Master pilot - Chameleon 6

By SPST_V on Jun 23, 2017

7 914 10

Since I am more like a builder rather than a good pilot, I decided to hire some great pilot.

Not easy but I was lucky. I could find a pilot far much better than me, one of the best on earth.
I am pretty sure she will rock the jesus out of this quad, hope F7 and Blheli_32 Dshot 1200 can catch up her supreme rippage.

which pdb did you use and have you soldered the esc signal wires directly to the fc?

SPST_V Aug 09, 2017

Armattan mini pdb that came with the frame, signal wires yes.

How do you like those new ESCs? I have those same ones and going to put on my Chameleon. Was it difficult to set them up and get them synced?

I dont think so. That motors are pretty much capable of those props and I don't fly that aggressively:)
Maybe LED? lol
I have A LOT of Wraith32 ESCs on different builds,, I noticed all of them heats up relatively faster than what i have used before. But not to like dangerous temperature. I think it is fine.

I know the motors are capable, I just figured they'd be pretty amp hungry on 6" because of their size/kv

Sorry I missed that. I don't race and usually just cruising around with mild acro tricks, used to have Xrotor 30a on same 6inch setup but never felt it getting hot. You know 6inch is more efficient when just cruising around with proper setup, I come down with cold batteries most of time.. So I guess it is just because of faster MCU and LED.

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

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..
