DJI FLAMEWHEEL KIT

Flamewheel F450 Build Why a F450 Flamewheel ARF Build? The DJI F450 Flamewheel is identical to the F330 except for a slightly bigger frame and 30 AMP ESCs instead of 20Amp ones. The DJI F450 Flamewheel ARF Kit only costs $10.00 more than the F330 but it has a few important advantages. Since it can use bigger props it can lift more and fly longer. It's wider stance means it handles a bit more smoothly and controllably than the F330. If you want to carry a GoPro camera and brushless gimbal its extra performance makes it a better fit than the F330. It is remarkably inexpensive and is nearly as agile and easy to control as its smaller Sport cousin. The F450 is a very well made copter that can well survive the mishaps of learning to fly and perform acrobatics when you are ready. Assembling the Copter Assemble the Frame components as shown following the same methods as described for the F330 Flamewheel Sport above. The illustrations included here for the FPV Pro can be used for assembly and wiring layout. The above image illustrates the method for suspending the Pixhawk flight controller between 4 standoffs using O-rings. You should also mount the Autopilot (APM shown in this build) on 4 Zeal or foam pads for dual vibration isolation. You should select the O-ring size so that the Pixhawk will stay in place on the standoffs, but will flex when you push on it. Setup and Additions Your FLIP FPV Pro can now be configured as described in the DIYDrones wiki for Pixhawk. There is space for a 3DR telemetry radio and / or an OSD and FPV transmitter on the side of the frame. An FPV camera can be mounted on the lower frame between the slots in front of the battery. If you use FPV keep it's transmitter and antenna well away from the GPS. The F450 is little copter is very high performance, fully acrobatic, very tough and it is a blast to fly. It is a larger than the F330 and a bit easier to learn to fly with it can also carry more and use a bigger battery and fly longer.

Why these two frames / ARF kits? The DJI Flamewheels have very simple and rugged X type quadcopter frames They are incredibly sturdy, with glass filled nylon frame arms the frames are very resiliant. They are compact and light and fly extremely well and they are very inexpensive. They will take incredible abuse without breaking and are an excellent first full sized quadcopter. They come in two sizes, The F330 with 8" propellers and the F450 which comes with 10" propellers. The genuine DJI ARF kits also come with excellent quality motors and ESCs at an exceptionally low price The F330 Flamewheel is a small high performance Quadcopter the can be used indoors or out. The F330 is a very high performance quadcopter even with inexpensive DJI Flamewheel motors. This super tough copter normally survives initial learning, requiring no more than a few replacement propellers. It is really a blast to fly and will encourage pushing your capabilities. The F330 comes with 8" propellers, 9" propellers can be used but the hubs will need to be reamed to fit. The F450 Flamewheel is a bit larger but has the same excellent performance as the F330. The F450 is an excellent high performance and very rugged outdoor quadcopter that you will enjoy for years. The F450 comes with 8" and 10" propellers and can use 11" ones, the bigger props give it a higher capacity than the F330. Although it isn't specifically designed for it the F450 can easily be made into a great first person view flyer. Even when you graduate to more complex camera carrying copters you will want to keep the F450 around for fun. It is even feasible to add landing gear, a brushless gimbal and GoPro camera to the F450. Both of these frames are easy and inexpensive to build up and result in fun to fly, sturdy and capable quadcopters. It is strongly recommended that you get a genuine DJI ARF kit only as the clones have no where near the quality.

The Flame Wheel 450 is an advanced multi-rotor flying platform designed for model builders who want to fully customize all aspects of their multi-rotor platform. With a DJI WooKong-M or NAZA autopilot system at the center of the F450, this multi-rotor can perform such actions as hovering, cruising, and even rolling with ease. Once fully configured and assembled, the Flame Wheel F450 is the perfect choice for aerial photography, first person video (FPV), and all other aeromodelling activities. This new version of the F450 combo comes with the upgraded E300 power system by DJI which includes 4 performance series motors, ESCs and propellers.

DJI Innovations have released the latest F450 & F550 E300 Flame Wheel Kits, they are supplied with the E300 series tuned propulsion systems, this is the first power solution of its kind designed for multi rotor aircraft. The E300 systems have greater aerodynamic efficiency and higher thrust-weight ratio over the old style motor and propellers. Using the E300 tuned propulsion systems delivers an increase in the reliability, stability and agility of the airframe.

DJI adheres to continuous innovating and improving, with the new firmware, new attitude stabilization algorithm and optimized hardware structure, the Naza-M V2 provides better flight performance. The innovative All-in-one design simplifies installation and saves space and weight. It contains inner damping, controllers, 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer and barometer in its light and small Main Controller. It can measure flying altitude, attitude and therefore can be used for autopilot/automatic controlling.
