Mockup

My first build using my knowledge from owning a Wizard and knowing what fails on it. Any help would be great! Still debating if I go 4in1 ESC or single ones. Also Blheli_S or Blheli_32?

You can save quite a bit of money by going with an Omnibus board. If you aren't running individual ESCs you don't really need a PDB FC. Are you running a 16:9 headset? Otherwise you don't need the Monster cam. I heard it's difficult to find a good lens replacement for a wider FOV. You're probably better off with a Runcam Swift variant or an HS1177. And finally I'd just get a VTX03 and use the included antenna. It gives you great reception for the price and you can save the cost of the Aomway antennas.

Thanks for ur feedback. I was looking at the omnibus f4 pro FC as I want the amp meter. The thing that turned me off was how u had to wire it up to the esc and battery. Also the matek runs a 32k gyro. Do u know what the latest omnibus board runs? As for the camera and VTX I already have them on my wizard so was planning to swap them over. Have u used the latest Racerstar tattoo 4in1 ESC with Blheli_32? Any feedback on them would be great! Thanks mate ðŸ‘ðŸ¼

There are 4-in-1 ESCs that have a current sensor. I think that's a better place for it. I'm not sure how useful the 32k gyro is unless you can run 32k system wide. I've never tried that personally. I have not tried the BLHeli_32 ESC yet, but probably sometime soon.
