Another terrific 3.5-inch frame is the Hobbymodel Crux35 frame kit - very inexpensive, light, and it flies great. Using inexpensive Happymodel 1404-3500Kv motors and a Caddx (DJI) Vista/Nebula Pro Nano HD digital VTx, mine is under 200g total including a 4S 650mAh LiPo battery. The frame is tiny with only enough room for a single stack of 3 boards. The Caddx Vista is two boards thick so going digital here requires a 4-in-1 (or All-In-One “AIO”) flight controller/ESC. A great fit is the JHEMCU GHF420AIO-20A which, at 20-amps, is priced well and uses the better 168Mhz F405 chip instead of a cheaper 100MHz F411 chip. Bonus points if you get a AIO with ELRS built-in like the Happymodel CruxF405HD ELRS AIO (20A ESC).
save a backup of the firmware on your FC before you flash anything! this will save you in the future if you make any changes or if the new version of Beta flight has bugs
Built this bad boy but with the T motors and swapped the VTX for a walksnail moonlight. Its no longer sub 250 grams but thats not really as much an issue in Aus as it is in the US. Cheers for the parts list!
Im doing this. Gonna get one of those viewers as well so I can do FPV stuff. Recreation for now but when the boogaloo happens I will be able to avoid being on the front lines.
I had diagonal lines like that once in my feed, turned out the 5v regulator was causing them. I could actually see the issue with an oscilloscope as well
depends if it only happens while flying, does it happen on the bench at all? so those lines look like a voltage ripple rather than say interference. Check the BEC, then check if you have a ground loop, or something creating EMI. I know @propsoff goes into detail about grounding. Also length of wire can pick up freq, or if it's running over something causing EMI.
Love the content! Did a similar build myself but with a folding 4” frame. Was this flight also on stock betaflight pid’s? Maybe it’s an idea to do a comparisson video with this build , the 7” and the 10” all on stock betaflight vs. a pid preset on it? Should be very interesting to see I guess. Anyway, thanks for another video :) Looking forward to the next one!
i just got a babyape ii (6s version) and they put the capacitor in that same place. i didn’t put thread lock on the screws though and they must have been a bit loose from the factory so some of the parts stripped! i’ll need to order some new columns and stuff from them. lesson learned.
DarwinFPV 1504 motors are $28 for 4. They would be a alternative to the motors used. I've used them in 4 different builds. They are pretty solid. They come in 6S too.😯
I've been thoroughly inspired by your videos and can't wait to dive into this hobby. One of the cleanest analog footage I've ever seen! How'd you do it?

Would love to know a digital option for video other than the dji 03 air. Goggles / VTX/Camera etc... I am brand spanking new to all this and I dont want to spend the cash on analog to just switch to digital later.
Great video! Thanks for the information. I've been thinking about getting into the FPV hobby so very helpful. For a beginner should I go the Mobula 8 whoop route first then look at assembling my own or just jump straight into building my own?
Yeah for learning to fly, the Mobula8 or Mobula7 are good choices. The mobula8 for more outdoors flying, the mobula7 is good for more indoor flying. This build video is good for a first build, but for learning to fly I recommend tinywhoops since they don't break easily
hi, im very new to custom fpv building, i hace a question. The camera and googles are a separate part of the drone, i mean u can choose whatever u want for your build right?
You're getting all these AliExpress parts. Can you talk more about long-term use for these drones? I'm super interested in all your builds but slightly worried about the long- reliability.
@@hoardersam10 can you tell what makes the ysido motors Sus? Is it just that they aren't a known brand and thus they don't have a history yet, or they make some sort of worrying sound or something?

@@hoardersam10 thx for your reply! this vid hit it on the head towards what i was looking for, earned a sub btw. Impressive that it's even possible for it to fly so good on stock pids! I'll do this build. So far pids tuning is like the main thing that always kept me from builds other than the ones i found fitting cli or presets for. The zillion vids 'tune your quad in 5 minutes' that last 40 mins minimum and involve blackbox nerd level 5000, yeah no, unfortunately i have a life too... 😅😂
Buy a remote and a simulator on your PC, practise until you are comfortable and then buy a whoop to learn IRL. Once you're comfortable on a whoop a drone like this is a big step up in capability 😁
Thx a lot for the detailed info in this video. I trashed one of my first builds not too long ago (a 2,5" 4S ripper that had a flyaway and I disarmed it way too late). Very similar electronics and an analog vtx (+runcam nano). I've already spotted this specific frame to reuse fc, esc and vtx in it. I'd like to pair it with some light 1804 GEPRC speedX2 3450kv motors and your recommended Ratel cam. What do you think about that?
Will power cycling the drone three times allow the receiver to enter bind mode ? then go to bind on the radio master pocket ? how do i setup a binding phrase on the radio ?
Yes what you said can work as well. For binding phrase on the radio, I plug it into a computer running ExpressLRS configurator and flash the radio from there.
Hi I watched your video and I like the cases that you have on the ground what kind of case is that I need that to put my FPV drones in can you put your goggles in there to ?
Thinking of getting into this hobby. Already do RC cars and trucks so gonna dive head first into this. I'm gonna go with the radio suggestion radiomaster pocket seems pretty popular from all the videos i seen. One thing i want to change is the camera and goggles. I want to go with the caddx goggles L and the walksnail camera system. Will that work with this build?
I’m at the bluejay flashing part, and for some reason when I try to read the settings it says “ Missing an ESC?” I tried with a different esc and it still can’t read all the esc
What do you think of the 1507 3800 kv, I am new at this, do I lose flight time with the high 3800 kv. I selected these t-motors, because theyverre given to me, should I spend the money for the 1604’s?
Thank you for the video. However, Volador VX3.5 Frame is 70g. It's far too heavy. There are lighter options available in this class. Lighter weight would give more battery options.
JHEMCU Noxe f411 mini stack, an older cyclone VTX, runcam thumb pro, JMT 3.5" frame I believe the frame and VTX are discontinued, and the noxe mini stack is harder to come by
@hoardersam10 Was not expecting such a fast reply... Thanks! I've flown a few jhemcu stacks and they are really good bang for the buck, definitely a solid option if they're available in stock
Looking to build my first drone. Put about 80 hours in on the sim before pulling the trigger on a Pavo pico with a walksnail unit and a set of goggles l. I assume with this being O3 compatible, fitting an HD pro kit should be fairly simple?
The prices you show in your video are all "first time user deals" that can only be used once. Do you use the "superdeal" trick featured on your channel to get additional discounts or is there another method?
The screenshots are from my main existing account. Some of the prices are superdeals (like the $33 tmotors, regularly $40) and some I hunt around. To price compare, the easiest I found is to use the aliexpress image search feature, where you upload a screenshot of the product and it shows you a list of all the sellers with the exact same product - and I find the seller who has it for the cheapest
Hi, have you ever flashed jhemcu 2.4 rx? If so what have you used for elrs version. I was able to bind it with the original one but now I am not able to bind after flashing it with 2.5.2.
The stuff from the avata 2 can be used with the DJI O3 air unit. But it isn't compatible with this analog setup in this video since you already have the avata 2 stuff I'd recommend the DJI O3 air unit
I just built a drone with the same frame and the same motors! I came across the problem that c-clips on the bottom of the motors would push into the frame and obstruct the motors from spinning freely. Did you come across the same problem? As for me I had to remove those clips; nothing came off during a maiden flight so I assume it'll be fine in the future
I don't know if its recency bias or not, but I'm a big fan of the walksnail goggles L. I personally prefer not having to fiddle around with a million things before flying, so the simplicity of the goggles L makes it really easy to take anywhere to fly. My DJI goggles have a bajillion little nubs and antennas sticking out of them so I have to baby them in order not to break them. Its similar to the radio, I never use my TX16S anymore because it just has too many nubs sticking out of it. I always use my radiomaster pocket because I can literally throw it around and it won't break
just want to you know that your videos finally motivated me to shell up and buy all the parts to get into this hobby.
Same. I think I'm finally gonna stop buying DJI drones and build my own.
Hell yeah! You'll love it bro!
@@Todd_G_FPV I caved lol everything was so much lol. I ended up getting the flying potato because it was easier to root hack.
@@Todd_G_FPV i got the V2 so i could root it and use the analog adapter for builds later.
@X862go i don't know that u need to root them for a analog module but may be worth it for better range with vistas
This is some of the highest quality *recorded* analog fpv fotage I've seen in quite a while - nice build!
Just ordered parts for this exact build with the t motors you recommended. Also just got a pinecil for Christmas. I’m so excited thanks for the recommendations!
I always insulate the capacitor wires, speedybee even includes a heat shrink for that!

Nice! I'm actually planning on putting my Moonlight kit in. Mind if I ask what it weighs?
Which KV Tmotors did you use?
Not an issue in aus because we shouldn’t be flying fpv anyways lol😂
So how is it? :D
Thank you for the inspiration. Ordered it a couple days ago when there were sales on Aliexpress and got everything including the T-Motors for $176.
