Very nice build! I have Pavo20 with normal O3 and I'm using it for slow indoor flights. It's nice to see that it can handle 720mah easily. I'm actually considering going for the GAONENG GNB LiHV 3S 11.4V 850mAh 60C as it can also fit in the tray but I'm not sure if it's bad that it has only 60C discharge. What do you think?

The only way to find out is to test it. I alway take the C ratings with a grain of salt... meaning it is not always correct. How do you plan to use these packs, slow cruising, or fast free style? You might be okay if you plan to fly it slow and keep the amp draw low. Also keep in mind, I have used higher C rating batteries that has more voltage sag than a lower C rating battery. For example, I have a set of GNB 1100mah 130C 6s that weighs and sags more, less capacity than a GNB 1000mah 100C lipos. So, once again, the only way to find out is to try it out. I personally have not tried that specific lipo before, so I can not approve or disapprove of it. I have tried a few different flavors of the GNB 720mah lipos and they all have been excellent in power and low weight. I typically do not like HV charging my lipos, because it "seems" to degrade my batteries faster.

thanks, that makes sense. I wouldn't want to sacrifice the longevity of the batteries. In this case I'll stick to GNB 660mah LiPO. With a calm flight I'm getting around 6 minutes flight. Curious if stripping the O3 unit would make it much longer. I'm using it also with 5 blade props as it's much quieter but maybe it probably drains the battery more.

Nicely constructed, Lynx. For my 5" project, I'm going to order a set of those same motors.

Getting ready to get one to build up. Your site is not accessible though. I'll have to buy from armattan.

Never mind, their shipping is atrocious. Had some high hopes.

I'm almost done with mine, had to take some time away for other things...

Where is that print for the antenna? I don't expect much response mssr. le drone

Rotorenpilot commented on a Build, PeptoBisBot   Feb 12, 2024  

Love those 3D prints (maybe I already commented that on the more purple version...not sure, but let me say it once more --> nice 3D prints). I also appreciate some clean shrink wrapping on that power cord.

Now after having enjoyed that digital video rant of yours, I find the choice of botgrinder's arch enemy..the evil DJI corporation a curious winner for this build...I also put some DJI in an old botgrinder frame (the BQE one)...and kinda gave up on a rant and just typed... DJI is just the best image quality...and range...at the moment, but I hear you.

I'm still curious about some old walksnail gear, but those new goggles are big fat no at the moment.

There are also rumors about Orqa working on some digital gear, but I wouldn't good me breath

Stopped using Caddx/Walksnail completely now. Had two VTXs go tits up when flashing them with the 500th firmware update within a year. So, eff those dipshits.

Thanks for the comments, I take my time now. I like them to look as good as they fly, which is awesome.

And DJI and HDZ (now that they are in the same form factor) are all I use. Well, unless I want to hear the props, then I fly my analogs.

One day we will have audio on digital.

Rotorenpilot   10 days ago 

Oh, that's good to know. This makes it easier to cross that off my list of "things I want because people say they are cool". I've had a feeling the system is not mature enough yet. I'll save my money and try to get HDZero.

I also still like rocking some analog with a decent action cam.

Walksnail has been getting a lot of hype and I'm generally suspicious of hype...but then again... it's FPV --> easy to get carried away and do a cookie monster "me want ALL THE THINGS" 😁

Pennywise   2 days ago 

The hype is suspicious as they are not very good at making equipment. They are version 2 of the goggles, and they just launched less than a year ago!!!!!!!

IntoFPV has way too many people saying it like it is for Walksnail: they suck!

HDZ at least has made some actual improvements, but it's still nowhere close to DJI O3. Nowhere. People like to compare them, but I don't think they've flown O3 to say HDZ is even comparable, because it isn't.

But, I still use my analogs every now and then...

How do you like the pair-o-whips' antenna setup on the 03? I have been considering it on my 3.5"

SlightlyScratchedCorolla   3 days ago 

Way better than the stock on 3.5", lighter, much more durable, range is fine for micros.

Hello! I going to make similar drone on same frame. Now I have hard choose between t-motors 1404 and 1604 for 3520 props. What do you think about this chose? And I am not so faster pilot))

RedFrog   6 days ago 

I really like the extra power of the 1604 - but weight is really tight if you want to stay below 250g. If you like freestyle/acrobatics, I would stick with the 1604 - and also consider using the new Lite VTX from Walksnail - same as the nano but without the case to save 7g.

jares13   6 days ago 

I'm not chasing 250g. I planning use some more size battery and be in 300g. But yes, I think 1604 will be better) And I can limit throttle if I will understand 1604 has alot of power)) Thank you!

wow, dude!! this is incredible! I've been going over ideas like this in my head ever since I started building Fractals. I don't have the tools or space, but it seems like you've addressed everything about the fractal that I don't love. if there's any way to get a couple shipped to Canada, please let me know! happy to support this project. email: maxpower_421@hotmail.com thanks dude, and good luck! 👍🏻

Rice_Bowl   12 days ago 

I've wanted the fractal for such a long time but I agree I had some concerns that made me hesitate on getting one (canopy, flight controller mounting, and shipping costs). Slowly getting myself to have a proper CNC so I took the chance. I will me emailing CNC Madness after the weekend! and from what I know they ship in the US and Canada! I may just not get a cut from it to reduce costs

awesome, man!! sorry i just found this notification in my junk folder. that'd be perfect, as i live only one province away from cncmadness and i actually order from them regularly.
see how it would work out for you, and if you need me to send you a few bucks to make it worth your time, im happy to compensate you for your design and time.
the fractal has a lot good going for it. i actually like the way the fc mounts, and ive found it to offer waaay better protection than with a typical whoop, and since I also regularly fly 5", I also like that the camera is at the same level and out front of the motors.
where I find it falls short, is the battery mount. I wish it went toilet tank because you get a massive pendulum action that makes it very difficult to accurately negotiate tight cornering and freestyle roll maneuvers. i tried it for racing, but ended up flying the Newbeedrone cockroach v3 with a carbon brace. it's very good, but I love the look of yours and it'd like to experiment.
shoot me an email with the info, if you don't mind! cheers dude, have a great week! 😁
