too! Thanks so much!

[@noisy_boi_fpv_3920]

There's a tpu print to pull can forward for the sync 👍

[@PhantomFPV]

Hmmm. Is it for the cam? I've not added anything that isn't supplied by the manufacturer. Thanks Noisy boi!

[@ronaldcphotography]

Fantastic video you put a lot work into this appreciate it. Question on your o3 setup, do you run 16.9 or 4/3 ? 60fps ?

[@PhantomFPV]

Thanks so much! I run the O3 at 1080p 120fps for the record settings. For my flying, its at 4/3. Hope that helps. Thanks a bunch!

[@ronaldcphotography]

@ very nice thank you, can you set separate resolution settings for record on the o3 and transmission?

[@PhantomFPV]

@@ronaldcphotography you sure can. The only downside is induced latency of your FPV feed when recording at higher resolution. If you’re not ripping and griping, this is likely a nonissue. If you’re really in the gas, you’ll certainly notice that latency and video quality issues when flying FPV.

[@ronaldcphotography]

@@PhantomFPV thanks for the reply. Ok so it’s best to have recording on the o3 1080p 120 and set 4:3 on goggles. I care about the latency the most when ripping 😅

[@PhantomFPV]

@@ronaldcphotography are you planning to capture HD footy with the O3? Or just use it as a FPV cam?

[@AdventureswithQuillen]

Mine suffered similarly. 3 arms delaminated in the middle where they come together to mount. I also broke the main plate.

[@PhantomFPV]

Yeah, it's a interesting design. If you're looking for a frame that you want to not crash but flies smooth, this might be the one. Thanks a bunch!

[@Badger_FPV]

CLANG!!! 🤣🤣🤣 12:47

[@PhantomFPV]

Hahaha! Those poles are hard AF!

[@Badger_FPV]

@@PhantomFPV yeah!! You still wrapping the batteries in tape ? Cause I'm surprised they didn't explode

[@PhantomFPV]

@@Badger_FPV 1000%! That wrap is magical.

[@wrightwells]

the only other crash test I've seen was Ummagawd crash the 2Fiddy, this was an excelant , and not unlike my flying style.

Yes sir! haha...we all are pretty good at the crash scene. You could say we're pros at it! Thanks so much!

[@FREEDOMFPV84]

That fre does feel floaty and light I know what you mean I have that same frame nothing broke yet can't wait to see the supafly syncmode because that's my next frame I'm going to buy or the vannystyle pro thanks man 👍👍👍👍

[@PhantomFPV]

Yeah, thought that was super interesting. It's pretty light and wide overa;; which I believe attributes to the liftiness. Not a word, I know but sounds cool. Thanks a bunch my man!

Syncmode v2 every time

[@PhantomFPV]

Awe yeah! We gone keep an eye on it. Thanks so much!

[@PhantomFPV]

@@TheG1nger2 we’re going to do that!

[@rakr9334]

I wonder why you weren't able to install the O3 cam properly. The frame is literally intended to use this cam and VTX. Haven't you ssen Chris Rossers videos about the frame?

[@PhantomFPV]

Hey Rakr. The frame is actually not purpose made for the stock O3. His website even indicates the need for a 200mm cable swap. I’m not into buying a new O3 then popping the MIPI out to bolt in a longer one. Not to mention removing the MIPI from the camera is a nightmare. All that being said, I did review the video and read the instructions from his store. Thanks so much and I really appreciate you watching my content!

[@AdventureswithQuillen]

​@PhantomFPV I ended up doing exactly that and surprisingly, it wasn't hard to do at all.

[@PhantomFPV]

@@AdventureswithQuillen it’s not but definitely don’t recommend newer pilots having to get in and tear apart their VTX and cam to build a new frame. Agree, it’s not hard. Thanks so much mang!

[@AdventureswithQuillen]

@@PhantomFPV right on 🤙

[@madladdan]

Never heard of this failsafe, must be a ghost thing

Or rather just do a frame when your in the mood and it becomes a series that takes over a year to complete

@@PhantomFPV im expecting cockroaches twinkys apex and syncmodes are the only thing left after nukes...... ill be REALLY surprised if the sync breaks over the AOS.... looking forward to finding out out! also battle of the British frames episode 😂

[@DigitalCruzer]

I thought the german its fpv era would be a contender for the Euro frames, it's unique camera pod is amazing and far tougher than any of these frames, but unfortunately it needs a major arm redesign, the tips of the arms that keep them locked in place inside the frame shear off way too easily which then allows the arms to move front and back...

[@DRONEPOISON]

​@@genericfpv syncmode and Orca 5 would be a dope match up. I love the syncmode but I've flown both for a long time. Don't think Aos has a chance.

[@DigitalCruzer]

@@DRONEPOISON that orca 5 rear plate looks weak AF! Worse the tbs source one v5 which was its Achilles heal
