Step by step guide showing you how to build a 115MPH+ racing drone for around $170. This build is SIMPLE, GOOD VALUE and most of all results in a crazy fast FPV racing quadcopter with awesome performance.
P.I.D TUNING – Also this quad is doesn’t need such hard error correcting and aggressive PIDS. Here is some much smoother PIDS – https://imgur.com/a/kIuhx we will also cover this in part to but this should help in the mean time.
PARTS – things usually sell out after I make videos on them so I linked a ton of extra components below that people can use if something sells out.

OMG. that is about $1 per KM. Also make sure to change the pids linked in the description
But if you get a heavier frame won't it affect speed?
how to connect the transmitter
How can i get my drone sound like a really noisy bee ?
Why do you install the battery so it touches the ground?
How fast does the 4s go?
I bought a micro swift camera but that dosent fit with this frame is there any tipe of mount pls help!!!! Also the stand offs that come with the fc and the frame are to small so I had to buy new new ones same thing goes for the motors the 6mm arm is to thick for the screws they come with. Why didnt you mention this in the video?
Thanks for the video. I am a beginner and I don't know anything. So this video is going to be my blueprint. Keep the good work . I usually don't subscribe but I like your channel and everyone that helps in the process. Thanks from a FNG
I build a better one with an other frame huge thanks
will the 4s version's ECU/FC combo work with a TBS Unify Pro 800mW VTx
Ayyy, nice t shirt
I just realized your using a disposable chopstick to point out the parts
Hello.
I bought one of the cameras that you suggested in the description which was the Caddx Turbo S1. The camera, unfortunately, did not fit into the frame which made me unable to fly fpv on my first racing quad build.
How long does the battery last on each one? thanks. New to FPV Drones.
i wonder all the time …. waht is the difference between a foreign one and a none foreign ESC … can anybody tell somthing about it , please ? thank you
Would this drone work well for freestyle?
Can you please do an updated version?
Do you have to buy four motors or do they come in a pack of four??
the discord link isnt working
Any good websites to buy all of this stuff from in India?
i am gonna put some 6s motors on it and use it for 6s
how is it now isn't the fc outdated because i just want a second race drone for crismass
How much can this hold . Im new love ur videos. Could it hold a 166 grams battery 4s. 4s that is
I have a 370 dollar budget what can i get
could you do a updated version please?
Is this build way better than the eachine wizard x220?
How long is fly time?
I know I might seem stupid but how do I connect a fatshark goggles?
I got the matek VTX you recommended, but I have no idea how to solder it up. any help ?
I tried the eachine vtx03, but 2 of them broke relatively soon so i'd like to try something more robust, like this matek. can anyone help ?
Please answer my one question that is how much of kv motors u used in 4S version ?
Do an update of this vid
Thank you

what size of battery. like 1500mah
Hey Stu – bought the blade torrent as my first drone – flew it and it was great. Then wanted something stronger after doing some sim / seeing some vids. Came across your original 99$ vids, then this 100mph one. After previewing the vids, as well as your part 2 about binding to controller/setting up betaflight, I decided to buy all the stuff. Never soldered in my life. My brothers and I did some sim and it took us a couple days to build it, but it's been a blast! Thanks! And any time something happens, the fix is a coupe minutes. These things are SUPER durable. Keep it up!
Hey I just starting watching your channel and I really like what you do I have got tons of good info from you about these drones and I really want to get into this I have a few basic quadcopters but the reason I was commenting was to see what you thought about tricopters as fpv racers and wanted to know if you have reviewed any or if you recommend any
I can't wait till pay day…I didn't think i'd like to fly or even build a drone but you got me wanting to do both!!!! I really wouldn't mind winning one…Lmao!!! I'll have to check about remotes to use cuz i'm confused about the remote controls….I want a 110MPH drone!!!! sniffle sniffle
Where i can buy the controller
Please help! When i try to take off the quad spins out of control and the throttle wont respond anymore. It only happens when using the transmitter but not with the betaflight motor checking… I have everything tuned and set but it just doesnt work…
my motors came with screws for 4mm frame – where did you get longer screws for the 6mm frame?
