I installed that strip and controller on my Bee35 build. They're REALLY fun. I'm not one to "pimp" a quad but I surprised myself with how much enjoyment these add. Thanks for an interesting, informative, and entertaining video. Happy flying amigo. 🍻
Yes those LEDs are so funny and also bring so nice features to itself and the fc too🔥 Thanks a lot for having watched my video and pleased that you have enjoyed it🙏 This last weekend I also built my Bee35 and added this same very LEDs. I have made a step by step video about the build, most probably gonna post it on yt this coming weekend, stay tuned. Happy flying to you too mate🔥🔥
Thanks for the reply. I look forward to seeing your Bee35 build. Mine is almost complete. I want to add an 03 Air Unit and am saving up the money to buy it lol. A couple of days ago I installed the GPS/magnetometer module. Everything is working fine except I think I damaged the ESC board in a crash during hover testing. I plan to install a new one and a new flight controller too while I'm at it. I think it might be damaged too because I can no longer connect to INAV, only BetaFlight. This has been a difficult build. Lot's of things have failed. Even the first LED strip that I got from Speedy Bee was defective. Some builds seem to be cursed lol. I am a VERY determined person though and won't quit until I'm satisfied that it's flying as well as it possibly can lol. Thanks again for sharing your adventures. I've subbed your channel. Happy flying amigo. 🍻
Thanks a lot for your sub🔥🔥 When I first planned to build the bee35 I had chosen the speedybee stack v4 30x30 but even though the frame allows for this size of stack the building process is quite though especially if you plan to have the 03 on board, since the space available is very limited and in my case I had the stack touching the 03. So then I got a speedybee stack 20x20 and the build has gone well. If you plan to buy a new stack I suggest you to get a speedybee one, great stuff, then the fc has a Bluetooth connectivity and also it allows you to have the gps powered up via usb as well, so that before flying you plug a power bank into the fc usb port and you have the rx and gps running already, so while you get your remote control and goggles ready the gps will have fixed satellites without worrying about the 03 to be overheated , then when the gps is ready plug the battery and unplug the power bank and enjoy flying mate🔥🔥
That's all good advice. I originally thought of using the F405 V4 stack in the Bee35. I have that in my 7" build and it works great. I watched several YT vids showing that 30 x 30 stacks were VERY tight in the Bee35 build so I went with the F405 mini. That is the one that got damaged. I've been looking at others but I think I'll go with the SpeedyBee F405 mini again. It has all of the features I want including the Bluetooth connectivity which is very convenient. I already know it fits well and the price is right. Even buying two, I'm at about what the competitors charge for one lol. Bummer that I have to replace it before the quad is even complete but that's how this hobby goes sometimes. I'm always learning. Expensive lessons sometimes but the joy of flying something you built yourself is VERY satisfying. I tried that trick of powering up the RX and GPS from a USB power supply, but it didn't work for me. Maybe my power bank wasn't up to the challenge. I usually hook it to my computer inside for a few minutes before the first pack. Even inside, I usually get over ten sats to lock in just a few minutes. Then I take all my gear outside and fly with a "warm start" on the GPS. Weird that it works through the laptop but not the power bank...🤔🤨 effing magic I guess lol. Thanks for the correspondence amigo. Happy flying. 🍻
The f405 v4 30x30 is exactly the one I purchased originally for the speedybee 35, but honestly speaking on a 3 / 3.5 inch drone and lower we should go with a smaller stack, the bigger one are good for 5” and above. Yeah I know also how over expensive this hobby can be sometimes 😂😂 The power bank should provide a voltage of 4.5/5 v to let the gps power up, check it out brotha🔥🔥
Love a quad with a nice LED setup. I mean I really don't see it, but it helps others see it and be aware of it. I always notice if I fly closer to people in the sky, they look up at it (probably wondering wtf it is)
Yeah that’s right mate, we as pilots don’t see the nice LEDs setup while flying but it definitely helps others to be aware of our aircraft and also they enjoy that beauty 🤩
Yep my friend, basically the positive and negative to power up the LEDs and Bluetooth chip in the leds’s module to access into the speedybee app, tx and rx to access the betaflight configurator via Bluetooth in the speedybee app as shown in the video. If in my case you choose tx3 and rx3 then remember to enable the MSP on uart3 in the ports tab in betaflight
@@fpvinprogressinstallation in simple mode via Bluetooth, just solder positive and negative, right friend, on the LED strip, it is possible to solder the three wires or just positive and negative, it already works
@betaodrone by soldering just positive and negative the LEDs works already, and you can you use in the speedybbe app too. The wires for tx and rx are an addition, you might use in case your fc doesn’t have a Bluetooth connectivity chip, and you would like have access to the configurator via Bluetooth. Anyway again by soldering just power and ground the LEDs work
The led itself works on any software you use either ardupilot, iNav etc because the LEDs itself needs only a vbatt and ground pad to be powered up and it has its own Bluetooth module to connect to the speedybee App in which you can change and edit colours, so in this case there is not connection to the software itself. On the other hand, If then you want to use the rx and tx from the LEDs module to the fc to be able to connect the fc to your software ( aurdupilot in your case ) via the speedybee app, I am not sure if it works as I have never used ardupilot and I do not know the way it functions. Is there in ardupilot the option to turn on uart ports?

Nice so there’s not enough leds to run all around the frame?? Looks good
There are enough LEDs to be positioned on each side of each arm🔥
