    This a very impressive and well thought out Wing-FC with very flexible design. Great balance in feature set, physical size and value. Even the product description (web) is well thought out, giving good guidance to newer wing pilots on when to choose INAV or ArduPilot as FC software.
    A great feature I have not seen on any other FC is the ability to boot to USB, WiFi, or BLE connectivity options (7:00). For example if the USB gets damaged, can still use the FC using WiFi, or BLE. (may even be able to workaround accidentally disabling UART1 in INAV, which disable USB connectivity? have not tested) According to webpage/manual, a long "6 second" press switches modes. Shorter presses switch LED modes (as noted at 8:43). Great easy to read labeling on top of the FC, plus a LiPo battery 'state of charge' % status checker (4 LEDs).
    Really look forward to seeing you Ranger T1 build series. It will be a nice pairing to this FC.
    BTW: SpeedyBee product page is now live (should you want to include a link in the desc). Great content and graphics, including PDF manuals.

    Hello, you have made a great video. I bought the FC as a result. After 2 hours of operation and setup, there was a short circuit on the circuit board and the FC caught fire. I contacted Speedybee directly because I had also bought the FC there. They then decided that it was not a fault with the circuit board and that they could give me a 30% discount if I bought it again. I think something like that should also be mentioned in a video. A regular customer warranty is simply rejected here. Greetings Georg😫

    Wery welcome. But I see one major design flaw. Silicone grommets between boards. They need to be fixed or the plugs might disconnect... matek has copper standoffs without silicone grommets. Yes expensive but they do it right. So conclusion looks fancy but do not trust it.

      There is metal stand-off in there as well. I show this.

      @rasmus80g Год назад

      @@MadRC yes I saw that. But I remember a flight stack that had problems with this. (Can't recall the acutal stack) Basically same thing as having a regular stack screw thru the grommets on a quad. There is reason why all quad stacks uses wireharness instead of this solution... the boards should really be fixed will just cause stress issues on the plugs without helping vibration because it will translate via plug instead...

    Pin headers?? Has GepRC's mistakes taught you nothing, Runcam? Did you notice how only the middle board gets the gummies, while the other ones are hard-mounted while connected to the middle one with pin headers? Were they high when designing that?

      @@MadRC They won't short, but rigid pin connection between two boards where one of them is supposed to be suspended on gummies and the other hard-mounted? That's all kinds of wrong.. Think of the stresses on the connector when there are G loads and about what's the use of gummies when you have a rigid connection in the form of pins plugged into header.. I'd like to see raw gyro logs from that wonderful invention and also to have a glimpse at connector failure rates after some use..

    this is the 3rd time I got a review in my inbox and still no such product available on speedybee's website, only a V3 F405 which looks like a drone fc cause it has no wing markings engraved as shown in the video.
    Should be mentioned that this is an influencer only product cause if I remember right Lee had been the first in last year reviewing it but without any product link. Speedybee should at least have an anouncement in their product category instead of showing the fc offeringw without that new wing fc.
    It feels like a continuous aprils fools day. And I did not expect that you would do a review too even without a link like all the others had done before.
