Hey dude im loving your vids they are really informative especially as I'm so new to this hobby.
I would really appreciate any help you might be able to give with any spare parts you might have laying around your workshop to help me get it on my way would be greatly appreciated FPV forever

Which firmware version came on the flightboard? "version" in the CLI should show it.

[jimbubbatube]

This is still one of my favorite videos. Thanks for taking the time out of your day to do all of this. Did you ever figure out how to get telemetry to work? I really appreciate all the steps you took. Is the s.port pad just dead or something?

Hello. Mark this I now watched all. Finally. ;) All 3h40m. :) Posted question are more in look of building the 79, which is interesting to me.

For me AK-47 looks like a keychain, at least I would use it for that. :D
FC looks really nice with a lot of UARTS.
For sorting screws is nice to have some small boxes that not mess them during the build. At least I will use it, when(if) I will build 79. I will for sure building 79 few days, for sure not in 1 day. ;)

Yes there could be a mess at hexagonal screwdrivers. Some 2mm works, some 2mm looks like to big and not fits. While I don't have 2, 5mm screws to check if fits there.

Shark leader looks really nice. (Y) Shark tail. :)

Do you have any video how to put stack together? For 79 I will need that, cos there stack is not together.
Thank you.
What you think is it better to firstly put stack together, or firstly solder motors and then put boards together?

Passed first 40 minutes. Already eaten 3 toast sandwiches. 3 hours to come. No additional eating until 1 hour pass. ;)

About Aliexpress I can't say quite good things. I ordered just about 15 items(mostly batteries cos Gearbest and Banggood not sending them in Europe) and I already need to demand 3 refunds. Cos items simply didn't came. + They not have Paypal payments. :( Much better works eBay, for sure.

How motors should be installed? I know CW and CCW should go where place is for them. But what about wires? Each motor have 3 black wires, are they labeled? Is there any order where should be solder, or doesn't matter?

It passed 1h15mins, now I'm going to search some tortilla chips. :)

If I understand right, is possible to connect FC to computer right after stack is put together, to check if ESCs and other thing works right. How you know that stack works as should. Any video how you checking just stack?

So when you solder wires through pads holes, then you not pre-tin pads. While when you just put wires on pads, then you pre-tin pads for easier joint?

Tortilla chips has gone, also I will quit first part of watching the video. It passed already half of video, 1h50mins. Can't believe I'm on half. It didn't looks so long for now.


Second part of watching. Question is, if I will success to see this video just in 2 parts. Hmmm. I need some snacks like at first part. ;)

If I remember, at starts of stream there was discussion about low temperatures in start of September. Today is 25.1.19 and we will probably have the lowest temps this winter at us. It's announced that will freeze to -12°C(=10°F) in the early morning. Quite cold, but usually the lowest temps during winter are even more freezing, to about -15°C(5°F). While 2 years ago at last day of 2016, we had -20°C(-4°F). Brrrr this is the lowest that I remember. This is more colder then in freezer. At some near towns was even -22°C(-8°F). O.k. back to stream. ;)

At updating receivers(xm+ for example) is better to disconnect them from drone? Or could be connected in drone? Ofcourse without battery on. I have clamps which could be very to easy to use at receivers already installed in drones.

Hehe what a nice octopus. ;)

Nice to show how to reverse motors. (Y)

Also I was one of them who watched your Wizard 220S videos a lot, cos there was a chance that I will got Wizard as my first racing drone.

Also I like the most orange drones, props, O.k. also purple. For drones looks such live colours the best.

It's passed 3 hours. I didn't find any snacks. :( I hardly see to finish the video without food. Need somethin to nibble. ;) For coffee is a little late at 11p.m. I have to finish now. Will stay just 40 mins for part 3.


The 3rd part of watching the video. Now i'm eating salad. :) ;)

I had great weekend. 2 days of skiing. Whole Slovenia was under the snow for few days. Snow was everywhere. But yesterday on Monday was raining the whole day. Ahhhghgh :( In 2 days from -12°C to +5°C in the morning.

Nice that they give a lot of zip ties. I see you put them everywhere is possible. ;)

And it happens. Came to the end of video. :) It is interesting video. Gave nice view how to build a drone, also how much time is needed for this. Thank you, good luck. (Y)

[FilibertoCastro]

Hey everyone! Please forgive me for being such a noob, I am currently in the process of building my first FPV drone. Im aiming for a freestyle build. I have a question if anyone can help me out with. If I put rubber O ring between the motor and the carbon fiber frame; will that help to reduce any vibration?

[hack_it]

Built mine all the way up today plugged in and the esc doesnt work at all :( everything else is powering up just fine. The fc and vtx power on and i have a picture in the goggles.

[danbonde]

P.s. I meant to add I intend to create a first-time build video from as many spare donated parts as possible I think as well as being a great help to me on a 0 too low budget would make for an interesting watch as well

[chrisw]

I bought one and it had something wrong with it so I had it replaced and that one a piece of trash as well I'm done with these piles of shit

[maxiemusfpv]

Sorry Mark i would have definitely been live with you but you streamed it at 5 am :(

[seifer]

How did you get telemetry to work? My frsky XSR receiver isn´t working on any UART. Any advice?

[Ksmeex]

Just got email from banggood saying mine has shipped! Hoping this will be a good intro build for some friends I’m trying help get more into the hobby.

[divadonroda]

Manual is in product description in web site ready for download.

[Lostprophet]

have you find the right settings for S.Port?

[kyma]

What battery? Ordered one for a spare drone yesterday.

[norbertwenkel]

Hey there, would be interesting to know which UART is connected to the S.Port Pad on the FC and if you need to to use the uninverted s.port signal of a e.g. frsky r-xsr receiver
