Great video. The idea of putting less material in the frame where the motor screws are is such a good idea. Plus shorter screw. I love the idea of adding some glue to the motor wires. Great tip.
'The gift of flight', well said. I fly my 5.5" Chris Rosser EVO frame, so a little ways from TinyWhoops. But halleluja, flyin is fantastic no matter what class 1 ride. As long as U ride HDZero ;)
Thanks so much, Jesse, for the awesome review! And a big shoutout to our Captain AK for all his ideas and hard work on this project. Your feedback and insights are incredibly valuable, and I’ll keep pushing to make it even better. Appreciate the support!
Great video! Great hardware review, great interview. Really enjoyed it! One question - how do you trim those screws, making sure not to break them or something? With pliers, knife, scalpel..?
Is it actually 12A this time? or NBD once again using the exact same FETs (EEx marking -> SIA517 mosfet) that every other tinywhoop board has and those are all specced as 5A
Got mine down to 15.3g with reny screws on motors, 0.18 gram canopy, lighter grommets(half the weight), I used extremely short and small diamter head m1.4 motor screws that it came with on the canopy instead, though I plan to go reny when I get my next batch in mail. Micro USB is going to be swapped with plastic connector, remove camera connector, swap lighter camera on, replace camera wires with enamel wire, clip frames battery tray as seen in video(thanks for idea!), and HQ light props. I actually added some e6000 right where the magnet coil phase wires exit the motor, the otherside should be fairly easy to fix if they do break off.
I noticed my liteaf frame was different than the one i bought. The black frame was stiff and the white frames are flexible. Even with the air65 frames, the white ones are way more loosey goosey
I broke the frame quick. IMO not for beginners. But get it still just switch to a more heavy durable frame. Then switch back to it cause it is lite AF. 😍
I just had to ship mine back to NBD to have the crystal oscillator replaced. ELRS was sketchy on mine. In general, I'm a little disappionted in NBD on the design decisions. They should have made a bigger leap on this FC and given it actual motor pads and NOT forked Betaflight. I would have liked to have a PCB on the motors as well. The canopy was kind of a weak attempted at a copy and they already had to revise it due to the concern about bumping the VTX. The new canopy sits at around 40 degress on its lowest setting and it honeslty felt weird trying to take it any higher (not that I need it any higher). I'm also finding the battery tray on the LiteAF frame to be LooseAF. I haven't purchased a NBD craft in 3 years and I very quickly remembered why.
YEAH HELL, IT DESERVERS A LIKE !
Oh my god this is the best review/edit I’ve ever seen!!!!!
CRUSHED THE VIDEO DUDE! Super well done! Thanks for having me!
An honor to have ya on the channel brother!
Absolute top notch production quality on your videos lately! Super detailed and every bit of information you could share. Thank you Mr Tinywhoop!
Man, very kind words!! Thank you
Agree!!
Nightwing casually following in the intro is some serious skill 😂
This is an awesome video! Love the presentation Jesse!!
Thank you shogun :)
@@TinyWhoop 👊😘
Loving the channel bro!! Great job!!!!
Thanks man!!!

So..."Custom" is the nickname of the person who's packing my orders .
Nice flying, mod skills and packaging!
@@ivanluhi yep!
yup! that’s me!
Great video! It's nice to see NBD stepping up their game, now if only they'd go the open source route on the FC
Couldn't agree more

Maaaaan I love this here quad. it's so fast and responsive.

Hell yeah Jesse!!
Great job
Power, flight time, and durability make this the "Best of 2024" in both value and performance!!!
Well done sir... 🫡from seattle
Thank you Jesse!!!!!

As a beginner playing with the FeelFPV On my iPad. Where do I start with a receiver and drone for indoor with room to spec up
drill some holes in the propellers to reduce an extra gram
Metal connector for betaflight: Dremel it's shield as much as possible. Superglue for security.
Love the technical overview and mods, really comprehensive. What are people doing still making SPI ELRS though what is this 2022?😅

I thought props-in was standard for ducted Tiny Whoops? Should I switch all my ducted whoops to props-out? My 2" toothpick is props-out.
I recommend it
@ props out it is!
Nice video!
But I don't understan why this FC promoted like it has 12a fets if it uses regular sia517(3 for each motor)?
I will ask the me manufacturer and get back to you.
In depth!
shyeah, maybe tooo indepth??
@@TinyWhoop , No way buddy!
Nice video! Do I see AWG20 main cable?
When will more come on stock on tw😅
Hello i want to get into fpv but my dad wont buy me a drone because theyre expensive.Please will you send me the cheapest or any tinywhoop?
I broke the frame quick. IMO not for beginners. But get it still just switch to a more heavy durable frame. Then switch back to it cause it is lite AF. 😍
give them a ticket, they'll send you a new cockroach frame
I think the black frames are weaker
@MKST-CA the air65 frame is the champ of them all IMO

Little stupid to keep the micro usb, instead of ape after betafpv.
NBD camera and vtx combo looks terrible. I just don't like the final video feed.
