The first time I saw the "No crush TPU mount" was when I released my RAD Li-ion frame in 2021. I thought I was the first frame designer to use it. I hadn't seen anyone doing it yet at that time. Just a 5mm standoff insert in the TPU with a washer over top to hold the TPU on. I included it on several mount types not just the GoPro.
The siren f5 has incredible rigidity and resonance. This flys so smooth. I get such a small amount of noise and fly unstabalized GoPro or 03 footage. Looks so good
I have the Quadmula F5 and F5 Mini and it is some of the best quality carbon i have seen on a frame. Great frame If you order one of their frames be sure to order their prints fort it.........
Many great frames out there, no matter your budget. I love my Apex Ultra build, my backup is a Source One V3 with the Holybro Kakute F7 stack. Which was my first 5" build, and rebuild 😬. Still flies great. 👍😎
I have built 2 of them, I was really surprised how good they flew. I usually fly the sourceone or the fpv cycle glide but this was my first high quality part frame I built and I can tell a difference. I used T motor 2080 motors, T motor stack. I don't know if that has anything to do with it beings that my normal quads fly with 16 dollars xing motors and diatone stack and more budget parts but I am super impressed with them. I have crashed it on the concrete and brick several time and they are still holding up.
I'm a huge fan of the source 1. Especially v3 and v4. Super durable. I'm yet to break anything on them. The only reason I got a new one was cause I wanted to deep clean it.
Apex 5 ripoff from ReadyTosky for 20Bucks Bulletproof and same as the original. I flew it and this is the best frame for my entire freestyle genre of FPV quads now.
Yep, but it was a tight build I could not fit a large cap that came with the speedybee with walksnail in the back . If the deck height was 1mm more it would be just fine .
Also confirm this. Love all the readytosky frames. Just as tough for a third of the price. The micro frames are actually slightly longer so easier to fit the stack, also use m3 hardware as opposed to the m2 used in micro apex.
Just flew the Siren F5 Split today, and I can say that it is the best quad that I have flown yet. The PS-3 spacers work great too, but they ARE overpriced. Still going to design them into all the parts I design from now on though.
Talking about not being able to replace components, good luck finding the front camera protector for the Roma F5 V1 frame. Beautiful frame, completely unobtainable one-off machined pieces.
Source One gets my vote for the best budget 5" frame. And I have several quads build around the Apex and they are tanks, but if you're just getting into FPV go with the Source One.
I will give you this, but some of the frames out there (Diatone Roma F5 V2, Evoque F5 V2, etc) have better 'flung mud' and crash protection. But just for a basic frame, the Source One can't be beat.
I've tried both and I can confirm that the vannystyle flies nicer but I break too many arms and on apex I've only ever broken one as I smashed full speed into a pole. I don't think any crash I'll have will be as bad as that. The vannystyle broke arms on trees
My personal best of 5inch freestyle: Best overall frame still the APEX! Best budget frame still the SOURCE ONE. Best durable frame at the moment the DEMIBOT. Best frame design QAV-S JOHNNY EDITION. Best frame name Lethal Conception BANDO KILLER. ...although we all know that it's not a bando killer :D
You need at least three different" frames for different flying applications. My favorite is the Aos5 v2 with mamba f722 mini, caddex vista, xing 2207 1850 motors.
Fpvcycle glide here, tried the sonicare but it he arms which are similar to the aos arms instantly broke not even a full pack, wasn't even a "bad" crash, must have just hit at the wrong angle.
Ok, is it just me or does the Quadmula Siren F5 look just like a TBS source one V5, but mote refined... Makes me wonder, is it worth the extra 45 dollars... Thoughts?
Hey Joshua, where can I buy this GoPro Mount with that nice Metal slip screws and the metal parts between the plastic from printed mount and the screws itself. I could't find them anywhere. Thanks and I like your Vids very much!
As with most FPV components, there is no single best part. Too many times I find we all become fanboys of a certain company or pilots products, and we swear by it and would fall on the sword if need be. Find the right parts that suit your budget and style and embrace it. Above all, have fun.
Out of 3 AOS frames I've broken 0 parts. CM Shocker Tank I've broken top plates, arms, lower braces. Moongoat shattered a camera cage. I wanna see some evidence that the AOS5 is less durable in my experience it's not even if it looks like it might be.
Yep I flown my AOS 5 every day for the last 2 weeks and I've not broken a thing. The original camera mount can move on an impact but now we have the revised o3 mount it's reinforced like it should have been in the first place.
If i have a TATTU R-LINE 4.0 1550MAH 6S 130C Lipo, TATTU R-LINE 4.0 1300MAH 4S 130C LIPO Lipo Battery Packs with XT60 Connector, could i use DJI FPV AC Power adapter to charge it? DJI FPV power adapter is the one i use to charge my DJI FPV drone battery (Lithium ion polymer). Please advise. Thanks.
I am 12 years old and have been flying tiny whoops for two years. But now i am trying to get into 5in freestyle and i started by getting a cheap $25 frame but now i saved up a enough money to go hd and my frame cant carry a vista so am looking for a new frame do you guys have any suggestions?
I've been a huge fan of the JB QAV. I mostly do edgier park flying freestyle, but it's held up almost anywhere for me. I bought 2 at the start of last year, and I've only had to replace an arm once or twice between 2 builds
Jeez, he built that mount with one of them 3d printing pens!!! 😂😂

The files for their printed parts for the F5 are available to the public! If you have a 3d printer, you can print them for very cheap!

Can confirm that. Awesome frame takes some bashing

@@johnkurpiewski3996 use a smaller cap. 35v 470uf rubycon facing the Front
Also confirm this. Love all the readytosky frames. Just as tough for a third of the price. The micro frames are actually slightly longer so easier to fit the stack, also use m3 hardware as opposed to the m2 used in micro apex.
Anyone know if it fits the o3 unit?
I think it would be great to see you build an FPV drone with the Quadmula Siren F5 Split and the DJI O3 Air Unit!! 😀😀

I hear ya brother 🤝👍
Source One gets my vote for the best budget 5" frame.
And I have several quads build around the Apex and they are tanks, but if you're just getting into FPV go with the Source One.
The best frame is the one you can easily get spares for from your local stores.
Absolute facts mate 👍🤝
Source one v5 is amazing. It’s 90% of the premium frames when it comes to performance yet it’s just a fraction of the price.
I will give you this, but some of the frames out there (Diatone Roma F5 V2, Evoque F5 V2, etc) have better 'flung mud' and crash protection. But just for a basic frame, the Source One can't be beat.
Of course I’m bias but I’d put the vannystyle in that top 5! All the benefits of an apex but more durable and lightweight :)
Dont think that your frame is more durable than the Apex. Also only 5.5mm arms. And these break easily. :)
@@MrSmithFPV have you tried the vannystyle frame? just because a frame has thicker arms doesn't make it for durable.
I've tried both and I can confirm that the vannystyle flies nicer but I break too many arms and on apex I've only ever broken one as I smashed full speed into a pole. I don't think any crash I'll have will be as bad as that. The vannystyle broke arms on trees
Apex and Source One V5 are my daily flyers but I want to try the F5. Wish pyrodrone sold them. I have a credit 😁
My personal best of 5inch freestyle:
Best overall frame still the APEX!

Best durable frame at the moment the DEMIBOT.

This is sound advice 👍🤝

Same with foxeer Aura frame mate, I love em but I can see why they made the arms easy to replace! 😅👍
Link to the sleeve at 6:20 pls 🙏
Flywoo Mr.Croc HD! Brilliant Frame!
Heks frame is my best 5´´ freestyle frame without any doubt.
Link?
I have always loved rebelminiquad frames ;)
I've been really enjoying the Ummagawd MoonGoat. 🤘
I fly amarttan they are great migt be quiet expensive but the lifetime warranty is worth every penny
Maybe I missed but I'm surprised vanovers frame isn't included, also I just uses washers and undersized holes for my gopro mounts.
Same here. Iam just using washers to not crush the tpu that much. Works fine.
Ok, is it just me or does the Quadmula Siren F5 look just like a TBS source one V5, but mote refined... Makes me wonder, is it worth the extra 45 dollars... Thoughts?
is the jb edition topplate compatible with the standard qavs? I really start to dislike the split topplate...
Hey Joshua, where can I buy this GoPro Mount with that nice Metal slip screws and the metal parts between the plastic from printed mount and the screws itself. I could't find them anywhere. Thanks and I like your Vids very much!
Alien RR5 frame is my go to
Why do I never hear of the Wasp frame? Wish Chris would get a hold of one and put this topic to rest 🤟
As with most FPV components, there is no single best part. Too many times I find we all become fanboys of a certain company or pilots products, and we swear by it and would fall on the sword if need be. Find the right parts that suit your budget and style and embrace it. Above all, have fun.
👍🤝🤝🤝
Atto Neutrino. Nice and light but strong.
I did some bro math the other day and found that an Apex with a Hero 11 mini is slightly heavier than a Tanq with an Action 2
Yeah, there are lots of good frames indeed. Everything depends on what you want.
Out of 3 AOS frames I've broken 0 parts. CM Shocker Tank I've broken top plates, arms, lower braces. Moongoat shattered a camera cage. I wanna see some evidence that the AOS5 is less durable in my experience it's not even if it looks like it might be.

hahaha roasting his prints lol
Check murdersfpv for more quadmula stuff. The Siren F5 is good competition. Have one build. Should be your next build JB😊
how do nazgul evoque v2 compare against these?
Good question mate 👍🤝
What about Geprc mark 5
For me... Flyfish volador vx5 is the best frame for freestyle...
Its just a re-designed Evoque. FlyfishRC = iFlight...
@@MrSmithFPV yeah.. Also they mix with apex and Geprc mark V design
Hyperlow rs+ is the best!
Best frames hands down!!! QUADMULA
Tanq
Got rid of all my apex frames. Switched to vannystyle and siren f5 mini splits. Much better designed and less weight.
just 3d print the sleeve with a harder plastic
I am 12 years old and have been flying tiny whoops for two years. But now i am trying to get into 5in freestyle and i started by getting a cheap $25 frame but now i saved up a enough money to go hd and my frame cant carry a vista so am looking for a new frame do you guys have any suggestions?
Yeah get the geprc mark 5. A little more expensive but imo the best balance between durability and weight, mostly focusses on durability tho
@@ThePieSnatcher ok thanks

What frame sells the most units?
Tbs source 1 I believe 👍🤝
…or u could use a washer
Dude needs to learn how to tune his 3d printer!
