Your drones are far better mate.. you should sell'em. I wish I could buy your frame design and enginee you use for long range 4s quads. You achieve 50mins fly time where all the competition is far back.
Hi dave, hope you are doing well. Was wondering if you will be adding TPU updates for the new DJI o3, so we can be running 2 tall antennas and perhaps the m8 matek GPS. I still enjoy the 5 and 6 inch versions of this frame. Thank you for the work you have put in. Cheers
Absolutely love it! I have the Rekon5 and I'm going to buy the 6" arms. Then I'm going to have the motors connected to the FC with MR30 connectors so I can go from 5" to 6" with just loosening two bicycle nuts and 4 plugs!
Is the top plate ant bigger over the rekon5? Im having problem running 21700 on rekon5 (isnt the weight since i can run hero9 and 18650 li-ion) I think 21700 pack too wide and shaking, making quad vibrate. Im using the 3d printed zip ties. Battery strap was so tight between FC and top plate
Hey Dave! any word on the 4 inch freestyle build by chance? Been really excited about it since you announced it and was wondering when it may be available! Thanks, all the best.
What´s are the correct values for de VTX tables on this model? I just saw a video of AndyRC correcting them, In mine seems to be wrong becuse the values for the power are pretty low
@@catmanfpv9213 Yes, it's awfull in the default configuration, even with the braces attached. The Rekon 6 is the worst RTF quad I ever bought, compared to the rekon 5, the best RTF quad I ever bought. I never found a tune to get rid of the vibration problems, the design is flawed, the frame is prone to resonance as one can see in the Betaflight logs. With a 4S 21700 pack the stock Rekon 5 flies way more agile an almost as long as the Rekon 6 .... and without any noticeable vibration or jello. Get a Rekon 5 !
Great design Dave! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I guess I was lucky to order one today even before you had your video up! Really looking forward to try it out! It will look nice on my shelf right next to the Rekon 3, 4 and 5 😊
I just bought this drone! I thought it was the perfect choice in between 5 inch and 7 inch. I have a few questions, mainly all battery related. What is your recommended 6s battery? I bought a long range 10c 4s that I plan on using for long range. I want to buy a 6s li-ion battery, but I'm struggling to find the right ones in stock. This ESC is rated at 35A for 10 seconds. In my mind, this tells me that I cant use a battery that has a higher discharge or burst rate than 35A, because I don't want to fry the ESC. Is this true? Or can I use any 100c 6s lipo with this drone? I appreciate what you do.
You got that backwards. The battery's capability is what's available. The ESC and motors request a certain amount of draw. It's fine to have a battery rated much higher.
Hi! Really unhappy with motors nuts, I can't find the spare one.. I bought from Ali , it fits for the motors but not for the key! It's a really big headache... What exactly the specification for this f...g nuts¿
There will be a Rekon 7 Pro (classic 7" that appears shortly in this video) and Rekon 7 (light 7" based on the Rekon 5) released in the near future :-)
You could just buy a DJI camera I believe, or even just the nebula pro camera and swapping it out with the old one is fairly simple aswell, no soldering required
@@mr.animegod_yt that's what I did on a 3 inch build. I bought the Caddx Nebula Micro by mistake and swapped the camera (bought a Pro as a standalone). But those are in short supply too.
When I hear "recon" the first thing I imagine is remotely controlled gimballed FPV camera with variable zoom lens and auto-pilot functionality. Come on drone people, there's more to drones than freestyle and racing! Make it happen!
@@Edgar1991123 Mavic kinda overpriced garbage tho... plus it weights a fucking ton which is a big no no (UK) plus it doesn't support analog which is also a downside for, well, RECON purposes cus dogshit range. 2 servo gimbal is like 20gram and would be more than fine on a small drone...
Don't knock that on 6s. For the last 3 years my favourite setup has been 2205-1750kv hq quad blade 1300 6. Fantastic performance and 10+ mins is fairly easy.
Once I get up in the air, all I want to do is freestyle, not drive a shuttle bus driver for a naked go pro. Ya go your cinematic pilots... and then you got... your aerobatic pilots...
Cool take on the prop mounting! Well done mate.

Waiting for your 7" 😍
Fantastic design, Dave! It seems to fly nicely! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Got one! Awesome. Would be cool to have a compass though for inav

Just bought it last night, can't wait to see what flight times are like with the ZOHD 21700 5000mAh packs :)
What's the amp rating? I need to google those
Hi, ! So how it is? Is there any jello ? With lion 18650 or 21700 pack
I've done 40min flight using your rekon5 frame and 3000mah. Wondering what I could do with 6" 😍
Wow.. the props mount really struck me.. it should be a standard mount in near future.. 😘👍
why rekon 6 amp draw is so high? it cant run 18650 safely..
I just checked the RekonFPV store the motors, they aren’t listed yet. I wanted to try them on my Sub 250g 7”. You think you’ll list them individually?
Hey, can u tell me if it's possible to mount a GoPro 10 on it?
Non stop 💪
Can you please share a good tune for the Rekon 5? The stock tune is not so great...
Nice
Hey Dave! any word on the 4 inch freestyle build by chance? Been really excited about it since you announced it and was wondering when it may be available! Thanks, all the best.
they were just sent to reviewers :-) release this month
@@DaveCFPV Awesome! Thanks for the reply!
Another cool looking quad from Rekon! Do you know if they are still thinking of making the sub 250g 4" freestyle? 👍
Yes it will be released this month
@@DaveCFPV AWESOME!!!😊
What are your pids. My drone really is effected by wind
Do you think a 2104 1700kv motor will be suitable considering that I will be using a naked gopro and 18650 4s liion pack?
with a naked gopro, does the rekon 6 have the maximum flight time? and recon 5?

Can you revisit the 7" with these motors? Also not sure how many props you tried out but there are a lot of really bad 7" props
the Gemfan Flash 7040 are the best 7" props in my opinion
Good review, i have upgraded to rekon6 from rekon5, it flies good and fast
Just be honest, it vibrates, right?!
So how it is? Is there any jello? Compare to 5

can you tell me the size of the drone? how much space does it take?
1500kv motors? does this drone fly on a 6s battery?
Hi Dave,so if i understand well,4s is better than 6s for a longer flying time?sorry,i'm beginning...
How much flight time one can get using 2303.5 motor with 21750 lion?????
1500kv should run with at least 5s for efficiency factor
Hey Dave, any tune for 4.3.0 to share with us? :)
Great design Dave! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I guess I was lucky to order one today even before you had your video up!

Wasn't the rekon5 made to carry a full size GoPro at the first place? I mean... It's in the documentation on your website.
Not really. It's just that it can if you really want to in contrast to 4". But still not a good idea 😅
This Rekon 6 looks really nice, I have the Rekon 5, what I'm really waiting for is the Rekon 7, when will it be available?
He troed the rekon frame with 7inch arms a while ago and it was awful and flew even shorter than his 4inch lr
There will be a Rekon 7 Pro (classic 7" that appears shortly in this video) and Rekon 7 (light 7" based on the Rekon 5) released in the near future :-)
@@DaveCFPV when will this Rekon 7 (based on Rekon 5 design) release?
Still only under 30mins with that big battery I slow flying. . I am already fed up with quads because of this. I feel I will go to fixed gliders.
Any idea of when can we get this with a proper Nebula Pro camera? Alternatively, can I squeeze an Air Unit in that frame?

Still no freestyle quad release Dave?
It will be released this month!
I have a LR5 analog using 21700 4s 5000mah could fly for 40min
What brand of 21700 do you use?
What quad is the LR5?
@@larssmith2170 Its an off brand but molicel should work
@@jhughes2286 The 5 inch version of the quad in this video. Its in his list of videos
They should drop that price $50 for only having the Nano Camera
There isn't much they can do. The nebular pro is out of stock and chip prices are getting crazier and crazier....
