220mm YoungRC + Speedy Bee F7 V2 + 4-in1 ESC

Post by ACalcutt »

I built this new drone recently. Since I found it tough to figure out the parts of my previous drone, I decided with this one I should document it better

SpeedyBee F7 V2 30x30 Flight Controller
SpeedyBee 45A 3-6S BLHeli_32 4-in-1 ESC
FrSky R-XSR (With F-Port Firmware)
DYS SunFun 2207 Motor (2450kv - 4S-5S)
PandaRC VTX 5.8GHz 25mW/100mW/200mW/400mW/600mW Switchable FPV Transmitter (w/Smart Audio)
YoungRC 220mm FPV Racing Drone Frame
iFlight FPV Finder Buzzer YR50B_S 5V

I've been really happy with the SpeedyBee flight controller. it has built in bluetooth and wifi so you can changer settings from a phone anywhere, or update the firmware wirelessly.

I also got a video transmitter with smart audio, which lets you change settings from the OSD or over bluetooth with the app.

I also got a Finder Buzzer which has its own built in battery, which will beep when disconnected. I have lost a few drones now and the battery always seems to come disconnected, making a normal beeper not work. I am hoping with this I al least might be able to locate the next drone i crash into the trees :)

I am also testing F-Port instead of SBUS, since it allows control and telemetry to be sent back to the receiver all over one fport wire.
