I would like to give a big shout out to Diatone. I had some trouble getting a Mamba stack to work. Their customer service was second to none, all queries answered fast with great information. I highly recommend Diatone.
li-on packs suck bad in the cold! I just made my first li-on flight packs out of some Sanyo ur18650zy cells rated for 2600mah and they were worse in EVERY way comparing them back to back to some RDQ 1100mah 50c 3s HV packs in some 30F degree weather. I tested them on an iflight dc3 frame with the flywoo explorer motors and HQ 3.1x3x4 props. I ran the 3s HV down to 10.1v upon landing in 9'02" pack came back to 11.2v resting, coincidentally the li-on 4s pack ran for 9'02" but was at full throttle upon landing at 10v; pack came back to 14.5v resting. I ran a second identical li-on pack down to 11.8v landing in 8'32" that pack came back to 14.6v, and I'm like, li-on packs don't belong on a 3in quad in winter time... PS the 3s pack would cruze faster and could actually do limited acro.
I'm going to have to start buying bnf quads. I bought an EZ Pilot to start learning on. Then bought a Tinyhawk Freestyle 2 and then a Tinyhawk 2. After that I've just been building. Built 5 so far and working on a 6th.
This is what I wanted first but I couldn't find a controller or goggles. I ended up buying from flywoo their cinerace 20 with controller and goggles. I like the idea of this sub 250 and relatively long flight time. Coming from my first drone, a DJI Mini 2, this roma l3 or the cinerace 20 makes sense as my first fpv. I also like the fact that its basically 2 aircraft for the price of 1 all by changing out the propellers. As always great video and information. Mahalo for sharing
like it really much, im building a 3inch for cruising, i have added the gps and currently i have the mamba 1408 4000 kv motor 12mm mount motor, those 1206 are 9 or 12 mm mount?
Very nice footage 👍 looks so smooth. Can't decide...roma L3 or roma L4? I have a BT 220 gps unit lying at home so I can add it myself. But what's nicer format?
Can you please help me? i have this drone and from what i seen in other videos, ppl can fly 100's of yards away. i was wondering how bc i cant even get 75 ft away and start losing signal on Analog. VTX unlocked, even swapped antenna on drone and tried with different goggles from my own, no change. im getting frustrated because out the box ive had troubles with this. Goggles say im on 200W, Betaflight as well im just lost
So I'm new to long range. I've been converting a crux3.5. Bigger antennas. 1000mw ELRS module. Bigger ELRS T antenna. I've always flown it with 550mah lipos. I feel like that will be my bottleneck. How do I know how big of a battery I can use? Is the higher MAH batteries safe to use? Can't seem to find the information out there for it. Happymodel suggests maximum of 4s 1100 mah. But I want to know why and what would be best.
@rilijn I got 14 minutes cruising. Did decent for a micro long range. Nothing crazy but impressive for what it was. No issues with video or RX. If you could ditch the vista and go with something lighter you would get even more flight time.
Hello, I purchased a Diatone L3 HD runcam split nano. I had zero any luck connecting my Spektrum 4650 micro receiver to it. The wires are soldered black to negative, red to 5v, and brown to the uninverted tx pad (I even tried the RC pad). I am not getting any input in the receiver tab on beta flight. I have uart one for serial rx, and IRC tramp uart two in peripheral‘s. Receiver mode is serial based receiver (speksat,s....) and the serial receiver provider is SRXL2. I wound up trying a different receiver a newbee drone dsmx, i soldered the signal wire to RC pad. It bound and worked, unfortunately the quad flew about 50 feet away and my goggles lost reception and the drone fell to the ground. It happened twice. I think either failsafe or its resetting itself. Can you please tell me what you think is going on ? Any help is appreciated Thank you
I'm moving twads micros anyway. Parts are chearper and i can fly it in my yard and at the park without any trouble. 5 in is fun but a lot of work and money
I have the Ciro 4 and it’s a dream to fly. Tune is spot on and Freddie is on the spot to assist in any way. My Roma 3 is giving me some drift issues. Not sure what’s going on.
Question for General Public has anyone ever been stopped by a police or anyone of legal Authority and they've pulled out a scale and weighed your quad has anyone ever had this happen I asked cuz I really don't care about the weight limits and restrictions iFly where it's safe I'm in the US but I always hear people freaked out about this 250 g weight limit so my only question is has anyone ever actually been stopped and had someone stick their quad on a scale???
Hi! I live in Europe and I'm starting fpv but I'm asking myself the same question! I really don't see policemen coming to me with a scale asking if they can weight my drone! I would probably more see them give me a fine because I'm in a location that is forbidden to fly. Which, with the new regulations is approximately EVERYWHERE! So the question I'm really asking myself is should I comply with anything the government asks me to comply with? I guess the only safe thing these days is to fly a whoop while staying safe in your apartment. And just let the government tell you when you're allowed to out! That's the best thing to do no matter what weight your quad is.
And 3 go to a rc club and fly there.the chip will relay all information on where you are flying and if you are doing something wrong you will be notified for the wrong doing and possibly be fined ...so if you have checked out the new rules that came out..which are called the final rules ..looks like the hobby is going to be nomore
I've noticed a trend with long range quads...besides being 250g and under what is the purpose?...fact is I can't even afford a normal quad and the equipment for fpv...so disheatning.
@@duduoson1306 aaah I see lol...i just wanna fly fpv..ive got health issues..and sadly it's becoming I item to put in a bucket list instead of something I want to do...just to expensive to try.
@@omegarad123 do you have a PC? Even before you buy a drone, you should just get a radio only(about $40 US for a betafpv) and use a free simulator just to practice for a few weeks to see if it’s something you will even like. Then slowly buy parts for a drone as you learn to fly on your pc. Or get a cheap woop bind and fly that will work for your radio down the road (about $100). The most expensive part will be goggles eventually but you can even find some budget ones for under $200 I believe. It is expensive but it gets cheaper every day!
With the new laws that came out it clearly states within line of sight..so my question is why are they selling these quads when you can't go that far out...does it have the tracking chip on it if not you will need to purchase and install yourself...remember the 3 choices that we have ..1=chip is already installed..2 you purchase and install

i absolutely love mine, i have added gps and running dji o3.
Great flying Justin, happy new year 👊👍
Nice bass notes in the intro,, shook my whole house.
Nice!
Great review! Loving the location.
Justin, did you ever get around to writing up a GPS? I heard you can remap the vtx to the LED pad? This FC only has 2 UARTS.

What do you mean by 2 for 1? Interchangeable prop size?
@@chrisobrien9481 the propeller pitch. One is aggressive for freestyle/fast and the other is less allowing for more cruising/flight time
Good quality, good review and happy new year ✌️👍🇵🇹
Happy new year Porto! 🌀🤟🏻
@@dronecamps thanks my friend 👍✌️
nice edits from the insta360 1r... hoping they will do a naked version of that cam - ps. 3000mah 4s too heavy for that 3"
Just ordered it. First fpv drone. Got 850mah batteries that gonna be ok?
Which diatone you tested and you think its the best ??
Does diatone roma L3 have any technical issues
Cool spot definitely not getting it back if you crash lol nice job !!
Awesome bro...Happy new year🤜🤛🙏
Happy New Year Huck! I hope this year is better for us. 🏆☀️🤟🏻
@@dronecamps straight up bro👉👈
Did you get prop screws? If not what size are they?

Does it have UARTs for setting up a GPS? Or no, due to the AIO?
Nice flights as usual Justin, looks like you were over by the Mosier/The Dalles area?

Hello,
insta 360 one r is not too heavy for this qwad?
And which stabilization setting had you used please
Im only getting 3 min with tattoo 4s 850 and they are new on my roma l3 without a camera is this normal
Nice 💪😃👍

How’d this go? I’ve been considering the same with a crux35 diy build. I’ve even considered making it 2s so I can have more mah for the same weight.

You have link to the video of the bigger one with GPS thats $10 more?
this one... bit.ly/3itQ7IF
Is this one of the best 2-3 in quads for new cruisers? Under 200 bucks
Wow really awesome. I see it's available with no receiver or D16 non eur. Is that Frysky then?
same as rxsr hardware
@@MKST-CA I thought so but had to make sure, just never saw it like that, thanks and have a happy new year!!

I’d like too. I’ll request it.

Any help?
Not sure about Pnp but here is the link I have bro : bit.ly/3nsc8cr
@@dronecamps TY sir!
If i buy this is this ready to fly ???? And is it can bind to radio rigth away or i need reciever?
All you need to do is wire up a receiver. Solder 4 wires and you're good to go!
@@bonemilled2678 why some say it has reciever already
Is this battery connector a xt60 or xt30?
Xt30 buddy.
Whats the range on the 400mw vtx.. F4 ĹR must be alot better?
You can get miles and miles on 400mw
@@dronecamps thankyou Mr DC! Personally which would you get the 4inch or 3 inch? I'm torn between the 2
The 4”
oh man the prices of these drones have really gone up in the last couple years. the phantom is still 130 tho
The price you mentioned is not even close to the listed price? Is there a discount code or just increase due to popularity?
So its long range for my fatsharks too ?
Could i fly this with a 2200mAh 3S ?
Would be heavy as F
Is this have reciever already?
Yes
Anyone know if you could put 3.5 inch props on the 3 inch version
Nope
In new Zealand f5 quad ranges too about $580 to $600 expensive were I'm from
This is L3 not F5. L3 has to be cheaper.
L3 yep it is a lot cheaper than the others I've seen
I'm moving twads micros anyway. Parts are chearper and i can fly it in my yard and at the park without any trouble. 5 in is fun but a lot of work and money
Same I haven't flown a lot of 5" lately.
I wanna get a legit frame and do a fresh build with parts I have for spring
How come we never talk about the L5?
This or Ciro 4LR?
I have the Ciro 4 and it’s a dream to fly. Tune is spot on and Freddie is on the spot to assist in any way. My Roma 3 is giving me some drift issues. Not sure what’s going on.
