I'm building my own vtol as the off the shelf one I bought wasn't so hot. Going the quad plane route. Lift motors will be 2207/1700kv with 7 inch props (maybe I can go down to 6 inches and shorten the footprint of the booms a little). Forward motor will be a 2212/1400kv from ye ole value hobby.  |

Very cool? Is this what you are using the Speedy Bee in?

Very cool? Is this what you are using the Speedy Bee in? Yep, I have INAV 7 loaded up right now (the pre-release) and I have the motors sequenced, I need to finish configuring the board and AIO ESC for it and then I should be good. |

I haven't flown it yet, it was in paypal limbo. I was thinking of putting it together tonight, but I have momentum on this plane.... so there is that.

 I've been working slowly on this and my s1100. Got all the motors wired up, FC soldered up, and INAV 7.0 prerelease build on it. Getting close. I need to secure that 4 in 1 esc somehow. |

How long did I mess with this and I finally got it in the air?

We're getting better!
Still work to do, but I think we can call it functional, relatively safe, and at the just needs some fine tuning phase right now.
I also fixed the OSD, looks like I may be able to cruise around 5-6 amps. Not bad, but not great.

Just watched the latest video, looking like you are getting that dialed in. Nice work you got going on there, what is the camera you are using?

Thanks! I was about ready to post it up!
It is a cheapie aliexpress camera. I think I've recommended it before. I am going to upgrade the VTX so hopefully I can get better images. I just have a crappy antenna on 200mw right now.
I need to get a better battery, when I'm pulling 30a in transition, you see it is sagging down to 14.8 volts.
