I finished my Tony build last week. I'm at 242g. Naked 03, Foxeer 45A aio with mp6000 and bluejay, brotherhobby 2004 1700kv, HQ triblades, 380 6s, and even a strip of green cob leds. Praying for a warm day to send it on a maiden. Very nice quality on the carbon and the cutting.
Sounds like a cool setup. That’s a lot of potential with O3 and 55Amp ESC. I’m guessing battery size can make or break the 250 gram limit. I’m going to try 4S for now. 242 grams is very impressive. Thanks!
@OneManUnmanned yeah ,no worries! I might as well fully disclose, but to get to this weight, I made some concessions. First, that battery strap is beautiful, but massive overkill at 5 or 6 grams, so I'm running a micro strap that's about 2 grams and is still plenty strong enough combined with the ummagawd (which I also cut down since it's longer than the battery), I'm using titanium m2 and some aluminum M3 hardware (stack screws are still steel, as are areas where needed for crazh strength), the Foxeer aio is only 8.6g vs the Speedybee at 10.1g. I fully naked8zed the 03 including the camera, then made new mounting pads from lightweight high density foam. The led strip is a 5cm long 4mm wide 6s cob that is wired up using 32 gauge magnet wire. So obviously I've compromised on durability, but this isn't a basher anyways, I live on the open prairies and we don't even really have many trees, so this is kind of an open park flyer that I can rip at the park in the middle of my small town. My goal was to see if I could get loooong flights by staying under 250g and run a 530mah 6s. If I lose another 5 g, I can do that at 249g...lol. This is mostly an experiment and by the time I'm done playing and just want to go rip hard, I'll replace it all of the hardware with high strength steel. I'm a licensed pilot, so 250g rule is moot anyway, I just thought it would be a fun goal to try and achieve. These arms will fold in any significant crash anyways, and I have basher for that style of flying. Looking forward to the full build and test videos, Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁🎅👊🏻
@@willpowerfpv3246 Wow that look a solid build. I'm a licenced pilot based in EU, but with the new regulations in Europe you only can fly FPV drones above 250g 150m from people. I do some off road races that sometimes have spectatores so I need to stick under 250g. What would be your advice for a similar drone and carry a naked gp 11/12 on it?
Please complete the build and tell us how how it performs. I found a sub250g 5 inch is damn hard to tune. Also t mount on a 5" sucks. Personally I love 4"
All true. I had a 2fiddy and tuning it was a B. Once I got it though it flew amazing. Gemfan had some 4.5” props that helped a lot with tuning (less prop wash). Might be worth trying some out if you can find them.
@@WindChillFPV The gemfan 4525 help to get a less floaty feel. But that is in the nature of an UL 5". My favourite props for the 5" UL so far are the Gemfan 5130. Tuning them was also more easy. Which UL 5" props do you like?
I did check out the 2 Fiddy, but I don’t own it, so I can’t compare the two. They do look very similar though. I would assume they perform very similarly.
I did fly it, but still in the tuning and reviewing phase. It's doesn't fly like a traditional 5 inch drone, but that might/should be expected since it's so much lighter than a regular freestyle drone.

Def gonna check this frame out. I would be scared about breaking an arm but it'll be fun crashing it!
It’s a cool frame..I’m also curious about crashing it. Thanks!
Nice review! I was wondering why there are no reviews on this frame. Glad you made one 👍🏽
Thanks, I appreciate it. I’m excited to get this one built as well. Thanks!

@@chrisbee5481 my fave were the 4.5” gemfans but the HQ T5x2x3 also worked decent.
Thanks for all the tips and advice..I have not started the build, but will in a couple of days.
Great video. Do you like this better than ummagawd's 2 fiddy frame?
I did check out the 2 Fiddy, but I don’t own it, so I can’t compare the two. They do look very similar though. I would assume they perform very similarly.
It's a giant geprc phantom. Modernized.
Perhaps..we’ll see how it flies soon.
Did you ever fly it? I looked through some videos after this one
I did fly it, but still in the tuning and reviewing phase. It's doesn't fly like a traditional 5 inch drone, but that might/should be expected since it's so much lighter than a regular freestyle drone.
Will this do 30x30 also ?
I like the build. However, in my experience with arms that small will break easily. Its the curse of 250g.
That’s what they say..we shall see in a few days.
Tony is a straight rip off of ummagawd’s twofiddy. Support the real ones
I haven’t taken a closer look at it, but maybe I can review that one as well. I appreciate that.
I would break Tony in a week 😂🤣
LOL…Very Possible. I’m not so hard on my drones, but a few crashes are likely.
I got a build video of this frame on my channel but great work man 🫡
Sweet..I’ll check it out. Did you get it completed under 250 grams? Thanks.
@OneManUnmanned 248 grams with 550 4s flies great actually about 4 and 1/2 min flight time
