how did you power your unify

JAYBIRD FPV Feb 11, 2019

Been so long now,lol. I believe I'm on batt. I'd have to tear it open to see.

Did you use ecalc at all for this? If so could you post a screenshot of the settings? I'm trying to recreate it, but the flight times are always low. Wondering if that's just ecalcs formula or if I'm putting in settings wrong. Whats the weight of your rig? Sweet setup btw

no ecalc. just built from what i know. maybe cause im overproped a little, could be why such long flight times. although im just cruising around to get this.

Hows this fly? Flight time?

JAYBIRD FPV Aug 07, 2018

if i had my time back i would have either went 5S on this, or tried to find a little lower kv motor. its just a tad overproped for 6". causes a little jello. but was getting 8-10 min with a calm Cruise. i'm running 5" on it now,and still managed to do a 2 km run. much better with 5", but can do 6".

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
