How to Build an FPV RC Car in 2021!!!! - 4k

Thank you for watching and if you're reading this, you're awesome.

All the links!

Build/Parts List:

DIY Cable components for Crossfire Micro / ELRS Micro Modules:

How to videos:

You need to add a connector to hook up power to the air unit, be sure to get about 2 feet of wire too to come off of your car's battery / esc.

Some 5.8ghz gear:

1.3ghz video coming soon! Will update links after more tests.

Good stuff. I agree not enough fpv car content.

I agree Chadd, there are not enough ground FPV vids. This is very helpful, especially learning realistic range capabilities of the different frequency setups. You made one of the more informative ground FPV vids and I've been scanning Youtube for 6 months. I got into RC because I wanted to drive around the neighborhood. Little did I know that it would be so tough just to get around the block, which I have yet to accomplish. It seems like I have to drop $1k to get beyond 100 yards of range.

1000 thank you..your frozen images are the BEST THING..because for someone like me who has a lot of misery because of the start and has the bad luck of Never finding what is needed..anyé THANK YOU!

I’ve got a clodbuster.. custom. This had been my trail truck for walking trails for almost 20 years. I’ve worked at a battery company so SLA used were abundant. Miles over the years snow plowing has been it’s thing .
I’m
Thinking for us older folk
to design FPVs for utilities at home snow plowing and yard work.
. AI a walking cart for groceries. Mathis is truly awesome. Ty for the breakdown and tips on how to build a cool system!

I have been getting into FPV R/C but I had no idea were to start on my own but this video seems like a good jumping of point, thank you

Just stick a phone with tape and start FaceTime 😂

So helpful I can’t find any vids about this stuff and as I’m bored lateley and I have a traxxas rc sitting around I decided to upgrade it to make it more fun but I can’t find any information so this vid is really helpful.

You have just BECOME ONE of my top 3 (rc advice) 1000 thank you 🎉😊

[ChrisLeeX]

This is best guide. Focused script, diagrams/effects with freeze frames on the important details 💯

I rigged my TRX4 Bronco with a all the FPV and Ardupilot goodness. I had to design a laser cut balsa wood structure in CAD so that I could mount a head tracked pan and tilt inside of the cockpit. So worth all the work and money😂

You got a new sub from me! Great video - love the engineering and the humor. I like your friend's build too with the camera on top.

Bruh, the way you speak is low-key relaxing 😅

The puppy is so cute and the rcca is so cool ❗❗❗👍

It's great that you had the idea to offer a video on how to build an FPV RC car, I thank you for the effort, and I really hate to be critical -- but speaking as a completely inexperienced beginner, it was just frustrating. I was so proud that I built my own 4WD, 2-speed crawler with locking hubs all by myself -- I just want to drive it FPV around my backyard. But building the crawler was easy, it was a kit and just had to follow the directions. That was nothing compared to this electronic stuff with no instruction manual, no idea what pieces are compatible with each other, how to connect them, how to power them or how to get the video feed. Sadly, your video didn't answer those questions. I understand I need a camera and a set of goggles, plus I need an "800mw VTX." I think that's a transmitter but instead the link you provided seems to be for a 200mw transmitter. How do you know what pieces are compatible with each other? How do you connect them? And how do you power this stuff? Separate battery (what size?) or how to connect to RC car battery? It's "super easy" for YOU because you're smart and experienced, but I'm not and a few seconds looking at your car at 1:45 didn't make it look "super easy" at all. And you might as well have been speaking Greek in the rest of the video. I am hoping you will consider making another video and just go over the 5.8 system very slowly in great detail and assume that your viewers know absolutely nothing. THAT will make it "super easy."

next step is adding pan tilt. i love it :) cheap to build with a arduino hadtracker. did it for my plane now planning for a drift car

[tfsbuilds]

Just found your channel, absolutely love the ingenuity

[semadragun]

Great video, loved the footage and subbed.
Aww the puppy soo cute at the start of the video!🥰

[cnance]

Nice info ! Man that setup is so cool 😎 I got to get one the video is so much better

[anthonyschuld]

Just starting out with fpv.
Great information a big thumbs up.
Love ya work

[Islandpandemonium]

That is so bad ass, seems like you need a large vehicle to start with.My Kraton not so much
