    Great job modding. The results are really great looking.

      Thanks, yeah she turned out pretty good. I might preposition the camera to the LED spot and add some LEDs lower down but happy with the performance.

    Great mods. I'm always looking for ways to improve my quadcopters and your Video gave me some new things to try. Keep making these Videos.

      Cheers, GI. I actually changed the camera out since this and put a 16:9 board cam in the nose. There's a link to the playlist for the Bugs3 in the description if interested but i do thin it's nicer FPV experience. Still a couple things to try with this one too, fun quad.

    Love your review ad mods and great flying!
    Just a heads up, the top canopy doesn't need to be unscrewed, just squeeze the plastic lugs together and pull up each side of the canopy, so easy to get inside. The plastic lug screws are for replacing the lugs should you damage one.
    I am holding off any mods to see what MJX comes up with in terms of camera's. This is my first brushless so need LOS practice anyway before trying FPV. I've had around 60 flights with the bugs 3 and absolutely love it. I have ordered some 3s batteries and 6045 BN and tri-blade props!
    Again, great view!

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ahh, so it does! Thanks for the canopy tip.
      As for what MJX may bring out, i'm going to hazard a guess it's not going to be 5.8ghz and they will offer a wifi setup to smartphone. I hope i'm wrong but there's only a 5v socket free inside and one cable for camera to be told take a pic or video.

    Thanks! By installing battery strap I saved 30grams (20 g for bugs3 battery case and 10 g for battery holder). It was not so easy and took some time - I had to unscrew board, tilt it up with ESCs, measure central of gravity with future battery installation, make appropriate holes with soldiering iron). Now I have much better balanced and lightweight drone.

      Cheers bud. Just dusting this one off for some flights with the Bugs2.
      I think I prefer the Bugs 3 for pure flying but the Bugs 2 is more appropriate for a beginner.

    • @RobbyRCPROBE
      @RobbyRCPROBE 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The big advantage of the bugs 2 would be the GPS on-board. At the moment I stay with the good old bugs3, but future plans could be the 2 for my purposes. Look already forward to your videos on this topic. Hereby I also subbed on your channel and a big thumb up. Please also check my channel on the bugs3. Lets keep in touch. Robby BUGS3 CH.

    Great mods,waiting for odd for battery voltage to do start my fpv set up,the full battery voltage comes out the light.I gotta 800 tvl 170 degrees camera I will replacing the light with and using the et 600 vtx and will run the wire for the antenna separate like you done because of the heat the vtx puts out.The eyes were very creative.The tx on this bird has to go though.Tried to do a manual flip the gyros got drunk for about 5 secs.

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think you can get away with no uptilt if you use a wide camera like I did and mounting in the nose is a better long term idea. The pitch isn't enough to lose the horizon flying fast down low.

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you know what protocol it uses or you planning on putting a new RX and/or FC in?
      The freaking out while flipping with anything but stock blades was uprising. I'd love rate mode on here, only thing it's missing.
      What don't you like about the TX?

    • @modshobs1014
      @modshobs1014 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +MicroRCFiend It's on the a7105 rf chip module so it's probably a variant of flysky or hubsan.I took test captures with a tx I had ordered before my bugs arrived and uploaded them to deviation forum,goebish checked them and told me the info I just told you.My bugs finally arrived last week and the bugs tx I took the captures with doesnt bind to my bugs which is really strange.I might of fried something when soldering the pins on the rf chip.Anyway,I ordered another bugs tx 2 days ago because I don't want to mess up the one that came with the quad.If we get this deviated we can fly it with a hobby grade transmitter,modded walkers devos,I got the 10 and the 7e both with the a7105 modded in.It will give the bugs better range and gimbal inputs to say the least.I know that the stock tx has telemetry but the feel in hands and inputs are terrible,at least that's my experience. Its's a nice bird but my x16 flown with a devo will fly circles around the bugs.

    OUTSTANDING MODS,, i REALLY LOVE THE EYES,, and its always cool when the puppys
    get in the act!. I should have some props coming in soon, I think I got the idea from Tigger? the prop nuts came in the mail a week ago.. I see no jello in your camera..

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. I'm not sure if a hard mounted camera woudl still be as jello free but I may try that also soon.
      Good look with your Bugs

    Hi. You have changed the LEDs. Which ones do you have? And another thing, how do you hold the lipo 3s battery?
    Thank you!!

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Check about 1:20 to around 1:40 for led and lipo strap modifications. Just 2 blue leds with resistors and holes in the base plate to feed a strap through I made with and old soldering iron tip. I removed the lipo cage but it can still be fitted alongside the strap if needed.

  • @KddVrgO
    @KddVrgO 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where did you find the mini connectors for the the LEDS you installed?? I want to add light too but red. I also want to power it directly from the 5v input like you

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No idea where I got those ones from but looking on BG and ebay, ebay looks the cheapest by far.
      Pretty damn sure this is about half the price I paid for twice as much and it's silicon wire which mine certainly are not and require lots of finesse to solder without shrinking back the shielding. It's from Honkers though so could be a slow boat, ~ UK that means 2 - 5 weeks usually for me but occasionally small letter post like this will get through quicker

      If you need quicker just search that same title and you should get options closer to you.

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Same connector type 1.25 pitch 3 pin but anything will work or even direct solder. I just used what I had in my box of spares and wanted to be ab'e to swap things out easy.

  • @andrealopresti41
    @andrealopresti41 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Without camera and foot landing, with 3S battery and 6045 propellers it is more responsive and sporty the Mjx Bugs 3 or jjrc x1/ Xk x251? Thank you

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The pitch is decent but rates are fairly tame on the Bugs so it more limited than the X251 in regards to flying round trees and being nimble. LoS bashing i'd choose X251 but for FPV definitely not. Both are fine for flying fast circuits but the X251 is much worse in heavy wind.
      I have no experience with the JJRX X1 but if it has a betaflight flashable board you get full rate mode and PIDs to dial in which has potential to fly superb.

  • @JohnCuppi
    @JohnCuppi 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great mods! I want to do something similar but with my runcam 2. Literally have a TS5823S being delivered tomorrow. One question I have however is why you are using a 12v BEC. Operating Voltage of TS5823S is 7V - 24V so it should be able to just tap power directly from the bugs without any issue?

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That may work great but I just wanted to try and give the VTX as clean a power feed as possible, kinda like an extra layer of defense against motor noise and I had a bag of them in my spares I know I can trust to do that.
      I can't say I speak on anything but an educated guess but a constant voltage would logically be easier to deal with than the changing one at the source.
      I also read that giving a wide input voltage VTX like this 7 to 24 is generally going to perform 'cleanest' around the middle of it's total rating but who knows unless you scope stuff with motors running...
      To be fair I had not tried this VTX before, direct may work perfectly too but not filtering video properly can quickly kill my FPV enjoyment in most quads.
      Good luck with your mods, shes really calming to fly. Had another session yesterday between ultra powerful brushless quads and I still loved it.

  • @tonil6604
    @tonil6604 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    did you only take the yellow wire from the cam and hook it up to the vtx? the cam himself gets the power from the cam port on the board, right? which voltage range has your cam? I wanna build my own fpv bugs 3 today! you would help a lot!

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, that is how I did it.
      My cheapy Cmos 16:9 cam was 5v, same as that port puts out.
      If you pause at 00:59 it is visible for a few seconds with labels but yeah, you are correct.
      I used separate BEC for VTX. Lipo input would work too but may have more noise from the motors

    • @tonil6604
      @tonil6604 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      MicroRCFiend i got a vtx which is powered by a separate 1s. a runcam micro swift and a eachine atx 03. this vtx can only handle 3.3-5v and has a lipo connector. it's my first time fpv and didn't wanna do something wrong. but your video helps a lot! thank my friend

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Much lighter than my setup too that way.
      You can run everything from that connector too if you need.

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought i answered this one but I don't see a reply.. Sorry if it has..
      The VTX I used and linked in the description are both Boscam frequencies so anything from Eachine or basically not fatshark/immersion unless they specifically say they support Boscam or have a Boscam module added.
      Goggles like I use like masks start out around £40 and go go up depending on features and quality. Diversity is absolutely worth considering and so is an internal DVR if you wish to record the live feed. That starts about £60 and up..
      I just tried a 16:9 camera in the nose today and I think I prefer the FPV experience to the low slung camera. Video will be up in a couple days.

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm using King Kong 6045BN on 3S although they work ok on 2s also. I didn't leave a link because BG no longer sell them.
      Surveilzone sells DAL 6045BN v1 that are close to identical. V2 have rounder tips so more efficient with a bit less power but I have not tried them. Super tough and fly exactly like the KK ones
      www.surveilzone.com/DAL-2-Pairs-6045-CWCCW-Bullnose-Props-for-FPV-Racing--g-1427
      I ordered some triblade 6045 too but those could well kill ESC if flown hard on 3S but no one seems to have done as yet.
      The motors are 1806 size with 5mm threaded shafts. You need 2 x CCW and 2 x CW nylock nuts.

      I also recommend a ratchet tool if you don't have one. Way faster and less hassle and well worth £2. Doesn't need to be crazy tight, just hand tight. The outside of the 5mm nylock threaded nuts above is 8mm so the 6mm/8mm one is compatible.

    @jangorczyca5830 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello. Nice mods. Is it true that 6045BN King Kong props because of "BN" took more current? Is there possiblity to burn ESC if I use this propellers in bugs 3?

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes Blunt Nose props certainly draw more current than normal tips of prop with same size. They are smaller than stock props but a lot more aggressive
      It is certainly a possibility but I could not cause ESC failure after 30 -50 flights running them on 3S and I pushed them pretty hard so i continue to run them on my B3.

Realy glad that those props and 3S worked out as mine are still on order, any day now,also realy nice to know that 2S can handle the 6045S' . Never flown FPV time i made a start me thinks, looking for a simple set up goggles camera and such, also be nice to film FPV footage could you fill me in on that as well, any info would be much appreciated. :)

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      You'd need to ask some actual questions or specific desires for me to help with 'filling you in' on FPV options since there's literally too many options to mention. If you want to do FPV with the Bugs3 then you will need to add the gear yourself and you can add internally or add externally such as a Runcam with video transmitter attached or go pro in the holder. I heard they may well bring out a 5.8ghz version so there could well be a drop in part at some stage also.
      There's many reasons for each choice but I can't tell you what is right for you. I wanted lightweight and crashproof and wasn't too concerned with HD and this is what I had on hand. We need to narrow down what type of setup is right for you...
      If wanting to start out with some FPV experiments I would thoroughly and heartily recommend starting with a ducted type brushed setup with 59000 rpm motors if flying inside or one of whatever brushed 1s micro appealed to you the most for something more suitable outside in good weather..
      Personally I dig the QX95 which I just uploaded a video of and it's as close to a perfect FPV trainer as I could want for £50.
      Once you get a little confidence and experience with one of those, you will be able to fly anything larger. It also gives you chance to choose/try goggles and decide if you just want to watch the feed or maybe record it too. Do you want diversity, HDMI, headtracking or other things...
      Drop me some info if you can and i'll point you towards some specific options or setups.

    • @markwestbrook3313
      @markwestbrook3313 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Will defo do that, it's a bit mind boggling for someone who has no experience and am totally alone in this as fly alone, my brother in law is just getting into the hobby, so possible we go down this road together, need a spotter if you are outside, will get back to you soon. Thanks for your quick and helpful response 😀

      Thanks, it's a 1.25mm pitch 3 pin molex, has lots of names depending on who you speak to or which shop you find it but those specs will be correct. www.banggood.com/5-x-1_25mm-Pitch-3-wire-Steering-Plug-For-Walkera-WL-V977-Nine-Eagles-p-940332.html?p=UI14032168777201508N A friend tried the same with a different higher power draw CCD Runcam and had issues but it's fine with most 5 CMOS. He ended up just using a seperate BEC for his setup but since I used one for my VTX anyway and his camera was 12v capable it wasn't an issue. Link for those if needed although they aren't 100% clean video and you get some micro diagonal lines from the switching. www.banggood.com/3A-UBEC-Module-Low-Ripple-Bluesky-Mini-Switch-Mode-DC-BEC-5V-12V-2-6S-Supply-p-993056.html?p=UI14032168777201508N

    @coryrandolph8501 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    When you were looking into this could you tell if it would be possible to add a separate (Flysky, FrSky, DSM) PPM receiver to this to use different transmitters? Or is it PWM or something that wouldn't work out right?

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The RX is separate so another could in theory be added but there's a bunch of uncertainties such as would they calibrate in the normal way, endpoints needed etc. I'm not even sure if it's PPM or PWM but I think maybe the RX board has some PPM channels marked.
      Apparently it is currently being deviated so that will be one option of using a different TX.
      If it was running CF or BF or some other firmware with a GUI it would be simple enough to add an RX of choice through just trial and error.
      The only other way would be to swap out the FC and RX which I have considered but quiet like it in it's current configuration so no major rush to do that.

      The ESC are 12A. It's pushing them to even use triblade 6" so I wouldn't advise.

      Not really. I asked several people who said or showed they upgraded but never got an answer on this. One guys said his friend just didn't bother but that seems very odd if so. If you use deviation or open tx to bind then calibration on power up would hopefully work as normal but with stock model and upgraded ESC I do not know for sure.

      @@MicroRCFiend well in other regular quads, the consensus is to power up the esc,receiver and motor then throttle up and turn on the transmitter here a sound and then throttle down. But since receiver and board are in one, I might just do the same procedure on the board. New to these drones but have been racing touring cars and offroad nitros. I am going to attempt to put it in bind mode similar to those Spectrum bind tabs that have 2 grounds and see what happens..just still waiting for the esc's from amazon. But my plan

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you wanted to fly aggressively round trees for LoS the X251 is way more agile and compact and possibly durable.
      If you wanted to add FPV gear, the Bugs runs away with it for me. It's going to handle heavier wind much better too plus 3S capable so lots of torque as well as decent speed, LVC beeper on TX and modular components should and ESC get cooked.

      This MJX FC does not have that function. There is no easy way way to activate a buzzer from the transmitter.
      Swapping the FC out would allow this but has more complications such as receiver wiring, endpoint adjustments etc

    Can you straight put in a 3s battery on it?

    • @MicroRCFiend
      @MicroRCFiend  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes stock Bugs 3 will take 3s lipos. I chose to downsize props to 6" for 3S as it flies better and has no wobbles. Impossible to tune PIDS on this craft so this was my work around to wobbles produced on 3s with stock props.
      I cannot promise you will never blow ESC on 3S but I have had over 70 aggressive flights and it seems stable. So far I have only used max 2200mah 3s - it may take larger but again, that is more stress for ESC if heavier lipos are used.

      Actually just going to list this for sale on FB and maybe RCG later today. I found the Bugs6 better for new pilots to try FPV as it's much tamer and smaller and I put an even better camera in it.
      For LoS new pilots I like to give them Bugs2 so not really flying the excellent Bugs3 any more. It's a great starter quad though.

      @MicroRCFiend  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Like I said several times, this is for noobs to try FPV with so I will certainly not be spending my RC budget putting a better camera in it, I used what I had and love wide cams for gentle pleasure cruising (yes with wide goggles). Absolute latency is not an issue on this sedate cruiser. Other choices are always going to be subjective such as FOV so don't expect everyone to agree with your opinions, I certainly don't
      Now of course you are free to do what you like with your models or if you would like to donate a superb camera, i'll be glad to fit it, do a comparison and give you a shout :)
      The Lizard looks aggressive and solid, will be interesting to see if I prefer it over the 2s A100 power setup, they did a lot right with it just holding it in my hands and looking at specs but probably gonna be a week or so before I get round to flying it. Lipos start to get expensive again it seems with small 3S high C, have you found any affordable ones closer to £5 then £10?.
      I found my replies to posts that are then deleted by users do often disappear. Often people ask questions that are answered in the video description then understandably, delete the extraneous post. I found your other though, it had hotlinks in it so youtube chucked it in my spam box, another over sensitive youtube 'feature' although it does keeps scores of actual junk and spammy hotlinks. It was mostly duplicate so I deleted it from there rather than have two similar posts.

      The ones you linked (or any 6045BN) should work fine but i'd be going for DAL if there were no KK available. They fly close to identical, are much cheaper than those you linked and i'd bet money a heck of a lot tougher too. Postage is free from them also.
      www.surveilzone.com/DAL-2-Pairs-6045-CWCCW-Bullnose-Props-for-FPV-Racing--g-1427
      They actually updated them and made a v2 because the BN style are so inefficient and there's a strong chance that slightly less aggressive tip would also fly great. I don't have any tri or quad 6 inch props but i'd expect that to be a positive experience also.

    Sorry for the bad review they seem to be nice. I got a bad one but I want a new one to at least fly. I had 28 years of tattooing people from around the world. With a hurt back! Got surgery was fine. Moved to Florida. Started tattooing in my house! They set me up for a drug bust. I did not rat on anyone I was tattooing. I did not do the drug. But went down for it. A big drug dealer knew if I was in there I was not going to rat. And I had tattooed real big hitters, if I knew rats, l grew up NJ. They road to the pine barrings trees. In a trunk. But snitches get stitches, and then put in ditches. I grew up in knowing these people. Bikes, gangs, most gangs brands out in life, I tattooed dea, FBI, cia, cop, three star general, every walk of life, I'm a locksmith, woodworker, designer, I sew, I flew planes all my life, and my dad too. So I was young, we built the stuff we ran, there was not know RTR. We did it all. I flew choppers, I weld, stick, tight, mig, I'm a mill right I have a 1934 mill I fixed and run, I own a plotter and was selling windows all the time. Sandblast glass sell mug, car windows, murilas, add I was a ninja for 12 1/2 years, equal to 5 degree black. Master of weapons, made my own, chemistry, l fabricate, we owned a screen printing place I learned all my self, closed hurt we had a consignment store closed hurt, I live in a big house with salt pool, just had my great freind old age die in front of me, did not leave her side, hand feed her and gave her water by hand she went parilized in a total of 8 hour. Started with The tail and then each lim. One lag at a time. Now I'm hurting at the same time, I thought I had friends in life, but everyone used me for tattooing, I'm to hurt to tattoo closed Pauls Tattoos in plant city fl. 33566. My cell is 813-375-0637. I have not received not one friend come here or just call. Do you know what it like no to talk to no one, wife 32 years love her, but just freinds, so barely moving, can't lift alot, I just wanted a drone fast light, and did not need camera, my daughter bought me a nice one. And did all the reveiws and I got the bugs, flew it my house without camera, and flew nice, loved it it brought back some pathetic life in me. And then rain and wind, but I would still just look at it. And when all the wind was calm and no rain, I was told never fly in bad condtions. But I knew how to fly, so I got family here and we took it out side, put in middle of road, I started motors up stick, and stopped at 5 feet spun around took pic of family, turned back around and up to 25 feet just to see naborhood and sat there moved up a foot, and it just took off strait up. Way higher then 400 feet. I was telling everyone I was afraid because we are in plane runway turn around in air zones airspace. And I know I never go above 100.feet. Here, but bugs had no control. It beeped and still flew away, I lost it in the air. It was dangerous. If that would have hit a aircraft. And killed someone, but I see; the reviews on internet on bugs, I had a bad one. But I still want one I can fly, I just bad eletronics, I flew 8 channel heli, and it was not like I learned the wrong way. I did the 4 foot square and a foot and two feet off the ground, then I tryed sky viper in wind and I flew it like a champ, counting the wind swirls, thermal swirl, polits know what I'm taking about. And never crashed. I have a bad deal, MJX said they won't replace it if it was in a tree. If it was I would cut tree down. But it never came down. It was not wind, or anything I did. It was MJX gave me a broken drone, and I just want a gift back I should have never lost. If it was my error I would eat it. Do you know how many cars, trucks, boats, planes, helicopters I crashed in my error, alot, and no going after new from company, but this should be made right, if I had a guy in life that bought something and it was bad. I fixed it for them. I'm not trying to get something for free I want some happiness back I had. And I'm getting help. But they don't help. I need to TAttoo again, but when you able to do as much as me. And can't do nothing! I put all my batterys on storage charge. I'm not a beginner ask them to make it right. I built my own guitar and wound my own pickup, and I play Right handed I'm left, tattoo left, I play drums sax was learning, when you get hurt age 19 you find things to do. I did run a motor off of water, and I always knew electronics, build boards, but now I sit in a chair. No dirt bikes, I build motors big and small, I know tiny motors, I can rewind stators, I was told master of none, but 8 th grade education is a way of knowing. I had to master all before moving on, to the next. So people are wrong. But unable to do anything I have parlizing pain. But can fly drones. Lmao I don't under stand why they won't replace a legit reason. I'm fighting for disability do you know what its like to be on top of the world and lose everthing. Moved to Florida my wife asked the movers if they had theifs workers they said no, they weight the truck before and got to fl, the truck lost 800 pounds of toys and I had three of the same systems every game ever made. Tools, daughters had every board game made, 3000.00 bike, two, all my collections and I had a lot. But I have alot I got in fl. 8 dirt bikes four wheelers go carts. Trade for tattoos lots of guns, had 5 1911's one was 1,800 Dan wesson. 2000 each two desert eagles. Rifles, ars, shotguns, had to sell and make ends meet, sold my toyota celica GT 2001 nice 4'500. All because my back, and all I wanted was a little racer. Is that to much to ask.
