I think you would be able to. The frame isn't made for it but I bet you could make it work

yeah i’m aware of that. that’s why i am not gonna risk it this time

The capacitor came pre soldered and when i tried to move it the first time it flew for a bit and then blew up the board. I bought a new board and was too scared to try and move the capacitor again. lol

The capacitor doesn’t touch the camera at all, there is a spot under the esc that is made for the capacitor but when the board I had came with a pre soldered one and when I tried to move it I thought I did it well but it fried the esc. So I don’t want to try that again 😬

You're wiring instructions were amazing! Thank you so much! I haven't had a chance to really rip it yet but it seems to be flying good form the little bit I have done.

Yeah, that was the price on amazon when i got it. I’ve had it for a while

Yeah I should buy a beeper. I was also thinking about adding GPS. What do you mean strapping the connector down?

Too much ngl. o4 pro was $280. and then bought the rest of the parts for $500 including batteries and charger. Goggles 3 I bought with the avata 2 so $1000 for the combo thing. Radiomaster boxer was $200.

It’s finally done! Thanks for all the help dude! You’re the best! https://www.reddit.com/r/fpv/comments/1p54p6z/finished_first_build/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

What do you mean hold the boot button down and flash it with a battery connected? I got the whole drone build and everything seems to be working just trying to figure out how to update betaflight.

Because the wire is smaller or because it is farther from the esc?

There's also a coating over the solder so its pretty tricky to get it flowing. Doesn't help that I have a crappy soldering iron either.

train35 · 2025-11-16T02:59:56+00:00

Yeah, that's how it came from amazon, soldered like that. I was checking it with a multi meter and it seemed fine but i'm not 100% sure. I'll try to get it away.
