Pretty insane stuff - Check it out over at bit.ly/FPVProton Part 1 here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYG7kqCleriAf9k Also thanks to everyone over at www.patreon.com/uavfutures and good luck to the winner

[@SolePompano]

Hey UAV features big fan and love the hobby but i was wondering what kind of motors are used on the proton?

[@jamesrostie4784]

UAVfutures what motors and KV where used on that frame Stu ?

[@chazzerfpv1929]

F40 pro v2

[@chazzerfpv1929]

2600kv

[@redneckasmr-xd1gg]

Hey stu i just got into tbe hobby because of you thanks SO much. I have the tyrant s and im loving it. The only thing that i have broke so far is the plug on the back of the camara and a esc wire broke off. Oh and of course some props and battery straps but thats to be expected. It is a really durable quad.

[@drewb213]

Just built my proton frame and yeah its by far the best thought out frame.. I'm sticking with this for the long haul. Its just great, everyone should get one, they have arm options for every type of flying too

[@IRgeoff1337]

I see at least 50 quads on your wall! Ever thought of making a video where you rate all the quads you own in a 1 - 50+ worst to best?

[@Timsfpvshow]

That's amazing how cal slammed it in those rocks and didn't hurt a thing. Great quad great video

[@pippifpv]

Stu. A little picture in the cornor showing onboard video from gt & ctc when you are talking with them, would be great.

[@UAVfutures]

Too hard with their cuts, it would be jumping all over the place

[@stopshopgsm4842]

Try :D I was thinking about this for a long time as well

[@miketech2]

Hrr Pippi. I comment that almost every video.

[@pippifpv]

mikeTECH well, og he says, it is too difficult, he might be right. I was thinking, he could just add a gopro to the quad. Could be fun to see when they crash. Since this Channel is mostly fun, and not really scientific.

[@FlightClubFPV]

WASSUP GUYS!! love the review, you guys crack me up! EnvyAstro is building the RFT racers right now and will be available soon. 109mph with a gopro mount, woohoo!

[@llewellyngrace4781]

I've been flying this frame since its launch and I can confirm this is one badass frame I don't fly my Tokio sx too much which is another one of Flight Club frame also good.

[@kenjifpv6511]

Damn.. That crash really surprised me. I thought something would have broken.. but. I'm going to have to look into these a little more. Thanks Stu, Trev and Cal. Great content!

[@jackmaddox4960]

A buddy who flew this drone texted me and said that a normal quad is like a hovercraft: they can go fast, but they drift in turns, and you gotta compensate for the momentum, while the Proton is more like a race car: it responds to control inputs almost instantly, I thought that was a great analogy.

[@dirtbikerpro6]

I just love the Cal vs Quad segment haha😂

[@ozrik2004]

Mark Canevari I think they should stop torturing poor Cal.

[@Juke_The_Fluff]

Yeah, but it's also INSANELY funny to see him react like he's encountering a lion. That's gotta be my favorite new silly part of the videos. I'm sorry Cal, but STU, KEEP DOING IT.

[@crashology847]

He's gettin pretty good with that shield. Spartan style.

[@dragonballz0]

Yeah, Cal is funny. He even wears shirts labeled for certain occasions. lol Cal knows what I mean. lol When I first saw the shield, I thought it was all about protection. I had assumed he was struck by a quad in an earlier video. If he was struck, where's the link? lol I liked the vid where the XJB145 3" struck the shield (and everything survived like nothing happened to the quad). I'm purchasing that quad now (my last quad, prop purchase for the year). :) I have enough parts to build 2 more after that one. O_O

[@tombstonefpv9053]

Great video Stew and guys. Ya'll really ripped it up with that thing. I fly mostly freestyle, but I really want to do a super fast quad build eventually and this may be the one. I'm a big fan of EnvyAstro, so it was cool to see that ya'll watch them also.

[@HDgodfrey]

Love it. Awesome. Can't get enough off Carl dodging with shield. Funnier every time. Nice riot shield landing and take off. Keep up the great work.

[@JoeKunsch]

Stu missed a bleep! Haha! Glad you missed it or intentionally left it in! It just fits there perfectly

[@matrix12x]

That craft looks amazing

[@NorgeSquad]

Can you have a review of Emax hawk 5?

[@loboquad2122]

Wow, I"m super impressed! Love the light weight, not having to fight the heavy slide out momentum. My 2 1/2" micro is locked in without all the extra weight, wondering how the feeling compares with this speedster?

[@TheCiardellas]

It’s amazing how the video is not choppy at all! I need to get your vtx setup! Also what motors are you running on the proton?

[@richardwong9217]

Thanks so much for another great flight vid stew, this bad boy really screams.......... And it's really durable too, CTC you really "Crash Tested" it, lol. cheers....

[@ChristKrew-Rev1.8]

Hahahahah...... like a hornet. Love the shield fight! 109!!!!!! Wow.... love it. I bought one to learn on in a DTF(bnf) but Mike toned it down for me with 2206 2522KV motors. Made it more for me to have more flight time than ripping it. Thanks for the review. P.S. Haters are going to hate.... pay them no mind. Love what you do for the hobby! BEST FRAME EVER!

[@MrE.]

Almost in disbelief that there was no damage besides the battery, I expected it to be on par with the aftermath of a giraffe falling out of a plane, splayed out like Bambi. Kudos Stu and crew.

[@jakokoko12321]

I got mine during the pre order period and it was 50$ each owned 2 frame and it was a beast luv it comes with spare arms 😬😬

[@danch2054]

Love the videos Stu, also the added touch of humor. Hate to be blunt though, isn't it time you got the echo sorted out in the very nice new studio?

[@jamesdunn581]

Outdoor camera is different but an improvement! Glad you could get it sorted. :) Thanks for the vid!

[@zoltangremsperger5361]

this video really stir up the water! I'm gonna buy this drone and will flying like Stew. than tomorrow I grab my Eachine Wizard X220S and wake up.

[@daggergtfpv]

Nice landing on the riot shield!! That thing looks fast

[@jeroenvandooren8675]

i love this drone super nice frame and stretch flies super very much power with these motors

[@TheStormHelix]

could it be antennas tucked so close to the carbon frame are to blame for the desync?

[@rippingj6017]

Wow that defiantly had some mad speed to it, that was pretty sweet. Great review.

[@brentm8424]

How about oscillations on demand? Needs tuning.

[@VonRippin]

SO HYPED LETS GOOOOO

[@BrianKrumheuer]

When Cal and Trev are doing their test flights, it would be nice to see some DVR footage of their flight instead of just watching them sit there the whole time. Maybe do a picture-in-picture with the footage of their face in the bottom corner.

[@ianthrockmorton9167]

Gotta review the Helipal Storm Loki-S5. Super killer craft

[@baconpippin7096]

Random fun fact - the film fight club was written by a guy that lives about 5 miles from me in washignton state US

[@TheMadmacs]

great fun guys..... send out the word, this quad made stew swear.

[@VictoryAviation]

For a beginner, could you just put less powerful motors on so that it's not as fast, seeing as how the frame is so well thought out?

[@ralphyvazquez1471]

Wow that's a awesome flier. You are crazy putting two batteries in parallel. How much weight is it with the two batteries????

[@maxkielbasa3324]

If I am an intermediate pilot, could I use expo to make this drone more flyable for me?

[@gadgetmantwincities]

I am new to the sport and would like to build 2 5 inch drones with my son. I don’t want to cheap out so with that said what would be the best for us to get started?

[@daggergtfpv]

Omg that thing is a beast! Appears to be tough as well

[@thewarprider9814]

JEEPERS! That little monster f***ing BOOGIES! I'm at a loss for words...

[@nicoretuas]

Can you please do another "Start in FPV Cheap" Video? I really want to start flying fpv but there are many items out there and most of them are really expensive. I would love a new video with the best bang for the buck items.

[@MrEvan1932]

Where did Cal get that goggle strap??? Its so Aesthetic

[@perspective983]

Hey Stew!! I'm kind of stuck because I want a really good racing quad, but my decision is kind of stuck between the Proton and the Merica. Which is the better quad in your opinion and what are the main differences?? ...What might be good to know though is that I haven't got that much exprience yet, so I might be tending to get the merica, but it would still be nice to know what the differences are!

[@neilrobertson1345]

On par with Merica 5" you think Stu?

[@haydnbao4219]

what batts are being tortured with the motor and prop combo?

[@gboulter]

I would like to see a lap time back to back test for these premium frames with this the Merica ETC and when another comes out test again with the current leader so it's based on same track ,pilot ,weather ETC. And why did you have it dragging that brick of a battery about it's supposed to be a lightweight.

[@BigDFPV]

😂 I laughed so hard when he blasted it with the shield, that was great! lol

[@mlc3ifly]

Stewart, what is your all time favorite, go to for fun race quad?

[@Tarets]

I thought to myself "wtf, why did he speed up the video". Incredible.

[@mshane86]

Looks really well done. Very "snappy," you can almost see every stick movement in the flight footage!

[@UAVfutures]

yeah that is it, if you can control it and get the sticsk right it is a rocket, otherwise it is just going to jump all over the place for a new pilot

[@FlyingPhilUK]

Where do you guys sit on the Butterflight / Betaflight controversy?

[@kjkareemslim]

I just order a 6" frame. Stew im just subscribe to your ch. Love all the videos you put out cause you keep it real 100 on everything.tell Grumpy trev he make me laugh.happy fpv.

[@hellomyfellowfellow7210]

Great review. Now next is the mode 2 ghost frame.

[@licensetodrive9930]

I thought the first rule of Flight Club was: Tell everyone about it, it's awesome!

[@andrewduran8365]

Please tell me what to buy for my realacc215 purple frame. I cant decide. To much info overload! Everything i think i want is sold out. Getting discouraged. All i want to do is fly!

[@rif-raffpv]

Just wondering, steel has the wilted celery, what’s with your cactus?

[@Martman5150]

Wow, there are some real haters here. Stu, I love you guys. Keep up the great work. I'm a big fan of flight club as well. If you get a chance, review a Phuket frame. Awesome 3 inch. Thanks.

[@lionfpv9016]

Btw proton n amrica ?? Which one do u like in terms of speen n handeling ?

[@jasonyeo1040]

nice video, can you recommend combination of strong and speed drone?

[@spenzee1722]

Is the frame strong

[@Osirus1029]

Of course the day I finally have the money to order my proton Stew (Stu?) outs out a video saying its dope as hell. Fml flooded business incoming, didn't want my frame this week anyway qq. Love ya dude!

[@zvonimirtrgovcic5499]

I have all the parts for the quadcoter except the frame

[@TomicaCZ]

Hi Stew. Please please please next time record some DVR of CTC's or GT's flight and put it into a corner so we can see their reactions as well as the flight footage so we can see what's going on with the quad :) Anyway, this drone looks and flies super-awesome!

[@RD-fb6ei]

It does look like your getting some vibrations. Maybe your approaching the sound barrier ;)

[@licensetodrive9930]

Yeah, that quad looks pretty sound to me.

[@keithadenson4835]

Stewart remember the aluminum Mobius mount

[@deadmoo83]

14:59 Shield Perch 15:07 Fencing Cal

[@beid777]

Is your flight footage sped up? I seems to have a lot of the tells of sped up footage?

[@herbertfortner2687]

Super fast great frame Love it.

[@mrnobody9821]

Is it oscillating in the first clip?

[@StudioZweiSechs]

Wow really fast😥 what kindof antennas do you use on your googles?

[@rickmiller5011]

It is almost scary definitely out of my league

[@johnsammons9788]

Very nice. I love it!

[@HappyFPV]

How many best drone ever videos have you done this year?

[@UAVfutures]

I feel like this comment is not so much a question but more of a dig my titles. FYI the word "best" has been used once by me this year for the et125 and it really is one of the best small drones I have ever seen. If you can see this title is directly referring to Cals quote, and it is even in quotes with his name next to it, but if this was a reay question. 1. I have had 1 best drone this year.

[@flightevolution8132]

I mean, sensational is kinda the mode of operation for this channel, don't be surprised. (No hate, Ive watched every video on this channel, and subbed before 10k :) )

[@dronereviewman9580]

UAVfutures this is the fastest review i have seen lol and it crashed lol great review i will own one it might take a long time but i need to fly that fast it is amazing thanks again for making me dream! Dream of flying supper fast! It has been cool watching your channel grow and your new quad wall is another thing i dream about lol LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!

[@dis3nchant3d42]

Mike's frames are amazing.

[@Armagedis]

Hey Stu! The connection from my aomway to my 2S battery broke, do you know where I can get a replacement or an improvement?

[@SanJacinto23]

What kv version are these motors?

[@stoiczfpv]

i need a proton in my life!

[@matejbludsky8410]

stoicz fpv like an eagle needs to fly!

[@dronereviewman9580]

Wow stew!! I knew you would fly it well!! This this is amazing!! Holy crap that looks so cool!! I am determined to fly that fast one day!! I love speed and can not get enough of it! This quad is the fastest one i have seen you review! And still can not believe how fast it is just amazing!! GREAT REVIEW!!! And amazing flying! 👍👍👍 Haha it can take a crash good!! Lol WOW OVER 100MPH ON 4S lol you make me laugh when you attack him with the drone hahaha it is so funny!! He is a good guy!

[@rollonb2947]

There you go speeding up the footage again..... 😂 Just kidding 😂 looks great, you guys are fun to watch. Thanks fellas. 👍😋🍻 💪🃏

[@levy0810]

Hey stew, VERY NICE YOUR NEW LOGO, you should make one to put on your wall behind you 😀 hope you like your new house buddy 👍

[@bitsinmyblood]

Hi Stewart. I really enjoy your content. I have zero criticism - your content is fantastic. However, from a technical standpoint: Can you please get some acoustic dampening material installed in your studio? The reverb is brutal, bro.

[@UAVfutures]

I am

[@MMnight]

Great video and some crazy speeds

[@JohnTaylorFPV]

falls out of sky... BEST QUAD EVER! come on guys

[@BlindsideFPV]

John Taylor the first flights and reviews with trev and cal should be done blind, without them knowing what they're flying because it seems like they (especially cal) go in to it with preconceived opinions based on popularity and price. I mean come on, the thing desyncs then he says all the parts are well thought out.

[@mrmurder75]

Yeah I don't buy all this best quad ever crap. On any reviews, not just this one. Give it a month and the next best quad ever will be out. It was not very long ago when the 'merica was the best quad ever. Deciding something is'the best' is purely subjective anyway.

[@kobrapromotions]

Bit sick of every video being THE BEST

[@JackHartwig]

@UAVfutures What flysky receiver do you use on your standard race quad?

[@jroddy8337]

Wow just awesome!!!!

[@justme_12342]

You guys: so good,fast and agile.this isn't for a beginner. My brain as a beginner: let's go! 🤣

[@MMnight]

Hey guys new blood to the channel question do you prefer a one piece frame or a frame you need to put together?

[@dronemaniacsdpreston8497]

Insanely fast. Love it and ..Shared 👍

[@boogiefpv1982]

Hey Kangaroo Stu, I'd love to with that frame the whole drone looks awesome like night rider or something lol

[@tyskers]

If one would use a 3s would it be tamed to learn its flight charistics.

[@lionfpv9016]

Wow love the speeeeeed😍😍😍

[@mittyvidz8259]

Stu, have you reviewed anything from quadracer.com.au. ? Aussie designed frames that are on a similar level and take a lot of I put from their users. Best frames I've ever used and customer service is next level. No I'm not affiliated with them, just think they're a top company

[@tbcab]

This looks dope but the video sped up very fast would love to see the actual footage

[@AshRane]

What battery were you using? how hot did it come down with the 2600kv motors?

[@brecklietz1587]

That is one great looking quad. Way over my skill set but I will prolly build one anyway🤣

[@R3DN3CKV0LTR0N]

hey man just saying the red thumbnails i've been skipping over thinking it's stuff i've already watched might be a good idea to find a different color.

[@easley421]

What?!? That shit looks fast forwarded X 30. Holy shit. I wouldn't stand anywhere near that thing. I'd be so nervous sitting there

[@kadeschiller4223]

Stu I love the new office....I want to see u do a house tour plz

[@spacecowboyfpv5511]

Doesn't seem to matter whether the qwads explode, desync, catch on fire.. Stu always love them!! Best ever!! Give UAVFutures free stuff = BEST STUFF EVER. lol

[@firejeep2009]

you guys should use walkie talkie or a smartphone app like Voxer when doing the speed test so CTC does not have to yell the speed... great crash CTC lol
