What's the total estimated cost on a build like this? Also what is the capability of this vs a DJI Mavic Pro (aside from crash avoidance tech)? I love DIY hobbies and I have been on the sideline for a couple of years with the drone hobby. Is this something that helps you stay of federal registration or does EVRRYONE register with local and federal aviation registration authorities? Sorry for all of the questions as I said I'm on the sideline and I'm looking at joining in the future.

@ianmurphy4402 3 жыл бұрын

Total cost of all the links in the description is $408, without the $40 soldering iron and $22 silicone pad it’s only $346, you can find way cheaper soldering irons. This is a great cheap build I’m looking forward to getting the parts in the mail

8:45 - Feel free to use soldering flux. Its quality will increase. I know that this solder contains rosin, but this is not always enough. Personally, I really like the paste-like flux for soldering SMD components.

I have a love-hate relationship with the VTX you used. When they are good, they're good. But when they're hot , they're bad. Lots of snow when hot. Make sure you have good ventilation in-flight as well as while messing with it in non-flight. Had 2 burnout already. Arghh!!

Thanks for these videos. I'm building my first drone and I find them very informative. Just a soldering tip. If you use a damp sponge and wipe the tip clean regularly, it will be nice and "tinned" as it's called and will give you better control of your solder points.

Pro-tip; get some high current 18350's, stack 2 on top of each other (with something insulating inbetween) and wire as parallel. Bam, an extremely high current Lithium-Ion 18700 cell, just a tad longer than an 18650. Repeat for however many you need.

Great video (as always!) Maybe do an updated one for '21 with true long range (eg, with GPS), and maybe iNav? I'm looking to build such a machine myself. I'm older, don't care about flippy-floppy Freestyle and I sure don't race; I just want to fly around and see the sights. (And digital is too expensive; I have only analog gear.) I'd love to see what's recommended for a "long range cruiser" from someone that doesn't seem to be oversponsored...

I'll build my own maybe a few months down the line but I'm glad some people in this community are making educational content for the potatoes out there that don' t know the first thing about soldering or assembling a drone. Something even more helpful would be setting up this build in betaflight. Thanks!
