Hey man....I just tried the dental floss trick for the ESC and it worked ! That's how valuable your tutorial is....I've watched it multiple times. Thanks again!
Great tutorial! I found it really helpful! I have just one advice as an electrical engineer when it comes to soldering - if you can, use leaded solder and add a lot of flux on the soldered coated pads before soldering the wires. Generally gel flux works better than those flux pens. At the end the leaded solder joint should be shiny. I recommend leaded solder, because it's still used in aerospace industry thanks to its superior resistance to vibrations. Cheap lead-free solder, especially one without a healthy amount of silver, such as the cheapest Sn 99.7% Cu 0.3%, is prone to cracking and I would not recommend it for use in drones, as it can give up on you after a few crashes or worse - in flight.
I am not a promoter for any type or company of fpv but I mysef learned how to build through TH-cam university and a xilo 6s hd complete build kit. There are many types of diy fpv build kits on the market that is a great starting point to learn how to build following a step by step video. Only thing I truly recommend is learning how to solder properly . Rotor riot has solderless solder free builds but in the world of fpv soldering is usually a must have skill for repairs and believe me when I say you will crash and need to repair
@@trentondrones6429 I want a good low light camera for sunsets so I was going to buy a Mini 3 Pro but I ran across some of these custom drones and I am wondering if I can build a custom one with an even better camera. No idea though, just started my journey on this
Built my 1st one about 5-6 years ago. Crashed it so hard it burst into flames lol. Finally decided to rebuild and try again, and this video was a huge help/quick guide to remind me that it's not really as hard as it seems. Side note, trying to solder with not so steady hands sucks lol.
Holy shit thats insane lmao My first drone build never even flew. Plugged in a lipo and immediately went to smoke. I soon found out about smoke stoppers and hasn't happened to me again (Knock on wood)
Congrats, you are one of the few in drone/RC who can solder! Most videos I saw they heat up the tin and then try to put it on the lead or pad, so one could get cold spots later.
Just some support to people nervous, long time line of sight planker here. I have quite a bit of soldering practice but I decided to build my own drones. Was a headache at first, but used jb’s guide eventually and built up a few drones and had a small fire or two but now I am building some sick drones and encourage others to try. Very satisfying and think it would have gone way easier if I followed a diy kit off the bat. You all can do it!
Another awesome build video! Very clear and concise. I did your $150 build and regret NOT going digital. I will probably build this one next and just go all in with the DJI digital setup. Thanks dude!
I made the leap from analog to digital last year at somepoint. Although the VTX/Camera cost is significantly more, it is so so so worth it.. I still have a couple analog quads and can hook up my rapidfire module to my DJI goggles otherwise everything else is converted to digital at this point. Thanks for watching!
@@TRONCATFPV I totally agree, I ended up winning a prize pack from J.B. that included a GepRC Crown HD CiniWhoop, that was the excuse I needed to purchase a set of DJI goggles. I’ve never looked back, digital is absolutely amazing 👍
THANK YOU! This is what I was looking for. I want to build my drones and since I have an electronic background but FPV is new to me. I know the basic components needed but the specs is were I struggle to understand. Hope to see more videos like this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bro you are my go to!! I've been wanting to build my first quad after repairing my DJI FPV using your vid "HOW TO CHANGE A DJI FPV ARM" and the confidence you have given me with your video is immeasurable!!! I will be building this drone within the next few weeks and will let you know how it went.
@@ambroszkiewiczadrian Dude it was actually fairly easy with the help of Tron! Piece of advice when doing it be sure to keep all screws with the parts they come off, if you don't it can become very confusing. This vid makes it super easy though!!!
@@TRONCATFPV Nice dude!! Didn't see you commented on my post!! Thanks for the help bro it was clutch!!! I also watched an old video of yours where you built the whole drone at an eco price and I was gonna do it but couldn't find all the part you listed. Any advice on a durable build for someone first going manual?
I've been building PC's since the mid 2000's. This feels similar in that you just need to know what a full parts list should consist of before starting. I'd rate this is as slightly harder though since PC building is basically legos. The required soldering action for this makes it a bit harder for the true casual. That requires mechanical skill and also the ability to analyze a wiring diagram. I thought a DIY drone would be some highly complex stuff but my perspective was from a long time ago before the industry matured to what it is now. Thanks for the confidence boost for when I attempt mine!
There are a couple DIY FPV drones out there that require no soldering and instead use plugs for everything. Since with FPV you crash alot, its very valuable to know how to solder haha. Thanks for watching and good luck with the future build!
nice build. very clean! friendly tip, try turning up the temp on your iron a bit. I noticed the solder not quite getting to temperature when you were doing the battery leads on the ESC. thats a result of the iron cooling down too much. you can either turn the temp up or wait longer in-between soldering each pad. that way your soldered pad will be a nice dome shape with a mirror finish. which leads to a better and stronger connection. The hotter your iron is, the more you can do before it drops below the threshold to properly melt the solder.
@@TRONCATFPV oh okay yeah that should be more than enough. just need to let the iron heat up a bit more between pads. also a side note, on most pcb's the ground usually runs throughout the board to all other ground pads, so it pulls much more heat than non ground pads.
what do i need for gps navigation? is a barometer useful? what goggles would you recommend? which controller is best to use when starting from scratch?
Dude your Rock, thanks for the detailed video and how you show how to build and sodder correctly and where everything goes I enjoy this type of context again .Joe Nyc
Absolutely brilliant... You've earned my subscribe! Noob question - If a particular motor/esc/fc/controller etc isn't available, how can we know if the alternative will pair with the other existing parts?
Great job on the build and video !!! Nice conclusion flight as well! I thought I was the only one that shook during a build, my buddy and uncle made fun of me for it.
haha when you're working on such small electronics I think you're naturally gonna shake a little no matter how much practice you have lol. Thanks for watching!
Great video and I build my own as well the thing I noticed was the copper winding at the bottom of motor is hanging out and low! Ive never seen a motor like that so you may wanna watch it. Thanks for everything!
Your videos are amazing! I bought the parts for this build, but decided I'd print the frame. Would the TBS source One V5 work for this? Keep up the great work!
The remote depends on how you build the drone. In this video he used an ELRS RX/TX. So you'd need a remote with an ELRS transmitter. If you build or buy a drone with the DJI video system you can use the DJI FPV remote without adding a receiver.
Looks like a very effective tutorial video. Can I install this kit: Foxeer Predator V5 with VTX Eachine TX805 and use Eachine EV800DM. This is important to me because I do not want to spend a lot of money on first construction. thank you !!
For analog, your best bet would be to power the camera from the filtered 5v from the VTX. The trick is to attact the ground wire from the 5V output from the VTX to both the camera, and a ground pad near the OSD chip on the FC. This will help reduce OSD flicker. PropsOff has a good video on this; search TH-cam for VTX redundant ground and you'll find it. Good luck 👍
Love this video, thanks for making it. I have a dilemma. Everything works fine, but no OSD is showing in my goggles. I can see video from the Vista but no OSD. Am I missing something?
I have built about 10 drones. You got a thumbs up and sub for the rubber grommet/ dental floss trick. I hate that part. I hate those grommets. There have been times where I have put off a build because I was thinking of the terror of trying to get those stupid grommets in the mount holes. Those things had me punching myself in the face after putting spit on them to get them to slide in and cursing at them under the magnifying glass only to realize I put them in upside-down 🤦♂
haha i'm glad that tip helped you out 👍 Those grommets SUCK. I've put them in upside down before I knew this little hack. Thats the stuff of nightmares
hello , thank you for this awesome video , I cant fine Mamba basic F405 Stack anywhere even in the link in the description , can you put a new link to buy it
I am wanting to build one of these but I'm wanting a 7' long range Cruiser. I was wondering if they sell the plug-in because I don't have steady hands anymore. Also what would be the best battery. One more thing could you also tell me what receiver and transmitter would be best😊
I'm a petrochemical engineer who is exploring the idea of using drones (and I already know that they are being used in some places) to monitor equipment inside of plants. This was a great video and a good start. How are drones for steady video live view monitoring? Okay, there seems to be a lot I need to still learn. I will be looking forward to your next video and review your older ones, thanks again.
Hello there, I used your Video as a guide for my first Drone. Everything was running fine. Ty so much! Except of one little Problem. I connected my receiver with my contrroller. Betaflight shows me the Pitch, yaw, Roll and throttle. But when I move the switches, nothing happens. Do u know how to fix it? Ty
Where are you getting the screws for the camera mount and VISTA. I bought the same fame and vista but they didn't come with the screws that you are using
Thanks for the great video, I would like to build this and use my old Taranis with the ELRS is their anything I need to set in the Taranis model that's special for ELRS to work? Also have you had any failsafes using ELRS?
Haven't had any failsafes yet, then again I haven't really tested too crazy range. As far as the Taranis goes you'll just have to make sure you have the crossfire protocol installed and change from internal RF to External and you should be good! What model Taranis do you have exactly?
@@TRONCATFPV Thanks for the help its the Taranis X9D. So just turn Crossfire protocol and switch to external rf got it! Should I turn on Dshot for smoother flying or that doesnt mk a big difference?
Actually one more question are the dji goggles the only ones that can be used with the caddx vista kit if there are other can u give me one or 2 low price examples
compliments for the video, i watch part of the movie and i have noted that you have connected a capacitor to the connector of batterie, and it is useless .. not vantage I mean; if you want to use capacitor to compensate the inductance of power line you must connect the capacitor at the end of power line! then it means you must connect the capacitor at the end of power line, at the ESC board, directly to esc power input, do you agree?
hi, i am new to fpv drone and i want to make one similar to your. since i already own the dji goggle and controller so I want to replace the VTX kit with the DJI O3 VTX. I wonder if i need to do extra steps if i did so ?
Great vid!! A few questions (new to FPV) what set up would I need weather I build one or get pre built I plan on Getting the DJI headset with a tango 2 remote controller.
Thank you for this amazing video! I copied 95% of this and built my first drone from it and it flies wonderfully.
How many min. It flies in single charge
Why did you copy 95% instead of 100%? What was the 5% that you chose not to follow?

He didn’t clean his solder tip once either and dip in flux and a brass cleaning thingy.
Best thing to do is inhale the fumes. Its really good for muscle memory when handling the drone

Great vid!! A few questions (new to FPV) what set up would I need weather I build one or get pre built
I plan on Getting the DJI headset with a tango 2 remote controller.
