      This is a function of 743, 745 chip pricing. Only the F722 has not shot up like a rocket, but it has limited onboard memory, so can not run Ardupilot. F722 works good with INAV.

  • @swissfreek
    @swissfreek Рік тому +2

    The need to use GH connectors isn’t a huge deal to me, but depending on the device might add extra work to make the wiring compatible. I personally find soldering the pins kind of relaxing and I have a nice iron, and it is easier to customize the wiring. But it’s not a deal-breaker. Other than that, the only thing that’s missing that I’d have liked to see is the ability to turn the VTX power on and off. That said, at half to 1/3 the cost of other wing boards, and given everything that it includes (if you’ve not used the SpeedyBee app, my word, it’ll change your life), this looks like a tough one to beat.

    It's cheap but too large and heavy for the models i typically fly. I like the small connectors for UARTs. That makes sense and i hope other board manufacturers copy that idea because it only makes sense to use servo pin connectors for servos or similar high current devices that come with dupont connectors.

    Ordered this before price goes up once it gets noticed more.
    I wonder if this would fit my Flying fish and if the wiring with plugs for the Walksnail V2 vtx are included (could always solder to the vtx anyway).
    Time to start looking how to get the vtx and cam on the fuselage and not on top of the wing (in case of a crash, still a beginner ate fixed wings lol)
    These are great time for being in the hobby! It looks like we're going a leap forward again all around the hardware and firmware side of things!
    I hope they keep the price competitive so we keep getting these innovative products!

    Question: I do not have much space in my plane and the current spektrum bnf receiver is right smack in the middle of what little space I do have. I plan to remove the receiver and put this stack there. Any suggestions on where I should move the receiver to?
    I'll have enough room on either side of this stack to fit the skinny receiver flipped on its side. but itll be snug asainst the wall and it won't be in the center of the plane anymore.
    Will the As3x in my plane be overridden by the FC stability system?
    Will I have to find a way to disable it?
    And if so, does orientation matter at that point? I'd put it on the wall to give the fc some breathing room.

    • @Painless360

    On 3d printed airframe number 5. First 3 nosedived at full throttle right after takeoff, turns out elevons were reversed. Airframe number 4 went 40 ish feet Before I got confused as to whether moving my pitch stick up brings the nose up or not.
    I plan on trying inav with this fc. Hopefully it will allow me to have a “safe mode” for takeoff and landing.
    Could you make a video for ignoramuses such as myself explaining which way your control surfaces need to move and witch way you set up your pitch stitch in relation to the nose.
    Sorry if this is beneath you, I am sure there’s other videos out there explaining it, but your vids are not only informative (like so many others) but also entertaining.
    Do you have any videos explaining how to install an FC in an already completed fixed wing. Not so much explaining the soldering of pins and what not but more so getting into the nitty gritty of setting up inav from scratch, troubleshooting, big do and don’ts ect..
    Last question I promise…
    I have the ailerons both going into the same channel on my receiver. when I put a fc in it, does the fc need to be able to control them independently? I.e. be plugged into different outputs on the fc?

    Hello, you have made a great video. I bought the FC as a result. After 2 hours of operation and setup, there was a short circuit on the circuit board and the FC caught fire. I contacted Speedybee directly because I had also bought the FC there. They then decided that it was not a fault with the circuit board and that they could give me a 30% discount if I bought it again. I think something like that should also be mentioned in a video. A regular customer warranty is simply rejected here. Greetings Georg😮😫

    I soldered my first Speedy Bee Wing and thought that was really easy. Imagine my disappointment when it failed the inav receiver screen test on UART 2.(No response on any channel.) I spent a week asking questions and made no progress. I decided that I must have scrambled the flashing with some error in the ports page. Tested that theory by setting up a second unit with precisely the same result. Have asked all the usual qestions. Tested SBus polarity. Tested the Sbus link with a standard airframe (No F/C) AOK. Any thoughts ??? Radio is passing all telemetry and range tests. Weird !!! Sudden thought !!! What does the boot button do on the USB connector ???

    newbie question, when you say end of life does that mean production or they're no longer programmable/rendered useless? I have purchased both of these FC. a speedy bee F405 and a secondhand Matek F405 FC to put in some fixed wing's I have recently acquired.
    what do you think about these flight controllers for a beginner?

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  Рік тому

      A lot of the recent changes with flight controllers have been due to chip shortages. Flight control software like INAV, Betaflight and Ardupilot usually carry on support for 'retired' flight controller hardware for years and years so don't worry.. Happy flying!

    Good first try. But why soft mount middleboard and put connectors inbetween?!? All vibration stress will be on connectors. Iflight and dys did this back in the days and stopped becaus of issues... quads are more vibration prone yes but still. Should not be rubbergromets but hard mounting in-between boards or wire harness in-between them. (There is a reason there is wires and not connecors inbetween esc and fc on a quad)

    Appears it covers a wide range of ability. The one question i will pose before someone else may mention it what about Remote ID ? You know that nonsense the regulators are demanding come September of this year ?
    My understanding was manufacturers of aircraft were to have RID modules PRE-Installed to be able to sell in the U.S. for example . BUT I see no one doing it outside a few drone companies. I do not see plane manufacturers doing anything and here we see no Flight control board makers even mentioning it in their creations? Just curious
    Where and how would a RID module attach to a FC board in this case ? OR are these modules self contained and only need a power source? I assume it would have to have FC board attachment or it could not broadcast the info a FC board gives ? Any idea's ?
    Again just a curious thought.
