There are some TPU mounts available that you can print up if you prefer to to use TPU 👍

@@WIL_FPV It is, it's one of the best 5" frames you can get right now 👊

@@colibrifpv i belive in it

Hey thanks for watching! The Nazgul Evo is awesome, you're going to love it! You should setup flight modes on a switch in Betaflight, most people setup a 3-position switch with Air/Acro-Horizon-Angle modes. Once you bind your radio, check that your switches are working in the receiver tab, and if so, assign them in the modes tab.

@@leflamantrosefpv1725 Very good eye, you are the first person to notice... My ESC on the 20x20 stack was bad, burned up when I did my test hover, first time that's ever happened to me, soldering was clean but it's possible I got one of the FETs dirty, Anyway, that AIO board is a much better fit for this build and 40a is more than enough 👍

@@colibrifpv

@@colibrifpv i go to buy the 5 inch version, the tony 5 kit. is light and im tired to charge big 6s 1300mah lipo's for 3/4min of flight time.. i have a 4 inch quad, a IF chimera 4 and with a 850mah 4s, i've got >6 or 7min of flight time and is easy to charge and are light. no more big quads! now im looking to a AIO or a stack.. what do you prefer if you do this build?

@@leflamantrosefpv1725 You should check out the SpeedyBee 405 AIO Board, it's got 40a which is more than enough for an ultralight, and it's pretty cheap 👍

​@@colibrifpv yes, but it is entirely weldable, and with its aluminum cooler, it is heavy (>16.2 g!) like a 20*20 stack even more!... so I will go for the flywoo AIO I think... it has sockets and is light (9.4 g). the mpu6000, the f7, has more flash and more power. (more expensive too, too much?) so between the two there is the flywoo 20*20 f7 stack, which is lighter too with 13 g (and is more reliable and much stronger than an aio... and cheaper.. without welds except the esc and these pads much better arranged in my opinion.) I am in deep thought.. I am not against welding, but if I can do without it, it is better.. and I prefer stacks. I had seen this AIO, but even the speedybee stack is lighter (13.5g) and at the same price. (with the advantages of a stack of not having to change everything if the ESC dies, it makes the repair expensive especially if I gain nothing with the AIO speedybee neither in weight, nor in quality nor by being obliged to a total soldering (stack speedybee is also all to be soldered)... not to mention that the aio or the stack are f405 not F7 like the flywoo. in any case thank you very much for your feedback, cordially, A.

Hey my friend, that's awesome that you want to get a 5" drone 🤘 You might want to start with something small until you get more comfortable with the controls though, just because as you learn you will crash, everybody does, and smaller drones are less expensive to replace. If you do want to go with a 5" drone and you don't have much experience building, I would highly recommend the full Joshua Bardwell kit [bit.ly/JBfullkit] because it comes with everything and he has made a series of build videos that walk you through everything from the very beginning, step by step... good luck, let me know how it goes!

Yes, it will fly home if GPS Rescue is configured in Betaflight, but it's not as accurate as with DJI drones, it's meant as an emergency measure until the pilot can regain control

Not exactly...

Hey there! It's using the GEP-F405-HD V2 Flight Controller and GEP-BLS50A-4IN1 ESC These are budget components but very solid.

@colibrifpv I am thinking of turning it into a true cinedrone an run 8 morors of 3115 900kv an use the f7 55pro 2 flight controller with 8-1 esc by t motor or the f722 hd flight controller not to sure which one but the esc is correct for sure

Could be that the FC is not powering the RX over usb, so you have to plug in a battery, and if it's not that, it could also be that the RX/TX wiring is crossed, never hurts to double-check your FC wiring diagram and soldering 👍

Yes I'm sure you could, but since they're quite a bit bigger you'lll end up with a more powerful but heavier quad with shorter flights. But if you got them cheap, why not???

@@colibrifpv cuz the rpm is cut in half is why im worried

@@Kevin-wy8kc Right, I don't have my Trashcan anymore so I couldn't remember what the kv was on the original motors, it was 15000, right? Yea the 8000 kv would be very sluggish on 2s. The perfect solution would be to go from a 2s to a 3s battery to replace some of those RPM, just look up the specs of the AIO board to make sure it can handle it.

@colibrifpv I just wentwirh some 802s 16000 kv so I lost a mm I height but gained 1000 in rpm

Hey thanks for watching my videos 👍 Since you mentioned that you want to carry a GoPro, I would recommend the Pavo35, it is larger, but is much, MUCH more powerful and capable and will handle the weight of the GoPro better. The only reason to go with the Pavo25V2 is if you want to fly indoors our around people, and you can use a naked GoPro or a GoPro bones. Technically, the Pavo25V2 can carry a full GoPro, but it doesn't fly all that great with that much weight...

@@patrickmcclung2557 Thanks a lot for your support, I really appreciate it! 😁

There are several reasons why that could happen, but by any chance, is it plugged in backwards? On my strip the plug was pinned wrong, meaning the red black, etc. did not coincide, so double-check that it's plugged in the right way..... if that doesn't do it, check in Betaflight that the mode it's set to (I think AUX 1) has a switch assigned to it so you can turn it on. Good luck!

No there is no version available without a VTX, but you could buy the analog version and replace the analog VTX with Walksnail...

I think you're right that the Pavo 20 is better suited for indoor flying since it's smaller, 2" instead of 2.2 inch props. Enjoy it!

@ thank you and Happy New Year !!!

As of this moment, no, the DJI Ns goggles have not yet been updated to work with the DJI O3 Air Units so you should consider the Integra Goggles or the Goggles 2. FYI it is likely that DJI will update the Ns goggles to work with the O3 in the future but there is no guarantee.

On the Pavo20Pro, you should use the two small antennas that BETAFPV includes in the box. The range and performance is very good, not quite as good as the full-size DJI antenna, but it fits the size and design of the frame much better, I used the DJI antenna and broke from frame in a crash, so now I use the small whip antennas 👍

Hey there, thanks for your feedback, glad to have you here! Yes 10" is a good choice because the, larger props are going to be more efficient, allowing you longer flights and higher payload capacity for larger batteries and heavier things like cameras. GEPRC, Sequre, and many other companies offer affordable 10" prebuilt drones, or better yet you can purchase a frame and build it yourself. Your KV is about right for an efficient 10" build. For batteries I would recommend li-ion, 6s2p, with 21700 cells, which should give you around 8,000 mah. You can purchase the cells and build it yourself if you really know what you're doing or you can just buy one from iFlight or GePRC...

@@colibrifpv Thanks a lot. It was really helpful. I am sure I have a lot to learn from your channel.

@@fehmi35 Welcome to FPV, it's addictive and loads of fun 😁

I haven't tried a li-ion pack on this quad because I think it would be too heavy, 650mah 4s Lipo is the perfect battery for this little guy, and pretty lightweight. The only 4s li-ion pack I have is probably 3x or 4x the weight, so probably wouldn't pair too well with 2" props...

@colibrifpv are those 18650s? I haven’t seen anyone in this hobby use them - maybe there is some reason - but 18350s are still 1500 mah but almost half the length. Might be perfect for this size category of quads

That's awesome, you'll enjoy it! My advice is to take it slow, and remember that the first step is to get yourself a radio and download a simulator on your computer. Learn to fly there, then take your nano hawk to a gym or park with some open space and practice the basics. It's a huge learning curve at first, but it all starts to make sense after a while and you'll have a blast!

Goggle compatibility and picture quality. DJI 03 only pairs with DJI goggles. Analog works with any analog goggles.

No not yet, but it is being openly discussed by politicians and it is a real possibility. That said, people freak out and blow it out of proportion, IF there were a ban, existing gear wouldn't be affected, but certification of future products might be...

@colibrifpv Oh, I get it now! That's why I was so confused. I've seen a bunch of FPV drone videos lately, and a lot of them were recommending Google products over DJI or Fatshark, like those Walksnail goggles. Thanks for the info, man! I'm totally new to this whole FPV drone thing and still trying to figure it all out

@@a.christydjoko7773 No problem, there is a HUGE learning curve when you're new to the hobby, but it all makes sense after a while. My advice is to join a Facebook group like Beginner to FPV and ask some questions, most pilots are super helpful, and don't be hasty to buy expensive gear until you actually need it. Start with an ELRS radio and download a simulator. After you learn to fly, move on to a tinywhoop or a small digital like this GoFilm 20 or the BetaFPV Pavo20. Good luck!

I'm sorry to hear about your experience, Walksnail has been pretty rock solid for me, maybe try updating the firmware to the latest, double-check you antenna connections, and then test range and penetration in a safe spot until you feel comfortable again. Also, if you feel like you got a defective unit, Caddx is pretty good about returns and replacements, so you might want to check with them!

Yeah I'm not sure that's the Goggle sounds like noise in your build. Since version two the stock antennas regularly do 100km on everyone's Goggle's I know, 10 of us. Plus antennas are the cheapest part of a setup if you're not happy. But I'd work on the wiring of your build make sure you have as much distance or use capacitors to reduce the noise in your wiring. DJI is for the people with no desire to fly and don't want to fly more then 100 metres from themselves. DJI is single handedly responsible for the decline and regulatory stupidity in the hobby.

Thanks a lot for that, really glad to have you here 👍

Yes those motors will work on your 7" long-range, assuming the weight isn't over the top, and if you want better efficiency and longer flight times you could just use a motor output limit to get an equivalent KV closer to 1500...

Yes you can use you Goggles Integra and DJI remote, but keep in mind that the DJI O3 Air Unit is compatible with FPV Remote Controller 2, so be sure to double check that's the one you have before you purchase 👍

You have a point, it's good for the consumer to have options and competition, if one company dominates the market they can gauge us and we will have no where else to go...

Hey there, crossfire is a very good system, it's more expensive than ELRS and it's known to be reliable for long range. Since you already have a crossfire receiver, you might want to just buy a Tango 2, but if you want to have the option to run both crossfire and ELRS, you can buy a RadioMaster radio and a crossfire module to put in the back so you have the ability to run both...

Bought it separately from GepRC, it was $3. If you buy the frame from them you should pick one up 👍

Right? I'm loving mine too because I can fly it in way more situations than a 5". The "normal" version is basically the same thing minus the bling : )

That's good to know thanks for sharing!

Interesting perspective, remember that Walksnail is a division of Caddx, and Caddx has been making FPV camera for many years, including cameras for DJI, so they were an established company long before the Walksnail product line launched...

Hey there! No I really haven't had issues with them fogging up but I usually fly in the mountains were it is pretty cold. Ironically my old Skyzone O3o's were really great with preventing fogging and allowed you to control the fan manually. Have you tried changing the cooling settings in the Goggles X menu? Can't recall if they allow manual control of the fan or not...

@colibrifpv I didn't actually think of checking that, I'm gonna be flying later with them so I'll have a look thanks

Gotta keep em, I've still got a pile of analog quads I like to fly, and ironically, my Skyzone O3o's are the most comfortable goggles I've ever owned!

That's my philosophy, I wanted to see both systems for myself...

I agree the O3 should not be written off and will still be relevant as a cheaper option for a good while, after all, I'm still flying the original Caddx Vista on older quads and enjoying them 👍

Moonlight records to sd card like 03. I have both. Both is the answer. 03 wins in good light, moonlight wins at dusk and night. Simple

@@sjag8989 I think you've summed it up very nicely there! It is pretty nice to have a DJI alternative for those who prefer not to buy DJI gear...

International shipping does take a little while, especially with the holiday surge. Hope it arrives soon 🤞

@ Illinois 2 weeks. That’s local not international for me 🤣🤣

@@Hopelesswanderer81 Oh man, that's frustrating, I've been there where it comes from overseas super fast then sits in Oakland for like a week (I'm from SF)

Really? How so, DVR quality or something else?

@colibrifpv haven't been able to get it to fly and not cut out in mid flight... I will never fly this vtx very far from the ground or over water, just not going to do it. It randomly freezes in flight. Headset and other walksnail systems are just fine together, leading me to the Moonlight Vtx issues. What I do record with it, until it, freezes looks pretty good, which makes this even more frustrating. I have not given up with it yet. Two avenues not explored yet are power problems or firmware problems. It worked fine on my Pavo20Pro, so I am hoping the fc pad the power is coming from is the issue. I think it's a 5v pad which maybe coming up short when the power demand from Moonlight demands it causing the issues.

You are not alone, many people prefer DJI, but Walksnail is now a very good option with some advantages over DJI!

It depends on your needs and budget... if you are a hobbyist and like to tinker, want full control over loads of settings and don't mind things being rough around the edges in order to gain those advantages, Walknsnail could be your best bet, and you can find their systems on sale.... the Goggles L are around $200. If you want a polished system that "just works", and don't mind a little extra cost, than DJI would be a great option. If you do want to go with DJI, I highly recommend the Goggles N3 so you will have compatibility with the next generation of "04" Air Units which have not been released yet. Which system are you leaning towards?

@ I WAS leaning more toward DJI. Having owned and flown DJI Enterprise drones for years, I was waiting on the O4 to release and see its offerings. They have been building the best camera drones for sometime. Then again DJI has always been more expensive and some would say stubborn (not really known for listening to a community). Right now, I thinking about starting with walksnail, if for no other reason Caddx has been involved in the FPV community longer. Plus, I’ve liked Caddx products back when I began building my own quads.

@@VinceB391 Enterprise drones eh? Very cool! What industry? There is no doubt that DJI has the more advanced tech, they set the bar and Caddx plays catch up, but as you said, Caddx is way more supportive of the community because that's their niche. The point of this video was that Caddx finally did catch up to the DJI O3, a major accomplishment..... but it took them a few years, and DJI is about to leap ahead again with O4!

@@colibrifpv LE/S&R. Started with an M210 and progressed from there. Later we got several Autel 640T’s. Then, transferred to the Autel Max last year. I recommended the M30T, but the powers that be refused due to cost (1 drone for the cost of 4). I purchased my own M3T, but sold it earlier year after retiring…. Hopefully DJi leaps ahead, but then Caddx will leap ahead of them and so on. It’s never ending. Most likely I’ll wait and see what the O4 offers before finalizing a decision. I’m in not hurry.
