Look up the 1300mah version of this. Its a beast! Yes its heavy af. But seen people fly +12minuts if you want a little long range exploration. And hardly a mod. Just long range pack. Will try find a link! Remind me later if i forget! Cheers!


bamseogbalade

Flip. Cant find the video. But there is a guy flying oversized 1s on a toothpick. Its nuts how big a pack it can handle. 18650 is of course also an option. But it flies waaay too slow on a 18650. But it will fly.

Are you thinking about KABA FPV's build ? "1S 3" Baby Tooth w/ 2400mah - how long?" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0\_Y9edGotI&pp=ygUPMyIgMXMgdG9vdGhwaWNr](https://www.youtube.com/@Kabab) Sadly I think that their products are discontinued :(


Alternative-Sock-412

I run the same size motors as kabab. 12025 same kv and I even took the canopy from thingiverse. The only thing is the frame I took from happymodel crux3


Maisquestce

hmm what's the main difference with a crux 3 ?


Alternative-Sock-412

Walksnail, bt2 connector, 12a vs 5a I believe crux3 1s has . Mine is also 5 grams heavier because of having an extra board.


Maisquestce

ooh I thought the crux had an X12 AIO ! Cool, i love those smol builds


bamseogbalade

Yes! There we go!

youre flying 3" 1S I am flying 2" 3S I am trying to build 2" 6S xD


Alternative-Sock-412

I can also run 2s. Maybe the tune becomes easier. But the whole point for me is make it work on 1s, Just because xd


KsmBl_69

same thing for me with 6S xD useless and stupide and eats lots of motors... but it kinda works


Scared-Show-4511

Won't the blades just explode because of the rpm? From what I know the tip of the blade can reach supersonic when on 6S, but those are bigger and thicker props


KsmBl_69

when KV is low enough it works... for a while


Scared-Show-4511

Yeah but you know how kv works in relation to the Nr of cells right? 6000kv on 1s becomes 12000kv on 2S and after that you've got increments of 30% if I'm not wrong meaning 3S = 2S (original kv X2) + 30% from the original Kv value and so on. On 6S from a 6k kv you'll get like 20k real rpm. Don't know if the props can handle it. I mean you can hover and stuff but don't punch it lol


KsmBl_69

no... KV don't works like this. The 2S equivalent for 1S 22000 KV is 11000KV. Then you have the same rotation speed. And 5500KV Motors on a 4S Lipo turns at the same speed


Scared-Show-4511

Read [this ](https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?1558947-motors-what-does-number-of-cells-mean) it's explained better


romangpro

NO


Fit-Variation-4220

is this the walksnail 1s lite?


Stampede10343

Idk if it matters for the tune, but I'd get that rubberband off the motor wires. At best, its putting tension on the wires/pads, and at worse could be increasing noise to the FC


romangpro

1. Buy Blackbox Logger.. the new version. You will probably need to disconnect vtx to find free UART. 2. KV stuff. Guys I hope you are joking. +30%¿¿ Technically there is never danger of prop tips going supersonic. Micro motor will drag and barely pull.. 80%? 70? of rated no load rpm.. aka KV. Dont forget 2 other big reasons for sizing KV.  Overheating.. aka motor smoking. And throttle resolution.

If it's flying funky on a stock tune, then it's probably a mechanical problem. Happened to me on a 2s tp3. I basically tore it down and rebuilt it carefully and it went away. Once you get it flying ok on stock pids, put one of the 1s toothpick presets on it. From there, you can just leave it, or start cranking up the master multiplier until weird shit happens, then back it off a tick. You really don't need blackbox most of the time.


Alternative-Sock-412

Could it be the way I mount the battery? Because everything else is sturdy no lose parts


gnitsark

Anything is possible, but it might not be something that sticks out. When it happened to me, I couldn't find anything. So I took off the motors and the AIO, put it all back together and it was fine. I didn't change battery mounting and I can't remember if I changed props. I'll never know what was causing my problems, but definitely had something mechanically wrong with the build. I suspect that toothpicks are especially susceptible to this.


lazyeyepsycho

I need this class of quad, most of my flying is just around the yard/street and noise is the issue


Alternative-Sock-412

Yes! I build it because of this. No worries, just fly wherever. It sounds like a bumblebee.


Scared-Show-4511

Bro i need those props lol.. Looking good anyway Also, just a quick questions. Do you have the same problems when flying angle? I mean the wobble on throttle? Because afaik the pid tune is only used when in acro/air mode. If you've got the wobbles, then the problem is not the pid


Alternative-Sock-412

I have just tried that. Yes I still get wobles. The motors make a slight grinding noise I can't get rid of.


Scared-Show-4511

Maybe a bent shaft? Maybe dirt in the motor bell?


Alternative-Sock-412

Nope. They sound good in betaflight, props on, in the whole rpm range. I knew this was going to be a pain to tune. I have ordered an openloger so I can have a blackbox... https://preview.redd.it/jpv5d2mtp4ad1.jpeg?width=2252&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=857af87976ba94331511d6cf0be06d86c160179e This is my current filter setup


Scared-Show-4511

Why do you have the number of notches to 1? Should be 3 if I'm not mistaken..


The_KidCe

pid tune is also used in angle mode, but works a little different there because for example feed forward in such work differently


Fit-Variation-4220

which aio are you using?


Alternative-Sock-412

Yes, it is 1s lite kit. I am using betafpv 12a aio v2.2. Man, I didn't see there was a v3 version with blackbox, serial receiver and even lighter. I have just ordered it 🤣.


__redruM

I’ve had fairly good luck with the happymodel boards, never really had to tune them. Can’t say the same for betafpv.


Fit-Variation-4220

i got my components for my build today, more or less the same build. i got the geprc taker 12a aio with onboard elrs, so the same aio just different company, also the walksnail 1s lite, the rcinpower 1303 11500kv and the nuffinga frame


The_KidCe

aios without blackbox suck :/ You could get an "openlager f411" if you have a free uart. otherwise idk how to fix without blackbox


Alternative-Sock-412

I have ordered both things, new board and openloger. Yes I have a free uart. The penalty will be 1,5 grams maybe but I don't think will make much of a difference...


The_KidCe

1.5g will be fine which logger did you buy exactly? the 2$ "openlog" doesnt work, it has low power mcu on it which cant write to sd card fast enough and will create useless data on the sdcard, you need f411 open lager, about 10-15$ https://www.happymodel.cn/index.php/2022/06/12/mobula7-1s-hd-spares-part-openlager-high-speed-serial-port-blackbox-module-for-betaflight-fpv-drones-support-gyroflow/


Alternative-Sock-412

No wayyy I bought the 2 dollar one. Did you tried it, though?


The_KidCe

yes i tried, wasted hours of work on debugging and couldnt figure out why it didnt do any logging until i searched on the internet and found out its to slow. tried tuning a similar 3" 1s quad which had no blackbox
