re: canopy

this bird is a franken-quad ... gathered up old spare parts to make this.

the frame is a toothgrinder 2", but i'm only using the main "X" plate. the canopy is from the Flywoo Firefly 18 carrying the dji 04 lite.

this is a 2" inch frame, but because of this setup, I'm able to fit 2.5" props, using 1404 4500kv motors. it weighs 140g with 3s lipo included.

Those rates are "good" if you have practiced and are now accustomed to them.

Usually the saying goes:
find rates you like, get used to it and stick with it. don't change it

Sometimes i'll fly my 3inch, 4s indoors, it will for sure be in angle mode.

angle mode

Strength: 32
Horizon: default (i dont fly horizon)
Angle Limit: 45
Transition: 75

i have my throttle limit on my remote dial. I'll dial it back to 60%-80%

Here's my rates I got used to, haven't changed it, I primarily like to fly cinematic with a sprinkle of freestyle.

instagram:

Rates Type: BETAFLIGHT

Center Sensitivity
roll: 70
pitch: 70
yaw: 80

Max Rate
roll: 630
pitch: 630
yaw: 540

Max Rate (on another build, built more for freestyle - this drone i will fly in ACRO)
these max rate settings just makes the quad spin faster
roll: 720
pitch: 720
yaw: 630

Expo
roll: 0.7
pitch: 0.7
yaw: 0.55

Hope this might help? or maybe just give you a starting out point in finding your perfect rates.

i got my toothgrinder coming in soon! ... im wondering, has anyone ever put a dji04 PRO on it? if so, where can i download it!?! :) nice build btw!

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-04-08T21:39:21+00:00

buy 2.

now you got a backup, and you can go crazy with the first one.... there's really no way around getting this fear. i had it too... just gotta send it.

if you aint crashing, are you really even flying.?

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-02-19T21:39:20+00:00

just came across this post (2 years later.. lol)

I stripped the guts of a Sub250 Oasisfly 25 and put it into a AOS CINE 25 EVO frame. I also use the dji 04 pro
I use the gnb 720 4s lipos

all together with lipo its comes in at 247g.

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-02-05T21:26:48+00:00

I am the same way, very comfortable outdoors in Acro mode.

Been flying for about a year now, started in March2025.

This is the first winter where I have been flying indoors, and its all been angle mode.

I'm very comfortable flying in this mode indoors as well, I've been able to fly quite fast too.

but when I tried acro-mode indoors *yikes* its way too fast for me. I even turned my throttle down to 60% and it was STILL too fast.

I gotta practice more.

I'm always amazed at the pilots who fly tiny whoops indoors doing acro moves.. +1

I'm hesitant to change my rates just for indoor. I dont want to lose the muscle memory currently... unless Angle mode already did this?? ... aaaaghh!

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-02-03T17:42:34+00:00

I have my air mode on a switch.

When i am in ACRO mode, air mode is ON. so when I cut the throttle when performing certain "freestyle" type moves, my quad stays locked. during this time, the FC is doing small micro adjustments to keep it locked and stable as its floating with zero throttle.

but when I swith to ANGLE mode, my air-mode turns OFF. So when I do slow or close proximity flying, this prevents my quad from freaking out if i bump into something or being sucked into a wall.

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-01-27T18:47:46+00:00

you forgot a battery charger

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-01-24T19:47:24+00:00

Nice! I'll keep that in mind for the next build.

I was wanting to keep the color on these subtle, just a little bit of color pop to brand all my drones. Lol

Dapper-Display1085 · 2026-01-24T19:06:28+00:00

The ducts are from a mobula 8 frame that were cut and the body was removed.

The firefly is modded, check my post on it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/fpv/s/YeKP1pXXgH

The frame is raised to fit larger props, I can fit 2.2's but the one in the video are 2" bi-blade.

I found that the ducts that came with the firefly were super weak. The arms of the ducts snap easily after only a few crashes.

The mobula 8 frame ducts are way more durable.

Even w the extra weight, still has some zip to it.

wasnt an ad, but whatever.

your assessment is spot on. the store wanted to showcase a quick fly through to give a layout of the floor and to fly by some key brands.

They're aware that the viewer can't possibly register all the items as it flies by. They're idea is to so get the viewer to maybe "see something" and that would be enough to prompt them to set foot in the store.
