JB!!! Thanks a million brother!!! It was an awesome experience meeting you guys! Real stand up gentlemen!!! Thank you for everything and what a blast!!!👍👍👍
I built a few quads for top speed. My fastest quad did about the same, around 160mph, but I used the holybro F7 55A stack, and the same APC props on Ledrib’s 2650KV motors. I also notice the frame will make a massive difference in top speed. You’ll need a hyper light, and aerodynamic frame to accomplish 150 - 160mph.
Imagine being that financially stable that you can build a expensive drone, ship it to someone to fly around, and to then not even bother putting a note with it or a name. Meanwhile I'm here with my Eachine EV100...
Right I saved up for a wizard 220s and the 4 in 1 esc caught fire first take off now I'm left with nothing haha and I've even lost my job because of all this stuff going on

That was hypothetically screaming fast! Flies really well, ie. surprisingly stable and locked in. She's quick, agile, and looks like a ton of fun. Thanks for the vid!
So cool, I love the whole "sleeper" feel of it. Like pulling up in a normal car with "secret sauce" under the hood. It's surprisingly smooth. I just can't get over the 2700kv at 6s. I built a race rig yema frame and absolutely love it with 1 exception; bottom mount battery.
A note on how fast the quad changes direction is the low polar moment of inertia. With so much of the mass concentrated near the center of mass and center of gravity, a change in any direction does not require a lot of force (or moment). Very cool build!
Steele is one of the best quad guys out there. It is amazing to watch him fly. I've watched endless hours of RotoRiot as well. Thanks Bardwell, for all the great videos.
Nice little workshop you got there. I like it. As for the drone, I cannot believe that something that small can go that fast and still be controlled with a transmitter. That's crazy. Even the US military is using drones like this and has plans to have the drone system in every soldier's kit. Imagine the lives that can be saved if the individual soldier knows exactly what he/she is going into? That's awesome.
well, I'm doing that since my second quad about four years ago haha. Never understood why you would want these huge massive freestyle frames. They're just so unnecessarily heavy and big with no positives. Even on race rigs I always find a place for the GoPro.
@@Blockbuster2033 they're durable and their weight makes them smoother I guess? all i know is durability = confidence and confidence = better and more risky tricks
I used to fly 5S on 2600 kv F40 Pro V2 motors. Usually with a throttle cap of around 80% on the Taranis. Any more than that and most props would flutter at full throttle. At 80%, most props would flutter at full throttle when the battery was fresh. I did try 6S once. I did a punch out, and the Racekraft 5051 props made a terrifying noise. I let off the throttle, and it was fine for a few seconds, then Betaflight rebooted. I never tried 6S 2600 kv again. My build wasn't all that different than what you're flying, except the parts were almost 3 years old now! It looks like a fun build. Everything has come a long, long way since I tried this!
Never thought it would be such a big deal to go over 100Kph. Regulations in the US are harsh. I'm in the EU with a build doing almost 200Kph with flight times going upto 15 minutes... The only limiting factor I have is battery as I have is the 6s 75C Tattu R-line as battery shipping is a huge pain in my country.
You sounded like a giddy school girl when you were talking about that first quad, and then when you got that second one given to you, you were like a naughty school boy playing with matches. That does look like a beast and dangerous, and of course so much fun.
Yea I run freestyle quads like this. W/ a Super 💪🏽strong 4-1 ESC. Big Capacitor, and premium Motors like the F80Pro 2200kv&2500kv... MCK 2100kv 3.0v. Etc. My freestyle quads go illegally fast, 130- 160mph range for sure
I'm confused again, doesn't everyones copter go this fast? I'm using the same props, F80's and 6s. Looks like he's also using the same frame too :) AWESOME !!!!
What a guy, that's awesome. Let Anonymous Guy know your viewers and fans thank him as well for the opportunity to watch this. I hope all is well in these crazy times Joshua!
Wow I saw thebamps going upwards of 140amps on those punch outs! Nice. I think I'll be picking up one of those 4n1' to go in a 7 or 10" thx mystery man lol.
Can you tell me what set up you had lol.....I couldn't imagine hitting those types of speeds and I would love to whiz by my girlfriend at 2mph and pop out to 100 in 3/4s of a second lmao
@@scu-dub my main race setup is the Flightone arc one frame (or Five33 switchback) my 30x30 stacks are all Flightone Revoltosd(running FalcoX firmware) Hobbywing 60a 4n1 esc my 20x20 stacks are Flightone Millivoltosd and Hobbywing 40a 4n1 esc. Motors are hyperlite 2207.5 1922kv running 6s with no throttle cap. Tbs unify pro vtx and runcam racer 3 Fpv cam with crossfire for the rx. Weight of the arc one before Lipo is 282grams and an infinity 1300 6s from pyroflip is 205grams or the 1150 and it weighs about 190g. The switchback builds have the same components but weigh about 15-25g less. The arc one tho is an absolute tank. In the last 20 months with them I have yet to break any carbon. I’ve had stacks ripped out in mid air crashes at multigp races and motors ripped off the arms and esc and still the frame laughed it off and survived. Lol. One race last December had a bad mid air where 3 motors completely ripped off the arms and one the motor base was still there but the stator and bell were never found, the fc was ripped out and I found it about 50 foot from the quad. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Haven’t really put the switchback thru that hell yet but it feels almost as strong as the arc. Both awesome frames. Now my freestyle setup is similar, same electronics but use a Flightone dolphin 1 frame or the Skitzo nova frame.
That is not a cheap quad you got there - but wow, it is nice! So crazy when you can fly from one end of your property to the other in a mere second or so! Also i did get a good laugh at your opening "FAA" duck tape on you r head... good stuff!
I bought that damn tmotor f55a esc. It fried immediately on the bench during a motor tabs test at like 5% throttle. After a little haggling, I finally got tmotor to send me another one. It fried too after 3 seconds of hovering. The big protection diode failed short. I tried to get tmotor to send me a third one, and they suggested that i fix it myself, which was frustrating, but i did. I put a new diode on it, and then it fried 3 of the 4 escs after about 6 seconds of hovering. I swapped it out for the hobbywing xrotor esc with similar specs that vanover likes, and the quad flew fine and is still flying. I suggest using the hobbywing xrotor esc.
6s is really great. I built a 5 inch recently with 2100kv and it's really fast. I can't even imagine 2700kv. I don't have a gps but I cover 150 yards in a couple of seconds and the sound is amazing. It makes children cry. Now I have to figure a way to measure its speed. Maybe off video and a measurement. 6s lasts longer than we're used to also (those who fly 4s), because higher voltage dc is generally more efficient for a given power output.
@@PhantomFPV thank you sir. i ordered some but not arriving til may 11th so right now i have a 25v on there. seems to be holding up for now but it's only 35a tekko32 esc ... posted a couple 6s vids w xing motors . loving 6s high kv. I have demon motors On the way for tmotor 45a esc ah yeaaaa
CozziFPV very nice! Headed over to your page now to check it out. Over time with hard punch outs the wire between the cap and ESC will fail and completely burn up. Something to keep an eye on. The second it goes, your electronics will suffer on hard pitches.
I just finished this build. I'm a bit nervous to put Phantom's Pids in as the build is a bit different. Its working fine don't want to screw it up. What do you think load his configuration in the cli tab or just wing it. LOL
@@gonun69 It's even more than that because it's 6S. The peak values shown on the OSD for the 10:36 run were 22.7V @ 191.3A which is over 4.3kW - That's just a snapshot from that frame of the OSD so it could have hit a higher instantaneous peak!
@Joshua you said the ESC would smoke and you'd need to replace it ... could you elaborate on this? Is it because this ESC does not handle enough amps, is it from larger KV motors, staying on throttle to long, because they usually break when crashing and at this speed you're likely to crash hard, some other reason, etc.? It will be helpful to understand so I can keep my repair costs down. :)
Hi Joshua, it was me that sent you the quad by mistake. I meant to send it to myself. I will PM you my address so you can send it back to his rightful owner, me. LOL, crossing fingers this works :o)
Watch the view when he is flying in this video. You wanna see that, or have a view that is almost clear as day? I just recently got into this stuff myself, probably wouldn't have done so if not for the DJI/Vista view. Not really into making videos, just wanted to be like a bird.
@@lfcglen1967 You worded it a bit better than me, but yeah. And if you're also going all new equipment, the price difference isn't that much compared to the higher end products from others.
That’s what I did with my first 5inch build. Built a race quad I also freestyle with only down side is I have camera angle so high coz I like to freestyle plus do power runs. Running 1950k at 6s
Early in my quad learning days I put a 6S on some 2450kv motors. Umm there was a fire. ESC (4in1), F/C, and VTX went up in smoke. The frame was damaged by the heat. And it smelled bad. Lesson learned. I now prefer individual ESCs. I rebuilt the quad. And 1750kv motors on my 6S quads.
Do you have to get permit to fly fpv drone in us and can just fly in open space but away from crowd or theres a designated place to fly fpv drone ?? thanks man
DUDE I love what you’ve done ! Your insane like me ! Haha I have a RC car that had a 3600vk motor 6 pole it was a 3s motor brushless , upgrades to a ZTW comp motor 6s / 8s cable depending on gearing etc. Well I’ve only used it on 6s and gone well over 120mph!! The rush on a RC car going that fast it’s FUN! And my next big job is a drone !! And since you basically done what I wanted I was wondering do you have a gofund me or something with instructions for all the parts used to build this beast!!

@@gonun69 It's even more than that because it's 6S. The peak values shown on the OSD for the 10:36 run were 22.7V @ 191.3A which is over 4.3kW - That's just a snapshot from that frame of the OSD so it could have hit a higher instantaneous peak!
@@yngndrw. I somehow read the wrong number and didn't realise that 10 Volt us way to low for 6S lol. Guess it's time to get some sleep
"OhMaGawd how fast is it going? I can't see!"
Yeah right :P
It is 1st April isn't it? 🤣 Loving the shoots of the sky.
2:06 LOL! I would build this JUST for the sound it makes 👌👍👊🤘🌭
P.S. Stingy is killing it with the camera tracking during this flight yo! 🤯👍
If you didn’t fly around your house so much the FAA wouldn’t have found you so easily 😂😂😂
Great vid. Thanks JB.
Loved it! Great job on the opening!
LOL that is awesome, I bet the most challenging part is not exceeding the 400ft ceiling, it seems like it could get that high real quick.
Really funny Bardwell...with the ducttape
@Joshua you said the ESC would smoke and you'd need to replace it ... could you elaborate on this? Is it because this ESC does not handle enough amps, is it from larger KV motors, staying on throttle to long, because they usually break when crashing and at this speed you're likely to crash hard, some other reason, etc.? It will be helpful to understand so I can keep my repair costs down. :)
Oh Bardwell your're such a rebel lol... awesome vid keep em coming!
Hi Joshua, it was me that sent you the quad by mistake. I meant to send it to myself. I will PM you my address so you can send it back to his rightful owner, me.
LOL, crossing fingers this works :o)
Joshua, I'm going to build my first quad. Should I go for a dji set up? Worth the extra money?
Watch the view when he is flying in this video. You wanna see that, or have a view that is almost clear as day? I just recently got into this stuff myself, probably wouldn't have done so if not for the DJI/Vista view. Not really into making videos, just wanted to be like a bird.
@@coolhanddruid yea thats what I'm looking for too, the flying experience rather than making videos.
@@lfcglen1967 You worded it a bit better than me, but yeah. And if you're also going all new equipment, the price difference isn't that much compared to the higher end products from others.
@@coolhanddruid Thanks for your help!
@@coolhanddruid well 400mw against 1.2w jokes on you
oh my gosh i cant wait to get this far and fly like this i am getting better and better now thanks to you
Well just hearing your quad on my cellphone... Because it's impossível to see anything...
😂
I have 3 of those ESCs, they are one of a kind...👍🏻🍻👊🏻
Awesome! Which lipo did you use? Like how much mAh und weight? Which APCs?
Lipo was RDQ 6S 1250 mAh. APC prop link is in the description.
The intro 😂
That’s what I did with my first 5inch build. Built a race quad I also freestyle with only down side is I have camera angle so high coz I like to freestyle plus do power runs. Running 1950k at 6s
I knew I recognized his voice lol what up Phantom!!
Haha! What up brother!!! Dead give a way!
@@PhantomFPV thought it was you, then saw the X-lite transmitter and was like ih yeah its Phantom lol so lucky and skilled pilot as well
Matt Wilson haha!!! Dang Matt! You got them skills too brotha! Keep with it!!!
during installation, do dualmono in the sound settings // and then in stereo you’re in my right speaker and another pilot in the left speaker)
I about peed myself laughing so hard. Love your humor! I didn’t fly 500 feet in the air either.
126 mph! Daaammn!
Early in my quad learning days I put a 6S on some 2450kv motors. Umm there was a fire. ESC (4in1), F/C, and VTX went up in smoke. The frame was damaged by the heat. And it smelled bad. Lesson learned. I now prefer individual ESCs. I rebuilt the quad. And 1750kv motors on my 6S quads.
Thing sounds like a demonic elk. Love it.
Do you have to get permit to fly fpv drone in us and can just fly in open space but away from crowd or theres a designated place to fly fpv drone ?? thanks man
I have a 5 inch merica with t motor 55 amp 4 in 1 with t motor F80 1900 kv. Now that’s a fun beast to fly!
Got the same engine under the hood on my 6s apex build. Went with the t-motor f60 pro III 1750’s though.
Totally cool that you got jazzed up about that.
DUDE I love what you’ve done !
Your insane like me ! Haha I have a RC car that had a 3600vk motor 6 pole it was a 3s motor brushless , upgrades to a ZTW comp motor 6s / 8s cable depending on gearing etc.
Well I’ve only used it on 6s and gone well over 120mph!! The rush on a RC car going that fast it’s FUN!
And my next big job is a drone !! And since you basically done what I wanted I was wondering do you have a gofund me or something with instructions for all the parts used to build this beast!!
lol, the sound of the thing, great vid. You are an amazing pilot. Just ordered a Eachine Novice-II 1-2S to dip my toe into fpv, will I be able to learn to fly fpv with an Eachine Novice II?
You could have used masking tape! That duct tape had to leave a mark. Lol
the tmotor 2700kv pushes 51amp on 4s according to site. surprised thats esc of choice for 2s over voltage.
