    little tip for the buzzer: instead of always taking a pair of tweezers with you, just plug in the battery after unpluging it, wait a few seconds (i just wait until the esc started up) and disconnect the battery and the buzzer stops beeping.

      Yeah, that is such a convenient feature. Got one on my main freestyle quad squished between the cam and the ESC. There's no way to get to the button there so that is the only way to turn it off.

    Great video, and I would like to build one on the same frame. Please don't take this the wrong way, constructive criticisms only! :) I've completed soldering classes that only AF avionics and NASA techs go to, so I may know a thing or two about soldering. 1- Don't use so much solder. Solder is not glue, and less is better, especially on something that vibrates. Too much solder leads to cold solder joints and adds to the joint mass, causing it to rip the pad off the board due to vibration eventually; and not to mention that fat messy joints can lead to a short. Flux your pad, then your wire. Tin your wire (lightly where you can still see the individual strands, but they are tinned silver), then place the tip of the tinned wire onto the pad, letting the surface contact and heat from the iron melt the solder out of the wire, and onto the pad. An ideal joint will look like a tinned wire stuck to a tinned pad with a tiny fillet on either side of the wire. Any solder joint that has a convex surface is generally considered too much. 2- Set your temperature right. Too hot can cause damage to your controller, so if you aren't using a heatsink, you can damage it and/or fry the pad off the board. Too cold, and you will cause cold solder joints that will pop off eventually. Choose a temp that readily melts the solder, but isn't burning, around 275f - 320f, this will depend on the diameter and composition of your solder, and your ambient air temp. 3- Don't be scared to use more flux. Get yourself some flux paste and a small acid brush. Flux the crap out of all surfaces to be soldered on. Flux cleans the surface and promotes adhesion. After you are done soldering, get an old toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol and scrub off the dried flux. I know pro drone folks have been doing this for years and they've had no problems, blah, blah, blah... however, I prefer to eliminate all possibilities that my soldering isn't going to be a reason for any failure.

I go in tinkercad, add 2 hollow 5mm rings about 30mm apaert and stick them to the side of the flight cam mount (if you are using a proprietary flight cam mount and not a printed one, you can just make a standoff mount) and stick the antenna in there (I fly crossfire or dragonlink - this method is for the crossfire immortal T). That way, my contol link is in the least ideal position when flying away from myself, but the most ideal position when flying towaerds myself - this allows you to fly to your control limit (which should theoretically never happen) and not failsafe when turning and beginning the return trip. If you do get near your limit, you can improve control link by turning home.

    Awesome Build! I love the GPS trick. It must act as a shielding for the GPS's wires out to the GPS Antenna Rcvr itself. I wonder if you could do this same thing with the other antennas going over the FC or something noisy, like the RX, Digital AU/VTX or Analog VTX Antenna Leads, etc.. maybe get some better Range as well.
    One thing i noticed with my older TBS M8 GPS FPV size module is that I used to get 10-12 satellites in a matter of 10-15 secs and then it would reach as high as 21, but at least 15-20 Sats normally and never lose them.
    Now with the O3 Air Unit finally in because of camera fitment and waiting on parts, i have the Digital in and I have to wait that full 1min or so to get enough Sats for GPS Rescue and all that.
    It also wont just gain antennas as it goes, it will just all of a sudden go from 0 to 5-6 in the initial wait and then another few seconds and its at about 12 Sats is my normal now, maybe 15max once, but i havent seen it again. 11-13 normally now.
    Everything still works fine with the GPS and the Drone will remember the Home Spot and all that if you lose GPS a few times during flight, and lose all the gps features like DTH and the H arrow, but its able to recover and still do a GPS Landing, which is good for a far away Failsafe where you probably wont find it or be able to even get it.. Its a chance it will make it back at least closer and maybe get video or signal back. So far its actually worked great for me, its lands super smooth at the end and its pretty damn accurate for small gps only
    I like that frame as well, and the parts list was probably more high quality for the preset checkbox lol.
    What kind of range increase do you get with the longer O3 Air Unit Antenna's? And im guessing the diversity TBS T antennas are mounted at the two different orientation's for picking up a signal from all directions better or did it just work out like that? Ive only ever used the XF Nano RX. But ive been planning on building a Long Range out of the 7" drone frame and setup i have already that i got on a combo sale, the brand is raggio i believe. Its nice im just not sure if thats a popular brand or not. I looked on the HGLRC wesbite and i really like that Rekon5 F5 HD frame kit.. I have an analog iflight nazgul5 xl5 v2 6s. Its not a bad drone really, especially for the price i got it for on sale with a CRSF Nano RX already installed as well. $120..
    Anyway, i wanted to just add my O3 Air Unit to this one but the frame is kind of too narrow in the center for the 20mm camera for the O3 and it has no front camera protection for a camera that style. So i figured id put the electronics into a nicer frame, add the O3, add the gps. And then use spare parts to build up the iflight again and just use it with analog..
    I actually assumed that for a long range build you basically needed to use Analog to really get that range out there.. What is your best range for the video connection? Also if you lose video, can you just hit the failsafe and the gps will start flying it back closer until you regain video and can continue flying..!

    Once done with soldering the joints on each of the PCBs while following the tips of @olligesd9343, I would recommend taking a conformal coating such as MG Chemicals 422C or any other similar conformal coating and apply it to the entire surface of each of the PCBs. On both sides. Except for the contact surfaces of the components that come into contact with the heatsink. This will help waterproof everything and protecting against just about anything those PCBs are going to be exposed to while in use. (edited for spelling and grammar correction.)

      This long range build is built more with quality in mind than affordability (my 5" "budget builds" are always built with price in mind and I try to keep it under $200).
      The total cost of this 7" long Range FPV drone came out to somewhere around $600-$700 when I added it up around the time of making this video. That's with an O3 air unit and the 5600mah Li-Ion.

    In case I'd like to go with ELRS instead of crossfire, what would you recomand to use?
    Thanks!

    I’ve been thinking about building this over the Joshua Bardwell or Johnny FPV build kits.
    I really like the idea that I child later upgrade the parts to support 8 motors and really want a long range 7” build.
    Yes I’m new, but I’m already a builder, one a lot about IoT and I’m a software engineer. I’m doing this build to teach my son and after watching the entire video I assume that I would have success even if I decided to use even slightly different parts.
    The one reason I really liked the JB build was because he had additional videos that show pairing and software. So this will either be my first or second build.
    Any suggestions????

    Hey man, I built it and now with the O4 on the horizon: could you do an update on changing it to the O4 (probably not very hard) and adapt it to the newer Betaflight versions? I fear that 4.5 messed up my flight performance and give me jitters...
