Maybe it’s not directly from 2015 or 2016, but most components match. Let’s take a look at what was considered a standard mini quad in 2016 based on my ZMR250 with SP Racing F3, FrSky X8R, and Emax Red Bottom 2205 motors. Comparing to how we build FPV drones now, some ideas you will see over here are hilarious!

That’s a BOS 600mw VTX. I’ve got the same one and it even has 600mw written on it in your video.
Assume we’ll get to see a flight!
I’ve been building quads since 2013, but larger ones for mapping, based on ardupilot. A few months ago I’ve learned of FPV and got interested, and I can’t believe how much things have evolved from what I was used to.
Start of a new series? Evolution of fpv. Next is blheli s 20a with clean flight or early bf and bull nose props ?
P. S gdzie dostanę taki pasek na lipo?
If you were to Make ZMR250 Great Again with modern gear, would it fly just as great as any modern frame?
Hehe I have this thing to in my hobby room ? but only with a AfroNaze which doesn’t can sbus ???
Still flies not fast but it flies ???
My mindset in the university labs after this, “..if anybody wants to do something stupid, why not…”
I made my first fpv quad with aluminium body and arms, the FC was a DiY NAZE32 from RCgroups, a flying brick, haha!
i take it the flight controller in it is an omni f3 standard,, or f4 of the same and not the naze 32 that we had back then? cars from 65 and older had the same thing as these motors, lugnuts on left side were clockwise to tighten and on the right side were counter clockwise to tighten .
ZMR rulez. You should show the tuning options for this frame: low rider/ tilted motor spacers/ side covers…
We have had one too. Immersion 600mW 8ch. Genuine immersion fpv cams 80 bucks each. Back then everything was sooo expensive. Including the original frame.
The 3d printer we have bought back in 2015 was supposed to be printing drone upgrades. And it had with great success.
The thing that most scares me is the size of the receiver! ?
Good old times!
Stay safe there with your family, Pawel! ??
Size of that receiver! Wow.
Zmr is still a good frame. Still flying this but with f7 fc with 50 amp esc
I still cherish my original quads – lots of good memories learning to build & fly…. also remember back in the days when quads + parts were a lot more expensive. 🙂
I like these history of quads! I relatively am new to the hobby and great to know.
I still use zmr v2 but I don’t feel any difference between the other frame and this while flying ,except the arm strength .
I’d like to see you fly it! Gotta break out one of my old 250s.
