DON"T Forget I have a box here of spares for another build. If you need it just watch the whole video and leave a comment about it. I'll randomly pick one of you guys to send it to. also even if its not the box of parts you win here are some bonus sim codes to redeem on steam too. 960P6-DKVE5-X4XLV JG779-PKXQD-470Q4 ZG2YL-ZX2AK-E5HHI NF4L9-BRQQM-E7VVB FG3BP-59TXP-QZWAQ 8TDEW-CZ5JE-7WCPI 90CNV-IJTY5-3J8TG P73Y0-CTJKX-LMRRM
I have to agree unfortunately, the soldering work in this particular vid does not look good at all. The solder looks like blobs dropped on the pads, no flow, the soldering iron is not hot enough and that leads to dry joints, ie: high potential for arcing at those contact points with poor conductivity, weak joints that'll rip off easily with a crash. Sorry to be so critical but that's really bad soldering work.
Yup. Soldering is really bad. A bit or flux, heat the pad, and it would reflow nicely. He could even turn it into a whole video how to fix your little f'ups.
was thinking it couldnt be that bad but the further i got into the video the worse it got, especially the motor wires they are wayy to loose nobody would buy that if you sold it for free
Currently getting into this hobby for the DIY side of it. I build guitar amps, but I can't fly those. I've got a controller and 10 hours in the sim. Videos like this are helpful to figure out what I actually want. My head is spinning looking for the right systems to start with.
This is what makes the fpv hobby one of the best communities ever...(there are some goobers like everything) but helping eachother amd sharing info and build specs and parts making sure to share the joy... so glad i found this hobby. Love your content and you seem like one of those super chill people i wish you were in florida
I fly 3.5" most, and my last 5" was a disaster. I would love to get back inte the 5" drones! The old build tutorials was my main insperation for building fpv quads.
An angel from heaven that descended on a drone! Really want to get into FPV and Camera drone but want to do solid entry to it without breaking the bank! And I have also been experimenting with soldering and raspberry pi/arduino, so this project is perfect! Thanks for the video!
Wow Stu! I didn't realize just how much I missed your content when you were not making it. Soooo glad your back at it, and looking smarter than ever! God bless my man!!
I'm so glad to see you still sticking in there and your budget drone builds are by far my favorite on youtube and been the most helpful to me so thanks dude.
I've always wanted to get into flying drones....building one seems like a lot of fun. I definitely gotta check out the budget builds(so I can learn to fly) then build this one. Thanks for the inspiration and great video.
Awsome video, it's great having Aussie made videos and seeing relevant content I've been watching your Channel for years now and as of last week I finally flew for the first time
I’ve just completed my build of volodor 3.5, now planning for 5 inch 😂. This man’s videos is where I learnt to make my drone and my hobby began with his videos. Big up bro. Sending love from India.
Thanks for your videos, I am just getting into the hobby and all your videos have helped so much, just got a new bee RTF kit! Can't wait to build one like this that can hold a Go Pro!
Awesome video! Sure made me want to build my own Vollador II!!! I guess I just had to put on a like for that wonderfull top-of-the-head footage!!!! ;P Cheers!
Oh yes who wouldn’t want some uber smooth walksnail digital on a killer of a freestyle drone! I’ve been loving the radio master pocket since you recommended it, thanks for the good call!
Your channel has convinced me to follow an old dream and get into fpv, just bought the walksnail L and a pocket, super excited to start planning out my drone! (and hopefully I win!)
Thank you for the simulator code. I just started with this hobby and your videos are a great resource. The box of parts would be an awesome jump start.
Never built a drone before Stu and you have presented this in a way that as a newbie I could follow and I am starting to make sense of all the bits and bobs. Lucky me, as a newcomer it seems more streamlined and less complex than a few years ago.
Another banger video, just getting started in FPV now. It's been fantastic and frustrating, amazing to learn new tricks and just fly around, frustrating as heck to fail so many times trying new tricks. I watch many creators and gotten so much info but I really just enjoy your vids....I just want to go out and have fun flying, that is what I get from your content. Thank you
I've always appreciated your $99 builds for their value, but it's great to see you step it up and take into account the value of user experience. I'd be extremely lucky to have one of these for my first build!
The audio sounds very good. No garage reverb Great build. I would give it a go if I already didn't have too many fpv ships. I usually quickly redo my solder joints by touching with the iron over the joint with some extra flux paste. This ensures that I don't get any cold joints.
I enjoyed watching this. I have flown helicopters and some cheap quadcopter but never tried FPV. I'm a little nervous trying to build these but I'm motivated to try after this video. I challenge you to get your daughter to build one and video it. Then I'll feel ready.
I know it’s a bit late but I’ll take a box of parts!!!! I’ve finally taken the plunge and purchased a Mario 5 frame and a Boxer Crush. Been watching your vids for too long not to give it a go!!!
I have a Radiomaster Pocket turning up tomorrow based on your review and recommendation and have recently purchased a flight sim. Got a lot to learn going forward but have watched heaps of your vids and will be building a quad copter down the track. Thanks for all you do and best for the future.
awesome build! I haven't flown for over 6 years but have decided to get back into the hobby, UAVfutures was the first channel I came back to and it's good to see you haven't changed at all! Would love some parts if chosen! if not I am still going to build one in the very near future!! Thanks for catching me up on all that's changed :)
Looking at this channel for many years. Dreaming of flying one of these drones. After watching UAV F. I have invested in a good controller and training on simulator for years. Highly recommended to start using a sim before going for the real stuff. Happy flying all!
Wow, that looks like a sick build. I am somewhat new to flying drones, but have been in the RC hobby for several decades. Piloting FPV drones has been nothing short of amazing. If you haven't decided on who to send those spare parts, I'd love to start this build. Thank you!
I bought my first drone. The emax tinyhawk. Little white guy. I cannot wait for it to get here. I've seen some videos about building your own and this video gave me confidence to build. Thanks, this is great info! Definitely got a new subscriber! I can't wait to build my first drone once I get the tools and of course, more confidence. Cheers! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hey you pretty much got me into this hobby years ago. Although I haven't built a drone in about 5 years, my son is old enough to start getting into it. I am getting him a Tamiya car kit in a few weeks for his birthday and intend to fit fpv to it later this year. Next year I want him to build his first fpv drone. I want to get back into it with him, if you still have any parts they'd be super helpful for our hobby. Otherwise no worries, still love your vids

Bbbbaaammm Baaaam, i might Build my first own Build. 😅😅😅 @UAVfutures
FYI you might want to give the codes out another way. There are bots that scour platforms for codes and redeems them. Here’s to hoping for some parts!
Haha comment nah love ya work need the parts
comment DROPPED - nah love ya work I’m in the NT previously QLD haha I need the parts it’s rough up here
solder job looks pretty cold tbh
bruh, rlly cmn man nothing more positive? lmfao

This guy is the most truly generous man I have ever seen and most passionate about drones.
Keep it up mate!

Fantastic build, i have watched loads of builds, but this one is for me the best. Nice details, you talk very clear and with a good pace. Keep it up.
Dude, your blowing it up! Been addicted to your vids! Thanks so much for the insight and the education! Free Style for the WIN!!
That freestyle build is insane.
I fly 3.5" most, and my last 5" was a disaster. I would love to get back inte the 5" drones!

Your old videos with the Eachine Wizard are what brought me into this hobby, I never got around to building that $99 beauty, but I kept watching!
Another splendid job Stu keep up the great content
It's incredible dude!
The QuadFather has come a long way from the days of the "Three Stuges", keep up the good work, always great stuff.
just getting into fpv very thankful for your videos!!!!
Wow Stu! I didn't realize just how much I missed your content when you were not making it. Soooo glad your back at it, and looking smarter than ever! God bless my man!!
Nice frame. Looks good
Another awesome video, glad your back, been here since 2018
Im so glad you are back to making content and I love building drones just about as much as flying them
You make this look so easy. That was awesome. Im going to go ahead and try to build one. You only live once. 😊
I'm so glad to see you still sticking in there and your budget drone builds are by far my favorite on youtube and been the most helpful to me so thanks dude.
Well, I definitely learned something today :) Thank you Stu for making FPV more accessible to the newcomers!
Nice one stu, legend of the fpv community!

Nice work on the drone 😁👌 very cool & the motors look really good also 👍
Stew, you continue to hit it out of the park by inspiring everyone to dive in and enjoy this great hobby! Great vid.
I'd love to build this! The motors look really sharp!!
Awsome video, it's great having Aussie made videos and seeing relevant content
I've been watching your Channel for years now and as of last week I finally flew for the first time
Your vibe the past few months is amazing ❤

So rad, would love to get into this hobby! Keep making great videos
Awesome video! Sure made me want to build my own Vollador II!!! I guess I just had to put on a like for that wonderfull top-of-the-head footage!!!! ;P Cheers!
Love the tricks with the blu-tack, and with the power cap through the via holes. Very neat. "You're going to learn something today!" 😀
New to the community and just ordered my first frame
Love these videos! You really make building drones seem less intimidating. Thanks!
Great video, that frame is pretty nice with space for the capacitor 👍
Oh yes who wouldn’t want some uber smooth walksnail digital on a killer of a freestyle drone!
I’ve been loving the radio master pocket since you recommended it, thanks for the good call!
I have been flying this drone on the flight sim. It's a blast.
This looks like a great build for a beginner!
Wow such a premium and clean drone build 😊
Got a drone for Xmas flew it twice before I lost it to low battery in a green belt behind my house! Had a blast. I need to build my own!
Came back to this channel after a long time.
Good to see you man.
It's good to have an Aussie doing this. I'm just building a Speedybee master v5. Watching your vids are really helping. Thanks lot.
I'm new to FPV, still learning! been having so much fun! Thanks for this video!!!!
Been watching your videos for a while now and think I will finally pull the trigger to get into the hobby. Really appreciate the doc you created!
Still rocking your original $99 build from years ago 👍
which one???
i also want to build one can you mention name of video
@@smartos1212 it cant be done for $99 anymore mate. but just search $99 fpv build
Love to start up again, busy for now but your channel is the go to spot for when I get back into flying (drones). Until then, stay free!
Your channel has convinced me to follow an old dream and get into fpv, just bought the walksnail L and a pocket, super excited to start planning out my drone! (and hopefully I win!)

Nice job Stu. Glad to see you still in the game, mate. Thanks for keeping me inspired with flying FPV.

Always wanted to build myself a freestyle fpv drone, these videos are great motivation for getting one built. Thanks!

Good to see your charisma back mate 👍

The reason I startede building and flying drones was UAVfutures $99 drone build video. Thank you Stew! You are the best!
Nice job on video Stu!
Awesome build 👌
Am watching your video's to get in this hobby, need to learn more until get a good knowledge and start building my own one
Very cool video
Thanks for the content 🤟👍
great video. I'm just getting into my hobby and your channel helps me a lot. I would be extremely happy about the free parts.
Those Mamba stacks are great - only stacks I've ever used, and never had a problem
Been watching your videos for a long time. Thanks for everything!
I know it’s a bit late but I’ll take a box of parts!!!! I’ve finally taken the plunge and purchased a Mario 5 frame and a Boxer Crush. Been watching your vids for too long not to give it a go!!!

Your build video are fantastic soon after some more hours of training ill try this build !
I love this build and it was crazy easy
Hi! thanks for the build i realy liked it!
Looking at this channel for many years. Dreaming of flying one of these drones. After watching UAV F. I have invested in a good controller and training on simulator for years. Highly recommended to start using a sim before going for the real stuff.
Happy flying all!
what sim do u use?
Keep it up brother 🤙🏽
started with your turnigy evo and wizard x220 recommendations years ago great to see you releasing regularb videos again
Looks like an awesome build!
Just going to give the 3.5" flyfish volador a go..Might have a look at the 5" too..Great video! Showing building is fun is awesome.
YES! Finally a new build video! Awesome!
Wow, that looks like a sick build. I am somewhat new to flying drones, but have been in the RC hobby for several decades. Piloting FPV drones has been nothing short of amazing. If you haven't decided on who to send those spare parts, I'd love to start this build. Thank you!
I’m new to this. Love your channel
Beautiful build!! Thanks for sharing your passion!!!
I’m ready to build this!!! Thanks for the info. I’ve been flying the meteor 75 pro and loving it❤🎉

this build plus dji 03 equals LOVE
Thanks for great videos! Starting my first drone build and would love to get some spare parts for my budget build. Thanks!!
That’s a real cool drone you got there. Damn I wanna get into fpv.
im new and still learning. im from Malaysia. Getting addicted with fpv.
I will built it for sure. Thanks for the video
Thanks for the video. Very informative.
Great practical wisdom on reducing headaches while assembling.
Wow! Being a maiden flier and a know how to solder that would be sick to walk into this way!
Gorgeous dreamy! Wow!
You taught me how to solder many years ago !

Damn it Stew! You are making it hard to resist getting into FPV 😬😬😬 This is a cool looking build.
Nice build brother. Ripper!
