I asked you what were the best sub250g bind and fly freestyle fpv drones and then bought them based on your comments... and then I spent the last 4 months testing these and this is what I think.
Weirdly the one I was looking forward to most... was disappointing and the one I was looking forward to the least, was incredible...

@TorontoFPV 4 месяца назад

The Great Discus is the best. I designed it to be the crux35 replacement frame. I'm working on an o3 version but it will be naked. the moment you try a discus you will never want to fly anything else.

@TorontoFPV I’ll take a look… love your videos as well!

@@GarethDix thanks bud I obsess over sub250 category. The crux35 with battery on top is even better.

If you think that's interesting and you'd like to do one with me, let me know and we'll figure out how to time and we can spend an hour and talk about FPV or maybe even a bit longer

I have a Smart 35 HD. I replaced the AIO F4 FC after a crash with an AIO F7 FC and it has now a flight time of over 9 minutes with a 4s 850 Mah pack. I love it, the only downside I see is the hardmounted camera. I just finished building an AOS 3.5 V5 O3 with 1604 T-motor and F7 AIO FC/Crossfire receiver which weighs 252 grams with a GNB 4s 650 Mah pack (179 dry weight). Did have to do some weight reduction to achieve this weight. With a softmount camera I must say that I like it even more then the Smart 35. No props in view and fast. I purchased the parts through Aliexpress (Except the O3) and it all cost me a little over €400 total.

@GarethDix 2 месяца назад

I love my 3inch build which comes to around 180g dry weight it’s the closest I have to something Sub250g that feels like a 5inch… I’m building a 3.5inch version at the moment but I was going to use the same T-mount mini stack. What AIO are you using in the AOS?

@kurtzFPV 4 месяца назад

I bought two crux35 hds when they first came out. I have converted both to top batteries and have put an 03 in one of them, but had to drop to 3" props because of the tpu mount I used for the 03. I used double sided tape to secure the air unit to the top frame and it has held strong for months now. I love how it flies as well, but the props are barely in view. 145.6g dry weight, inncluding gps and a 5g standalone vifly beeper, so it can just carry an 850 and stay sub 250, though I usually fly with 650hvs. The newer bottom plates are more durable than the originals and the occasional swap out is not too much trouble. Nice reviews man!

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

How does it fly with the top mounted everything in comparison to the original? I figured I could mount the camera above as well but I fly with quite a low camera angle so wasn’t sure if that upset the balance that made it so great

@kurtzFPV 4 месяца назад

@@GarethDix It could be my imagination, but to me it flings and feels more like a mini 5" with the top mounted battery, and still feels nicely balanced. I fly with a pretty low camera angle too.

I think that this topic is very popular now and the video will be useful to people who are looking for such a solution. Mine Quadmula F3 is fat, I think now its a little more than 250

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

Yeah this class of quad is starting to get really interesting so I hope it helps people in the future. And although these are surprisingly good and perfect for people that don’t want to build their own, I would still take my F3 build over them, I’m building an F35 at the moment so let’s see how different it feels. That said I do like to throw the crux35 around a lot too!

@Dorff_Meister 4 месяца назад

I love my Crux35 HD with Vista. I agree, it's not necessarily a beginner quad. It's fast and kind of breakable, but buy extra motors and some extra bottom plates and have fun. I agree, it's helped make me a better pilot. It's a great park free-styler. Lately I've been flying my self-built Bee35Pro frame mostly, but I need to take my Crux35 out this week!

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

If it was more durable it would probably be the ultimate beginner quad… but yes bottom plate and motors are a necessity just in case

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

Nice… I was thinking about putting some 1604 motors on it to see what happens 😂

@William_NS 4 месяца назад

The 1604's from T-Motor are fantastic! My only gripe is those stupid t-mount props. I recently built a Siren F35 Split and put the T-Motor 1804s with the 5mm shaft on it! They are awesome! I can carry my standard 1300mah 6s packs on it and those motors with the Skystars 55a esc handle the extra weight no problem! It's way over 250g though, even with the 650mah 6s packs I normally fly on the F3 split. P. S. My F3 split is now an F35 Split as well!

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

@William_NS the t-Mount is the most painful thing on my Sub250g builds, on my Grinderino I have the 1804s but not enough weight budget left to go with the 5mm shaft 😫

@doraymon4797 21 день назад

Thanks for your great content. A question: why would you invest the money for an O3 and have the props in the view field of the camera?!

@GarethDix 21 день назад

It’s a good question… as I got into the hobby wanting to do cinematic flying so the props were a just weird. But for freestyle the props help with a reference point whilst I’m flying… the O3 in the goggles makes the whole feeling more immersive in comparison the older vista system. But if I wanted to film scenery I would probably use a dead cat style frame or something like the EMAX babyhawk or Djinn25 where the props are out of view

@RafalGalinski_drony 4 месяца назад

AOS 3.5 O3 with 550 mAh 4S R-Line Tattu seems the ultimate choice. The CRSF version of the quad weight is around 175 g and the lipo pack: 60g

@@GarethDix I have either TBS Nano VTX or Rush Tank Tiny. Both of them work nicely already with stock dipole antenna. If you have decent VRX on the goggles with decent antennas you are fine for reasonable distances and penetration.

@Ryan.Rivera 4 месяца назад

Greetings from Tennessee!! I’m planning my first build, sub 250 siren F3 (how I found your channel) how does yours compare to these BNFs? I know it will cost more to build but I want the experience and also the ability to replace parts as needed. Love the price of those BNFs though

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

Honestly there’s no comparison, the F3 rips like a mofo and can take a beating… it’s still my favourite quad. However I’m building an F35 now as the extra thrust from the 3.5inch props should make it even better! You’ll love the F3 though it’s worth the extra money and build time over the BNFs I actually think flying the F3 so much is what made me feel like something was missing from the smart35.

In the end I order most of my parts from Aliexpress, and it ended up quite cheap. I'm currently finishing my BF setup and can't wait to try it out when I will get my batteries. Thanks again for the tips ! Also I was wondering, now that you tried different sub 250 quads, is the Siren still your favorite ?

@GarethDix 4 месяца назад

Awesome! Glad you got the parts, on my F3 in BF I think I used a superfly preset tune with my rates and it flies great. Even after flying all of these the F3 is still my favourite it’s just aggressive and has so much punch in comparison. I’ve only managed to fly my Grinderino build a little but does feel really good as well.

It’s weird as there just aren’t as many walksnail BNF’s in this class. The 3 I reviewed here don’t seem to come with it as a BNF but they do have analog and HDZero versions. The walksnail VTX is appearing in a lot of whoops at the moment and some 5inch freestyle so it won’t be long before they’re offered in more 3-3.5inch quads. Lots of people are building Sub250g 3.5inch quads with walksnail though so it’s definitely favoured by builders. I currently have goggles for DJI, analog and HDZero but with the new moonlight kit I might have to get the walksnail module for my HDZero goggles and give it a go.

Is the Emax Babyhawk O3 on ELRS? Your RSSI values looked horrible for how close you where in the field.

You can a change the antenna and push it forward or to the back quite easily. I think the flight in the field was one of my first flights with the ELRS module… and that was running at about 25mw… a bit later I figured out how to change that so I haven’t had any issues at 250mw.
