JakubFPV Jun 13, 2018

Its all there

Could you please tell me the weight and flight time?

JakubFPV Mar 23, 2018

AUW is 62g, and flight time is ~5:40 on full throttle

Looks pretty good! Good work.

Hi, could you post a picture of how you attached the cloverleaf to the VTX03? Also how well does this fly maneuverability-wise?

JakubFPV Jan 25, 2018

Hi, it has an u.fl connector so that's how you attach it, then I secured it with a little hot glue.
Its pretty bad maneuverability-wise to be honest, since it's low T:W ratio

I'm so confused as to what makes this a long range quad VS anything else? Just the fact that you're using an XM+? I'd be afraid of flying something this small very far. I lose mine 50 feet in front of me.

JakubFPV Sep 22, 2017

I think that the 5+ min on full throttle flighttime makes it long range :)
And the XM+ can go probably 2+km easily
and the 200mw vtx compared to standard 25mw on similiar builds

FissionBomb Sep 22, 2017

Fair enough. I think long range is relative. Considering this is such a small craft "long range" is relative.

JakubFPV Sep 22, 2017

Exactly :)

Very cool but I bet you could do 2km with a real battery instead of that zop crap. When zop says 850mah what they really mean is 500mah but the weight and size of an 850mah battery
