Buddy you are an absolute god send in this hobby. You literally cover EVERYTHING I have ever had questions about or had problems with. You make this hobby so much more enjoyable for us trying to learn. Without you most of us would have given up and im sure a lot of you will agree. Many thanks brother you’re a legend!!!
When I first saw it with all of the parts bags it was intimidating but after I went through it once, but the second run through it everything made sense. I do like all the extras as it came in handy when I was mounting the VTX and trying to get other things to work. They should divide the parts in two, the absolutly needed for assembly and the bags that you may need. So far so happy.
If you’re running the o3 then it absolutely makes sense to run it! Being a little heavy really doesn’t matter any more at that point, and durable it sure is! My absolutely go to frame! Stoked you gave it some positive light though!
Been flying one of these frames for a good few months now, Albeit heavy this is a seriously good frame with some seriously good customer service behind it.. highly recommend! Massive thanks to the FlyFishRc Team🐟
FlyFish's logo is awesome. So simple and so effective. Edit: Black and Decker makes several decent electric drivers that are more than capable of driving screws on a drone for $40 or less depending on the model. I have the "pivot" version and it works well for driving anything you might drive by hand.
Theres a v2 of this frame now . Made a few improvements and lightened the frame slighly too . I have both the v1 qnd v2 and both have taken a beating and are still going strong
Take a look at the O3 DeadCat version of the MK5. It's basically this frame, but without the unnecessary bling Flyfish added. They also sacrificed weight for the dead cat layout. MK5 - 158g MK5X O3 - 156.1g MK5D O3 - 197.0g
It was a very intuitive, smooth build, with very snappy looking 3D prints but I already have a trio of heavyweight girls. In the beginning, a heavier more durable quad is good but sometimes raw power is fun too 😁 Great review JB.
I just assembled this frame a couple days ago. I didn't know they had detailed instructions. I just had to figure it out haha. Also it's the first frame I ever put together.
@@QuandarNl I'm sorry, I read your question five times and I'm not sure what you are asking. Just to be clear I haven't built this quadcopter yet, I had to buy a new car so it was put on hold. Perhaps if I watch the video again you're question will make more sense.
I have the DC version of that. And I had to buy TPU inserts, put em into the mounts, which had to be turned inside out, and then make sure the cam wasn't touching the frame, in order to keep jitters out of the camera's gyro data. Otherwise - it's a great frame, as JB noted.
I have the 6" and actually it is my best flying rig 👍No O3 problems and in general easy to tune and butter smooth! (Quick add on: for Cinematic flying!!)
I've been flying the VX5 for a few months and it's really durable. The only thing I didn't like when building it was the power wires. if your esc positive and negative aren't lined up with the connector you gotta cross the wires and it's a tight fit.
This new content is making me want to switch all of the gear from one of my drones to a new frame . 😛 Off topic tho I think it would be productive to use a drone to drop a 150 mm popper on breezing Bluefin Tuna from a distance but design a setup that can be used rapidly to deploy baits and lures for 25 rods , one right after the other . Currently some sportfishing charters use kites and balloons so bait placement is dictated by boat positioning and the wind . Its very productive for Bluefin Tuna ( 40 to 180 pounds ) in the proper situation and when nothing else is working. A drone can move at any angle across or against the wind so that bait placement can be dramatically improved and expedited. I've seen a few fishing assist drones online and are mostly used for surf casting long distances . Hovering over a drifting boat is probably challenging.
I have started using 3mm grommets on my screws that hold TPU on like the front bumper, got a bag of 250 for 6 bucks on Amazon They just kinda smash down so your screw is tight without crushing tpu
Awesome video as always . I dream of this frame I want one so bad just can’t afford new carbon . Can’t wait to hopefully one day meet you mr bardwell and shake your hand and thank you for all your advice and knowledge through my fpv journey . Forever grateful and thankful 🙏. Bonus would be to rip a pack or 2 with ya 🤜🤛😎
So the one I got was little different in that the pressed nuts were not that same. Top plate was not cu out for battery slip pad. Well over all it was a great build thanks Josh.
I guess you need to subtract the XT60 weight, because that‘s usually hanging on the ESC wires, but that won‘t make that much of a difference. My 7 inch frame weighs 150g, and that’s pretty durable too, so for a five inch that weight is a deal breaker for me as well.
I am of the mindset of lighter frame over durability. I've been designing for a few years now, slowly fine tuning my design for weight/durability/functionality/maintenance/harmonics/aesthetics/easy prints. That's a lot to juggle 🙃
It would be great if you could measure the frames and quads you get in a similar manner to make them comparable. Not sure which frame you mean with 110g, but from what I found the QAV-S Joshua Bardwell Special Edition is 107g WITHOUT battery pad, hardmounted XT60, chin guard, arm guard, antenna holders and stack screws. The rotor riot tanq which you quote as "only 180 grams" is 184.8g on your scale, without battery pad, XT60, chin guard, arm guard and stack screws. I don't think a manufacturer should be shamed for providing optional additional pieces.
I got the v1 frame about 4 months ago and still love it. The build is pretty straight forward, parts are quality. My daily go to 5", flies great. Always a very detailed video JB!!
It's a beautiful frame but I must side with you when you were ranting about all the different size screws... It's not a beginner friendly build, flies Beautifully though once it's all assembled... 👍
(FIXED) Edit: I Found a Third SD card and it worked with that one. Joshua Bardwell, i have an issue and cannot seem to solve it no matter what. I cannot Update the Firmware on my Fatshark Dominator HD, both the Goggle and vtx firmware. I have tried a different sd card, tried to format them again, Ensured i did all the steps correctly by looking at other videos as well. The version is just stuck at 20.20.3
I bought this frame for my 8s build. The thing I dislike the most is having the connect at the back. Because of this I have to extend the capicator with a wire to the front, but this causes problems. The other way is to mount it at the arm, which looks ugly and is not well protected there. I should have bought a different frame.
It would be great to see more of the non- bias effected reviews. One in wich the product isn’t rated upon one’s own personal taste rather the overall experience and quality attention to detail ext. is a slick strap worse than a frame that doesn’t include one at all?
Yes a slick strap is worse because it's just a waste. This isn't just a preference. I acknowledge preference when I express then. A battery strap that ejects your battery is worse than one that doesn't.
Hey buddy, do you know these small screw sets with the small screw heads and screwer (don't know the exact word). Do you know why it's hard to apply much torque with these tools while screwing stuff in? It's so you don't strip it. You're using a power tool, for aluminium screws, relax, or set the torque to 1nm, and do the rest manually.
The torque on my driver is adjustable simply by twisting my wrist. It has a gyro in it. I am turning them in as gently as possible. They are not stripping because I have an electric driver.
Nice review, too heavy for my taste, but.. First of all might not be a fair comparison of weight, because you weighed it with all tpu parts. Usually frame weight is carbon and metal hardware only,. Also, are you sure you got those 4 tpu standoff parts, facing the right way? :p Overall great review and a very nice frame. I like that it comes with all tpu pars and plenty of hardware!
Myself and other members of KwadKvlt have watched Josh Grau #GrauFPV bash the shit out of this frame to the point where half or better of the local members have swapped to it bc of its unbelievable durability. Yeah it’s heavy but if your flying concrete n steel like we do down here in Tennessee and you don’t want to come home with a broke quad every weekend this is worth your consideration. It’s high quality frame, with an excellent price point compared to other frames in this class. I believe it’s the only one cut from T-700 carbon and it also comes with all of the prints you need. Really hard to argue against this frame. I don’t own it personally but it is the #1 contender on my list when I break my current frame.
But doesn't extra weight even though obviously thicker is stronger create more mass slamming into the ground? To me anytime I fly a heavier gopro or a tank like this they seem to slam the ground way harder to me. Wich to me isn't worth giving up the flight performance for the "durability"
I am building my first ever FPV freestyle quad. I am going fairly budget with the electronics, all analog. Would this be a good frame? I was considering the One Source V5, Roma F5 V2, and Marmotte as well. I know I don't need to spend quite so much on the frame but assuming I enjoy the hobby I'd like to eventually go digital and would likely use the same frame. Or maybe not? Also I will be mounting a go-pro and be using it as a Freestyle/Cinematic. Thank you regardless!
Man this frame looked awesome until the last minute. I suppose if I switch my freestyle to o3 I could justify an extra chonky frame, but I'm one of those weirdos who likes audio on my freestyle recordings.
I am scared to death of using a drill to screw in quad screws because of the stripping possibility lol i just like to hand screw them and i can feel how much tension is on them but that is a kick@$$ lil drill i still want one for xmas😁✌🏽
this "weight" thing surprised me in the beginning aswell. but when you compare the final weight of a built copter the difference is no that mucht tbh. like you said some ppl like it to be heavier: like I do. It gives you easier cinematic and smooth footage even at high winds and when freestyling. And the weight doesnt affect the flightime that much. I get about 7-8mins flytime (6s 1300 mAh) on my DC build when cruisng. And its a freaking tank in the air xD i destroyed bandos while crashing without loosing a single arm yet ^^
So while both the volador v1 and v2 are both heavier than desired, have you thought about taking a look at FlyFish's Fifty5 frame? its 127 grams and is also a true x frame which isn't seen very often in 2023/2024.
Hi, I just finished my first quad using your videos! But I did something wrong with the VTX, I got the wrong type of antenna. Now ordering again I want to make sure that I'm getting something that is suitable for my needs, I'm ordering a "lollipop antenna" since it has pretty good reviews but I'm not sure about it's range (which is the most crucial factor for me) in comparison to other antennas. Could you please make a video on that or tell me what type of antenna would be best for high range flying? Thanks!
Hey, do you have the blackbox log from freestyle by any chance to check and compare? Thinking about upgrading 3 builds to something extra durable. Thank you
@joshua bardwell hey I am doing the tyro119 build finally getting around to finishing it, kinda put the hobby on hold for a little anyway. If I buy the radio master x12 elrs. and a elrs receiver should work right any recommendations for radios or receiver. Trying to go kinda cheap right now if I keep building quads I'll probably buy a radiomaster x16s
Yes if you buy the TX12 ELRS and an ELRS receiver they will work. Here are my recommendations: www.fpvknowitall.com/fpv-shopping-list-controller-and-receiver/
pfffft but i just bought your frameeee.. its the only frame. must have jb's frame :D haha,,, i was able to get my fpv camera in position on vannys true x frame to not see props in the view :O
By your videos I started in this hobby and I have no regrets. Thank you for your time and effort 👌.

I ordered a 2nd v1 and the next day at rdq saw the v2 🤦♂️
No way 😂
I literally was going to ask that lol I could've swore I seen a v2 of this frame 👍🏼
I’ve been trying to figure out the differences between the 2, is it worth the $11 extra to buy the v2?
I have both v1 and v2 too. The v1, FC mount screws in 20x20, the v2 is in 30x30 😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is probably the most "premium" review since the Geprc Mark 5 some time back. Flyfish is gonna make a lot of sales from this video.
Take a look at the O3 DeadCat version of the MK5. It's basically this frame, but without the unnecessary bling Flyfish added. They also sacrificed weight for the dead cat layout.
MK5 - 158g
MK5X O3 - 156.1g
MK5D O3 - 197.0g
@@VulpeculaJoy I have 2 MK5D's, and it's probably not T700 carbon fiber.
I was kinda sold at the hex-shaped retention in the frame for the standoffs. Top shelf!
The deadcat, with O3 and no gopro is an amazing combo!
i still dont get why o3 quad "needs" gopro unless you are filming for hollywood 🙄🤪
It was a very intuitive, smooth build, with very snappy looking 3D prints but I already have a trio of heavyweight girls.
In the beginning, a heavier more durable quad is good but sometimes raw power is fun too 😁
Great review JB.
Velcro tape on the batteries and the top plate of the frame. Your ejecting battery days will be over. Then just use a kevlar battery strap.

Haha. Love the twist at the end! Thanks for the honest reviews
Awesome assembly and review, Joshua! 😃
You should definitely build it!!!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I'd build it. Love the design and thoughtful layout. The XT 60 mounted is a bonus.
Yes.. I'd use your link if I do buy it.
How did you mount the capacitor with the wires going to the back + vtx.

I love how durable it is but I don't really care about the weight. For me it's almost perfect except for how crammed it gets in the back.

Do you know why it's hard to apply much torque with these tools while screwing stuff in? It's so you don't strip it.
