Getting Started with Shark Byte:
- Any FPV goggles or display with HDMI input. I have Fat Shark HDO2.
- FatShark Shark Byte RX5.1 Receiver Module: bit.ly/3acLQ9O
- Two SMA antennas of your choice to go on top of the RX. They should be RHCP to match the patch antennas that are built-in.
Parts I Recommend (not exactly what I used):
- Shark Byte TX5S.1 single board digital VTX: bit.ly/2PW8eNR
- Runcam Nano HD Camera: bit.ly/3e1GgIp
or Foxeer Digisight V2 (I have not used it, but it is another option): bit.ly/32iNcLD
- 55mm MIPI Cable (shorter than the one that comes with the camera): bit.ly/3uR8Rqv
- FPVCycle Babytooth 3" Frame (2mm thick version): bit.ly/2Q3zEBi
- FPVCycle 13mm 7700KV Motors (if you can find them in stock): bit.ly/2XWcOvQ
OR Happymodel 1202.5 6400KV Motors (what I used here): bit.ly/3wZFdkG
OR other motor with similar size and KV.
- BetaFPV 12A F405 Whoop AIO. It is light and has good features. It also has motor plugs, which you could use or remove: bit.ly/3acAjr5
OR BetaFPV 20A F405 Toothpick AIO for an even easier and more robust build: bit.ly/3mPbiqR
- Gemfan 3018 2-blade props (1.5mm shaft or 2mm shaft depending on your motors): bit.ly/2T9KkNW
or Gemfan 3016 3-blade props (these fly smoother, but they have less power for pulling out of dives): bit.ly/36REC7a
- RHCP Singularity Antenna with U.FL (I recommend not using the "short" one. It is harder to get a good antenna placement): bit.ly/3uMgi2e
- Crossfire Nano Receiver (or receiver of your choice): bit.ly/3mO7ZAa
- Crossfire Minimoral T V2 Antenna (or whatever goes with your receiver): bit.ly/3dhfmx0
- Velcro Cable Ties for battery strap: www.amazon.com/dp/B001E1Y5O6
- Cloth Tape: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...
- M2 x 4mm motor screws (titanium or steel)
- M2 x 15mm stack screws (titanium or steel)
- Thin foam battery pad helps it stay put:
Flight Times:
The main flight in this video used a GNB 300mah 80C 2S Battery. When flying fast hard freestyle like this I typically get:
- 300mAh 2S = 3 minutes
- 450mAh 2S = 4-5 minutes
- 550mAh 2S = 5 minutes+
