If you have a fun mini FPV video share it with us!
.
You guys have created a new version of the sport I love, Aka quad racing. Thank you for opening up a new fun element to the hobby for the people stuck indoors.
I had just ordered the camera and tiny quad to make mine tomorrow! Great video guys!
Awesome that they covered this!! Love me some Flite Test. Down side is now we will never find parts in stock haha
Thank you for posting nano and micro quad builds, especially when tied to FPV. I can't really fly 250 scale quads where I am so these are my best bet. I just rebuilt a Nano QX on a carbon fiber frame. Gonna do the same with my inductrix and that crazy CF+Al frame
I got myself a Tiny Whoop, threw the 'Special Sauce' motors in it with some custom high AoA props, and that thing rips! On a calm day it can fly pretty sweet tricks outside. Once you switch the gyro off they get crazy. Flips and rolls are totally possible in your living room with it.
Awesome work guys!
Flite Test about to go full scale? That's one massive fuselage.
Hi Guys, a lot of Greetings from Germany! I discovered your channel a few weeks ago, and i have watched until now a LOT of your videos...Got me really into RC...Thanks a lot! You're really awesome!
Just got my motors in from Benedikt and followed the video. And just tested... wow, got it right the first time and the little guy headed for the ceiling on almost no throttle. Yeah !!!! Now to install the Fat Shark camera/transmitter.... thanks guys !
Cool! Those DC motors are very good.
Awesome!!! I have an inductrix and got bored with it fairly quick. THIS is what will happen to it. Thank you for sharing. Now, time to go order some motors. :)
Awesome job guys - love your work!
Long time FT Afterhours listener here btw ;)
Thanks Benedikt!! We are appreciative of your continued support! ;)
Happy Flying!
Cool build its nice to see you guys feature MMW motors would love to see you guys do a whole episode on other stuff from that site especially the Alien Wii flight controller too
Doing my best Joe Pesce impression: "Ok. Ok. Picture a sunny calm day, ok. Get a mini guine, ok. and Cram a dozen of these nano quads into it. Ok. You see what I'm saying?"
LOL I love it!
Hi there. I'm Bob from Italy.Thank you so much for your videos..fantastic!!
GRAZIE Bob! We really appreciate all your support! Thanks so much for the kind words!
S.O.
So much has changed looking at these whoops a year from this video (mullet mod, FCs, frames, motors, LEDs, etc.).
These are "old school" style whoops now lol
awesome Benedikt from Micro Motor Warehouse has been making cool stuff for a while, its his time to shine
Nice this thing is perfect for indoors
Finally Benedikts motors get some attention! They are awesome, longer lasting and much much more punch when you need it!
Awesome episode guys :D
They are new but i like these guys!!!
Thank you so much Aaron :) That means a lot!
I just built and maiden'd mine, I love it so much.
for anyone just starting in fpv whetherit be micro drones like the tiny whoop or the ft mini arrow i recommend the eachine ev800 for googles and Wolfwhoop WT05 for the camera
Could you do a tour of your workshop/studio? the last one was done ages ago!
Very cool - I need to pick up an Inductrix one of these days...
I'm almost afraid to ask what that really big fuselage in the shop is going to be.... :-D
hi guys i am from brasil and i love watching your videos!! so fun!!
Thanks Gabriel! We are very thankful for your support and we are just glad we can bring some fun and joy to our community through the hobby!
S.O.
I got one for Christmas its awsome
I would love to see a comparison of the motors and batteries. Especially since the fast motors and 205mah batteries are sold out at the moment.
That fuselage is massive at 4:25 Hope to see video of that thing fly
geile teile! sowas brauch ich auch!
4:25, that big foam board fuselage, do you think that that may be Peter's eccentric flight fest plane for this year??
holy crap thats huge! it probably will be
:)
i think i saw that on an update video once, they were joking about someone flying in it.
It is. Without a doubt.
ha! You probably won't see it at FF this year, but the plan WAS for someone(namely peter) to fly in it... Not sure if that will ever happen or not though! ;)
Blessings,
I want to see you guys with the FlexRC Mini owl, I'm sure you'll enjoy it
It would be cool to get a full review of the micromotor warehouse motors. I"ve been considering getting a set for my nanoqx as I seem very adept at ruining the normal ones some how.
Hey Steffen congratulations great first Episode! Well done!
Thanks Deutz85Fahr! I appreciate it! ;)
Blessings,
S.O.

+Balu
Do you comment on every FT video?
On most of them, yes. :)
Good job T-Bone
Thanks buddy :)
Waiting for a 100% DIY microquad from flitetest. Good video!
I have a air hogs dr1 fpv drone and the plastic prop ducts broke so now I'm left with an unflyable rig with perfect running gear (motors, cam, etc ). Wondering if I get a tiny whoop frame if I could transfer my parts?
Guys thanks for great video. I am a beginner and want to purchase a good transmitter so that I can build FPV quads and fly. How can tell if my transmitter would work with these Mini FPV quads that you can purchase. Like the one in this video.
Looks like Peter is building something massive again.
I literally just got done building mine 15 minutes ago. So much fun.
awesome!
Congrats!! Yea, they are a blast and thanks so much for watching! Enjoy that TINY WHOOP! ;)
S.O.
Great video!! 👍🏼What is the brown beast on the floor at the end of the video? That thing is huge!! 😃👍🏼
the cf up with the purple blade guards is that for the 200 or for the you show the fpv upgrade on if it's for the original inductrix where did you get cuss the link you have only has the upgrade for the 200 ty
Late last year I was bitten by the RC flight bug. I subscribed to and am addicted to your channel. I'm all in now and finding myself at the point where I need to experience FPV. I want to convert my jjrc inductrix clone. I was wondering if you have any update info./advice, specifically which camera I should use. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Small fast cute little drones. I'm going to build one!
YES flite test is in the whoop club!!!
WHOOP!...there it is! ;)
+FliteTest ugh I was coming down here to say exactly that, but you beat me to it!
+FliteTest :D
You guys are always having so much fun it's so awesome!!! I was looking at different drones because Neil has 1 and I think I need to get one also :) I saw this one on craigslist for about 60 bucks and I started doing homework with you guys thanks for all your videos ! There's only one video on our channel so far but come check it out
what's the difference in flight time between stock,medium and fast motors?
I have an idea for a really cool challenge video! Trying to maneuver an obstacle course with FPV goggles on using a quad to look at yourself and guide your steps!
that's awesome ! i have an Inductrix it's a really cool miniquad, but i have some issue with 2 rotors so i ordered 4 news stock, if i knew that i could get some more powerfull rotors i wouldn't... I'll check if i can order some stuff from the place you mention, but it's hard to deliver from usa to France. Cheers from Paris
My last order out of the Micro-Motor-Warehouse was shipped from Germany. :)
Hi, you get so good signal from the dvr, how? Issn,t the signal bad inside? Grate video!
Great video.
I just put the Hyperion camera combo on a Hubsan X4, very easy really. It Flys great too.
Do you think 18000 kv motors will work with the stock inductrix battery and board?
How do you recon will work this with the Eachine cam? its 8g and this is 5... wonder how badly those extra 3g might affect the performance
Would you suggest the phantom 4 or the phantom 3 pro. I intend to use it for aerial photo and video as well as 3d photography.
I have rakonheli aluminium frame advance kit, and blade inductrix stock.
I want to mount camera on rakonheli frame and inductrix.
do you think it will work like your fpv whoop ???
kindly help
love it!
looks like a dangerous racer ;)
There a step by step guide on how to set up a Taranis to work with the Inductrix bnf, ie: What module is best/cheapest and how to set it up?
Love to get a couple of these for indoor practice as I have built a 250 fpv quad but totally didnt realize how hard it is to fly.
The best module is actually one you have to build yourself by taking the transmitter module of a Spektrum radio and some extra parts. Search for "JR-DSMX". There's even a forum thread on how to build one. If you are good with electronics you might be able to do it without the circuit board, but most just go for it.
nice vids I what to get in to tiny woops what controller should I get ?
What a coincidence (or not) that RMRC has their very whoop-able Cricket Cam in stock now too!
I would love to see an rtf kit of this version on flite test easy to make an indoor race. So i would buy many of them
The JJRC 1000a is my pick for a tiny whoop platform.
Seriously Ben is awesome.
Would you recommend the "Medium" motors over the stock ones since the fast ones are sold out? Would it even be worth it or just wait for the fast motors?
There definitely is a difference, but it all depends on what your hoping the quad will do. If you want top speed...wait for sure, if you just want to have fun and a little more performance, then grab a set of the mediums and see how you like it...you can always upgrade later if it ends up being not enough punch as well as you might fly with someone later who is not as experienced... and they might not do well with fast motors, so you could have them fly on the mediums. Thanks for you support and questions!
Happy FLYING! ;)
absolutely great vids but what was the giant cargo plane in the workshop. keep up the good vids and i have tried to get a speed kit on your website but there are none left so are you making more thanks.
HEy Evie!
Thanks for watching and supporting us! Which plane were you looking to speed build? I think we have most of them in stock right now! ;)
I did this a while ago, hooking up the camera to the board. But I get a lot of interference whenever I throttle up, it can be almost un flyable. I know I could use a little regulator, but it looks like you managed it without one. How have you got such clear video? o:
You can't get these motors anywhere online that I have found? any word on when they will be unstuck?
really cool video i want one
I was looking into batteries and I saw that the tiny whoop website also has a 255mAh battery would that be any better for building a tiny whoop?
Will there be another race video or extra flying with the upgraded tiny whoop? Just to see how it compares to the old Inductrix.
At this point not sure, but the upgraded version is just much faster, higher powered and better performance!
Ok. Thankyou
Hey guys, I just finished building the tiny whoop but when I plug in my camera is just sucks all the juice out of the batt and into the camera. The result is a 2 second flight time. Any suggestions?
I am waiting for a tiny brushless b.n.f. drones are my life!!
Hey, can you guys do a review of the Hobbyzone F4U corsair!
Einfach nur cool :)
vielen Dank Jan! :)
Happy Flying!
S.O.
At 4:30 there is something big in the background!! Peter is up to something!!
The video description says links to everything for the build, but there are no links for the motors. The aircraft & camera seem to be covered.
Check out the article that is linked in the description. It has links to all the parts.
Oh sorry. It only links to the Micro Motor Warehouse. You should be able to find the motors there though.
For a tiny whoop build, how do you connect it to your TX? I have a Turnigy 9x (with the FrSky Module) and I want to give this a go!
You'd need a Spektrum module for the Inductrix instead of the FrSky module.
+Balu damn. I might just get the RTF kit then
Or...flitetest.com/articles/spektrofy-your-taranis
what do you use to charge the upgraded batteries
You can get the Inductrix and battery but where are the frame and motors?
Is there a way to get a bit steeper angle when pitching/rolling? Yours seemed to be so fast at 4min35s.
It has acro mode!
Love these little drones and want to get one, where can I get one and what will I need to fly it?
Luca Morelli First you will need a stock inductrix. The flitetest store and most irl hobby shops carry it. You need an fpv camera, and themflitetest store has that too. You need a transmitter, they are pretty expensive, they are on the FT store too. Remember that theres now a version ready built that comes with a screen and transmitter, its on the FT store. If you are a beginner i would reccomend the ready built one.
nice vids thanks guys :-)
what receiver can this camera set up transmit to?
does the inductrix have acro mode as well as auto-level mode?
A minute more to cover battery and cam attachment would have been nice. Yes I know its prob in another vid somewhere but it just makes sense to put out a complete vid for us newbs.
Question is the ft flyer good outdoors or would you recommend a different plane for outdoors thanks:)
The FT Flyer is great for outdoors, but people will tell you it does not fly like a plane. It is one of the simplest builds and a nice start though. Also nearly indestructable :)
these tiny whoops are getting popular day by day ....half of my facebook posts are filled with these posts
could you use a different type of drone to make it???
What do you recommend to me I want a good beginner FPV tiny whoop which you can upgrade when using more? I Already own goggles. Not a controller. I want to spend not more than 50 euros. Thanks.
Did you guys move your production equipment along with storage and distribution out of the office? The Web Store seems like it's big enough to warrant it's own building.
Yes actually, we did! We have a plant a little further south of us where all manufacturing and shipping takes place! It has been great for growth etc! (Shout out to all the FT employees in shipping and manufacturing!!) We couldn't do it without them!
+FliteTest Congrats on the expansion! It's awesome to see how much the FT family has grown since the days of filming in Chad's basement.
Hi! Nice video. Have you ever had a lipo fire + a rc plane in a tree? I had it today, it was horrific. I paniked like hell..
Where to get the motors from? They are out of stock everywhere...
that small camera is better than what some people have on their phone
Um, no.
is the carbon frame with alu rings lighter as the stock frame or is it just for looks. Can you post an AUW from both quads.
There is a 1gram difference between the stock frame and the upgrade aluminum frame actually. Aluminum frame is the heavier one in fact.
Hi, where do you get the carbon frames from?
The footage of the screen on the FPV monitor looks better than the actual captured footage LOL!
That's the Hyperion camera! It's amazing. The dvr footage was from my nanoqx camera. When we finished this episode I noticed the quality difference and had to get one of the Hyperion cams
Difference in Camera actually! T-bone was using a different camera then our mini hyperion 600tvl 5.8VTX camera. ha The quality is GREAT! we use it on a lot of our FPV experiences cause it is so crisp etc.
Blessings,
What about the performance impacts?
What is the weight difference with the 205mah batteries and the carbon/aluminum frame?
How do each of these upgrades impact the performance/flight times?
Normally love the videos but this one left me wanting much more! :)
With the 205 batteries, new frame and camera you're getting 3.5-4 minutes of flight. The punch with the motors is amazing. You can run on stock motors with the camera however it is a bit sluggish. The frame adds less than one gram over the stock frame. It isn't needed however I really liked the look of it and I tended to bend my frame up a bit when storing it in my bag :)
I'll weigh everything out between a stock inductrix and the fully upgraded and update you later ;)
Hey Danamoose1234!
The weight is about 1oz of difference. The regular one ways 20 oz's and the upgraded carbon/aluminum one is about 21oz's. As far as the flight times...upgraded motors and larger battery your looking at 4.1/2 minutes or so. With the same batteries and a STOCK inductrix your looking at about 6ish minutes of flight time!
Because of the nature of the video was more a build, that is probably why you did not get all that info IN the actual episode... there are links in the Article page that talks a bit more about where to get the upgraded frame etc if needed!
Thanks for all your support and happy flying!! - S.O.
Thanks for the responses! I cant wait for the motors to come back in stock so I can upgrade mine!
Oh, this time I have a question... :)
What's the weight difference between the standard Inductrix and the one with upgraded parts (but without cam)?
I'll weigh mine and get Stefan the info in the morning so he can get the weight of a standard one.
HEY balu!
We found out yesterday that there is a whopping 1g difference between the two frames haha
The carbon/aluminum frame weighs 15g and the the regular frame weighs 14g. With the camera they weigh 21g and 20g respectively!
Blessings my friend!
S.O.
Thanks for measuring that. 1oz doesn't sound much, 30 g on the other hand... ;-)
+Balu lol! Every time Stefan said 'ounce' replace it with 'gram' :D 1gr difference
Now that's nothing. :)
I would love to build a tiny whoop for practicing my FPV fly. I was going to get the Blade Inductrix but my controller isn't Spektrum. Is there any good alternative (in the same price range) that I would be able to bind with my Flysky F6-i6.
the only option right now is tiny qx80/qx90 with flysky receiver or replacing the fc on stock micro
