Mr. Bardwell, I'm grateful that your energies are focused on the fpv community. Your integrity and intellect could have enriched any other group, but we got you.

[@tito9107]

I've never had issues with speedybee products and will continue using them 😊

[@ViewFromAbove_]

Same, especially since from their product design (especially with frames) you can see they put some thought into things. And their prices are great too so I see no downside. Maybe you can argue that product support may not be the best but it's not like other brands are much better in that department

[@GrauFPV]

The only people who say that either can’t fit for shit enough to push their gear, or fly like once a year, because speedybee is trash

Speedybee esc failed after second crash

[@bosqueblanco3744]

fckin love this guy. i dont even need the specific information he gives out all of the time but its so satisfying to hear some one set it straight , so fairly , everytime . everytime

[@danarchy6000]

You are a real blessing for this hobby,right on and thank you Mr Bardwell.

[@FitzyRides]

Thanks for all you do Josh, I talked my wife into trying the SIM and we are watching your training videos before her sessions. Who know we might have another FPVer to join the community... We are supporting for all your help.

I have two speedybee f405 v4 stacks 55A. One on a 5 inch freestyle quad I have crashed a ton and one on a 7 inch LR quad that I fly hard at high altitude. Both stacks have performed perfectly well.

[@kurtzFPV]

There was a problem with the ESC that shipped with the F7 V2. They finally got it ironed out, as it was partly a firmware problem with the blheli32 version. I had one smoke and 2 that kept having problems with corrupt firmware. Speedybee credited me for the one that smoked and let me and others test the firmware that solved the issue before release for feedback. I thought they handled the situation pretty well and I'm still flying the rest of them plus another that I bought later. I also really like their frames.

[@MrBornenjap]

My speedybee f7 survived the short circuit due to the tin sparks that stuck to the MOSFET because of my negligence in soldering the motor cable!!! how great it was!!! a few weeks later it crashed and fell into the water, until now it is still normal

[@wazabiqc]

My speedybee f405 v3 stack has sunk at the bottom of a lake, has been washed with alcohol and the classic rice bag. Still working as new !

[@dondupuis4007]

Never heard the term blacklisted on fpv channels until Madstec used the term against a company without validation. And pointed out worker bees as though they somehow had the ability to influence a very large company. Anyway, guess the term blacklist is part of our vocabulary. 😊 Being military glad my friend didn't disown me because I joined the military, as you use as an example, which was a very well done segment in you live stream even though Blunty would have been happier if you just bypassed the subject😊 Blunty your contribution to the show is extremely important, make a difference to up newer FPV folks!

Jb, what is your policy moving forward with Rotor Riot now that they are supporting the production of attack drones?

[@JoshuaBardwell]

Mr. Bardwell's got a lot of wisdom. Ty hommie

[@BeautyBeastRC]

never had a problem with a speedybee stack 😎

[@MCsCreations]

Bad soldering tends to kill escs... Easily.

[@GR33ZY.A1]

As long as it has contacts it's okay...

[@CarbonGlassMan]

I just had my Speedybee F7 stack equipped quad lightly hit a tree. I walked to it and tried to arm and it flashed something about the ESC on the goggle screen. it wouldn't arm. I got home & tried it and all but 1 motor armed. I desoldered all motors, then soldered the motor that didn't work back to the ESC, plugged in a battery and I got the 3 tones. The FC is not connected at the moment. Now this stack has been running in this quad for a year or so. It's also possible that the ESC is still good too. It's possible that the motor output on the FC wend bad too, but I haven't had time to go through it in any detail yet. I am happy with Speedybee though. They are way cheaper than anything else and I've had plenty of expensive ESCs and FCs just stop working.

[@huzafah_]

I love how his brain work 😂 he's too conscious

[@Kircholm]

That's a healthy approach!❤

[@Stefan_73]

There is also the legal implication side of such negative lists. Don't go there. Users should listen to what's recommended if unexperienced or you have your own wisdom and research.

[@BBFPV]

On INAV wings FC speedybee has 95% i think 😅

[@chrisgulick3608]

I do like the Speedy Bee. I have the mini stack for the bee35 and the f405 v3 for the Master 5 V2.

[@sea_kerman]

I was under the impression that it was specifically the speedybee v3 FC that had issues due to bad design and wiring, causing issues with the osd and blackbox That and they don't through-hole their usb ports so they're attached less strongly.

[@chrisgulick3608]

I spent a week trying to get the Happy Model ep2 to work. Bought a Radio Master RP2 connected it to the same port (2) updated to same ELRS on TX12 and it worked right away. very suspicious of happy model now.

[@Chris-oj7ro]

Lol, I have those goggles. I was so ready to spend big bucks for DJI goggles after that experience. It really wasn't a fair look at what analog video can do.

[@chrisgulick3608]

Speedy Bee are cheap enough you can buy, break then buy again. No problem.

[@rgglenn150]

But my friend also bought 2 bnew speedybee and all of them have defective esc... . the fc is good tho

[@jp-3dairgunworks152]

It would be a short list with Rotor Riot at the top. 😂

I'm so disappointed with this technology all round no HDR no 3D No 4k poor refresh rates

[@LehtusBphree2flyFPV]

Cyclone FPV pulled all their chargers that failed and put the VIDEO out and the Chinese company knew that batch was bad then replaced all the units to take that video down but he didn't take it down cause the people in this hobby needed to know the truth behind what crappy company's do to make money off there mistakes but didn't care cause it's all about making money from the people in this hobby. ISDT IS another bag company that offer warranties on there products but don't honor them when they burn out.

[@Hotwire_RCTrix]

No the SBee stuff is cheap design. Junk

[@DigitalCruzer]

Speedybee is runcam, basically what I found with their products is shit half the time, it's just the build quality, they don't know how to attached components to the board as well as other companies like skystars or tmotor, with my speedybee and runcam products I have had, has had well over a 50% failure rate! just hit and miss low as manufacturing issues, I have some things that held up really really good and I bought a second and it died immediately, that is just their reputation at this point!!!

[@DigitalCruzer]

I have had dozens of their products, the problem is that influencers that have only had a few of their products set to them directly push the line thats just mostly shit!!!

[@DigitalCruzer]

Jhemcu makes a far better product then speedybee IMO, hands down everyday!!!

[@vadimus2007]

So you are that guy with 5 bad ESC! lol

[@woltervandenberg]

The reason why Speedybee controllers get flashed more often then other brands is because you have to buy a new one every couple of weeks

[@NotTravisFPV]

I’ve never had a bad ESC from speedybee nor flight controller. The ones in my drones have been in them for over a year.

[@spitfeueranna]

Do not buy anything FPV other than a controller, it's all a waste of money and not fun at all. There are lots of SIMs out now you can buy for a small one time cost, fly and crash all you want for free. Really, the RC part of FPV has been the worst hobby ever.

[@redcaoimh3127]

That's pretty dull and defeatist. Enjoy your pixels

[@spitfeueranna]

@@redcaoimh3127 I do enjoy my pixels. Enjoy your credit card bills. Your pixels are just as fake as they are generated by light sensitive transistors in a camera and delayed by quite a few milliseconds and are showing the past not the present. Fake pixel for fake pixel, I'll take the ones that are free and 100% static free all the time.
