IT’S FINALLY HERE. UAVFUTURES 2019 RACE BUILD. less budget MORE PERFORMANCE. Hope you guys enjoy. THIS THING IS SERIOUSLY AMAZING TO FLY. All parts linked in description as well as GIVEAWAY details so some lucky people can win them : )
you aslo should use nylon screw pole to secure your esc . ya it might break but this is a drone lol . if it break there will be more then esc broken before
again , if your wire arent touching each other or the chassis that you cerakoted you shouldnt need the capacitor . i had the same issue on my big rig . and the tiny box they put on the startor is useless . airgap the wire and make sure they dont touch the chassis anywhere and your issue is solved. ( assuming you are using nylon screw or other non metallic screw )
I’m a man from Norway at the same age as( I think?) Grumpy Greg. Must say that I have seen a lot of UAV’s video’s. As always this video is just great!!! BUT, my money is a little bit short to have afford to buy these parts, therefor it’s great to have the chance to maybe win it…Greetings from Norway?…
How long does a drone like this usually fly for?
I got involved with FPV racing as a part of my final year project at school. We used the same camera in our build at school however we never really got to see its performance as we were always flying indoors in the winter and there was too much interference in the big metal field house were we did test flights. We chose not to upgrade the motors on our build as they ate up too much of our budget and we couldn’t justify that their benefits were good enough for the build as a whole, however the motors on the ultralight build look sick. I’ve started with a miniwhoop to get used to FPV first and I fly in parks people come up to me and ask wtf I’m doing and I show them they think it’s sick too. Racing in 2019 will probably better than ever with all the new exposure FPV is getting more and more people will come up with better ideas. I look forward to building my own 5″ quad soon.
Erm Stew?
I don’t think your link for ultra light rocket build’s frame works. Otherwise, the video is quite awesome and clearer than other people’s build videos!
Following the trend, looks like 3″ is going to be the next big thing. Any plans on doing a 3″ build? Keep up the awesome work as usual. Can’t wait to own my own quad and get involved with the community.
Love this hobby, would love to build a quad to have a hobby me and my daughter can do together. Any dads and daughters out there in the hobby?
YESSS! I’ve been researching and slowly buying parts for the past two weeks. Super excited to get mines up and running within the week and a half! lol. Awesome vid!
Can I order a kit from you?
I never win giveaways but might as well try!!!
Nicre bro, helpful video . I am planning quad with help of your $99 v2 video . This video inspire me to make new race quadcopter just like this one ……
I think that fpv drones now are really getting good and fast the only thing I would like to see in the future are 6S battery’s that don’t discharge in a few minutes
What is the market value of the two drones?
I really hope that I win one of them
Your videos are fantastic
I would be really happy with one of those drone because I can’t afford them
Hey Stew, great video! I just recently found your channel from your very successful 99S 2017 video and have moved on to a lot of the others. I just moved to Hungary from Canada and am getting my new friends started in the hobby. We will be building a few quads based on these videos. I love the fun enthusiast energy you bring to your videos. The vampire arms are absolutely gorgeous and the color on and precision of the motors are stunning. Thanks for the opportunity to win one of these beauties
Wow that is fast!!, I am building a quad based on your $99 v2, did some changes on the order based on some more research. Thanks for sharing all this knowledge
Hey, awesome tutorial! Those quads are wicked fast and beautiful. Thanks for the quality content and the giveaway opportunity The vampire arms are stunning and I love the color and precision of the motors and build.I would love to
He recorded this in the night to stay up late for you guys
As mutch, i want to win one of the quads they are terrifying fast. I just fly like a few months now a small indoor drone. I ordered my self a jumpert12 for a train on a simulator i like freestyle and racing is there a quat what you suggest under 250g what i can use to start. I fly the most time fpv because the line of sight flying is not so easy
how do you start flying a drone? i have tried to fly them before but im not sure i understand the controls and i have heard about brushless mortars what are they what makes them better then the brushed ones?
Woww
Hi stew ?? out of curiosity on the vampire arms are the crab ends where the motors are going to grab on sticks easier & would it be possible to turn them outwards instead of going in ? Thanks from Phil ?? keep up with the great videos and builds
Holy cow
What beasts have you created
Love those zing motors and their look
A fpv fan from Germany
once again great builds Stu.
I found your channel in few days ago and im now addicted to FPV fly.
I plan to buy some parts and build my own drone. Thanks for your tipps and builds. Greetings from Hungary.
Granger has tics? never noticed that before.
Hi Stewart, I really need some help with my boscam gs922 goggles, I had it connecting to the quad some time ago, now unfortunately it won’t connect to any transmitter, what could really be the issue? What are the common problems when these goggles won’t get video
I just got a f100 ghost basically bugs 3 and been dying to get in to racing and fpv been slowly try to get everything necessary for a bid but budget wont allow it.
You make soldering look so easy that’s the only thing I’m worried about starting a build of my own other than programming everything
Thers literally was hardly nothing at my local hobby shop and I dont have the ability to order online it really sucks they r all focused on RC trucks and cars and planes
When are you going to announce the winners?
Love that ultralight build, love those shiny motors!!! Probably unbreakable
6s is just sick!
All of yalls videos are great. I’ve always been interested in this and I’m hoping to grab one in the next few weeks!
I never raced, but everytime I watch your videos, I want to try ! 😀 I don’t have any racer, and would be glad to win one 😀 !
The give away is it still available ?…. sorry I’m becoming lil greedy but I have a flysky i6s and need a drone but I won’t work cause I’m a student but want be in this hobby….or I say want to be like you.?
Awesome!
Your video builds are really inspiring, getting ready to build my own, keep up the good work, thank you!
I would really like to win because I love drones and I will surely know the fpv and I would dream of this drone
I had never actually heard about FPV racing before, until I saw two guys in my local park racing around earlier today and I went up to them and started asking some questions about their quads, how to get started etc, and they pointed me to this YouTube channel. And here I am. I just want to thank you for the work you’re doing over here, I’ve learned so much in the past hours I’ve spent on your channel. I’ve gone from a complete noob to actually understand the basis and specs of the different components were I feel comfortable choosing parts to build my own first quad. Can’t wait to save some money up and dive into this. Cheers from Sweden ??
I like the lightweight builds, the fact their 6s, good parts all around. I like that Uav gets people into fpv.
A few things.
1. Love the content Stew. Thanks for all that you do.
2. Get a dynamite GPS speed meter. Yes it adds a little weight, but its way more accurate and safer than a radar gun.
3. Challenge. Build a 6s drag quad and see if you can top 159 mph! lol. check my vids.
Thanks for getting Granger in on the vid, it’s nice to see someone else’s opinion on building!
For giveaway: I like how interchangeable these things are to swap out different components for your flight style. I could take some of these components and add them to the $99 build to get something in between. I think racing will become more popular as people accept it as a competitive sport and more races are organized. Maybe we will have 6s races some day which would be crazy fun to watch!
Battery for 2208 and 60A ESC? And flight time please! Thank you. You are awesome.
never tried quad racing before but always wanted to try it. looks like a super fun ting to do. would love to try it but the price is a bit of problem. nice videos dude. keep up the good work.
You are the best you were the first video I had ever watched and I love your comedic and informative videos.
Its really cool of you to make sure it’s cheap enough for almost every one to get into the hobby
Next will be down-facing motors and props like the emax tinyhawk!! Woohoi!
hey joined your drone building ,you make it look so easy 🙂
Sir, This channel has been one of the 1st channels I have seen after watching Awe-inspiring Freestyling by Le Drib & Mr Steele. I want to participate in fpv racing.
What I like about these builds are they are so versatile. You can mix and match components to get the perfect drone for you. If a person, thinking about joining the hobby, looks at what you guys have made, it gives them the confidence that that too could do it. I know this is true because I also want to join the hobby but since am young (sigh) can’t build it just yet because…Parents! Racing in 2019 will be interesting as there are soo many opportunities for people to get into drone racing because of their versatility. Now, you can mix and match your parts and build them yourself. Technology truly has come a long way.
My friend showed me this channel because he really wanted to get into fpv with him. I’m really hoping I would get one so I can start flying with him. I’ve only flown an fpv 5 times so I would prolly change the motors to lower spec one so I’d be able to control it somewhat.
I have wanted to build a drone, so a few days ago I started my research about what to buy and I saw all your previous build videos, but I heard from many people that a first drone should be bought and not made as buying is easier and saves time and I can avoid errors which might occur while. Building. The components in your build are just amazing, I mean 6s that’s one heck of a punch in a drone.
Really like the fact that these builds, despite not costing $99 are actually still quite affordable compared to pro drones in the old days, and still look super cool especially the Xing motors and frame design. I think cheaper drones are so necessary to lower the barriers to entry to racing, hopefully one day a full 5 inch race drone costs <$99!
Your video on the meatyboy got me hooked on this hobby. Now seeing a few months later a complete custom build that more than compares to the meatyboy blows my mind. Excellent work gentlemen.
what baterys do you use for this quad
Love to head about the different parameters to think about. Like weight and shape and how it affects the flying. I only have a tiny whoop so far but am interested in racing and getting a 5 inch quad
I want to know about throttle expo and curve . i know they exist . i want to know how people are getting as much resolution and really finding the middle so to speak . and what are some suggested settings for the amount of expo in betaflight . i downloaded the drl sim when it was free and tried one of the races and all other racers were very locked in and i could not keep up .. It was on the practice track . yes i was in acro . and i had quite a bit of flight experience at the time . it seems to be the only thing i cant get right . . what are the throttle curve and expo secrets !?!.
How quick was the light weight build? Which one did granger lap faster?
how Much dose it costs
I followed your advice back in January to buy the Diatone GT349R. This was by far the most amazing drone I’ve ever flown. Today, you come with something more awesome, and I think these drones will give me the opportunity to fly even faster and smoother.
I’d love to see how these fly with a go pro though. This is an amazing time to live at!
Hey, just watched your $99 dollar build and i am really keen to get into drone racing now. Always thought these were a lot more expensive. Thanks for the guidance!
I really like these builds due to all the innovation we have seen in the world of drones. These stack designs for all the electrical components now-a-days are simply incredible!!
I want to win because I have flown video drones for years and I would love to get into fpv and I think that the best drone to start with is one of your excellently built drones. Hope I win!
I love racing nerdypixelstudios i like you like these drones
I’d like to win this comp because racing in 2019 has moved so far forward compared to literally just a year ago. I’ve been hoping to get my own drone but haven’t been able to afford one. Also I want to make some edits to a drone on the machine shops offered at my university to see how personalized and potentially marketable I can make a drone
I like that ESC stack you have at the middle. I have been attaching my ESC’s on the arms. This stack idea seems like a better way to go.
I liked how the drone is fast and i also liked how light it is compared to how much it can do. Drone, nowadays became more compact unlike before which needs a lot more parts in order to build it. This drone is amazing on what it can do compared to the price.
Last drone i had was the eachine Wizzard and raced a few times.
Bro I need the drone.I discussed 12 times in comments section and still you did not see it.Are you faking it?Reply to me bro.
I am building my first FPV quad thanks to Stu from UAVFutures.
He has been so helpful in knowing FPV hobby.
Being an Australian it is making us proud to have someone like you from down-under.
I like the high end components you are using in your build, it’s going to take a long time for me to get such components. For now I am using the cheapest but reliable components for my build as that’s my dad can afford.
I also made a video for you on my channel
Hope you enjoy it.
For Christmas, I got a “ready to fly” drone, which actually turned out to be non-functional. I am looking for another way to get into fpv drone racing but I don’t have the money. I hope I get picked, but if I don’t, congratulations to the winner.
Hey stew, thanks for your awesome video’s, very clean , lots of details and overall brilliant content. I build your 99$ drone and it was an absolute amazing build. Hope I start the V2 build soon.
Good luck and no crashes I wish all the way from Switzerland .
Keep the vids coming brother!
i like the most about this build that it is insanly easy and cheap and get lots of people flying so keep this up i like your vids
Just built a marmotte, not the same thing as this is it lol
i have read some of the comments and saw a lot of people want the 99 dollar build is there any chance that you could do that?
I think that the builds are very nice looking, I dunno much about how it would feel as I haven’t used either of them or the components in them. But the fact that you can build such a good quad for 200 ish dollars is really speaking where the hobby is going.
First, love the videos! As far as the quads themselves, I love stretched X frames, the load is in the middle and helps to balance out the quad and tuning for me is easier with this frame style vs the normal ones. This is also based off of the gyro effect of the props. The idea of 6s isn’t my idea as speed isn’t what normally wins but being calm and collected and finding the right line to run. Most current tracks do not have straight aways and there is always a turn or two within very close together.
Those look so fun amd would get the kids outside for sure and with a smile on everyone’s face
Omg that’s fast
Wow 115
Wow now that’s flying
I am new to this hobby,haven’t build a drone yet but planning on building one,your videos are helping a lot.keep up the good work.
What I dig and like about those builds is that it shows the progress of the entire FPV quadcopter industry. Not only to we get to see the cost of these powerful devices go down but companies have been able to fine tune them and also dedicate enough time to look good as well! Making them flashy and cool while also being sleek and minimalistic makes them look very attractive to me. And that ties in with racing as well. I think one great thing coming to racing is real time telemetry of each quad while racing. Kinda like they do in car races, and it could show speed and battery level and motor stats 🙂
Very entertaining videos BTW!
i am here since your $99 build but these ultralights are awesome, hope to build it soon
Yo that’s insane ? I wish I could win the giveaway!
Its come so far one day I’ll build one brother hobby motors are so sweet!!!!
SUPER SUPER cool, I have been saving for a fpv drone for a while now. I have a mini drone that costed 15 euros, and I spend days flying around (I even convinced my brother to buy one, so we could race, and do tricks), LOVE your channel, keep up with the great videos!!
How insane is this acceleration?! 40:05
I hope some poor guy/girl gets the giveaway
What is the VR headset you use called???
I built a FPV racer in 2015, sadly I couldn’t really get any friends to get one for themselves, so it wasnt too long before I sold everything. I’ve been itching to try again, but this time probably keep the FPV- and radio equipment a little more affordable.
I really like how far, it seems, FPV and drones have come since then, 2015 is not really that long ago, but seems like alot has happened. There are better goggles for alot cheaper, alot of different radio styles to chose from now and the quads seem to be alot simpler and maybe alot more durable now, popping an ESC was pretty common and burnt out one of my KISS ESCs the first time out in 2015.
Anyways, the motors look so cool, the paintsplatter looks sick, and so does the rainbow effect on the light quad. And the fact that they take 6S batteries is insane to me.
Racing in 2019 getting big, we just got the first little drone racing clubs in my Region of Germany so I hope I get picked for the giveaway to rock and hopefully win some races with this little boy. Very nice Style with these Pink / Rainbow Motor casings. The Frame looks Beautiful but do u know how rigid it is? seems a little thin. Building was like a charme u are very fast with it. So overall very Nice looking beautiful quads with the a lot better components then I use currently. Greetings from Germany.
if you do a 99$ build for 2019 i’m definitely going to build it, also instead of calling it a “99$” dollar build try if you could to say exactly how much it is because i found that after you purchase a headset and a controller the price goes way up. Thanks again for the awesome videos!
I love how fast and durable it is, this is by far one of the best I’ve ever seen
Im hoping to get one of these so I can start my own career in drone flying
I get the more performance part and less budget. Without me totaling everything up whats the cost on this build Stew? Comon mate. Spell that one out for us.
Howzit guys. What Capacitor did you use?
these look like they could take someones head off if it hits them! What do you do for safety?
Thank you for all of your hard work! I’m looking to build my first build. I think I will contact you soon for parts purchase! God bless you and yours!
loved both of the quads and love all your videos and those motors look beautiful!! i think racing in 2019 is has become really cheap and accesible to everyone
Nice video as always . I hope can build one . Thanks for the build guide.
A 2019 budget built would be awesome. Did your 2018 one, but think with my current skillset I might cause same harm if I attempt this built!
This guy has to be the most helpful fpv person when it comes to builds, started off w your 99 dollar build and cant wait to order the parts! after i may look into buildign one of these rigs they Rip! ive been wanting to get into racing it seems so fun just need so buddys who fly!
amazing quads this video has completely changed my view on race quad and their potential its insane how you could throw these components together and this be your out come these things rip! cant wait to see the future of drone racing evolve into something 10x more insane as pilots get better and better everyday the drone world is truly amazing!
that cornering and throttle management the guys are some crazy good pilots i would have hit the ground or would have been stuck in a tree with how power full these drones are, i hope to build one some day definently a dream build of mine!
You guys walked me through my first build!! Thanks you all! keep it UP !
Less face and more focus on what you’re doing (more zoom!!). Also, the camera perspective of across the table, is as helpful as listening to this as a podcast. Great for a review, not for a “how to build” video. /end rant. Otherwise keep up the good work reppin Aus in the world of drones.
I dont know much about what components to talk about as I am just getting into this, I have flown camera drones for so long and now I am in my 3rd week of flying FPV, I count on this channel for ALL of my learning and choosing drones for FPV! Plus grumpy trev is hilarious on his channel.
I have had those motors for about 6 months now … I am able to get 121mph out of 4S packs … They are great motors
A feature I like and would recommend is the “low power disarm” in the VTX menu in Betaflight.
The VTX gets hot when powered on and if you are making some adjustments or tweaking your drone on the bench it’s better to use lowest output power on the VTX and higher when flying.
That is exactly what ” low power disarm” does.
A little disappointed not to see this being mentioned in the second video where Stew setup smart audio.
Anyway good videos from UAV like always. Entertaining.
What battery did you recommend cells and mAh?
Not enough camera angle on that baby.
i like their speed, but the rules about drones in Hungary make it really difficult to fly 🙁
Awesome. What about battery?
Too bad I bought the alternative frame of your smaller build and guess what,it doesn’t have holes for a 20×20 stack. Wonderful,now I have to send things back cause they don’t fit.
I love the colors and im wanting to get into flying fpv/ racing. This would be great to win
What a great video. Like it states one shell is lite build and one is power. Nice that titan esc has soft mounts. You can choose the zings on the lite build and have a awesome rocket. Cant wait to build mine. With the popularity of drone racing and the hobby in general in 2019 prices for components are cheap with great quality. Thanks for the awesome step by step video UAVfutures
When does enter time end?
So. The Ultralight. In my opinion, this is a well optimised quad which you can up or downgrade to fit your needs. I personally agree with the choices You made with the components, all in all You picked solid and reliable hardware that is available to nearly everyone.
In 2019 I hope that racing will get more attention from non-fpv people, to let them see our hobby. Seeing it and trying it are obviously different things but at almost every event there are pilots willing to let strangers look into their googles and feel what its like to fly a quad. I also hope tech will improve and prices go down to make it even more accesible but the main goal for 2019 for me is just to spread this awesome hobby everywhere.
I come from Switzerland and here FPV is really scary, unapproved and new to most but those who have tried it through me or other pilots are nearly all active now.
What battery are you using??
I can’t find the battery in the description, and I don’t know how to install it.
These are freaking amazing man those are freaking fast sweet sweet drones looking forward to my 1st build. Also really great channel I have learnt so much from this channel. New sub here! Now gimme a drone lol just kidding but would be amazing to win
Do you have a video for a build that is good for adding a go pro or second camera to record video?
Love how channels like you guys are making the hobby so accessible for new comers, especially the $99 drones. I’ve been looking to get into the sport for a while and all the videos really help.
All of your build videos are so helpful when it comes to explaining parts and why you’re using them. I’ve yet to build my own copter yet but alot of the knowledge you’ve provided will help me pick what I wanna do. Thanks 🙂
I love how fpv has come so far since it first was founded, with technology growing fast. Amazing new things are coming out daily, motors especially. Therefore the most favourite part about these builds are the motors, elegant and fast.
These builds are so cool! They are so polished and compact and to get this kind of speed from such a small quad is insane! Racing in 2019 has really taken a turn for the better and there are so many new improvements and technology!
I received an email I was mentioned in the discord and my heart started to soar…. I have no idea why I got that email. lol. I hope a winner is announced soon so I stop getting my hopes up :/
I’m looking into entering the hobby. I don’t necessarily need to enter at the lowest $$$ budget end; but, as a beginner, should I?
so how are you getting awesome flight footage? i dont see no go pro or mention of a split??
how does it costs plz ?
Great Video! I am just now getting into FPV flying. I’ve been flying my Phantom 3 Standard for a bit over 2 years along with some micro quad without cameras. But after watching Stu’s videos I decided to take the plunge. I just started out with a $30 Box goggle and a $16 camera on my eachine e010 (or some other kind of brand) and love it. I like how this build is a great start for racing but I will probably go with something a bit less powerful. Any suggestions on something to get me into Acro flying? I’m using a Beta65s lite FC they I built and want something just a bit stronger.
I have just been looking to get into the hobby but i don’t know if i a able to in the space i have.
Can I mount gopro on it ???
Im more of a fixed wing guy that got stuck comfortable with spektrum, now getting into fpv. I have the inductrix bl (made for spektrum) and want an upgrade soon. Sorry for the noobish question but is the receiver built into the iflight stack then? How would i build something like this for spektrum?
hey so im trying to start a drone racing club here in Jamaica. can i get some help into doing this ?
I Do believe that you have a great potential to go over 1Milion subscribers, the only issue for that is the (time) of each episode. Each episode should not go more than 5 Minutes.
I am sure from what I see that you are fascinated with your hubby, and you love to contact others about it. But again, just make it shorter, 5 minutes is great
Wtf lol i thought the guy in the right was a beezy. Lol ? wtf
No lie he looks like a straight female lol
But anyway as I was saying that is a badass drone yo keep up the good work yolo
can you tell me approx weight of these two builds please?
Great Video guys! thanks so much, I think I would rather go with Grangers as I really like the motors and ESC.. You always have made great videos. I did the 99.00 build, still fly it, but put some T-Motors on it for some added thrust, that was my very first, I am now on my 8th build, thanks again guys, I will be building this, but I will use a slightly different FC… please keep them coming! hope others are partions too!
Could you do a best freestyle complete build with GoPro mount 🙂 or would this work and just mount a GoPro on it lol
Mate you apologise a lot..! Love your work, Cheers
Its vids like these that have piqued my interest in the hobby… Watching the reviews and builds have really made me want to get a drone and get flying! Thanx and keep up the great work!! ??
When controler I must buy on this drone on video?
my parents will not let me get a drone so if i got one it would be the best thing in the world
I have to ask, which build went 115mph? Graingers or Stu’s?
I liked the weight savings but it would be better if you could do another 99 dollar build
Dang, i remember when the racing standard was 4s. The game has certently changed
How far would you say the drone can go before cutting off?
what capacitor did you use
I have got few nooby questions!
* can you suggest any good affordable transmitters and goggles? Are they compatible with all the rc drones?
* how long does the battery lasts? How do i charge it?
* how do we connect the transmitter to the drone?
*how far does it travel? What if i lost the connection?
Thanks !!!!
Awesome builds guys inspired me to try something different…
thats what the community all about
For the camera pal or ntsc?
awesome! great builds guys! would love to try a 6s, definitely my next build 🙂
Been hearing about this FPV drone thing for a bit now. This is the first video I’ve sought out about it and I think you’ve convinced me to give it a go. Looks like a really fun hobby. Thanks for the in depth breakdown on the builds. Gonna try to replicate your build exactly and see how it goes.
jesus man let him talk, you have him here to talk about HIS experience and expertise so let him fucking do it would ya?
Guys love your vids. Starting to buy the kit to make EXTREME SPEED BUILD (grangers build). Only confused about the camera. Which mode do you normally buy? PAL or NTSC? When your racing is it normally NTSC for the higher refresh rate?
Thank you for the assist on builds, total newb here and really appreciate it
Love these kind of build videos
As someone who’s new to the hobby never got to build a drone from scratch but man this encourages me to do so
Great video
A high five all the way from Mexico !
After watching this build I’m gonna buy the light build exactly and build it .. I’m hooked thanks man…
Have been flying some drones lately but really need a Fpv racer soon. Like these video’, keep it up.
what kv did you use for the motor on the ultralight?
is this work on any controller?
Is there a certain diameter of solder that you prefer, possibly making it easier to work with and neater in the end?
are these drones only used for racing or can you use them on a regular basis as if you were using DJI drone?
Wow man these are so fast. I have never owned a drone but tour video makes me think even someone like me who knows next to nothing could give this a go. Great video keep em coming.
I been learning a lot from your videos I wanna build one of these but I’m not sure how to get started.Its so overwhelming of choosing everything I need to buy.I am a beginner so this is all new to me and I just wanna build something easy to start on and I want a clear camera and fpv goggles.Any suggestions for a beginner?
So i think both of these drones are just sick (especially the microswift is just awesome in my opinion) and i think its awesome that you show how easy it is to build a drone on your own! I currently have a 4s rtf drone but the more i watch your videos i can feel that my next drone is a 6s build on my own, because i think 6s is just the thing to go with when u wankt to race in 2019 imo!
Greetings from germany and thanks for the content 🙂
Its always funny to see items being sold out when you made a video about them
Sir , what type of module you use with akk vtx?
I been trying to save up to get into fpv drone raceing but being a single dad it’s hard to save up lol but I love the eMac ecos!!! There gorgeous motors! I hope I win lol would be a dream to race! Love the channel!!!!
UAV where are the Betaflight PIDS settings and rates for this builds
so about a grand to get the whole setup goggles and radio
Love your vids, best UAV channel on the internet. Is it better to build a drone like these though or buy something like the Emax Hawk? Just wondered what would be the better drone to fly at the end of the day as they are in the same price bracket (ish)
The FLYWOO Vampire Frame has a 22mm wide space for the camera. But all Mico sized Cameras are only 19mm wide.
Isn’t there an adapter or something?
amazing builds, always love the build videos because it looks so fun to build a drone and have some fun figuring out how to put them together instead of just buying them finished also love how you went for a really performance packed build for a bit more money, even though if i were to get great goggles it would cost a lot. By the way amazing how they can go 185 km/h, and the motors are beautiful, just amazing, the cameras also just amazing. I am just beginning with fpv racing so i don’t know too much about it but I think that racing in 2019 will be a lot more fun and a lot more popular and faster for cheaper. Hope I win 😉
I’m new to fpv racing, (I haven’t even got a fpv drone) but I really like that they’re made out of carbon and that the rotors are so fast even with the GoPro. I think 2019 will be a great year for drone racing, but again I’m new so I don’t really know stuff.
Nice Nice ! I like what you both did! Very nice! I would be very happy to get one of this Racer for 2019. Thanks keep on Rocking. See you on Patreon
@O hai
will you share the PIDS and settings for Betaflight on this build ?
@Rolo Saenz no
You cant think up there……. if you think… you’re dead.
Your drones are awesome and the speed is fast like a Ferrari so in 2019 drone racing o want to build a drone like u and get 1st position easily…
These builds are the reason I started this hobby and now I might have to upgrade my 2017 build, the frames are so much better now. keep up the good work!
I have to wait 120 days if i order anyting to south afrika i hate it but the hobby shops are so expensive
I use a gas soldering iron it works great and no wire so i love mine
That stack is no where near 60 amps, I had it and it’s more like 30 amps
I thought he was his girlfriend for a minute???
what do 4s 6s and 5s mean?
this drone goes from 1 to 190 mph in literally blink of an eye
You are awsome
My whole family will suscribe you
Will you give me the drown
When you releas the vedio in that day it was my birth day
What battery do you use ?
What kind of capacitors are typically run on a setup like this?
Great video, what battery did you use?
Well stew those are the most beautiful quads I’ve ever seen.
Is it also for freestyle?
Can you give us the battery to power this?
Gnb, tattu r line. Gnb is a little bit better.
The video is very informative. A thought that crossed my mind is if you build one drone from start to finish and then built the other drone. It would make building along with the video easier. You’ve built a great Channel that I have learned a lot from so thank you.
I would like to know 2.
Stew u r the man bro…your a great teacher…i bought my first drone from watchin your videos…i love it…now im lookin to buy a racing drone…i been thinkin about that Diatone GT R349…that thang flys awesome…what batteries should i buy for it ?…im lookin for long flight time ???
I just ordered my iFlight stack V2 with the 500mw and I have the brother hobby motors.. also adding the runcam split mini V2 … I’m just debating whether or not to put this on a 3″ or a 5″ 🙂
Great video! I started to build that drone but it seems like the camera does not fit. too small ?
Hello! This is my giveaway submission!
To start things off, I know little about quads (relatively), but hope that my opinion on these matters is similar to those with more experience!
I do believe that the fact that each part in these two quads is interchangeable is amazing, as from the little experience I have, I’ve noticed this isn’t too easy of a feat, when people with different preferences are building separate quads. Of course, I think the fact that these builds are racing-focused is quite great; I was looking to build a racing-focused quad, and of course Stuart once again comes to the rescue; just as he did when i first wanted to build a quad. Honestly, just the fact that UAVfutures and someone he trusts picked these parts is enough of a reason for me to buy them.
I really do hope that footage of racing (such as the footage in the video) inspires newcomers such as myself to become more skilled in drone racing. Better technology and the increase of pilots has made the gap in speed between the best and worst pilots quite large, and this may discourage beginners who want to race to even try. I believe racing is at least a major goal pilots have when they are building their first fpv drones, and so I truly hope that the proof of potential (flight clips) that come with these build videos inspire others to become our fellow hobbyists.
Can you send a Link from the Lipo.
Thank you
Sounds like it will fly real fast to me with those components. I would put it on the 3inch though as then it will be even more portable and being smaller it will survive crashes much better. I feel like the bigger frames can bend arms. (not the best flier myself haha)
Hi mate, I’ve been watching you for the last couple of years. I think since the first 99 buck drone build quide. That video was probably one of the first videos I watched which made me give the hobby a try which resulted in so much fun. Love the hobby and if it wasn’t for people and channel like yours well I don’t know I guess many would have different hobbies lol. Props to you and your hard work. This current crazy fast builds are amazing what I love about it are you used higher quality parts with no compromises. I prefer really the liter smaller builds as more portable and crash proof. (that’s not an indication of my skills) hahaha.. Maybe. I think for 2019 the future of drone racing is going to be about faster flying with bigger power. That’s kinda scary thought actually because they are getting really fast. Thanks for making this video. Cheers
What battery would you recommend for the builds?
Left4Cake I would recommend a 4s 1500 mah if your just starting out
giveaway already ended
I dont now a good 6s battery for this. Any ideas on which 6s would be the best for this build?
Hi UAV futures,
please suggest me a complete fpv drone build(also mention goggles,transmitters,receivers) in a budget range…i will be rarely using this drone to see the aerial view and to record it… so clarity in recorded vids and better viewing experience through goggles is just needed…i wont be indulging in any race…so normal speed is enough…i want to assemble the drone myself…so please suggest me a( do it urself kind of) fpv drone along with better goggles,transmitters and receivers…???…thanks by advance
Watch you on YouTube you got me building drones
why couldn’t they put everything that the drone needs in one box and make it easier for everyone.
HELP!!!! Hi stew everything went together beautifully but receiver tab is going nuts in betaflight drone preview spinning channel 12 is responding for no reason throttle and elev mixed I’m using taranis x7 and frsky xm+ please HELP!!!!!!!!!
I am just getting into FPV having a video showing the 2 builds was very helpful. The race build is a monster 115 miles per hour thats quick.
You have some serious reflexes Granger.
Thanks for the videos they are super helpful and i will be watching and waiting for your next one.
I wish there were pre made drones like this that you could just buy with compatible goggles and controllers so that you can just pay and fly. I really want to get into FPV but it looks so fucking confusing. I’m worried I’ll spend a load of money and it jut won’t work or the parts will be incompatible. Someone please send help…
Hi. Thanks for the vid. The link to the frame in your build seems to be broken. Can you please update? Thanks.
How did you mount the gopro ?
I am not into racing. However I would like to build my own. The purpose is to go and see what is happening on my land (135 acres). Can you make a video for this purpose or propose material? Thank you, good video by the way.
We need Stews start up pack 😉
So we have all the tools in one click
Love the work btw
UAV
Hello thx for inspiring me to build a Fpv drone for my birthday
Wow they dont use battery
Your build vids are actually what got me into this hobby and I really got excited when I first learned about your channel because your pretty much the only youtuber that really helps out there viewers. I really love fpv flying all though I have not done that much but I got instantly hooked when I started
Thanks, love your channel
How do u enter the giveaway? I press the link in the description and it just takes me to YouTubes website and there’s not info on polls
bruh! thats dope. So dope!
If you jumped up to the ALFA 6″ or 7″ frame would you need to make any changes, and how would you add a GPS and tracking telemetry.
how about the flight time?
So you think this drone would be also good for beginners?
Can granger build hold a gopro 7? Also does his build go for 5 min flight time or?
Those zing mirrors are on point for sure..I have a set on my proton SX and they scream .
Yes it is very helpful
Do you guys think that this is to much power for a beginner?
what i love about these builds is the power! because what’s the point in anything if it doesn’t have too much power! i think FPV Drone racing should be promoted alot more globally as a hobby for anyone who is willing to dive in. i love them xing motors soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo smoooootheeeee!
im sure you could 3d print a gopro hero 7 mount for it but i wouldn’t recommend it, you would be altering the CG (Center of Gravity) a lot and that will seriously affect handling. as for flight time, not a hope of getting 5 mins when your racing like that. you will get longer flight times if you freestyle or cruise around but these quads are not for any of that. they are die-hard racing machines!
@PRyan FPV yea I think I’ll be going for a long range build, I just purchased Fatshark Hdo with the immersionRC module, FrSky Qx7 and TBS crossfire Transmitter, some props and something else. Jeez it gets expensive I’m already well over 1k in my countries currency lol I guess I’ll need another 500+ or so for drone parts, tryna build something close to Johnny fpv or this other guy sozo their cinematic stuff is epic
Dean Barrow it’s definitely worth all the money that we have to invest into this hobby!
@PRyan FPV this was a very exciting purchase for me personally so pumped to share my footage with the community once I’m up in the air and have a good amount of flight time under my belt haha
The only thing I’m confused on is what controller / radio you use for this drone. Can u tell me
The only thing I’m confused on is what controller / radio you use for this drone. Can u tell me what u prefer
2019 99$ build
Awesome thank you
Great vid, my only question is what Controller receiver and googles do you recommend for a newbie?
Can I buy a drone from you . I give you money
I am a complete beginner. Can someone tell me what the VTX is and if it has a receiver inside of it. and if so what kind?
is your pricing in australian dollars
Half the links are dead any ideas?
What battery do you recommend with this build?
I mean for f@$k sake do you like hearing yourself talk that much
What are some good affordable radios that will work for grangers build?
Literally look in the description….
@RaygrHD that didnt answer my question
qqwg12345 you can find this info all over YouTube. Search for some common fpv components. Joshua bardwell has a whole playlist explaining from start to finish including the vtx.
kenneth Lebron for controller frsky Taranis qx7s or x9d plus se, for reciever crossfire nano or frsky and googles probably attitude v4 or v5
What battery do you use? Link please
Nice video. What about the battery?
@RaygrHD but, in the description do they list a receiver or no?
hmm, This channel is super cool – and Aussie!
how much range do these have? and will these be good for videos of chasing cars. please reply
qqwg12345 by receiver, I’m guessing you mean for the video. You can receive video through fpv goggles, or through a stand-alone system more commonly connected to a small display. If this is what you’re looking for then you want to look for a 5.8ghz system.
There are a multitude of in depth guides right here on YouTube. I would suggest searching for fpv beginners guides etc, this will more than likely bring you up to speed with all the terminology and hardware used in the hobby. Hope this helped.
Awesome video and thank you for providing the links for all the components. Why didn’t you use the tmotor f 80 pro They are very powerful motors . Please consider doing a 7 to 8 inch long-range quad build also consider doing the tricopter lr quad build. Rock on dude ???.
Which Stack is better? Hobbywing XRotor micro 60A with F4 G3 FC or the Titan Plus F460?
Dude , you didn’t show us how to setup the controller and which controller to buy , please help!
“Bob’s your uncle” = “and what do you know…”? Or “voila”?
and the battery?
I love the sleek frames in both builds. Those bad boys look like they would stand up to years worth of beatings and crashes. And they can be very inexpensive as well. Same goes for the motors: they show great performance and look absolutely outstanding. That’s the thing about FPV in 2019. Parts such as motors, ESC’s, FC’s, Props, and more can be high performance, but at a low cost. I think that there will be a breakthrough in the upcoming months with drones that showcase speed, stability, strength and great looks. Thanks for the great videos and guides Stew!
@UAVfutures I would like to try this. But where do I start? Like what do I buy/build first if I have little to no rc flying experience?
Check Mr Steele Videos. There is a multi part series
that chick was cute.
i started off with a cheap syma ,leanrt to fly then went to a phantom 3 now i have a mavic air ,was always keen on trying racing drones and grangers one looks the business ,great way to start out for learners i recon ,cheers guys fantastic work! hope someone new too drones win these ;0)
These super tiny plug n’ fly stacks seem very convenient but I am a bit concerned about maintainance… Is it easy to find and replace individual boards if needed?
Wow. Awesome. I came here because i was looking at premade drones. But what a great video. Gives me confidence to build one. Cheers.
Yes, Stew first build ($99 build) got me into building quads. Now I’m hooked. Highly recommend building one that way you know how to fix after crashes.
@Mike Rutschilling that’s awesome. What goggles and remote do you use. That’s the next on my list to look into.
For my first build I used the FlySky FS-i6 as a controller. The goggles I have are the Eachine EV800D. Slowly am getting better equipment. However, I am happy with that as a first buy. I have a few (not great) videos showing some of the equipment with links. Just in case you are curious.
is any batterie comparebale with the extreme (advanced) version?
Is there any info on setting the PIDs? I can solder and build these drones but I have ZERO idea how to set PIDs
I’m newbie.. So what controller to used?
Really just starting to get into quads learning alot from your channel thanks guys looking for where to start.
I kinda wanted you to let the other guy talk.
wow I’m so hype for these drone, I will try to build one, but how to connect the controller to the drone, pls make a video for that lolll
focus man… focus. You’re using HD camera but you’re out of focus all the time
The light version is amazing but not as fast as the performance version. But then again it uses less power making it extremely efficient. What I love about these builds is the customization factor you put in them. This is extremely helpful since u can personalize your drone making it efficient and also less expensive by not wasting much money on other components. Drone racing in 2019 is much more better than before since there are new companies who make components cheaper and the overall sport easy to pick up
What size capacitors do you recommend. Also are they useful on all builds or just 6s
Rocket propelled grenades or drone proprelled grenades
Oh I think thats a brilliand idear beacuse I’m flying fpv since a few weeks and I love and this is perfekt for me to know more about fpv quads
Thank you very mutch
I want to buy this drone but there a are always options like motors kav…. can someone pls help me what he is using in the video
would be nice to see you tune it
What battery are you using in grangers build?
Which one is faster???
The thing is that is if I want to spend my hard earned money I want to get the best so if I may ask which drone is faster?. Thanks
Hello good people, I’m looking to build my first drone, I don’t get why you guys pick F4 FCs over F7, is there any advantage ? (isn it older?)
What battery do you use in your drone???
What battery do you use in your drone ???
Is it just the motor you are using There that is working to the drone.
If this is fast, how long is able to fly? there is no risk to burn the engines, if I’ll be change batery and flight to flight second batery? what (in average) is time flight?
I’m not looking for a racing drone I would prefer a drone for some nice footages. Any suggestions what I can replace?
Do u need to buy the camera that goes with the vtx because I bought the light build camera and the speed vtx on accident.
@Voyager FPV usd
He never zoom when he solder that’s fuck …..
Has anybody tried using super capacitors
Love your videos! I recently watched your tyro99 build video and was inspired to build it. It was my first drone, loved the building process and your helpful videos on the process. A couple days ago I flew it into a lake on accident, oops. That hasn’t stopped me from continuing in the hobby. Hope to start a new build soon. Thanks for your videos!
Ps. Opt in for the give away?!?!?
These are some nice looking quads. Pnp is the way to go for beginners like myself. I just built my first quad a few weeks ago, and it was a success thanks to all the great knowledge that you share on your channel.
where is the battery? when does the battery get put in?
Pushing the drone around with the soldering iron, holding it on there too long and complaining about using pliers because the wires get hot (surprised you didnt burn the board btw), unnecessary talking and not enough explaining, liking viewers question comments but not answering their questions. Nice.
This Video doesn’t cover 2 important things:
1. What FPV goggles will work with this drone and how to set them up
2. What is the recommended battery and how to install it
Can someone please advise on above?
This build is well over 200$ now
any fpv goggles will work as they can all cycle between frequencys (also called channels), so even if you get $60 box goggles or fat shark HDOs it will always work, just switch between the channels on what ever goggles you find until your quad camera replaces the static.
for battery’s its a bit more complicated, for these quads you will need a LIPO (lithium polymer) battery. for both quads its will be a 6s (6 is how many cells) and around 75-150c at 1000-1500Mah would be the best, i personally am running 4s because my quad is older but will be making the switch to 6s when i can afford it.
also the XT60 is where the battery plugs in to and a battery strap is used to hold the battery to the underside of the quad , if you want more details there are many vids on youtube that can help you with these things
hopefully this was helpful
very useful for assembling a drone ?
What size capacitor?
We need perm racing drone tracks setup in a few of the drone test zones!!
Nice builds but I would definitely change the vtx to tbs since in most races not all vtx’s are allowed and in some tbs is required.
@big man Doesn’t this build also need a transceiver for the controller? I didn’t see anything about that in the parts, I only see the VTX board.
Ok for the second time typing this , what is the max flight time and the max distance vertical and horizontal for Granger’s build? What’s the best Goggles and opinions about Orqa? If someone could afford to spend more money, what would you upgrade on Granger’s build?
For myself and others can you please explain the difference of each?
Side note, it’s very windy in my area most of the time. What is the max wind mph these can handle?
what about fpv and radio?
recommendations?
What’s its range? Can you add GPS connection to the drone?
One of the things I would love to see, as someone has said below, is a partnership between you and your fellow pilots and a company that can supply your builds with one click.
Maybe not a prebuilt quad but one click for your famous $99 builds or even this race build. As much as I love the hunt, one click, get your kit and follow along with the build. Much respect brother. I can’t wait to get back up in the air.
P.S. you should get a piece ($) of every kit sold by the way 😉
What kv motor for each build?
for the love of god get some proper wire strippers….
which Fps Headset do you use?
yes i Need that too
I’m going with Skynet (oops lol) Skyzone fpv… Which remote controller? Fun times, can’t wait to get the order
William Cannady beo can I use this drone for cinematic videos
i never considered getting into drone racing or fpv but ive watched serveral of your videos now and am considering it i dont know where to begin or what but man it would be nice to win one
They are fast, light, made with good and quality components. What could I want more? Btw I am beginning FPV and races.
What power source is used with this quadrocopter, and also are there any more-budget on stacks?
Hello guys. I’m new into this. Please can someone tell me how can I make this drones follow me alone? Like I drive my car and this thing follows me. Is that possible? If yes. Any how to install a second camera focusing down? Thanks guys. Sorry I’m totally new to this. Cordially Avi
Grainger interesting name for a lady
UAVfutures how do you reverse the motors?
@Paul Park You just go in betaflight, if you want props out, click reverse motors, the go into blheli and just say forwards or backwards
So fast!!!
Angus deDear they are 6 s they said that there all made for 6 s in the beginning.
Name of song used??
what battery does it use
This might be a stupid question but can these carry a GoPro and if I can how long would the battery life be?
Sorry if the answer is in the video. I haven’t watched it all yet.
you showed a cap you put on the power cords but i don’t see it in the description. Do I need to have that? if so can I have a link to where I can get that cap?
Doing this build right now. I really wish you would have into a little detail on camera mounting.
I love that you bring us cheap drones. I’m impressed that this kwad can fly 185 kmh. The motors look shiny and they are really powerfull
FPV in 2019 is growing up more and more. I’m new to FPV, too. And I think this kwad need skill , but when you got it you’ll be happy.
is it big enough to fly a gopro and can it do free style ?
I have been wanting to build one for sooo long but don’t have the money for one ?
Could I win a giveaway please !????
If I build grangers will it work with my walkera devo 12?
Can you stick a go pro on one of these as well as a battery???
I removed my headphones to look for the mosquito
Sorry, to be lazy… about how much would you have in a nice DURABLE build. (Some speed mostly strong and fpv) Thanks…!
Why lover kV and 6S?
Let’s hit the like button in 3, 2, 1 Cyberptruck ?? ?
Can you use 5s or 4s on this setup?
is this a dude-chic? realy lol
what remote and goggles did you use for grangers build?
What I gonna use xing brushless motor or the Emax eco 2207 brushless motor?
Please help me I’m beginner
I need one of those can you ship me as a give away you can contact me on Instagram : @limitless_science
I wanna do this but with the dji air unit
I’m guessing you can connect goggles to these how do you do that and which do you recommend
Can i put your camera on his frame
u didn’t say anything about the reciver the drone needs and didn’t link it?
Hi there i m your new sub even its been more than 2 year i have been watching u BTW i m entering in this hobby watched your this video wondering why use capacitor with drone and what type cause gonna copy your this build would you make video on this?
You should do a video on the X4 storm h122d.
I want to build new drone i Was pratecing on simulator and on hubsan h122d. I need to one if foss frame is good or not because it hasn’t got protetcion
The only downside to this video is that you never did a close up of the camera’s after they were mounted. Did you use spacers to get the camera’s mounted or something else?
Hi im a newbie to this what remote control do you need to buy for this setup
Friendly reminder, in the United States, Federal Aviation Regulations Part 107 forbids Unmanned Aerial Vehicles weighing less than 55 lbs from traveling faster than 100 mph.
I love this hobby, I’m not trying to be a buzzkill. But I’d hate for anyone to get in trouble.
Can you speak any faster
DionisioVega, I’m having the same issue. How did you mount the camera’s?
@Ex.CEll I had to go out and buy some longer M2 screws to mount my runcam, went with 2x6mm and then used some spacers to center the camera on the Vampire frame.
DionisioVega did the tilt on the camera stay when you flew?
What Google and remote are you using?
@Ex.CEll with the longer screws and spacers, I have had no issues with the camera while flying.
DionisioVega Ok, thanks. I’ll do that then
Hello bro I have a tyro99 and fs i6 reciever they are not working together can you please help
“And Bob’s your uncle” lol.. love it
“And Bob’s your uncle” lol.. love it
about how far does the drone fly?
of which kv must be the engine of the ULTRA LIGHT ROCKET BUILD
New to this. How much would a build like this cost in USD?
Great Build. I love it.
What kv motors did u use?
What kv motors did u use?
Any idea how to fit in MicroSwift 3 v2 camera to Flywoo vampire frame?
attached holder is too big and without it camera is too small and screws too short.
This is not shown on the video, in fact i think he used Microswift 2 instead 3 like in description.

Wow ! This is so exciting !!!
Hello Stu
What KV rating are the motors……. ps i hope you are safe in oz have you not been affected by the fires ?
Could you use double sided tape instead of blue tack and is there any way to balance components for better balance
insane… newbie drone guy here so wanna build one of these…
Amazing Builds! I’m jealous!!
I thought the one at the right was a girl.
Stu, the esc on the small quad is rated at 45a burst surely that quad gonna burn it out…have you put any protection aids in place? because it looks like the way u fly it will kill that mini stack very soon please reply, cheers mate and good work
I thought the guy on the right was a girl till he talked lmao
Can be buy it please
Does anyone know how to find the serial number for a wizard x220hv?
What kv motors were used? You never say and the link is dead.

Wheres the part 2 for to help bind it to the controller and the goggles
My Son is a Physic Major at at NC State Engineering school. I got My degrees in EE, Mathematics and Physics at Va Tech.
We are currently doing our own due dilligengengence and buildinding drones from scratch to race each other this summer for $1000.
We don’t share any info but talk a lot of smack… We agreed on certain specs to follow (frame size, prop size. Everything else is a free for all.) We live on a lake the course will be to travel through a number of boat houses and under and over docks. Can’t wait. Hope to develope a croud and get more people interested… even in if it’s different sizes/classes.
Thank you again for your site!!

Great video, how did you go about mounting a GoPro on this build?

Hey stew, Thanks for the great build video. As a newb I have no clue what I am doing, I just know that I would be lost without your videos. I’ve been watching a lot of your builds to figure out what I need to do.
It sounds awesome
CAN I will get a Drone by Giveaway

My comment is your very eager to interrupt your friend and won’t shut up enough to let anyone talk.
Love your content otherwise tho

*future security, motion detection hunter seeker drones for large areas…multiple deployment, coordinated attacks and containment abilities…you are not gonna get away from these things regardless of how clever you might think you are…and these are just the unarmed versions…after market upgrades will change that very quickly….just sayin”*
Does anyone know what the antenna is because im planing to build this but the link for the antenna doesnt work.
A think it a New start ? for a beging, there for a race park could be the best way to try the certain drone like F. P. V. From YouTube wifi channel U.A.V.☘️? futures Nefi at 95322 Gustine town 1605 ? from 95116 yellow scouts e.san.a. Underground. History timeline lov? YouTube channel DJ Nefi America ?
? Question .. is flying licence still necessary for an American holiday, or on a teen adult birthday. When he or she dosen’t fly that much, or often, but as some good experience of RC training.?☘️????
Wow ? one hundred and fifteen M.P.M.
Hi. I built a DIY fpv some time ago following UAV Futures instructions. The fpv is super unstable and keeps crashing. Starting to get fed up with it. Is there anything you can recommend to stabilize it? I was thinking if installing a GPS. Any thought would be most welcome.
What about the battery?
How much do something like that cost? Actually ordered the Eashine Novice 3 to start flying.. I hope it work well
what parameters should the battery have?
How long does this fly?
I love building quads but they cost so much? in 2017 I built over 20 5″quads.. Today I Rebuilt the old X215 Pro and made it nice and clean with smart audio ?? Thanks Stewart for all your dedication and work for the channel ??
@UAVfutures the link for some of the build parts are no longer active. If I buy the 2700 kv motors how would that change the performance? Also if I buy a frsky radio does that mean I can only fly this one build?
Does anybody has the Ultra light rocket build stack name or the link?Mine doesn’t work
Flying times?
How much does this cost?
i swear i thought it was a girl till he talked… lol

Stuart bro ur such a great person I love your videos.. I see all of your videos and dream of building one drone for myself in my life all I want to do is fpv racing u tell its 200 dollars.. but what about remote and headset. In my country,India 300 dollars is extremely expensive and i with all my power also cannot afford that much.. i know you will not reply coz thousands have commented and I obviously can’t see mine. Just would really appreciate If you could giveaway one of your drones to me…
Bro how do you setup remote and fpv for this plz help brio
that thing could take someone’s head off
how long do the batteries last?
How were the recordings stored? Via SD-Card in the drone or transmitted to the remote? I wan’t to buy one myself and start flying but don’t know alot yet so i’m just going through all the details before i do.
39:53 how is that trick called? its amazing
which battery are you using plz reply

Can you mount a go pro on these builds
Hi there I’m brand-new at drones but have been watching videos non-stopI’m just worried if I build a strong I will need help from Midway any tips ?
Interesting…Granger (legit) has the same “twitch” as me. I’m over it now(took years of self-help etc), but anxiety usually triggered that response…and here I am just randomly trying a new hobby/potential lifestyle…small world…thanks for the build though? I’ve subscribed.

Hey mate. The links in the description are not valid anymore?
wait.. do you need to solder?
how do I connect my rc to the drone? What rc do I use? What headset do I use?
it’s tiny!
This video was released on my birthday! So the parts I like most on each build are 1.) Your motors and frame choice, and Grangers motors are pretty rad too. And the camera as well. Cheers! FPV racing has really helped me. I am a combat veteran from the army and it has helped me build friendahips and get out of my shell. I love watching your informative videos btw!
Hi Im new to fvp and I bought a rtf emaz tynyhawk 2 its been a month and Im still waitting in the mail for it. Meanwhile Ive been reading about drone components how they work and what they do. Like the video transmitters and receivers Its been a little complicated to understand but i think I got the basics. I came to realize that its better to build your own fvp drone according to what you want to do with it. Thats why I have been watching videos like this so that I can build my own. I like the smaller drone the one in the 230$ range. I also have some questions but they may get answered after wacthing some of your videos on your playlist
What receiver can I use to get the most out off the smaller drone the 230$ range one on the video? A receiver that is not too expensive? And when I build this drone with the antenas shonw on the video how far can I fly? I want to be able to fly about one mile distance. And also what good economy goggles can I use for this set?
Thanks a lot for your help your channel has lots of helpful information and Its well organized, the video and audio quality are excellent.
dude im concerned about your health dont let the smoke touch your face.
Witch battery do you use for the speed build?!? S4-S6? Cheers! <3
Love it

Im thinking of making your build, does the stack break easily?
So that’s a male with you. Bt I thought……..female
Should do the light build with the power parts ?
Insane footage!
one question: witch remote controll should I buy with this setup?
What do you connect to rx6? I’m thinking vbat+ on the run cam but I have no idea what I’m doing and don’t want to screw it up. I cant find it in the video except when you add solder to the rx6 tab.
Are both drones specialized towards twisting type courses vs long courses with few and wide turns, like a pyramid shaped course vs a big oval?
how did u mount the run cam to grangers build?
I’m a beginner, what would be a good reasonably priced radio and set of goggles?
Is it just me but does Granger look like he’s be held hostage for the first minutes of the video?

so I saw one of your previous drone videos when i was ten, and i’m like, hmm lets try. my soldering was sh*tty as heck and now I’m thinking if I want to disassemble it and build it again cuz the one I built when I was ten doesn’t work at all. lol

Hey, I saw one other person ask the question, but didn’t see an answer: where do I find those hex drivers you’re using to purchase?
I’ve never flown a drone but I want to get into this. I like how customizable everything is. Like on a micro level the weight and size of EVERYTHING will make a difference in some way. So awesome. Time to start saving up money now!
What type of battery could I use for this drone?
that girl sounds like a man
That was fast forward camera.

Could you put a 3D camera in that 230gms lighter one and make a video? It would be the most addictive drone in human history.
