Hi

30 years of youtube later, found a good build by UAV features. It looks good. Vid: part 2:

Also, about that FT quad I linked, you can also buy the frame (derlin, carbon fiber) from them by itself.

TBH, this whole antenna subject should get it's own category here, or at least a thread. I didn't know how much was under the hood till now.

I found this, anyone familiar with flight test? https://store.flitetest.com/power-pack-g-with-flite-test-gremlin-frame/ looks like you can pick your receiver, frame, and battery. Would it be good, or underpowered?

@Spork Nice find Going to look at it, but ya, if anyone knows some more recent parts, because I'm planning to get competitive. EDIT: Also, I'm planning to follow these guides for making antennas: https://rcexplorer.se/projects/2011/08/the-cloverleaf-fpv-antenna/...

So...... anyone want to put forward a good, larger (250 size? IDK), fast build?

If you multiply the c rating to the amp hour rating you get the amps that your battery can output. mAh is milliamp hour, so if you divide 380 by 1,000 you get the Ah. Thats 0.380 Ah. now if you multiply that by 25(C) you get 9.5 amps. That's the max output when you fly your quad. now thats not...

And no, I haven't bought anything yet.

It's okay, I enjoy a good conversation @Spork As for build size, @Gyro Doctor , what kind of build do you then suggest? Also, I have an Teleporter V5 :confused:. Not the best, planning to upgrade. (sticking to 5.8 for now. Also planning to get a HAM radio licence )

I have spare XT60 laying around so going to use those

Oops, critical miss read. Thought the new motors were more powerful. :oops:So going back to the old list. frame : www.flexrc.com/product/pico-x-silver-frame/ $22.5 FC/RX/ESC:https://www.racedayquads.com/collec...ler-osd-38a-blheli_s-esc-25-100-200-350mw-vtx AIO...

I've decided to modify the list now, mainly do to my inability to decide :rolleyes:. I'm also packing in a few tools, feel free to comment if I need to change anything, I'm missing something (prefer to be on the safe side, so if in doubt, please comment anyways), or you know something I don't...

Thanks all. :) Will be ordering the parts soon. Perhaps ill log the build on here as well. Last question, will this have any chance in a race with other quads this size? I also have a chisel tip soldering iron: Should i get a smaller tip?

So, do you guys thing this quad would grow with me. As in, could I get competitive if I slap on a 4s? And is my camera compatible with the FC?
