Wow! You just reminded me that I still have a Robocat in my shed somewhere. It was the first ever fpv and build. Having the battery on the inside was always a bit strange but I am sure it saved me many a battery and here in NZ they are still more expensive than the other things that get smash when you stack it into a fence post as full noise. I feel a retro rebuild coming on. Cheers
I've wanted to build that frame since I saw them when I first started! You got the like for the portal music on the intro, If they make a 3rd portal game they should put this guy in it. ok, now i'm watching... BRUUU you made it TALLER?!?!?!?!!? It is kinda wild that the batt goes in the middle. I get the idea of putting the heaviest part in the center, but the fpv gear in the aero cowling area only considers cooling, not crashing... on a racing drone. I guess they had high hopes that drone racing would be big-budget like pro car racing type stuff, eventually. The $230 03 air unit was many years down the road from that design... so I guess they didn't think about it like that. They were still destroying at least a $30-$50 analog vtx at the time... The crazy long aluminum standoffs holding the roof... oof. Talk about mom's spaghetti. I love it though, It looks so fast and cool. I would install crazy LED's in it. Think of the chase footage!!! Think of your friends!!!!!
This was cool .. we have a bunch of old quads .. wizard and I took all that old stuff pieced together a Armattan rooster frame .. updated all the software to current to what it would accept anyway … I’m kinda over whelmed by how good this thing flies .. what’s old is new again type thing.. I can see people at a price point now days looking for older complete analog quads to get flying for around what?? $125 lots of shit quads back then had to do with poor software and tunes … now that is crucial to the quad
thanks man, yeah I was quite pleasantly surprised on how well it ripped on 6s with "modern" hardware. Although if ya watch the flight again you can see the fc freaking out a bit because I was def pushing the stress limit of those arms XD
@@MrFadjule I aslo just revived a gecko. I’m digging these older quads now even with old hardware yet new software make all the difference.. IF the frame is sturdy that arris flaps in a breeze 😆
Instead of throwing money at throwback quadcopter frames maybe you should invest in a toothbrush and a bar of soap.
Ok
Don't hate on Spider. He's not the reason you haven't put out a video in 5 years.
To bad soap and a toothbrush aren’t going to fix your tiny dick energy.
@@D0cHollifake shut your mouth dipshit.
I actually always loved how this drone looks just way too heavy! But love the retro look
same it looks really cool
The Portal “Still Alive” music put me in the mood at the mood at the beginning!
the quad just screams portal to me lol

eyy fpv builds, slamin metal, and some great riips!, this is what fpv is all about!
cool to see this old style frame still flying🤘🤘🤘
I thought for sure the arms would break from 6s lol
@@spidersugar_fpv for real! watching that frame rip though a tree had my heart going, like aw shit! it liiiives!!
Hell ya! I have a couple vortex 250 pros we did exactly that to. Rockin the retros in Reno!
hell yeah sick!
I too started in 2019 with ARRIS HOBBIES with the camouflage blue quad that came with everything
haha I remember that one!
Haha the fairings look huge. Cool idea man!
its wild lookin huh lol
ROBKAT
I seriously even after correcting myself numerous times kept calling it the robcat XD
@@spidersugar_fpv I mean, now you know the name of your signature frame, right? 😊
Loved the music at the start and end haha. Good stuff dude
thanks yo
I love the whole idea of the restomod drone.
Hell yeah glad you liked homie!
The cake is a lie but the drone is alive. This is Apeture Science.
Lol
It's pretty rad. I honestly love that the battery goes inside. Our drones always look so unfinished.
I totally destroyed 3 of those Arris quads within the past 3 years. They came with good motors though. Nice video 👍
I only had 1 well I guess now 2, but my 1st one lasted maybe a week XD, thanks yo
My first was the JB Xilo phreakstyle. Actually a toughy.
Nice! love the quad's form the past! ❤ This one also comes on my livingroom quad wall 😂
My first 5 inch was a blackout 250 on 4S with 2018 motors... It was badass back then but not so much nowadays
I was a late adopter to 6s, after 4s I flew 5s for so long lol
are you still there??? turret drone to the max. and gnarly pack as per usual
thanks homie

Love the intro and outro music!
the cake is a lie, unless you build it with 6s

TBDM is perfect freestyle music

Wow, a mullet from the past 😊
I still have my storm srd 280 v3 ((same as robo cat frame))(first fpv drone) desk prop now!
My 1st one shattered into a billion bits within a week XD
@@spidersugar_fpv lol
I wanna buy my first ever quad as well! I Started in 2016 with a SkyRC Sphinx 6" Drone. and a Align T10 Radio. Imma get my hands on a new one
Highly recommend revisiting, great trip down memory lane
😂 6s banger😂😂
What's with the Poke balls on the ground? Did you catch them all?
lol I have no idea, thinking they are water main covers XD
is it weird that I want it to like me?
black dahlia is the fucking note
Haha, no I think that's normal XD

Glad someone noticed XD

I just got done squeezing an 03 into a 4" gecko last night. I think the frame is 4 years old in general (maybe 5?), but it's amazing to me right now
