Managed to get my HDZero 65mm build down to 19.59 grams thanks to your canopy, appreciate everything you have done for world of light whoops.

@MrShutterBug 11 месяцев назад

Awesome! That’s lighter than many analog whoops on the market. Have fun!

@harshlalwani4311 Месяц назад

@izemanevobike Год назад

A great way to remove motor connectors is to plug a motor plug into it, then heat the back and pull the wires.

@vladislavmenshikov6381 Год назад

Cool build, by the way, you can save some extra weight by: 1. Ripping stickers of the battery, it gives another 0,3-0,5 grams, depending on a manufacturer. Which is quiet the same with replacing motor screws to renu 2. Replace canopy with my custom PET-canopy, made out of used PET bottle. It weights about 0,3 grams and gives mutch better protection than flex printed canopy. And also costs 0$. Let me know if you are interested, I can share the drawing, so you can build your own PET-conopy. (You may need to adjust it a bit to fit your camera, my is designed for runcam nano3 )

@AnthonyCowley Год назад

What a great build, thank you for sharing in such detail! I’m also kind of blown away by those dives from the tree tops: pretty much straight down, and no yaw washout! Early reviews of the Mobula 6 HDZero have looked slightly underpowered, but your build seems to perform really well. My favorite flier these days is a 75mm 2s with DJI, but dives require very fine care to avoid coming down into dirty air or leveling out too late. Once again, great build!

@Imakilln Год назад

Great build video! Looking forward to building myself one of these once the HD Zero goggles are out! Little PSA for anyone watching this - For soldering stuff like this get yourself a PCB holder tool with alligator clips and put something non conductive on the jaws (I used some silicone RC fuel tubing) This way you can hold stuff with it powered on and protects the PCB from damage by jaws. Also when desoldering small connectors / pins etc don't apply force while heating the solder up, wait until they become loose then pull it out as otherwise you risk detaching the copper pads/traces from the connector side of the board (while the solder may have melted on the iron side it may still be solid on the connector side).

@ericcoker8784 Год назад

I am new to the hobby. The first kit was the Geprc Tinygo 4k. After learning how to only calibrate the gyro and trim with the sticks, my flight has improved. Then came the Zorro with the Mobula6, what a learning experience on settings with both the controller and BetaFlight. Also the Meteor65 lite...video could be better, but it has earned a special place in my heart for durability. NOW the moblite7!!!! Awesome flight times and handles the best.... Your video has everything! I got excited to see soldering skills on such a small board. Kinda reminds me of the Moblite7. Anywho, you are doing next level stuff.

@breakflight Год назад

To remove connectors, I often clamp my forceps on the connector and then hold the board up in the air and let gravity gently pull the connector and forceps off the board when I wet the solder.

@MrShutterBug Год назад

Good suggestion. I do the same thing on the edge of my bench normally, but it would have been hard to film that way.

You can also remove the connector first by squishing the tweezers between te connector and the board, and then remove the pins one by one

which 75mm Frame and props would you use. Im interested trying the same build on the slightly bigger platform. Always excellent content, so many thanks!

@MrShutterBug Год назад

I haven’t build a 75mm with HDZero so I’m not sure which frames have enough room to mount the FC on the bottom like I did in this video. The Mobula7 frame has tall pegs for the FC, so you could probably stack the vtx on top of the FC. Take a look at how they did it for the Mobula7 HDZero 2S BNF. For best efficiency I would go with 40mm 2-blade props and keep everything as light as you can. Good luck!

Impressive build Nate! Really want hdzero but I only have dominator v3 and not sure if it will look better on my eyes with it ... lol This betafpv f4 aio is great and I'm using on my custom build M7 and buzz+ pad actually provide 5v with propper current to power on runcam thumb. Last thing ... it's a bit unfortunate that OSD chip is still stay with the same chip tech and size for a long time, looks odd in happymodel diamond F4 aio 5in1 tho 😅

@MrShutterBug Год назад

I used Betaflight 4.3 for this build, and I did not do any special tuning other than my usual tweaks, which include increasing Feed Forward for acro or increasing Angle Strength for angle mode. For angle I also add around 13 degrees of "FPV Angle Mix", which seems to help the angle mode algorithm dig into the corners a little better.

I enjoy all your builds I have HDZero already, so I'll try this build out. Where did you get the ELRS antenna replacement? Also what did you use the strap on the VTX antenna there, just black tape?

@MrShutterBug Год назад

For this build, I replaced the ELRS antenna because it would have bumped into the vtx. I used a 2.4GHz antenna that I removed from a dead whoop FC, but any tiny wire will work as long as it is cut the the right length. For the VTX antenna, I used a bit of black cloth tape to keep it secure.

@jeremyluke2076 Год назад

Another great video Nate. When using the Meteor 65 Pro Frame, could you use the 35mm propellers that come stock on that?

@MrShutterBug Год назад

Hi. I haven't tried HDZero on the Meteor65 Pro frame. The larger props could give it better performance, but they would not be allowed at the 65mm Whoop races that I go to. Also the Pro frame has less room in the middle, so the HDZero VTX would not fit there. You would have to stack the VTX above the flight controller like they did in the Mobula 6 HDZero. It's probably possible with the right mounting hardware. Have you tried it?

Sorry for the super late response. I missed this comment before. I've used both props and they both work fine. One thing I appreciate about the HQ props is that they seem to be more durable, or at least you can tell when they are bent. With they Gemfan prop, it can be hard to see when you have a bent prop because they always have a kind-of bent shape. That's a minor thing though. Both props work great.

@MrShutterBug Год назад

I power the vtx from vbat. The 5v line on the FC would work too, but those 5v regulators are a common source of failure in FCs, so I didn’t want to put any more load on the FC than necessary. Yes, it is possible to loose video with low voltage, but only when the voltage is really low. I think it drops at around 2.8 or 2.9 volts, but you should land before that to save your lipo batteries.

@Blizofoz45 Год назад

Can the HDzero vtx and camera combo just be wired to a battery instead of to a FC? I got into FPV because of AIO FPV cameras that I could stick on anything I wanted; toy quads, umx airplanes, etc.

@MrShutterBug Год назад

Yes, you can simply power the VTX and it will power the camera. Some features require communication with an FC, but they are not strictly necessary. For example, I believe you need a FC in order to use the low power protection mode (25mW until you arm), or to change camera & vtx settings using your radio. That might be a problem on the new 1S VTX, but all the other VTXs have a port for a remote control which can be used to access those settings without an FC. Now, the ExpressLRS team added ELRS backpack support for the VRX (receiver module). They might do something similar for the VTX, if they haven't already. If so, that would let you do everything without an FC (except for the betaflight OSD of course).

Can I bind a Spectrum Dx8e controller to this ??

@MrShutterBug 10 месяцев назад

My build uses ExpressLRS, but you could use Spectrum if you buy a flight controller with a built in spectrum receiver. You could also buy a flight controller with to receiver, so that you can add an external receiver, but that would add weight. I recommend using an FC that has it built in if you can find one.

hi, may i know what esc setting are you using? i having the same aio, but the motor sometimes are struggler to spin. and flight time just less than 30 sec. Motor im using T-motor 0802 22000kv and using 3 blade 40mm prop. Thanks for you advice!

For this drone, I'm using BLHeli_M with 48kHz PWM and a startup power of 1.0. If your motors don't start spinning reliably when you arm then: 1) Spin them with your finger and double check that they all spin easily (not catching on anything) and 2) Try increasing the startup power in the ECS settings. If you have to push it all the way to 1.5, that's OK for an 0802 motor. Having a flight time less than 30 seconds is not good though. There may be something wrong with the motors or the battery.

@@MrShutterBug hi. thanks for you reply. as for now solve the motor stall issue. as for the 30 second flight time was cause by the vibration. any advice to reduce noise? as for esc setting and also betaflight setting. Thank you
