Hello, I appreciate your videos. You have great content! I recently discovered your channel and watched several of your older flight controller videos. My question is which flight controller would you recommend for a flying wing that will give flights ability for now and eventually flight? The wing will be about 40 inches.
If you search for ExpressLRS long range tests, then you will see how far pilots are getting. Using higher powers isn't legal in lots of places... Happy flying
Most of the receivers I'm using here these days are from RadioMaster or BetaFPV. Speedybee make some very nice stuff so I would happily still use one..
Isn't it a bit big for a normal one antenna RX? According to the data sheet it does not have TXCO. Especially compared to the happymodel EP1/2 with TXCO it seems to be double in size but lacking features. Just wondering what for?
Yeah, I keep hearing complaints about design defects and quality control issues. Their stuff is extremely ambitious, but they really need to be more careful. If they'd just be reliable, they'd be among my favorites.
First batch of the v3 stack bad a lot of the ESC's pop a FET. Mine did after plugging in the 3'd lipo on it. On 4s with a capacitor. Haven't heard that happen to the V4.
I think that was what @helidude71 was alluding to. I used the V4 in the QUAD Build for Beginners series over Xmas and it has worked flawlessly. I think that Speedybee learned a lot from that and form the pushback from pilots who had issues with the V3. All I can say is that, if I build something with it - you can usually bet it is a pretty solid product ;)
Please excuse my ignorance, I'm not new to r/c in general but am to the FC/tiny receiver aspect of it. I've been away from the hobby for years and just getting back into it. How many channels are these receivers capable of?
Check out my series on ExpressLRS. You can have 16 channels on one reciever with SBUS or CRSF (for flight controllers and stabilisers), or bind multiple PWM recievers at the same time too... Happy flying
@@Painless360 my apologies, I don't have elrs (yet)...I bought the Speedybee 405 Wing and a Boxer multi-protocol to set up in a Ranger 2000 for fpv. I've seen these tiny receivers, elrs and others, but don't really know how it all works other than the fact that they need a FC.
I was in quadcopters during the time of KK controllers. I want to see ELRS receiver integrated with FC, baro, ESC, OSD, VTX, then I'll pull the trigger.
Kk board! I remember those days. Simonk custom flashed escs. Generic carbon frame and a Sony ccd camera. Big ugly silver and gold motors. Dual blade props with massive silver prop adapters that always flew off. When flying quads was really flying quads. 😂😂😂
Ah, the days of needing 8 PCBS to get a quad to fly with FPV (FC, 4 x ESCs, MINIMOSD, receiver, VTX and a low res crappy 600TVL FPV camera too. All hand soldered and all programmed using a PC or a FTDI adapter - and that isn't counting the GNSS config you needed to do if you wanted to add a GPS :D
SpeedyBee reminds me of Matek, but more affordable.
Fantastic review, Lee! Thanks! 😃
Honestly, you gotta love SpeedyBee... They've been killing it!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I really like their stuff! And for 10$ for a receiver, this is huge.

I use INAV a lot here, see th-cam.com/video/Y12tAXnGptY/w-d-xo.html for the options.. best of luck
there mario 5 DC i purchased is awesome. flys smooth and stable jst like the other more expensive brands.
Just ordered one
Awesome
hi, would u use this rc on a volantex ranger 2000? (to have 11-12 km of range)
i use a radiomaster tx16s (ERLS internal module)

Pcb design it's top notch.. but I'm agree if they not make us suffer with trial rx with v1. And then v2.. and then v3.. and then v4 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Another vendor!! Good news
The cheap is about to get a lot cheaper 😂
I love it!
Time has passed. What's your thought on this RX, Painless360?

Looks good, very affordable.
gotta buy one, tnx! 444 pesos lang sa shopee
Please upload full flash and bind video
Already done for WiFi updating. See ExpressLRS video.
Let's hope we don't need to wait for a V4 to get the design bugs out.

Agreed. Currently have around 50 packs through my SB F7 V3 stack, it has been flawless so far.

Hi,These are techinally capable upto 16 ch but depepnds on what u use them on,On drones these are different and there are pwm elrs recievers

th-cam.com/play/PLYsWjANuAm4q-i0YGMJGLOfaYIuNIYPfF.html will show you how it all works !:D

I've seen lots of them for whoops, so I don't think it'll be long (if they are not already out!)
They should do that with their wing fc... That would be pretty unique!
