Are there any good fpv drones in this price range that offer good stability and good for freestyle too? Or is this the best option?

[@dronepilotdavid]

so there are lots of drones in this price range. i choose this build for several reasons. Price, availability of spare parts, ease of build, and lots of space for upgrades or parts. Im not racing, mainly using this drone for cinematic type of shoots and follow cam for mountain biking and motocross.

@@dronepilotdavid I really appreciate the fast response. How long is the battery life that you usually get on this drone? And what is the distance that it can travel without it losing signal?

[@dronepilotdavid]

@ running 6s 1550 mah I get 5-7 minutes flight time, I haven’t pushed distance beyond 2,000 ft from launch, mainly due to having to walk to retrieve it if it were to crash 😂

[@ImpeccableR6]

@@dronepilotdavid Thanks for the info. Also, I'm definitely not going to be needing to go further than that so that concern just left the room 🤣

Can u tell me your PID Tuning for this frame ?

[@dronepilotdavid]

I have not completed an "official" tune. Unless its a BNF purchase, i have my drones set to the default 1 in betaflight. I do adjust my rates depending on the drone.

[@adytheo.21]

@ i have same frame… sometimea i get propwash and its sakes.. how to fix its ? What parameter should i adjust ?

[@dronepilotdavid]

before jumping into betaflight, have you checked that everything is assembled and tightened? have you tried different props with lower pitch?
