Ooohhhhh!!! I love you JB!!! Haha. Thanks so much for the shout out. Glad you liked it brother! Happy Holidays! You can’t kill a Thunder Power! Sounds like that TP killed your tho hahaha!
Thanks mate!!! I hope you will love your perfect JB with ultras in them... But make one analog, you will see OTHER side of ultra. It has also some wows in there. :))))))
He totally missed out on passthrough, the gui, and all the other awesomeness you put into it. selling like hotcakes for you. hope to get my hands on one or two in the near future! :)
the problem of you is fvckn supply! can you make mass production or just limited stock? if u can't please don't relese the sh1t product, it's hurt me as kiss ass user :)
very cool JB! Glad you are digging it -- this is only the beginning for kiss-ultra. while KISS v2 (and fettec kiss fw) are basically frozen in amber, ULTRA is here to carry the torch for kiss. the improvements will continue!
I knew it!! I've been telling people if they want Betaflight to fly like KISS most of what you need to do is reducing input/RC filtering DRAMATICALLY. Basically Auto Smoothness Factor of like 1-5 and its amazing how much it starts to fly like KISS.
@@jaredmende3641 Reduce filters to minimum, and push the PID gains while reducing rc filtering to near zero match the rates up and the rigs fly pretty damn similar. Not the same but similar.
4:00 - not moving the sticks much. I would guess D-term vibes getting through to motors? ~~~ JB - if you find one, get 2 and I'll send ya $$. I'll put it on the dual FC rig for a close look at the ins and outs. ~~~
What I've learned from flying and watching FPV vids is that it is nearly impossible to tell how a quad flies by watching a video. I've seen JB's vids where he says, 'the latency is almost unflyable', or 'this feels so locked in', or 'this quad feels waaaay too heavy' ... and all the videos look the same. I have no doubt that they feel different, but it's nearly impossible to tell from watching the video. However, the one big variable that you can use to differentiate from watching a video is ... how do the motors sound? And these motors sound great. So yeah, you can have a great flying KISS-based quad. And I'm sure there are Betaflight-based quads that fly better than the one in this video. I guess the point is that it seems like it might be easier to get to 'a great flying quad' with KISS than with Betaflight? But that the reason is probably more due to conservative defaults by the Betaflight devs, more than any real KISS magic? The other concern is that there is a bit of ego involved - Mark Spatz wants to show that he can tune a Betaflight quad to fly as good as (or better than) a KISS-based quad. For me, (in addition to JB's test, which should provide some useful information) I would like to see a test between two quads - one with KISS and one with Betaflight, flashed to defaults and given to a pilot with 1.5 years of experience. He should then set up and get the quads flying good. Then, to test them, have some pilots do blind testing of the two quads to see how they fly. It's very imperfect, but maybe you get some information about which is easier to get flying well? I am not Mark Spatz, and I don't do black-box analysis. I build a pretty solid quad, make the tune a bit more aggressive and I tell myself I've done a great job and just get flying. But my motors do not sound like the ones in the video. (Now, with all of that said, you absolutely _can_ see when a quad is poorly tuned. Propwash, throbbles and being underpowered are very visible in unstabilised footage. And, because I'm familiar with JB's videos, I can assume that the uptilt was a bit higher than JB's normal setup as he appeared to be flying faster than usual. But that's not really interesting information).
“It definitely has a certain feel”!!!! Thank you lord Bardwell! I’ve spent sooo much time trying to explain this to people that literally only fly BF and they say that it’s placebo. But much like you, I’ve flown all firmwares. There is something a bit different, not sure what it is. Perhaps the lack of RC smoothing?
in my opinion, on kiss, an RC deadband of 10/10/20, tpyically will eat any center jitter and smooth out any forward flight jitter from lack of rc smoothing
@@zfpv7211 yeah i know, its something u gotta look for. just put the quad on rails and see if it kinda wanders, but like i said, on kiss with deadband 10/10/20. it seems to eat any type of jitter around center i might ever have
@@Krunked well perhaps we can coerce Fedorov to take a look at the for us. That’s the beauty of the new and improved Kiss ultra. Alex is very responsive and puts out updates faster than any other firmware that I am aware of. Although, I do understand that he is swapped because of this.
My Kiss v2 flies SO damn good, but I still prefer betaflight. I hate the closed source garbage, and I like to be able to fix my own gear if I can, because let's face it - this stuff isn't getting any cheaper so if I can save it all the better. If the MCU goes on a Kiss or Fettec board - there is no replacing the chip and flashing, like with BF. And if your Ultra goes down, good luck getting a new one right now.
@@alexanderfedorov7890 I have Kiss build and BF(don't have ultra). I prefer BF. I even tested the Kiss on the same quad that I run BF. It doesn't fly as good. It's not APEX so presets are not there for me and the lack of black box is just not helping. Will probably try the utra in the future if its not just a hype but I doubt that. The recipe for kiss is same build with presets(apex). :D
@@alexanderfedorov7890 don't get me wrong, I love Kiss and you did a great job. I have two kiss quads 🙂. Just wish it was easier to tinker with the components. I even camped out on the site to get one of the first ones but it crashed. Two friends are flying the Ultra and I'd like to switch one of my V2's to that.
@@jinxfpv6637 Nothing wrong mate. Demand is WAY higher then i am manufacturing. Oh, you was not lucky refunded by flyduino customers? Shame, you could get free ultra from us back in a day.
Looks nice but you can make betaflight fly this well no problem, and I can't see getting into a FC ecosystem where part availability is so poor. If I can't get the fleet on it, it's not worth it. If I lose an FC and can't replace it for 7 months, it's not worth it. If my betaflight FC I like is out of stock, I can get a random mamba f411 to hold me over. Can't do that with Ultra.
It looks good, but I am fly the FETTEC G4, and it does the same, feels very different to the F7. But the biggest questions is.... how different is Ultra and G4 in flying? And if you try the G4, you have to use the new Public Beta Firmware.... I am looking forward to these Videos from you, best regards
Sick ripping JB! It looked so smooth! A small batch of Kiss Ultras went on sale on Christmas Eve and the website crashed on me 😔! But one day we will have one hopefully. Cheers Buddy, Happy new year 🎉
Thank you Joshua, you give very FAIR Review for this Kiss ULTRA,..... ! Thank you for Alex F to make Very Stable Firmware and does not make us a trial and error of the software... Thanks to Krunked too for Preset Tune... too Lazy for me to be Phd just for this Hobby,.....LOL....,... Easy build & Fly Perfecto just it..... !! is the Goal.
"gotta turn this hat around like a cool FPV pilot" Damn Bardwell, you takin shots at me bruh? Come at me..... LOL (I do it so I don't have to fight my hair with the goggles)
Happy and Merry to you JB There extreme sports going on in your head which shows in your flying Good to see a crash keeping us all humble. PS if racing was integrated into the larger 3D of freestyle you would likely become a champion.... just saying.
Dude I’m a amateur and I was just about to quit on Fettec cause their lack of customer support when finally after two month talking with them that they couldn’t send me a replacement for f7 so they sent me g4 and omg I’m so fed cause it insanely fast like I never seen before the robotic feel in sooooo good! Definitely the n01 fc out there today
The felling absolutely not about kiss... Just try any f405 succex for example and load emuflight on it, feathered pids to 0, and all other useless stuff in the right column on pid tuning tab except iterm relax and I decay. Raise D to about 42-45, and tune P. Tune dynamic rates from freestyle preset, turn off tpa and spa(100), turn off static filters on gyro, set dterm filter to biquad 120-130hz, choose 2pass mixer and turn on throttle linearization. You'll get a perfect quad with no propwash and also it won't sag down on yaw movements. You'll never want betaflight anymore...
@@alexanderfedorov7890 I have a friend of mine with kiss a fc... for almost a year his drone didn't want to fly properly, because stock pids didn't work for him, so he had to tune all filters and pids by himself without any help and without any startpoint. As for the easy way you could come to the local drone shop and order any build you want and they will also tune it for you and after you brake it they will repair it, but that does cost money. Так что Саня не пзди
Man everytime I saw that wood fence section with the gap I was hoping he'd thread the needle. I get it tho, it's a loaner. I wish I could fly as well as JB.
Awesomeness!🔥 I’d love to see you throw a G4 or kiss ultra in your build, and note the difference’s. Just picked up a g4 going to have to give it a shot.👍🏻

THANK YOU! AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
Soooooooo……..put the one you have in to get that review, contact the developer and with your status I’m sure that a review piece will magically show up in your mailbox for the second half of the review! Hey- you have some pull with your absolutely honest reviews, and iffn it’s that good, which it seems like it is, it’s a win-win for all involved. And the new building in your pasture keeps my curiosity raging…cattle barn? Huge chicken coop? Rental apartments for your soon to be announced on site lessons? Yer killing me with your videos, what’s up?
@ 6:58 - Damnnn JB I was yelling for you to PULL UP.....BAIL OUT.....OUCH! Nice rescue! Did it damage the quad?? Sooooo - we are basing overall performance on Krunked's tuning (which is awesome btw....) ??? How does this lend credo to the FC? I'd say Krunked is the real hero here......
Hi Joshua I can’t get the new beta flight configurator to connect to any flight controller I own on win 11 I have tried driver fixer zandag No dice does not find the comport goes to vertual
The "official" answer seems to be that you have to join the discord, then wait for an announcement of stock arrival on the discord, then rush to the store and try to get some before they sell out. They come back into stock periodically, but you're unlikely to find them unless you follow this process.
Hey I have a problem maybe u can solve it Have a 4 in one esc using 2207 2750kv motors and at 1050 min value they started to twitch(not spin and stop when the value is to low, they spin but they are super sputtery) I know it isn’t a motor problem and when I use the throttle control in betaflight they are super smooth and don’t get hot. I lowered it to 920 and they spun fine but as I throttled up they started to sputter. Also one motor is spinning slightly fater than the others. Any tips? Im not sure if its D value.
Could someone please guide me about a little thing plz, I am beginner going to build my first fpv drone. I want a fast and powerful quad and so far I've two motor choices, T-motor pacer 2207.5 1950kv Vs T-motor F80 pro 2200kv 5s. Which one of these two setups will serve better for my top speed goal. And thoughts on a 5s setup?
thanks! about the FC comparison... well, since you have the G4, start with that! 😂 and I’m not saying this just because I have a G4 to put in an Apex 5”, oh no... 😂
Wow. If you didn't find issues you wouldn't be doing your job but you had to nitpick in slo mo to find something. I don't fly KISS. Karate was OK for me but not this good without a couple of packs and some blackbox changes. Competition is great because we win. Way to go KISS.
I didn't have to nit pick in slow mo. I noticed it first during a livestream when I was showing off the footage and the livestream called it out. I put it in slow mo because I knew many viewers don't know what to look for and would just be like what is he talking about. Do you not see it in the regular footage? If I don't call it out then people dog pile me saying I'm giving kiss a pass and shilling. So I'm just gonna keep doing my thing.
@@JoshuaBardwell I didn't see it. I didn't intend to offend either. I'm always learning. You are a great ambassador for the hobby and I can safely say I have learned more from you than others cumulatively. I appreciate what you do.
@@alexanderfedorov7890 So nothing that special about the hardware as I can get BF FCs with those specs. It's the version of Kiss that makes it special?
The biggest problem with POPO motors is that if the props are not made just right, the props rip off and the balls get jammed up with plastic and they just don't work. Basically you have to use HQ props or Lumenier props only.
@@JoshuaBardwell oh wow that i didnt know. I have POPO motors on both my quads. Havnt flown in almost a year due to buying a house and the subsequent move then it got cold outside. I will have to go through my props and see what brands i have.
@@alexanderfedorov7890 well specifically: the difference on if i'm going to buy it. I don't see myself buying flight controllers where I can't check and if necessary adjust to software to my needs. less specifically: the hobby to me has always been about an approach where we try to help each other and share our knowledge to get better - and the recent successes of elrs and edgetx, but also the huge success that is clean-/beta-flight/inav, or the opensource firmwares we run on most esc, just underline that this spirit is good for our hobby.
@@PeterPetermann Same way as closed source doesn't stop you from FLYING. You have your preference, some people do not care whats inside, they want to fly. Thats what its all about, and not about how great it is inside. But you open source guys are one sided... Only OS is good, rest is evil. :) People choose what they like. Thats the beauty - DIVERSITY. Imagine u have one BETAFLIGHT and thats it. ;) How wonderful will it be? I am joking. I do have bit of code i made in betaflight too :)
You stop the footage to to show something wrong with the tune... You play it back to show me the problem. I have no idea what you're talking about. Look smooth to me.
Ok no problem if you're happy with that footage then the issue doesn't matter to you. That's why I slowed it down and replayed it. So you can decide if it matters.

Kiss Ultra discord - discord.gg/ZGwpgwq2
Wow nice
For what its worth the motors sounded pretty on point.
I am super excited for the FC shootout 😁
Is it really different tan mamba mk2 ?
Soooooooo……..put the one you have in to get that review, contact the developer and with your status I’m sure that a review piece will magically show up in your mailbox for the second half of the review! Hey- you have some pull with your absolutely honest reviews, and iffn it’s that good, which it seems like it is, it’s a win-win for all involved. And the new building in your pasture keeps my curiosity raging…cattle barn? Huge chicken coop? Rental apartments for your soon to be announced on site lessons? Yer killing me with your videos, what’s up?
G4 FTW lolz love them all
Where you buy? Out of stock....
been on the wait list for months now! They ever gonna make more?
what about the G4?
@ 6:58 - Damnnn JB I was yelling for you to PULL UP.....BAIL OUT.....OUCH! Nice rescue! Did it damage the quad??
Sooooo - we are basing overall performance on Krunked's tuning (which is awesome btw....) ??? How does this lend credo to the FC? I'd say Krunked is the real hero here......
Insane freestyle
happy new year Joshua
I might give a lot of the credit to build quality.
YASSS PHANTOM IS PROXYBLAST 🐐👑 😍😍🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
looks like a drone that flies to me 🤷🏻♂️
Beards lookin nice bro
What’s the deal with new motors or any Fc are any that are much better? do we really notice anything. I flown f4 f7 different brands. All seem similar
Hi Joshua I can’t get the new beta flight configurator to connect to any flight controller I own on win 11 I have tried driver fixer zandag No dice does not find the comport goes to vertual
Win11 screwed up your drivers? Go back to Win10?
@@JoshuaBardwell I just rolled back to the older configuratior no issues
The Dji Action footage looks awesome but I hate the Sound that it records…GoPro footage just sounds better 🤌🏼
The grass is always greener in the south 😂😂
I'd like to see you testing a FL1 H7.
I'd like to see you testing a FL1 H7.
good to know about kiss I've always thought they may be better fliers.
man that throttle sounds angry! is it the props?
where kiss really shines is rates, pids, and overall simplicity. Those are why I fly kiss anyways.
Joshua… you’ve got the kiss Ultra FC. Just screw it in your build and make that video… please. Just wanna know what you think.
which esc did u use man? thanksssss......
Has the tune been messed with at all? Just curious. This is very impressive if it's totally default.
Ah, pidtune preset
@@MysteryD its very close to ultra default tune really, which is bases on @krunked golden
Any news about KISS ultra ? The project closed? Out of stock long time
The "official" answer seems to be that you have to join the discord, then wait for an announcement of stock arrival on the discord, then rush to the store and try to get some before they sell out. They come back into stock periodically, but you're unlikely to find them unless you follow this process.
Hey I have a problem maybe u can solve it
Have a 4 in one esc using 2207 2750kv motors and at 1050 min value they started to twitch(not spin and stop when the value is to low, they spin but they are super sputtery) I know it isn’t a motor problem and when I use the throttle control in betaflight they are super smooth and don’t get hot. I lowered it to 920 and they spun fine but as I throttled up they started to sputter. Also one motor is spinning slightly fater than the others. Any tips? Im not sure if its D value.
I have a box of KISS Ultra. Maybe you can convince Alex, but if not... Lmk
Lucky. I'm trying my best to get one.
I’ll take one haha
Could someone please guide me about a little thing plz, I am beginner going to build my first fpv drone. I want a fast and powerful quad and so far I've two motor choices, T-motor pacer 2207.5 1950kv Vs T-motor F80 pro 2200kv 5s. Which one of these two setups will serve better for my top speed goal. And thoughts on a 5s setup?
thanks! about the FC comparison... well, since you have the G4, start with that! 😂 and I’m not saying this just because I have a G4 to put in an Apex 5”, oh no... 😂
What esc is running on that build?
It can be the best fc in the world 😀 as u said availability zero…BF you can always find one and get back flying…
Maaan how did you get one.. I been looking high and low.. siiigh edit... Oh..
Wow. If you didn't find issues you wouldn't be doing your job but you had to nitpick in slo mo to find something. I don't fly KISS. Karate was OK for me but not this good without a couple of packs and some blackbox changes. Competition is great because we win. Way to go KISS.
I didn't have to nit pick in slow mo. I noticed it first during a livestream when I was showing off the footage and the livestream called it out. I put it in slow mo because I knew many viewers don't know what to look for and would just be like what is he talking about.
Do you not see it in the regular footage?
If I don't call it out then people dog pile me saying I'm giving kiss a pass and shilling. So I'm just gonna keep doing my thing.
@@JoshuaBardwell I didn't see it. I didn't intend to offend either. I'm always learning. You are a great ambassador for the hobby and I can safely say I have learned more from you than others cumulatively. I appreciate what you do.
I see that you were just trying to say how good the build was, not criticizing me for "nit picking". Sorry -- I was a little too sensitive.
Such a nice beard
First air2 s army out
the only problem is it very hard to buy.
Krunked is Kiss tuner (LOL with my arse) :D
I'd love to know more about the hardware and what makes it special? What gyro, CPU etc.
h7, mpu6000. its completely re-written.
@@Krunked not completelly. Still based on kiss souce for flying. But there is less and less of it left. Same feeling though stays!
@@alexanderfedorov7890 So nothing that special about the hardware as I can get BF FCs with those specs. It's the version of Kiss that makes it special?
@@chrisyoung8062 hardware is easy part ;) Soft - not. :)
Lol Kiss still in business ? 🤣
10 months later and still out of stock everywhere
Are they afraid to send you one?
Alex sent me two after this experience.
@@JoshuaBardwell that's good news, looking foward to your comparisons and thanks again!
Did you go back to the Xiaomi yi? This camera footage is horrid.
This is GoPro Hero 8. Guess you don't like the color grade.
Don't watch every video because some of them don't pertain to me,but the ones that do 👍💯👍
So you dont like popo motors?
The biggest problem with POPO motors is that if the props are not made just right, the props rip off and the balls get jammed up with plastic and they just don't work. Basically you have to use HQ props or Lumenier props only.
@@JoshuaBardwell oh wow that i didnt know. I have POPO motors on both my quads. Havnt flown in almost a year due to buying a house and the subsequent move then it got cold outside. I will have to go through my props and see what brands i have.
Nothing beats flying kiss……. Nothing
if only all that kiss stuff was opensource.
And what difference it will make?
@@alexanderfedorov7890 well specifically: the difference on if i'm going to buy it. I don't see myself buying flight controllers where I can't check and if necessary adjust to software to my needs.
less specifically: the hobby to me has always been about an approach where we try to help each other and share our knowledge to get better - and the recent successes of elrs and edgetx, but also the huge success that is clean-/beta-flight/inav, or the opensource firmwares we run on most esc, just underline that this spirit is good for our hobby.
@@PeterPetermann well. its good u have what you like. kiss for people who just want to fly and not to code.
@@alexanderfedorov7890 and how would opensource stop you from flying?
@@PeterPetermann Same way as closed source doesn't stop you from FLYING. You have your preference, some people do not care whats inside, they want to fly. Thats what its all about, and not about how great it is inside. But you open source guys are one sided... Only OS is good, rest is evil. :) People choose what they like. Thats the beauty - DIVERSITY. Imagine u have one BETAFLIGHT and thats it. ;) How wonderful will it be? I am joking. I do have bit of code i made in betaflight too :)
i dont like how it sound...
Does it have a damn osd chip?
Yes.
@@JoshuaBardwell finally!
There is no "osd" chip. Graphical osd is generated by SAME H7 cpu that also runs flight code.
@@alexanderfedorov7890 bro osd is osd i dont care what produces it lol
@@_Brando_69 Then it has OSD.
Come over to the dark side Joshua.......
You stop the footage to to show something wrong with the tune... You play it back to show me the problem. I have no idea what you're talking about. Look smooth to me.
Ok no problem if you're happy with that footage then the issue doesn't matter to you. That's why I slowed it down and replayed it. So you can decide if it matters.
