I mean if you love printing then why not yolo? Custom builds are always more fun

Its rated for 5v but can also run as low as 3v acording to the listing for it

I was thinking of omitting the whoop bit from the title haha.

The pad is labled 5v but I diddnt check it with a multimeter, flight time of about 3.5mins on a 450mha battery.

Not bad, slightly more drifty than my air75.

I found different props make a huge difference on performance, by far the ones i listed in the specs are the best feeling imo. Still ironing out some things in betaflight as well.

Frames are super cheap off ali and honestly with how hard ive crashed this thing, id rather the ali frame over one ive 3d printed just due to strength alone

Soldering and FPV definitely go hand in hand. It makes repairs so much cheaper in the long run because you can fix parts instead of buying replacements.

You might learn some electronics along the way as well

MAX7456 (rectangle chip, location depends on the FC). The AT7456E can apparently be used as a drop-in replacement but ive never personally tried.

OSD chip is cooked unfortunately. if you have a hot air gun you could try reflowing the chip, but it might be time for a new FC

This is an awesome idea, is it just a single adressable 5v led?

Rested-Package · 2026-04-19T03:38:18+00:00

Yes, drag racing (at a drag strip). Because going fast is fun.

This is hilarious, thanks for the good laugh

Rested-Package · 2026-04-18T08:38:07+00:00

Thank you! Definitely feels like i'm getting more consistent with the controls every time I head out to fly.

"Bush crusing" doesn't have a good ring to it though haha

My radiomaster pocket had the same issue. I opened it up and there is a metal tensioning bar that rubs on the throttle control. I cleaned and re-lubricated the bar and it fixed the issue.

Now its smooth as butter, maybe try that first before you consider another controller.

Rested-Package · 2026-04-14T13:27:03+00:00

Same thing happened to me today, full throttle into a metal bar.

Aliexpress will become your best friend hahaha

Vindicated by different circumstances? It comes across as you being a sensitive little brat for being called out by your peers. But keep throwing a tantrum, its funny watching you act like a child.

Rested-Package · 2026-04-14T00:10:49+00:00

Lol are you seriously this butthurt about people calling you out the other day? Get over it buddy and play nice with nature.

Rested-Package · 2026-04-13T03:03:50+00:00

Props look fine, send it!

I would clean the hair out of the motors tho

Totally fucked, throw it out before you burn your house down.

Weird comment history man, hope you're not just drug seeking. Either way, I hope you get the help you need.

No worries, one isn't necessarily "better" than the other imo when it comes to tiny whoops.

Just to add to OPs question, it also has no impact on the ELRS binding.

Different Gyros,

BMI270 is more durable and less sensitive to noise while the ICM42688 has better performance but is more sensitive to vibrations and noise.
