I already have the Banggood 600TVL 1/4 1.8mm CMOS FPV 170 Degree Wide Angle Lens Camera paired with a FX MM213TL 5.8G 32CH 25mW Wireless Audio Video AV Transmitter Module, which I want to mount with the camera on the front of the new frame, the Tx DSST (Double Sided Sticky Taped) to the Micro Scisky 32bits Brushed Flight Control Board mounted centrally and the aerial sticking out the rear of the frame.
Can you see any issues with the above plan, as I think it should balance out OK and will probably be using hot glue to attach the camera on the front?
Cheers! The frame is really design to mount the FX797... with your setup you might be able to fit it in the middle, on top of FC somehow... but it might be a bit messy.. you could try to fit it in the front.. but I don't know how though because you want to avoid anything from blocking the ducts Posts: 91 Threads: 10 Likes Received: 84 in 45 posts Likes Given: 105 Joined: Aug 2016 Reputation: 2 Yep - I'll just have see how it all sits!

Using BG 8.5mm motors with Ladybird props, Micro Scisky and a 1S Nano-Tech 750mAh, AUW is 56g without the FPV system which I should have time to fit in the next few days...
It's a very stable and powerful unit with great punchout (for the weight) and is pretty quiet too.
Nice quality on the printout and no issues with the build!
Will post up some pics when finished...
Appreciated! • Posts: 5,319 Threads: 673 Likes Received: 3,155 in 1,743 posts Likes Given: 2,031 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 (22-Aug-2016, 08:10 PM)jimbo_wa Wrote: Thanks Oscar - I think that my FPV kit will fit fine!

Appreciated! 56g is light considering you are using 750mah battery thanks for letting me know you are having a good time with this frame! I spent quite a lot of work into the design and I am glad it's working! • Posts: 91 Threads: 10 Likes Received: 84 in 45 posts Likes Given: 105 Joined: Aug 2016 Reputation: 2 • Posts: 5,319 Threads: 673 Likes Received: 3,155 in 1,743 posts Likes Given: 2,031 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 VERY NICE! The camera seems to fit very well i like how you used the heatshrink tube as zip ties as well to hold the motors in the mounts Posts: 172 Threads: 21 Likes Received: 60 in 32 posts Likes Given: 56 Joined: Jun 2016 Reputation: 3 Ok so I want to build a whoop for the winter and I was wondering now much it would cost to build the whoopee vs the inductrix tiny whoop. The inductrix is $50 on amazon right now and a FPV cam and VTX is $30-$40. I have a spectrum TX so I don't need a different RX. What parts would go into building the Whoopee? • Posts: 5,319 Threads: 673 Likes Received: 3,155 in 1,743 posts Likes Given: 2,031 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 don't forget the upgrade motors, extra batteries.. I think it might be easier if you get the tiny whoop if you already own Spketrum TX for Whoopee parts check out my build logs in the first post. • Posts: 3 Threads: 0 Likes Received: 1 in 1 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Aug 2016 Reputation: 0 Hi Oscar, just maidend the whoop in the garage. Stock setup: F3, 797t and decased Spektrum sat. What a blast! The 380mAh battery came down pretty warm. The 600mAh, although quite big, seems more capable but haven't really tried it yet (only a minute or so). Thanks for making the Whoopee craze more affordable ;-)
I was wondering where you got the 1.6mm zip ties. Can't find them on BG or Aliexpress and local sites are out of stock. I will need more for a possible second build and future repairs. • Posts: 5,319 Threads: 673 Likes Received: 3,155 in 1,743 posts Likes Given: 2,031 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 (27-Aug-2016, 08:59 PM)Ludo Wrote: Hi Oscar, just maidend the whoop in the garage.

Sorted. Made a motor brace, lot of flex in the frame so doesn't like fast Chaoli motors. 4 plastic motor mounts and 3mm carbon square rod. ![[Image: image.jpg]](https://s21.postimg.org/5gmn8gnk3/image.jpg) ![[Image: image.jpg]](https://s21.postimg.org/rtudv9ohv/image.jpg) jpg images • |
