You mean a DJI O3 naked 😃 you don’t need Flywoo expensive kit. There are STL over there

@dustinpugh8222 9 месяцев назад

I've wondered the same thing!

@tomsop 9 месяцев назад

The problem is flywoo envisioned a frame to allow the naked to sit so prop flow would cool it - I want to make sure to get a frame optimized for that cooling feature before I get the naked.

@KOrnhOliO1 9 месяцев назад

Same as these two mention here... You just can't make an 80ish mm quad any lighter than these two. Then, you add the heavy 03 to it and it is what it is - a flying barge, bloated cow, or Big Mac devouring T-rump! LOL 😮😢 This size, in all reality, is too small to really carry such a heavy VTX & camera. Sure, they did it, but both are fragile and top heavy and over weight. A compromise. But, people will buy them, smash the F out of them, and rebuild ... It's what FPV is! 😜 It doesn't mean these will ever really fly good. 🤷💯

A bit of hotglue or silicone sealant (RTV) at the base of the ELRS antenna to "strain relieve" it a bit, helps to protect it without adding much weight

@dakzer55 9 месяцев назад

Nice review Joshua. I am not sure why there are not many reviews of the mobula8 with full sized Walksnail VTX mounted using the same DJI O3 mount. I have done it, and added beeper, and it is still probably 20g lighter than the one you reviewed. The extra canopy space serves well to protect Walksnail VTX and camera against crashes, and enough room to add a ViFly ultra bright led, and still lighter than the DJI O3 version. Also saves $200 on VTX. Mobula8 is fast and probably best weight/power ratio to fly outside without being blown about by wind when flying cinematic style.

@piefpv3233 9 месяцев назад

for boards with those copper wire antennas. I try to run it to one of the board screws, sandwiched in between the gummies from the FC and VTX like HDzero. I know it might not be the best for range but I only do this for whoops and other small stuff where I'm not flying far anyways.

@jbaked2585 2 месяца назад

What a save!

@rook4830 9 месяцев назад

Looks great. I do prefer the HDzero or walksnail one as they are both nearly half the weight of the DJI mobula8. But nothing beats the DJI quality.

@cowfangirl420 9 месяцев назад

I honestly fully agree with happy model making solid FCs nowadays at least when it comes to AiO. i’ve had like 4-5 over the last two years and the newer ones seem to really outlast earlier ones durability wise. that said i use them on fairly light analog whoop builds so i can’t speak to how well they’ll handle the weight of a digital vtx over an extended period. i wouldn’t be shocked if the ESCs wear out a lot sooner

@gerald1753 5 месяцев назад

@Tphive 9 месяцев назад

Really great video, as usual. I'm having a hard time deciding between the Mobula8 and the Pavo Pico. How's the noise of this one compare? And would a larger battery (850mah) be viable for either of them for longer flight times? Durability is what's making the Mobula8 attractive. Noise level, vibration dampening, and props not-in-view are what make the Pico attractive. Appreciate any feedback on this dilemma. I'm looking for something unintimidating and reliable, only considering the O3 versions.

@MCsCreations 9 месяцев назад

Amazing flying and review, Joshua! Pretty nice footage! 😃 I don't remember seeing solar panels on your roof before... How long did you put it? They're going to install 10 sheets (boards?) here in about a month. Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

@aphinion 9 месяцев назад

As long as you set it to fully manual and use 10bit colors with a bit of corrective grading, the O3 performs really well and delivers strong video. Auto exposure and it's overcontrasty bias is just horrible. It's a bit of pain, but a pain worth it for having sub 250g quads recording 4k120 on an SD-Card. I did some amazing shots with my new Tiny Trainer O3 and AOS Cine25 without having to deal with strong regulations. Love it. For freestyling and fun I'll stick to my low-latency feeds, but for delivering footage... the O3 is a perfect little tool. I hope we get the Air3 Sensor in the O4 :)

@willbrown8928 9 месяцев назад

Hey @JoshuaBardwell the 12A AIO does in fact have issues burning. The test unit I sent you did in fact smoke itself but BetaFPV sent a replacement. The new Pico has a 20A AIO but they did not send it as a replacement. Make sure you get the newer version if considering the Pico.

thanks for repetitive telling us about the arm angle! Yesterday i flew my cinebot the first time. i flew over a pretty dence forest and i wanted to know if my gf could see me better, when i turn off the blue light :D i accidently disarmed my quad instead of turning the lights off.. :D i fell down armed (nothing happened because i didnt moved my sticks) disarmed and armed again and saved my quad. during the fall i new exactly that i watched ur video and that i turned the max arm angle to 180 degrees. thank u so much!!

@seb-depp 9 месяцев назад

Great review - nice little bird if I needed another ;-)... Never understood why Betaflight couldn't implement a "save your configuration/translate it to the new firmware/reinstall the configuration" method.

@Ballantin 9 месяцев назад

I think this quad is great for just leisure flying either indoors or outdoor, but for cinematic shots I would rather go with the Cinelog20. Same O3 Air unit, 2 inch props, but much more durable, better frame and 4s batteries. Still a great review, thank you JB :)

@BooFPV 9 месяцев назад

I'm with you on that, but i fly the CineOn C20 V2.. even more durable.

@AkiroLyall 7 месяцев назад

I added hot glue to the base of that RX wire after my first one came with it broken off before it even was taken out of the box. I also then run it turning around the rubber column and under the bridge frame. I put another dab of hot glue holding to to frame and then pinched the end up verticle in front of the frame bridge. I also added 4 little hot glue feet mounds to the frame the batter sits in. Makes landing it not damage the frame or batter and if your hot glue feet wear down you can scrape the worn foot off with fingernail and replace with another.

@anthony-friskettiphoto1008 9 месяцев назад

Slightly off-topic question, but that plug that goes from the 03 air unit where the harness attaches to the board. What would I do if I broke one of those off the board? Do I need to solder all of those little Pinz back on? Can I use electrical conductive glue? Or can the plastic harness itself just be glued down and is that enough to make contact with the Pins?

@Rujaan85 Месяц назад

@Joshua Bardwell I was assisting someone with setting this up. The USB wasn't detected on the computer to convert to a COM port. I believe the issue may be that the USB cable lacks data transfer capability. The impulseRC_driver wasn't detected by the flight controller. I think I need to buy a USB-mini cable with data capability. Let me know if there's anything else that needs to be looked into.

BetaFPV Mobula 7 ??

@Photonees 9 месяцев назад

The Cinelog20 O3 is also 2 inch and +4min flighttime is realistic, i use 750mah and also 660mah HV, almost not difference in flighttime, if you want longer flight, think the CL20 is a better option.

@josiahmos217 9 месяцев назад

Buy this or the Pavo Pico (34g) but get the Flywoo Naked O3 Ultra Air unit (18g). (The Pavo Pico gets reduced from 71g to 53g).

I have the HDZERO version and it rips! On thing tho. The model match on mine would not update on the FC when I turned it on and off at the radio, whether the quad was powered or not. There is a model match check box on a tab under the ELRS page that pops up when you have your quad in wifi mode. I learned that from one of the guys on the ELRS discord.

@mhe0815 9 месяцев назад

Now this would probably fly quite a bit better and longer if you modify the O3 AU with the flywoo naked kit for it. Maybe worth a test?

@KOrnhOliO1 9 месяцев назад

It's already so fragile, making the 03 naked will surely cause some people to really bust this up, costing lots of money to repair! Nah, I'd rather have the huge weight savings of the Naked Vista! It will still give us crystal clear flying, great range, awesome penetration, but save a ton of weight! I could care less about the 4K video I'd take just to clog up my hard drive, never viewing it again. Lol Waste of time for me. This would fly sooooo much better at around 55g vs 80 it's at now. We'd get great flight times outta that same lipo JB barely got 2 minutes from. Sometimes we just need to face facts. This is really, truly, too small of a craft to carry such a heavy VTX. Sure, they did it, but that doesn't mean it's great ... It's just Yeh! Shaving off approx. 25 grams could definitely make it great! And, we don't lose much! 🤔🧐👍

JB NEEDS A NEW 03 FOR HIS ULTIMATE JB FREESTYLE BUILD. A whole 15 seconds longer. Took the top of that battery.. higher kv.

@bigsmokerc 9 месяцев назад

I love mine. Just made a little edit with it ;) Flies great for its size and weight - not a freestyle machine.. Doesn't stress people out. I use the red GNB 550 HV batteries, which fit perfect. 3.5 minutes of lively flight. I didnt need to, but I put Betaflight 4.4 on, no problem. Grabbed the CLI dump from the Happymodel site and it copied over fine. I use the flywoo ND filter set (cheapest to be found), which included a clear filter so the lens is always protected. Need to replace the o3 antennas with micro vees. Its really hard to keep them out of the props, even with a cable tie stand-off and the micro vees are tougher. With Bluejay you can make the motors beep a little louder - but dont go crazy, 10% extra is fine. Waiting on some 5 blade props (gemfan d51) to make it even quieter.
