Beginners guide to building an awesome high performance FPV racing drone. If you are unsure of what parts to get or what makes a good quad then this is perfect for you. We are going to build with a KIT Dubai Flyer and add in our own FPV gear. Kit
Just got an email from gearbest telling me that they are having a sale on and this quad is down to $150 USD..
Any questions just leave them below.

Happy Flying
Another video full of great content. Thanks for posting. You gonna need a
bigger wall for all them quads! Haha
You ever use a solder sucker? There seemed to be a skosh too much solder on
those ESCs
Why do you not connect your ESC grounds to the flight controller?
on my opinion it is better to solder both the signal wire and ground wire
of esc signal cable to the flight controller. Sometimes there are some
issues with esc flashing through fc, and motor sync when there is no ground
esc wire on fc.
I wish I would have watched this video first lol, I just built this,
I think my ESCs are better, but I definitely like your FC better. I am
building this now
I felt bad like I had a problem, because I have another one coming, a
Vortex 285 I don’t really fly anymore and another QMR or ZMR or whatever it
is clone sitting half built in a box, and a 6″ Martian in disrepair, then I
saw all the quads you have haha!
When you flip in acro mode, do you have to roll the oposite direction after
the flip? Say you roll to the right so you move your stick to the right, to
stop the roll do you just center the stick or do you have to add left bank
too counter act the roll to the right? Thanks help appreciated.
Doesn’t this motors need some more amp ESC’s? Read that somewhere…
Hard-wiring servo direction? Barbaric! :D
If you want to polish up the look a little, grab some of these silicone
grommets for your power lead . I got some for my LS210 which appears to be
basically the same kit and they fit perfectly.
Holy sh$t your making so good videos if somone ask for how to build a
racing drone look this youtube vid your making so good vids man :)!!!!!!
Anytime I watch one of your videos and you’re soldering, it looks as if
you’re just breathing in the solder fumes… Do you wear a mask? Or are you
just a bamf?
I did yesterday my first FPV flight with my modded Hubsan H107D. This is
really great =)
Is it possible to upgrade later?
You were a bit lazy with the motors wires this time lol
Great narrative build as usual!
These stocks PIDs were pretty close to a good tune lol Have a great weekend
Just wondering what battery you’re using for this build?
Great video, thx. Don’t think the link “Link to spread sheet of all
components. – ” is working. Would like to buy and try, but need
recommendations for the fpv, reciver and battery.
Stuart, when I’m flying, at what cell voltage should I stop (Eg. 3.3v per
cell)? Many thanks, Nikolai
What controller are you using?
the future if racing drone competition
forget a buzzer?
sir! how much in your drune??
or how much the items of drune?
what’s pdb matek type
How good does your soldering need to be???

How do you connect your fpv to your headset I’m having so trouble will it
You want to make sure your soldering is pretty good. If your soldering is too close to other wires it could short out your FC. That would be bad. It’s not too hard to solder right. Don’t add too much and if you still have questions there are a bunch of youtube videos that go over it.
love it. Now I’m sure that I am going to build my own! thank you
What are some of the best software’s to get?
You have cleared up all my mini quad build questions thanks man.
Yusuf Halabi I’m a J std and milspec soldering instructor who has built and reworked items orbiting the earth and I taught a 9 year old in 10 minutes enough to solder his own. I also showed him some advanced balancing and resistance tuning to get his up and running in a local spec class racing league.
Point being that soldering isn’t hard, just buy a proto board and practice. I learned when I was in a robotics program that IBM had at my school in the 80’s.
Racerstar motor are good
how do you choose a reciever? I have a devo 7 transmitter but I dont know what reciever to buy.

Which receiver did u use and what radio did u use
Dude, how is this a beginners guide? I Don’t know what a esv dpt ods hfgikjfgdksahlfkldhsjkfhas fucking is….
what temp. do you soldier @?? i have herd 350 to 650??
Racerstar esc are good for drone
You never teach how to install the receiver for the remote control
What transmitter you use
Jarrod Williams
BetaFlight, BLheli
Both on chrome store
Thank you so much, this is by far the best build video I have seen so far!!!!
do I have to worry that much about parts not working together?

Also, how did you connect the camera wires, and the video transmitter wires? did you solder them? (sorry, i’m kinda new to this stuff)

What controller do you use for these? And how do you connect them? Also, how do you set them up using the software????? So many questions!!
how do you program your drone with your computer? plz make a video
Were I can buy the material?
Day landing doe
Can i using a aomway vtx and then im using fatshark dominator goggles with same antenna,please answer
Pedro Guerreiro you can buy it on amazon or many online shop
yash khaprey yep,also a cheap shit
Adam Le Tarouilly he uses frsky x4rsb
iqbal hidhayat indonesia?
Did all motors are clock wise?
Did you use a go pro for this test flight video??
everything fine but how to setup board on program and then how to control via our ios or android phones

Can I join futaba SBUS receiver?
I love it you continue to build my confidence
Have you ever 3 centered starting a Facebook page ?
U can but for me it was a pain in the ass (or maybe I had a broken board cuz I bought a new one) it also depends on the remote I think only the newer models con do it I think

Just chip in some money and buy a turnagy evolution if u will spend alot of money buying futaba recievers as they are expensive

Sathesh Roman lol no one controlls race quads with drones

It says the kit was discontinued for me PLEASE make another kit video.
can u make a very in detail video about what each part does and how it works and where the power flows to what to make it work?
it is OK for this quad a 2s 1500mAh 75c 11.1V battery?
some of the acronym you use I don’t know. well almost all of them.
No one actually shows how to do the programming or what ever. I don’t really care if it’s simple or not. I would like to see it done before I actually attempt it.
All righty!?
I have to know! are you saying glue or blue tac?
It’s been discontinued 🙁
Hi Stu, this has to be one of the clearest beginner build videos. Really liked it ? Doing my first build soon of the featherlight 4 inch and will be using all that useful info as a guide. Thank you! Lil nervous to connect everything properly but also excited to progress in the hobby 🙂 Best,
Paul
Good vid, just a bit fast for beginners.
