pls ignore the following word jumble, its for the algorithm :D
In this video I build an FPV Cinewhoop for the First time, like Joshua Bardwell, Chris Rosser, UAVfutures, MrSteele, NurkFPV, or Dronecamps would teach. I struggle through such as Chase Momo, Brodie Reed, Captain Vannover(in the past) or Potato Jet might've. Follow my FPV journey building new drones, crashing into bandos, and doing flowy freestyle
Great video that exposes just about every learning curve that could be had while building your first FPV drone, keep up the good work
It's pretty hard ain't it!
@@CalebTyler sure is at first. I think I got lucky on my first build and didn't let that magic smoke out 🤣. You've got a new follower. Keep it up.
please keep making content I know you'll have a huge sub count in no time! The effort you put into this really shows, you're informative, enthusiastic, and funny
@@ponder6 Thanks mate!
Congrats on building your first drone, mate! Definitely impressive doing a cinewhoop first.
Also congrats on hitting 500 subs ;)
Thanks a ton!
Dude so good! Love the video, bloody creative and it's so epic to watch ✌
Thanks mate! Glad you liked it! BTW I'd love to chat about RUclips + fpv if you have time.
Dude, GREAT JOB. I'm impressed actually!
Thanks!
This is peak cinema 🔥 keep making drone videos !
@@MozzarellaRR More coming!
I’m so happy for you I started smiling when you plugged it in and it work success
Love the spirit. Keep on man!
Great job dude! Love the video. I'm looking to build my first quad sometime soon, just need to finish gathering the tools and parts needed.
Good luck!
Great job! You should be very proud of yourself!
Thank you!
Very impressed! Not only in your perseverance, but great video over all! Building drones is not for the faint of heart, but is so rewarding! You went through every challenge in one week that most spread out over months.
Absolutely!
Thank you so much! This was a great video as I am looking into FPV drones (I am a complete beginner) on top of that, the editing skills are absolutely incredible! I’m wishing the best of luck for your channel as it clearly has massive potential!😆
Awesome, thank you!
This is amazing for your first built FPV drone! I am working on my robotics and building stuff for right now so i am not that experienced, but this is so cool!
Appreciate it!
great backing music choices- fabulous video Caleb
@@martyz.3692 Thank you!
Caint wait to build mine🙏
underrated! thinking abt going back to fpv myself😅😅
Go for it!
sick video dude, i have a cinelog 35v2 as well, although i bought it prebuilt, didnt feel bothered to build it even after doing multiple 5" builds ahaha. so kudos to you for doing one as your first build! hope to see more vids from you
More coming soonish. haha
Honestly my man you're living the dream. Challenging yourself with a new project, making a good video on it, pros cons and everything. Keep it up!
That's the plan!
you and chase momo have got to be my favourite fpv creators
Thanks mate! Means a lot.
@@CalebTyler np bro this video was 🔥
Great video Caleb! Keep on making things. Great content and videography.
Thanks mate!
Great way of story telling. Watched the entire video even though I do not want to build an FPV. You earned a new subscriber!
Glad you enjoyed!
Big time wow, great video , i learn so much from this , thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
you are a true champion...i'm also learning fpv and having hell is bind and fly and here you are building it...kudos and good luc kmy fren
Haha, good luck with BnF!
Awesome production quality! Good job man!
Glad you liked it!
Good job man! This was your best video yet!
@@sabellab7298 Thanks! It only took longer to edit than the actual build... Lol
@@CalebTylerthat’s so real 🤣 editing and remembering to record takes the longest 💀
Mate! Love the dedication, effort, editing! Hope to see more content
Definitely more to come!
Good job dear. Thanks for sharing 😊
Welcome 😊
Nice effort man. amazing video. Small tip for any beginner, the quad size depends on the prop size, which depends on your motor size and Amp draw which depends on ur esc and FC.
So first, decide which frame u want, then look for which motors and props fit that frame as the mounting holes are different for each size, then the ESC and the FC.
Thanks for sharing
This is so underrated, most channels dont talk about the pains of building a quad. Love the content, keep it up!
Thanks! Trying to bring something new to the table.
Awesome video Caleb! I hope you stick with the hobby it's alot of fun and gets less frustrating the more experience you gain with building! :) I subbed to keep up with your progress
Thanks mate! It's been five months, so I've improved a ton. More vids otw.
@@CalebTyler outstanding!
Man, that is not something everybody would not hesitate to get into. Congratulations that video proves so many things that you are capable of that you have never thought of.
Most under rated drone RUclipsr
Thanks mate, means a lot!
I just found this guy and I am amazed by his quality of video.
I checked sub count and was super super surprised I was excepting 80k minimum
@@JamazingJacob We'll get there eventually!
@@CalebTyler Dont give up Ur the best👍
You just earned a sub! Great video!
Awesome, thank you!
How do you only have 476 subs and THIS QUALITY YOU SHOULD HAVE 10 MILLION
We'll get there one day! I did just get 400 subs from this video alone.
@@CalebTyler That one day will be very soon trust me
Great vid keep it going
Appreciate it!
Amazing video, deserves way more than 79 subs. I just subed!
Haha, thanks for that!
1 tipfor starter.. never get yourself AIO... better start with stack FC ESC.. easier to solder mostly comes with large pad and solderlress vtx, tx connector
@@DanialADHOfficial Agreed
I completely understand your frustration. I built enough RC helicopters to learn that I suck at soldering and that I should stick to BnF with my drones.
nice video bro! u have good editingg skills.
Thanks!
awesome vid man , welcome to the hobby enjoy fpv mate !
Thanks, I will!
0:06
That is still my only problem, i had to start over on battery connectors with a new esc :(
underrated
good job! keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Cool video, Aloha from Hawaii.
I will fly one day!
I just build my first Drone too! Great Video!
Have fun!
Yo ! Sick video ⚡⚡⚡
Thanks !
really good stuff dude, I built my first quad for only 200$ despite people telling me to get prebuilt because it was so time consuming and difficult to build one, but it paid off because I now know all the ins and outs, competely worth teh learning curve.
Definitely, I built a 5" later on and it made it a lot easier.
Dude u're so good! Love this video! From Indonesia..
Thanks!
@@CalebTyler ur welcome dude..
Good video. You are right about the cinewhoops. If I get someone new into the hobby and they want to build a cinewhoop as their first one, yeah I'll try everything to keep them away from it. Not only is an AIO (as you noticed) not the best thing, a CineWhoop is also just not the most fun drone to fly. When I started I wanted to have fun, so I built a 5". Now I want long range, so I built an aiplane. A cinewhoop is good when you want to have indoor footage that can be used as a job or smth. But why the hell fly outside with it or try to do things it was not designed for?!? My best recommendation for a beginner is a 3.5" Freestyle. Take the Volador 3.5" Frame for example, I want this so bad but rn I don't want to buy another Walksnail Kit. Next thing. You use DJI, I use Walksnail, many people use Analog and a few HD0. The last 3 are great. DJI is dog s h i t. It's expensive and won't let you fly with other systems. I can easily use analog or hdzero with walksnail, and most modern Analog goggles can use walksnail and hdzero, and vise verca. DJI only lets in analog in the V2 goggles, which aren't produced anymore. So I'd get analog if I was starting new, but Walksnail is the next best thing. HD0 personally doesn't turn me on, but it sure is a great option! Now for some positive things. You watch bardwell, which is the best thing to do. I see many people stick to someone like Brodie Reed. No offense but he doesn't really talk that good stuff. Next. You informed yourself. Like with the prop thing: You went onto reddit and searched for the problem. Not spam any dc's full... You mentioned linux doesn't have the DJI activation app, and I think informing yourself and getting things done by yourself comes from something like linux. All in all cool Video, hope to see some more content, but please keep it in a style like this. Again, no offense, but someone like chase momo, nah that's not really it. Greetings from your FPV mates in Germany
@@tiefseetaucherrwow man! Appreciate the comment!
Good job man 🤝
Thanks ✌
Great vid buddy. I feel your pain. The first drone i built was cursed too
Haha! My second build was waay better.
You’ve gotten another sub! This video was amazing, your constant trial and error and you showing us how you resolved it really worked in the video. I’ll follow your advice and not buy a cinewhoop build 😂
Thanks, definitely appreciate it!
Good job dude. Building a drone is hard, especially the first one.
Sure is!
congrats! we've all been there!
Thank you very much! thanks for popping in, love your stuff :D
Seems like a larger drone would be easier to build since it wouldn’t be so fiddly. Impressive how you stayed with it! The scenery there is very nice.
Yes definitely, I built a 5" not long ago and it was 48 times easier😎
RESPECT.
Most of your issues came from having little soldering experience. Once you have that down a lot less can go wrong. Nice find with the blades being on upside down.
@@fawkyooo7377 Yes, next drone I built was a walk in the park!
Bro gonna get big soon
a little bit of advice dont set the soldering iron to max. maybe 10 degrees above what ever the solder is rated for and clean off the tip as much as possible.
but also make sure the tip is tinned as this is what makes it melt the solder faster.
What's wrong with max? my soldering iron can only get to 400 celsius (752 fahrenheit) and I hear people go higher that.
i really enjoyed your video.
Thank you!
Great vid, man! Watching this while I fly in the sim lol. Your soldering issues are probably because of that iron. I had that same one and had a bunch of issues with it.
@@DanielJohnFPV What iron do you recommend? JB seemed to like this one. (Sequre D60B)
Having just built my first 5 inch quad I understand your struggles
Congrats mate! What did you build?
@@CalebTyler built on a tbs source one v5 frame with a speedy bee v4 stack and tmotor velox 2207 1750kv motors
my first cinewhoop was hell to, but figured it. well done. make sure you don't go under 3.5volt per cell, you properly already know by know:) you got urself another sub;)
My poor batteries are begging for death, lol.
@@CalebTyler been there myself
Yo Caleb lets go haha. Just got my first cinewhoop (pre built) and the AIO had a faulty esc after my first flight 🥲 I returned it but I thought about building my own cine whoop but maybe not after this haha
Yeah I'll also stick to BindNFlys after this
🙃
I need some tips, I am 13 years old and new to this like you but I researched, made a list of all my items and I will use a pull configuration on the cinewhoop frame which is Cloud Reptile v2 frame.
I would highly recommend building a 5" quad. It will be a whole lot easier, still tricky but much easier than a cinewhoop.
Dude, keep going man we have all felt your pain. 😂
Always!
W bro👌
As soon as you finally get it where you can try it out (rain)
Haven’t seen it yet, but if it flies in the end, big respect from me. I build my first FPV drone have a year ago and decided to build a 5” freestyle, because it’s much easier. But building a cinewhoop as a first drone is impressive. And in this case I’m for sure, cause I have Cinelog 35 too.
After seeing the video, all my thoughts are right, but well done. And your endurance is impressive. By the way, ELRS ist that complicated to set up at all. I use ELRS too, but a friend of mine who uses Crossfire has way more problems and it’s much more difficult to setup. BTW nice Video 👍
It was a living nightmare figuring it all out! I've since built a 5" and wow it it's easier!
I agree, ELRS ain't that bad. Everyone says it's a 'big learning curve' but it appears to be getting easier every update, like actual bind buttons, etc.. And Crossfire, didn't know it was that bad! It's expensive too🤑
@@CalebTyler Nice
@@CalebTyler BTW keep up, your storytelling in this video was amazing.
i have the same transmiter and IT WAS PAIN TO SET UP
I would try to make the same 1 but it looks to painful and way to hard without a tutorial.
Agreed. I found some videos of people fixing it, reviewing etc, and analyzed every second of them. lol
I have the same drone. Top plate breaks extremely easy. Broke mine twice, it wasn't even from a height, fall from 2 meters on a grass. Next time it breaks, I'm moving to a different cinewhoop. Extremely difficult to repair and replace the frame...
Hmm, I've had some pretty big crashes with it and I've only had problems with the prop guards.
either it is just me or that's a chunky battery. could be why you are at high throttle.
lighter battery can sometimes mean longer flight too as bigger can be heavy.
It was on the large side, but with props on the right way I'm getting 6 to 7 minute flight times and hovering at around 20% percent throttle.
great bro
btw which radio u r using?
Jumper T-Lite in this vid, but it stopped working and I now use the Radio Master Boxer.
9:30, or just cut the uart 2 wire if you don't use the dji controller.
I'd recommend getting a bigger soldering iron tip and some flux in a tube, that works well for me.
Good job on the build and enjoy the hobby, fly safe!
Yeah I saw people saying that, but I didn't want to cut out the possibility of using the DJI controller. I have a larger soldering tip now. Thanks for the comment!
GREAT ❤❤❤
Thanks!
W CHANNEL
Dude your editing is on par with the pros
You think so?
@@CalebTyler I agree. You just got a sub
Nice vid
Appreciate it!
More than I was doing at your age lol good job man .
Thanks mate!
Nice job ! i used to build them myself aswell now i can't be bothered and just buy bnf quads
I feel ya!
I have a question. What contoller are u using??
Jumper T-Lite v2 in this video, but it stopped working so I now use the Radiomaster Boxer.
I felt a hint of fear with every gust of wind :)
This IS me a year ago! 😂 I built a 5inch quad a year ago and I couldn't get it to work for MONTHS. Same issues and everything... Great video!
@@GnuggetFPV For MONTHS huh? That's rough!!
Man.. I thought a day was long
@@CalebTyler It was one stupid problem in the failsafe for the reciever, the last part I checked and completely forgot about🤦♂. I got refunds on parts, so that was a large portion of the time. It wasn't that horrible😂.
@@drummerdoingstuff5020 Lol, the month was mostly waiting weeks for refunds🤣.
Ok I don't really want to build a drone but this was a lot of fun to watch
You said sabbath? Which day is it for you sir?! Lol great video
Saturday, true Sabbath of the Bible!
@@CalebTyler couldn't agree more!
@@IslandCreek you SDA?
@CalebTyler i am... but I am literally the only one in my family and area as far as I can tell.. with my family being pentecostal pastors lol 😆 true blacksheep
I had to relearn everything from reading the word myself and watching Walter Veith..
You should use flux with your solder.
I did. It was the one in a pen tho.
@@CalebTyler Oh. Hmm... Perhaps Amtech NC-559-V2-TF Tacky Flux 30CC. Promoted by Louis Rossmann. Computer board repairman. He puts it on, uses a heatgun to flow it, then solders. You can find his videos online.
His own store is out of stock. He warns "Amtech flux is sold from Deep River, Connecticut and made in the USA. So STOP BUYING IT FROM ASIA!! Inventec/Amtech DO NOT sell on Amazon and eBay!"
I'm not sure how he gets the flux off afterwards, unfortunately. :(
Dayum man, keep up with the great work! I would try to build a drone too but the part of buying 700$ goggles and a 250$ o3 unit is kinda too much for me lol
There are quite a few cheaper options, I'm working on a video building a cheap drone.
build pls the speedybee master 5 v2 with the air unit 03 pls
Why that frame?
@@CalebTyler the Frame is very Good for Freestyle und with the f7 fc is it easy to Flughafen
im getting the joshua bardwell kit tomorrow, ive practiced soldering, but im still scared... btw amazing video
The ESC in his kit has massive pads, you'll be fine.
@@CalebTyler oh great, I have been practicing without flux, and kinda weird solder, so when everything comes it should be ok, anyway any tips on tinning the wire?
@@WinWitWon JB has a good video on soldering. He references it in his video series for the kit you got.

@@CalebTyler ty
man you got lucky building a fpv drone in a span of a week😭. for me iv been building mine for 3 months and most of the time im ordering parts then actually flying the damn thing, i just blew up my flight controller today💀.
@@Tyler-kj8ss Sorry to hear that.
Elrs hurts my head lol, I decided I’m going with DJI remote, still gonna try again with elrs 😅
ELRS range just on 250mw beats DJI o3, my radio master boxer goes to 1,000 mW, so failsafe ain't a problem!
dude, please tell me ur using lithium ion rather than lipo, i saw ur power drop to less than 3v in a flight...
They're lipos. My batteries beg for death! Lol
@@CalebTyler lol, well I have one that tops all. Idk what the last dude did to this battery but it’s crying to be put down.
This is the 6s order
•---V
4.62V
2.90V
3.84V
1.31V
5.50V
😮Bro what! Three seconds away from blowing up!
@@CalebTyler ye, just checked it tonite. Was about to charge it lmao.
Dude, that's scary!
One question, how did your dji o3 cost 350$, its was maximum 250€ and now its even 200€
$350 Australian dollars. AUD is quite a bit weaker than USD.
@@CalebTyler ah okey now it makes sense
i binged so many tutorials before buying all the parts that i just got it working 1st try 😂
@@szymonzak6681 That's fortunate!
dudeee nice video . +1 subscriber
Appreciate it!
Total cost?
For the drone about $700 AUD. To buy it as a BnF would've been about $1,000
Great work! Loved watching the whole thing. Please don't get in the habit of shortening words though, I'm in college and it's so annoying. It's always better to put the onus on the speaker to speak well than the listener to try and figure out what you mean.
FC isn't egregious, just not used to it
noice
Seems like you had terrible solder wire, people recommend you get leaded 60/40 wire, but I have found great success with Weller lead free wire.
When it comes to soldering, you can have a cheap setup but you should never skimp on the tip and wire, buy genuine branded ones and your life should get easier
IDK, it was from TBS so I thought it'd be alright.
