* The DJI Air Unit plug is completely compatible with DJI O3/RunCam Link/Caddx Vista/DJI Air Unit V1, no wire is needed to be changed.
Configure your FC and ESC via Bluetooth!
With SpeedyBee app, turn your phone into an all-in-one FC configurator and tune your quad anytime, anywhere. Enjoy wireless, fully configurable ESC experience with SpeedyBee app
ESC upgraded to 55A with heat sink.
The PCB design has been refined, with copper thickness increased from 2 to 3 ounces and enhanced MOSFET specifications. Continuous current now reaches 220A across all channels, peaking at 280A for 10 seconds. An added aluminum alloy heat sink ensures efficient MOSFET heat dissipation for stable ESC output. It delivers a genuine 55A output, primed for your baddest high-powered 6S motors.
ICM42688P Gyro and clean power supply.
Featuring MaxLinear's esteemed LDO power chip, the gyroscope gets dedicated power, enhancing surge protection by 320%. A 100uF filtering tantalum capacitor shields gyro data from power interferences. This ensures precise flight responsiveness, letting you truly savor the joy of flying!
Forgot your LiPo checker? Just look at the FC!
On the side of the flight controller, you will find a 4-level battery capacity indicator. As soon as you connect the battery, you can instantly see the battery level, saving you the hassle of needing to put on glasses to check the battery status.
SD card compatibility issue fixed!
The F405 V3 FC faced compatibility issues with certain microSD cards, with a few even occasionally affecting the stable OSD display. The improved F405 V4 flight controller, however, addresses these challenges. It reliably supports C4, C6, C10, and higher cards at 2k/4k logging rates.
BF/INAV can recognize up to 4GB of black box space. Once you clear the SD card, you can enjoy 1000+ flights. Experience black box freedom like never before!
Change motor directions wirelessly!
Are you still using a computer to change motor directions? With this stack, when you finish your build, connect to the SpeedyBee app, change the motor directions just in a few simple steps*. Then take off.
* To use this feature, please go to the App > Motors > Motor Direction Settings.
8 motors output for X8/Y6/fixed-wings.
You could use this stack to build your X8 drones, Y6 drones or fixed wings. Forget about crawling through your massive build just to plug in that USB cable. Just take out your phone to configure everything in the SpeedyBee app.
4 sets of LED pads with simple switching.
Need more visibility at night? Just solder up your LED strips* and blaze the darkest trail you can find. With just one tap on the BOOT button, you can cycle through all different LED presets** and pick the one you love!
* LED strips could be purchasedhere **Or long press the boot button to switch to Betaflight LED mode.
We've included a TVS diode that effectively absorbs voltage spikes during power-up and crash events. The board features 21 high-quality Japanese TDK 35V 22uF SMD filtering and energy storage capacitors. These, along with the standard 1000uF high-frequency, low-ESR electrolytic capacitor, effectively filter out signal interference from the power supply to the flight controller's gyroscope, ensuring smoother flight performance.
And packaged with more useful features.
● Built-in barometer for accurate height calculation ● SD card slot can support up to 4GB Blackbox data* ● Dedicated DJI Air Unit connector for a quick digital build ● 5V & 9V Dual BECs now upgraded to both 3A output ● 4 x UARTs for your receiver + VTX + camera + GPS ● Power your GPS with a USB cable - no battery needed, No extra heat, no worries ● 22mm cutouts for FPV camera in your tight build
*Betaflight firmware requires the type of the microSD card to be either Standard (SDSC) or High capacity (SDHC) under 32GB, so extended capacity cards (SDXC) are not supported(Many high-speed U3 cards are SDXC). Also the microSD card MUST be formatted with the FAT16 or FAT32 (recommended) format, you could use any SD card less than 32GB, but the Betaflight can only recognize 4GB maximum. We suggest you use this3rd party formatting tooland choose 'Overwrite format' then format your card. Also check outherefor the recommended SD cards or buy thetested cardsfrom our store.

Right away, this is the best 65mm Whoop I know. Not even close.
I ordered two, one is more or less stock, just the PEEK motor screws and V3 cockroach. The second is upgraded to 0702 27000kV but will go back because I like the 25000kV more because of smoother throttle response and perfect betaflight tune.
Now the but:
1. On both quads I had to replace the BeeEye for a spare one because both are out of focus.
2. the yellow props were way too loose and very brittle. I lost two on my maiden. Black, blue and red are very tight (too tight for such a fragile prop) but if you get them on without bending them, they will last.
3. why does the quad not come with the lighter frame right away?
4. PH2.0…. You know the drill.
On that price point, even after the frame and PEEK upgrade I can forgive these quality issues. Especially considering the great tune and quality FC and motors. But be sure to order a replacement cam and props right away.
This was kind of a late night lark. I'd seen this upgrade for the Mk3 for a while and pondered whether it was a gimmick or not, and I'm pleased to say it's a genuinely good upgrade. It has reduced the noise of my Mk3 considerably. I haven't noted any significant increase in print quality, but the old drone of the bed is gone and that's completely worth it.
when i received mine the box and everything was not damaged but when i opened it the canopy was cracked and the VTX did not work when i tried my first battery. I'm alright with the vtx being DOA as all i really wanted was the motors and beeeye camara, But when i reached out to customer service i was blamed for crashing it (even tho i never flew it). beware the QC is total garbage. save your money and buy a Mobula6 from a reputable company like GetFPV for RDQ's. I wasn't going to write a review but after the email i received i don't want anyone else getting scammed.
I had a very personable experience shopping with my drone your team took the time to help me purchase exactly what I and also identified the additional accessories that I may need to purchase that way I would not have post purchase regret. I will definitely be shopping there again for more flight systems and accessories.
