+Wes Crockett probably. But not until I test a few things first. Probably when I break it. :-)
You should check AndyRCs channel, he goes over how to fully set-up the transmitter with all the switches etc
+Parallel Realities I had a chance to play with it and figure it out yesterday and plan on making a dedicated video just to get people started. The way they did it is wacky. I did watch Andy's video too. He does a great job, I'm curious to see what people reaction will be to putting EVERYTHING into a single 45 minute video will be.
DroneRacer101 this will be .y first quad and I will be afraid to do all this stuff are there any tutorials
+The Unadvisedguy The only thing not in the manual you absolutely have to do is this. ruclips.net/video/g7a5vjEbadY/видео.html If you don't get a manual in yours let me know and I can send you the PDF. I want to do a new user setup video but haven't had time yet.
I had exactly the same problems. Manual was missing, radio setup was exactly the same as yours. Thanks for the video! It was very helpful.
Thanks for going over the aux switches so well, mine came the exact same and it was only thanks to your video I was able to set mine up correctly, as no others went into the detail I got out of your video.
Thanks a lot bro!
+Benjamin Harrison glad to help. I've actually gotten all the channels working since then and need to record an update.
@@SimRacer101 did you make that video by any chance? If so what’s it called? Thanks :)
i bought one last night. hopefully it turn out good as it is my first drone.
Just got mine today ,and this video helped me out helps..lookis like I’m gonna get a fly in this weekend for sure now... from mambo Parrot drone to this beast...wish me luck..cheers
You can turn on to 10 channels from 6 channels, it was on the bottom of the menu. So you can have your buzzer etc.
sweeeet.been anticipating this video, i want to get some of that purple hardware for my OG wizard. Just did my first proximity freestyle flight with it the other day. i think i'm ready to graduate to 4s.
Look through the hole fwd of the fwd most strap, if you tighten the strap you will see the board and the settings. Then you can make a small hole in your strap using a hot soldering iron (to seal it) and then you can look at the read out on the board while you poke it with something like a toothpick, that's the best idea I have for not being able to change freq's without removing the top plate. I am yet to do this but plan to, it makes sense to me anyway...
btw the origial wizard vtx has dip switches that are accessible from the rear but they are heat shrunk over so you have to cut a little to access them
+Fab Lab FPV still seems better. I'm sure there is something I'm missing without the manual.
Oh yes! Been waiting for this for a while!
+Aidan Hughes it's here. And the weather has cleared up so it will be in the air today!
DroneRacer101 awesome. Cant wait to see the flight footage!
Hopefully I get enough birthday money to get it!
I'm torn between this and the lizard
+Jesus Ortiz because this is he second generation of the drone I expect it to be better than the Lizard out of the box. It depends on what you are looking for though. The Lizard is small and fast.
Your channel is very great you inspired me to buy my first drone 👍
just got my wizard 220s and it wont connect to bataflight, it keeps saying failed to open serial ports and i already downloaded the drivers but cant figure out the flashing
Maybe try a different USB cable
Brad Montour do u ever get it to work?
I got to fly it yesterday. It is really great. But, the audio is terrible because of the wind. And the DVR cut out. About the only thing that is good is the Gopro footage. I'm going to redo it, but do you think it is worth posting what I have?
Super amazing on 5S!!!!
great video. lot of enthusiasm. subscribed
thank you for such informative and helpful videos!!
Do you know how to change the vtx power?I have a x220s too, but i dont know how to set to 200mw. Tanks
may you post the pdf online i also purchased this item and am attempting to get it up in the air! thank you keep up the quality content!
really nice, I have that one, thanks for sharing 👍
Quick question::::
When you say the sd card slot is for the black box, what does that mean? Can you not plug it in and get the footage from the FPV camera? If not, how do you get the FPV cam footage? Sorry, I’m new to FPV drone racers
I support bro because i order now in bangood....im also excited 😍😍
Thank you mine did not come with a manual eaither. And I dont have a computer. I thank i need to do the same with mi nb e bind it or set up the controller.
Hi. Would you be able to share a softcopy of the manual please?
How to enable osd and battery voltage?
Hi i just got one question
So everythings works for quick start only u need to set up the switches
JorritKeizer I just ordered mine how is yours doing?
@@ruvyfpv4398 the eachine wizzard sucks my esc burned out and the fc is really bad also my antennna broke of a week after i got it i build a new quad.... it sucssss!!!
Damm well I guess I’ll try my luck I should be getting it soon. Did u return it? Did u get it from Banggood?
@@ruvyfpv4398 yes from bangood i didnt return it i trew it in the garbage
Dont try to budget fpv it sucks
Well that’s sucks to hear
So how did that thin top plate work out? The antenna mount? That top plate looks very fragile like just about anything could break it. Doesn't look like a whole lot of clearance between props and main body. Wonder how it held up over 3 years... :-/
Lucky.... Wow you got yours fast. Let me go check my tracking lol
I didn't get a manual with my wizard x220 either?
+Gervais Devine You got yours? Stop what you are doing right now and go lock tight the motors screws. That is tomorrows video.
Is acro mode automaticly on when its in air mode?
Hello. I'm really excited about my x220s...I've had it for 3days now n Haven't even opened box. I'm afraid to screw something up in beta flight I never had to do ANYTHING like beta flight...please please PLEASE HP ME FIGURE TJIS ALL OUT!
I just have recived mine yesterday I will configure the transmiter beacuse it is almost imposible to flight with the default settings.
Just got one on sale, didn't get a manual either :)
there's a firmware mod for the flysky fs-i6 to enable 10 channel mode, i'm guessing it will work for that irangex too. will allow you to have all switches and knobs enabled at the same time
+heretic30176 yep. I kind of hoped it would have been done in the kit. But that is one reason I was excited about this kit.
DroneRacer101 You don't need a mod for the iRange you just need to enable the channels in the settings... I did a video on it a while back if you want to check it out
i just bought this drone i put all of the props on right and it does not take off the props just spin
I receive my first fpv eachine (used) which slot and cable You use to connect to pc? I dont have any cables. And my drone looks Little different.
I cant Find USB c or any other slots... :( help
hey i dont know if you can help me out i have the wizzard x220 not s and my betaflight doesnt read/find it ive try a few other things like impulse rc and nothingany idea?
Can i buy this?
Boa noite, meu drone está desligando os motores em pleno vôo, não estou conseguindo saber o que está acontecendo. Você que tem mais experiência sabe me dizer o que fazer
hey i need help because i dont see any aux switches in my controller settings
Hey bud, offhand you know where the bootloader is? I'd like to upgrade to 3.2.4 ... help and thanks!
Hey Champ! Great Vid! Thanks! I could now use some help because I have to install my own FS-X6B Rx... why does the lead from the FC have a four pin connector that uses only three wires?! My X6B takes three! what a PITA? Btw, the X6B has 3x three-pin connections; one says PPM... not that one, I know, but which of the BUS connections do I use? iBus or Bus with my Evolution? Thanks!
+John Graboski from their 4 wires just remove the TX wire from the FC. You will have to solder on a 3 wire jst sh 5v and ground are easy. Wire the other wire on your Receiver to the RX wire on the FC. I wire up something similar I think in this video. ruclips.net/video/R-kpQgPd0-8/видео.html as for Ibus vs Sbus I recommend you check out the video Bruce at +RCModelReviews just posted. He got a bad FC in his and does a good job showing how he changed his from sBus to IBus to get it working.
DroneRacer101 thanks! It's ready but my weekend is super busy with other stuff now. :s never thought I'd say can't wait til Monday! !
where do you download betaflight?
+Jonas AA__- you have to have Google Chrome loaded. Then in chrome go here and install it as a plugin. chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/betaflight-configurator/kdaghagfopacdngbohiknlhcocjccjao?hl=en if that link doesn't work just google download betaflight plugin
Jonas AA__- at home
Is that why I'm picking it up tomorrow
Hey i ran into trouble with this drone. Can you send me a copy of your drone backup file? I mess up my and i dont have a backup file.
Are you able to bind the flysky i6 t this quad
I'm debating wether I should build a quad or buy one and if I buy one I may get this. Should I buy or build? And if I buy which one should I get? (I'm interested in a racing quad but I won't be competing) Any advice for me?
+Ryan Schumaker It depends on how much time you want to spend before you are in the air. It used to be a no brainer, build is better than buy. But with models like the Wizard X220S now available things have changed. I like the fact that you can get it, fly it and then when something does go wrong you can learn about the component that needs fixed. You don't have to learn everything all at once. People say you won't know how to fix it but I think if you still with something using common components, or that will be very common, or both, like this Wizard and there will be tons of information on anything you ever want to do. If you want to build, build. But don't let people pressure you into having to do it. Just expect that you will have to work on anything you to buy.
same^^
DroneRacer101 Thankyou! I feel like buying will be easier and less can go wrong, I will probably invest my money on this if the price goes down, because I want something good but not over the $150 range
Ryan Schumaker bottom line is you won't get good for that money , unless it's a micro. The wizard is a lot of quad for little money, but the camera is ropey, the frame snaps easily (in the middle) and while the motors put out good thrust, they're seemingly having a lot of issues with magnets coming off, and bad bearings - something that wasn't the case with the old 2205s. I won't say dont buy this, but for a bit more money there are better options. Crusader gt2 or gt2s, tyrant s etc. I've sold a lot of quads and many people have had previous problems with their wizards, and this will be the same. This is the old one with knobs on. If you fancy building one, then banggood do some good kits, and this reviewer will still get paid if you buy one after you've clicked his link :)
Coppertop FPV Thankyou! I checked out one of UAVfutures videos on how to build a $99 quad and I am primarily following that (with a few different parts) I decided that if you buy you can really get the best of all components, but if you build one you can get the best of everything. I have the Bugs 6 right now and I'm planning to upgrade to a better quad I built myself. I'm probably gonna get the flysky I6 radio to go with that
I am still waiting on my delivery of the previous version :(
My drone dont even make the tututut sound if you plug it in and it doesnt fly either
I had a hobby shop replace a esc and now they tell me the radio will not talk to the drone it did when I took it in what the he'll can you tell me
+Byron Rittmaier they replaced one of the ESCs on the 4in1? That can be done but is unusual. Maybe the RX just came disconnected. Or something shorted and something fried.
Hi! I upgrated a firmware and now not good ! I not make save :( Can you send me a .hex and .txt file ?
I keep seeing these videos with tables with grids on them. What are these called?
+SickName Brah they are self healing cutting mats. Like this one. amzn.to/2ulro1G
Cool man, thanks!
Wizard or Lizard, that ''tis the question
+Glowworm 334 sounds like a video idea to me. :-)
hello, can you send me the original cli-file from the wizard x220x?
Thanks for helping... Quick question, I have arm switch enabled but still have to hold throttle down to the right for two seconds in order to unlock motors....Is that the same for you?
No, it should be one or the other.
Hello ino im abit late but can i use a chromebook for betaflight?
I don’t think so.
yeah you can there's a special version on the chrome web store
Hi from the netherlands. Nice video man. I also received the quad and have a problem. My transmitter is not responding in betaflight or to the drone. When I set it on the red led on the receiver stops blinking. So that's good. What am I missing here? Maybe you have some pointers? Or somebody else ofcourse :)
+Dennis H Did you set the receiver UART and then set it to SBUS on the configs page?
Yes I did. It's set to uart 6 en also Sbus ofcourse. Strange thing is that it takes up to 10 or 15 times before my receiver is connected to the fc and gets inputs. What could that be?
@@misterq22 did you figure it out ? yeah some time past flew
@@czogu5066 no. I have send the drone back.
@@misterq22 i found a solution in my case, it was not an iBUS but sBUS
and it worked for me
Neither the X220 or X220s come with any real instructions. The X220s has like a brochure that has zero helpful set-up info and when i emailed Bunggood the info was also pretty much useless. Due to the fact that this is my first quad and having no idea what the first thing about setting them up i got very pissed off and discouraged to say the least. If i were to do it again i would pay extra cash to be able to have decent product support from the manufacturer because to me Bunggood has jack shit. Thanks to DroneRacer101 for an easy to follow directorial video.
Est ce que on peut mettre un batteri 5 s dessus?
Oui, vous pouvez me voir voler sur 5S ici: ruclips.net/video/8PB0riLa5gU/видео.html
Merci beaucoup de ta réponse tu est vraiment un bon youtuber car tu fais l’effort de me réponde en francais
Yay Google Translate. Je suis sûr que ce n'est pas parfait, mais ça fonctionne.
Si si c’est très bine comme moi je comprend tes vidéo je suis obligé d’écouter les sous-titre RUclips ses affreux à un moment ta dis chargeur il trudui parleur.
4s or 5s ?!
+AdzInNetwork have mostly flown it 4S. But 5S is fun to get out sometimes. ruclips.net/video/8PB0riLa5gU/видео.html
Can I use a 2s 6000 mah battery?
I haven’t tried but I don’t think there would be enough voltage.
Ok so RTF doesn't actually mean READY to fly. You still have to do some setup and stuff then.
AQHackAQ this was a LONG time ago. I would bet the setup is cleaner now.
Doesnt work for me😔😔
Tim Marinšek what doesn’t work?
ich habe kein;; EIR MODE ,, whay-?
Banggod never answer emails from me there's no comunication at all
RTF....SHIT.....MORE DIFFICULT THAN FLYING A 747...
out of stock :(
70mph
lol sadly thats not painted purple, thats fibre class
I wish this came with goggles... one can dream :(
There are really good budget options. What are the Best Budget Goggles? EV800 vs EV800D vs EV100 vs VR006 ruclips.net/video/NhvylBGCAUc/видео.html
Mine just beeps continuously. So bad so, that I simply cannot stand it no more. #pissedrightoff
Could be a number of things. I would start by checking the modes tab in Betaflight to make sure the buzzer isn’t on a switch you don’t have mapped so it is basically set to go off all the time.
@@SimRacer101 it won't connect anymore
wtf u didn't fly it
+Nate Dogg as I mentioned in the video it was POURING outside.
👍👏✈🛩🚁🚀🤸♀️🤸♂️🤸♀️🤸♂️🙃🙃🙃🙃
Wow.. I realy like wizard. I really really like drone racing. I want to buy racing drone. But my probs is. Money. Hahaha i wish one day i got 1. 😀😊😊
pointless vid without flight
+Wes Crockett I think it deserved a really good look first. But would be to long with a flight.
DroneRacer101 If your doing a vid like this you could at least have taken it apart and talked about the components. This vid shows nothing about the quad.
+Wes Crockett chooses / has time super early in the morning on a holiday and my wifes birthday before anyone else in house is awake. :-)
