This is my favorite hobby of all time. Some tips: 1) Dont point your goggles straight up because the lenses act like a magnifying glass and can burn your screen when the sun hits them. 2) The pop when plugging in 6s batteries is very normal. 3) When you get big peaks and not fully covered pads when soldering, that most likely means your iron is too cold. I personally solder around 400 degrees celsius and that seems to work well. 4) The propellers actually surprisingly do matter a lot. Depending on which you get, it can make your quad feel super snappy and responsive, or super smooth and stable. Hope some of this is new knowledge! Happy flying

learning to solder is an art it took me a little while to get it too

Nothing better than flying a racing or freestyle drone with no stability mode. For sure the sim helps or you wil go through so many props I have 17 now maybe slightly in to it ha. Making yur own and doing the betaflight or emu fligt set up along with yhe soldering is enjoyable.

The world doesn't understand...but our community does! Welcome to the club😁

That slide off of the chair in pure happiness made me so happy

Perfect video for newbies, im old..been researching and buying stuff for ages, building a cinewhoop foxeer 25.i really loved the exitement and joy from you both! glad your plugging in without a smokestopper worked..thanx for sharing ,made my day

Great job 👍🏻 thank you for sharing the journey! I used to solder really bad when I first learned it (as a kid doing electronics projects), so much so that it took me hours to accomplish anything. When I started messing about with quads my soldering was already okay, but now 400ish builds later, I’m quite proficient. As with everything you only get better the more you do it. Happy flying!

the nicest first fpv build ever🎉 this was super nice to watch good job

Nice to see more people getting into the hobby as for 2 small tips that will maybe help: 1) there is some stuff called „FPV worry free“ it’s kinda like something between nail polish and hot glue and you can coat your electronics to make them completely waterproof love the peace of mind it gives 2) try to put some solder on your soldering iron and then wipe it on the brass sponge this should make it shiny and like new again Happy flying❤

haha I've got to know what happened on your maiden flight now. Yes knowing how to fix it is such a good feeling

Welcome to the most addictive and thus by time expensive hobby! Respect for going all the way to build your first one yourself, best way to go. For soldering, get sth. like the Diatone Mamba Soldering Practice Board. 350°C - 410°C, the bigger the pad the more heat you need to be able to go in and out fast, for not heating up the board too much. But most boards have good heat resistance by now. But I bet you have good help from flight experienced buddy, also check out for locals to get into it ;-) You made great progress! Keep it up, have fun up there! 🙂

Really nice to see your discovery when building. The first time is so magic. Even your first solder job, nicely done. Also your reaction after the first flight is so recognizable. The high feels like no other :D Don't be scared with the soldering though, you won't destroy it that quick. A little bit more heat (hold the solder iron on it longer) so the wire really melts together with the pad will give a nice shiny connection.

Sweet video! As someone who started in 2016 I thought this might be a bit boring but I loved following your journey. I'll be honest, I had this vid running while fixing my own quads, because as a racer I've got a lot to fix. Gives me that feeling of nostalgia for my first time spinning up motors, first time out at an oval flying around... Impressive landing, too. I've never used extra flux in my life - what's in the solder has always been plenty! That's a really solid setup you've got to start. It's definitely worth paying a bit more and not getting the cheapest gear. This is motivating me to fix up my freestyle quads (I have two 5" freestyle quads, and almost 20 racers... you can figure out my priorities!) Any quad/flying/racing questions, get in contact - myself and thousands of others out here are always happy to help. Enjoy your FPV journey :D

Feel you buddy, after putting everything together, solder it and then the moment of truth, will it work or will it smoke when plug in the battery for the first time. Nerve-wracking moment and the relief when it work as intended. But then you head over to the field and you get nervous how will it perform, will you crash it, will it fly at all. Best hobby ever
