Hi,

I recently bought a ifloght A75 HD and was wondering what everyone here would recommend as the best DJI whoop frame that's 75mm or smaller? I wanted a good indoor dji quad to practice some indoor freestyle. The A75 seemed like the closest I could find. Perhaps you will tell me it can't be done and I need to go analog which I might do but figured I'd check.

Thanks!

A75 HD looks like a decent choice to me. You are not happy with it?

There are not many frames of this size that are designed to take a Caddx Vista. There is the GEPRC Thinking P16 but I fail to see how it would be better than the one you already bought.

Interesting. I haven't flown the A75 yet. Just wanted to see if there's anything else out there. The advantage of the P16 is its $20 cheaper and 4grams lighter. I'm planning on replacing the iflight antenna with a similar whip style one which will make it the same weight.

The AIO on the iflight can handle 20amps and 4S so gives ke an option to try that if I want more juice.

Maybe it's just not possible to get the weight low enough with a vista for freestyle tricks indoors (that's really what I want to do. Have something I can practice tricks indoors with)

If you must have HD for indoor freestyle, you are right it probably isn't going to go well with a vista onboard. Andrew Ciotti recently did a bunch of live streams about exactly what you are after, but he is using a walksnail 1s setup. At the end of the day for 75mm and smaller indoors, you really can't beat analog. My favorite indoor freestyle setup by a long shot is my 65mm with beta frame, hm 1s aio, runcam nano 3, 30000kv 0702, with biblade 1610 and 1s300. My next closest is a 75mm with 0802 25000kv on gemfan biblades, but it's not even close indoors Tbh. The 19gm dry weight of the 65 is simply unmatched when it comes to ripping under 8' ceilings. You're not going to come close to that weight with a walksnail 1s vtx, let alone a vista.

DJI freestyle?! Uh...

I bought one........ only proved what I already "knew", its too heavy for decent indoor freestyle, in fact its too heavy, PERIOD. "Maybe" a naked Vista equipped quad pared to the bone might be OK, but then you face all the risks of losing the heat sinking.

Not one of my better ideas, buying one.

I now run a Moblite7 (with Meteor 75 frame), and a Mobula 6 in a Meteor 75 frame, both ELRS/HDZero for indoors/low wind garden. And a Firefly 1.6 HDZero for garden (run bare propped, not tried the guards).

ALL infinitely better. (but no consolation if limited to DJI).

Thanks for the info. Too bad. I'm wondering if I should have just invested in a midrange analog goggles. There are just too many options and some are quite pricey. Plus it's more gear I need to store and lug around.
