Cant wait for the detailed build.

[@lf5133]

I have this car. This is the one I got last Christmas on sale. Came with two batteries only 87 bucks. I couldn’t pass it up. This thing also comes with an aluminum skid plate that covers the entire undercarriage. Sweet ride, fast and durable. Gotta get my DJI cam setup on this thing. Did I mention it’s fast 😂👍🏻

[@MangoJim90]

Thanks!! Yep, brushed version is good enough to have tons of fun

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

If it had any more power it would be faster than my $400+ car hahah 🤙

[@TJ-kx8cn]

Nice one can't w8 for the build. I used to fly FPV and want to build a cheap rc car FPV style.

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

FPV RC cars are crazy fun when you and a couple friends have them and follow each other around. I will get that vid up soon!

[@liewzy]

Waiting your detailed build video!

[@cellardoor9882]

Hey, what's the range in open space and how long does it go on a single charge? Btw, can't wait for a tutorial video on FPW camera project

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

So, it’s not making it around the block with the stock radio and receiver. I have gotten it to the end of my block with no problem (about 75 yards). I am trying to get that video out asap. Hopefully in a week or so 🤙

[@elviszhirzhan4459]

Where is the build video for the FPV? I really want to build one. It I don’t know how to

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

Haven’t had a lot of time but I’m on it 🫡

[@OldAmericanSteelAutomobiles]

will you post a detailed guide how do 1.3 ghz

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

Yes, but it is taking a while for me to get the right place to do it. The system is all built but my area turned out to be swamped in RF noise on the 1.3ghz band, so the results kinda look like trash. I know this system can reach out over a mile in the right place so I’m trying to film that when I can 🤙

[@jobe3899]

I’m thinking about getting a traxxas latrax teton and making it fpv but I have little knowledge on how to do so. I don’t need it to be able to go miles away, pretty far still so it can be enjoyable though. I was wondering if there were any tips or help you could provide me with how to do so

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

For sure! Here is a video I made with a bunch of tips - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIfdepR6brlkp7c But here are some written out that a lot of people miss- A normal FPV system will use 5.8ghz (a frequency) and you want a decent “video transmitter” (one that does about 800mw). Next you want a tall antenna on the car (the higher the antenna, the better signal you’ll get in most cases). You want to power the video transmitter off of a separate battery than what the car is using. The video receiver may have a screen built in or some use goggles. If the receiver can use two antennas (called ‘diversity’) it’s better. Use one directional and one “omnidirectional” antenna for best results. You could choose to use the DJI video system, but now you’re in $1000. The last little advice is- Traxxas remotes have terrible range. I hear Dumbo RC or RadioLink have much better range remotes but I’m not sure how they’ll work with your car. I made a video on my controller system, but it’s super overkill, like all the other stuff hahah. Good luck man 🤙

@@ChaddRainsFPV thank you very much, I appreciate the help

[@jobe3899]

@@ChaddRainsFPV hello, I was wondering if you had a business email or something I could send a link too because I’ve made a list of products that you previously said I needed and I think they are correct. I just have the problem that once I buy all of it I don’t know how to wire it all up to a separate battery.. it is a lot of help so I completely understand if you don’t have the time to get to this request.

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

@@jobe3899 I think you can send links via the comment section on my videos. I never turned off that option. I don’t have a business email at the moment but I should set one up. The wiring is pretty simple though, Velcro a 2nd battery near the video transmitter and use that to power it up. The camera gets power from the video transmitter, so that’s easy. The screen/video receiver are totally separate so there isn’t much info needed there either. Let me know if you’re still having some doubts tho

[@jobe3899]

@@ChaddRainsFPV I’ve tried commenting twice with the list but it keeps deleting my comment, I don’t know if it’s because it’s too long but it won’t stay

make WLtoys 124017 fpv

[@olliefs9298]

Iv put off buying one of these for several months i really need to just bite the bullet..

[@ChaddRainsFPV]

It’s a good little basher for the money. If I wanted something to play with and not worry about throwing tons of money at it this one kills it 🤙
