I need help seeing if my drone parts all work together or if theres anything missing can someone help me

#

I’m going for more range instead of manoeuvrability

sleek briar
#

the motors are too small, the batteries are probably terrible, the flight controller is unsupported and the frame is very bad

#

the receiver, camera and vtx are fine

#

although you might want a diversity receiver if the goal is long range

#

The batteries are 2600mah 60c

sleek briar
#

it may also be worth going with a lion pack

#

you will get much longer flight times

I was trying to order everything from 1 place

What’s quad?

sleek briar
#

quadcopter

slow lion
#

I’ve had a prebuilt drone years ago otherwise yes

sleek briar
#

fpv or not?

slow lion
#

No

#

It was a dji one

#

i would not recommend 7" or long range as your first fpv drone at all

slow lion
#

Why so

sleek briar
#

a 7" is big enough to kill you if you make a mistake

slow lion
#

I’m not interested in doing manoeuvres or anything like that

slow lion

#

and an unexperienced pilot attempting long range is a quick way to lose it

slow lion
#

I was gonna practice on my pc first

Get atleat 20 30 hours in on simulators then try fly it

sleek briar
#

my recommendation wont change

slow lion
#

I mean 5 to 7 inches isnt that big of a difference

sleek briar
#

it is, and i wouldn't recommend you get a 5" either

#

if you really want to do lr start with a 3-4" nano longrange build or bnf and work your way up

#

they are still capable of long distances and flight times

slow lion
#

Most beginner guides I’ve seen actually all start with 5 inches

Not sure if you mean throttling to hard so that it runs into your or something else

sleek briar
#

a 7" prop could probably remove fingers

Same thing with driving a car

#

hurting other people is also a concern that’s why you go to a empty large area

#

Would these motors fit
