Glad this helped. It's been a while, but from what I remember, that is correct. Most of my earlier builds I think had the regular stuff with no UV. (Going from memory. It's been 6 years since I made this video.)

​@PinchTune it's almost impossible to get the modified here in NYC. I tried everywhere. Once I found d someone selling on Walmart I got it but they sent the regular so I'll just use that after seeing your video. Thanks again!

Hi, occasionally. I plan to do more flying soon. I've been playing a lot of music and doing watersports again.

I don't know if I said 1:1 in the video. But that would be incorrect. 1:1 would mean it doesn't shrink a all. It's 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, etc.

Lol. I admit I had to look him up. I'm skinnier now after 6 years so I look different.

@PinchTune still doing electronic work? Heck yeah he's a good dude

@@DaftKermitThePunk Hi, I am... but I'm mostly doing guitar stuff these days. I still have all my FPV stuff but have been putting all my time into music and water sports again. Like, here: ruclips.net/channel/UCFyTdoHeYn7O2-XpHpI61Ww

I made this video years ago... so I don't remember what it has exactly, but I do coat the back too. But I wait for one side to dry first. It's possible in the video I had previously coated the other side. Thanks for watching, Danny.

Wow, I don't remember. It's been a while since this build. I think it was a T-Motor Pacer ESC with Pyro F4 board.

@@DannyCruzCreations gotcha . I just got a used whoopmaster 4 with these motors but it kills batteries

Glad to see this video is still helping people out.

Yes it is! You're welcome!

@@PinchTune Your sure the modified kind reacts to uv light??? Thanks

@@ryanjofre I recorded this video 5 years ago... so I don't remember if it's in this one, but I know I have footage where I show how I dry it more quickly. I use UV and a heat gun to dry it more quickly. Check my other videos on that channel. It's gotta be there somewhere. Be careful though. The heat gun can burn the coating. You want to heat it up a bit then just let it be, and then do it again maybe every 15 minutes.

Those can be tricky to unplug. I suggest a nice set of needle nose pliers that are not too pointy and get a good grip. Then, an assertive sharp tug will do the trick.

@@DannyCruzCreations so there is no trick like secret button or rotation. Just precisely used force, do I understand right?

@@DannyCruzCreations little update, I made a easy access to the plug and successfully unplugged it with my fingers and no tools. You helped me. Thanks!

@@ZapytajFotografa Hi, I just saw both replies. Glad you got it sorted!

@@DannyCruzCreations before success with fingers I ordered special tool.... it is on the way xD

Awesome. I use this technique for building guitar rigs now... which I'm doing a lot of lately.

@@DannyCruzCreations That’s what got me started w heat-shrink tubing. Now I’m fixing family members’ USB cables 😆

@@BogoEN Ah nice. Haha. I can't tell you how much stuff I fixed with heat shrink tubing all around the house. lol.

Hi Stacey, I appreciate that! I got back into playing music and into surf and wind sports. I still fly occasionally, and hope to create more content. But it's just that there's only so many hours in a day. :/

Thank you!

We've all done it at some point or another. Heal quick.

Hi, thanks! Yeah, I should. I've been playing a lot of music and got back into wind sports. I still fly some and expect to fly more... but we only have so many hours in a day. Haha. Thanks for stopping by though. I really appreciate it.

The tip and the jig saved me.

Ouch. Yep, these things can be vicious!

I use different settings depending on what I'm doing. This was 2 years ago... but I think I remember. 1. I'm fairly certain this was shot at 2.7k / 30FPS. 2. I usually run ISO and shutter auto, because in FPV, the light often changes... say, when I go under trees with shade. Of course, not the case here. But... I'm sure I had those two on auto... BUT I make sure I don't let it run the low light settings AND I also like to limit the ISO range. GoPro's can oftentimes pick an ISO that's too high and then that'll screw up the shutter speed and the footage will look like a flip-book. I think I cap it at 400 or 800 IIRC. Also, I almost always use an ND filter. It's possible I may have used a light ND4 here, but given the low light, it may have been one of those rare times I didn't use on.

Great to hear! Enjoy!

Pro tip: 90% isopropyl alcohol works for the flux removal.

Loving it and yes, if you do not solder your wires beforehand you will plug the holes like he said and you'll have to get that out of there to make it work. He's not doing it wrong, but I would solder the wires first and then you wouldn't have to worry about the conformal coating down in the holes because if you don't get it in the holes in the water gets in there you can have a rust problem. Another trick I have learned to make sure the connections work for your cameras and accessories. Plug them in first before you conformal coat. Let it dry then you can unplug them if necessary and you have a better chance of your connection being clean & waterproof.

Oh and that last note the weather the temperature that makes a difference too if you're up north or down south you definitely want the silicone if you're on the equator where I am I don't think it's going to matter too much compared to where they are.

Thanks man. That was actually great feedback. I didn't know of anyone that has used acrylic until now... My bottle is still new. lol

@@PinchTune 😏👍 if you're still living in the same location geologically as you were as the filming of this video, you might as well just leave it on the shelf.😁

Absolutely. Definitely more space in the Chameleon, but the Hyperlow is a much nicer and stiffer design. Enjoy though. It's still fun! I flew a Chameleon for a long time.

I've drilled out board before. In fact, I have a video somewhere about drilling out a board. But you can't do it with all boars. Some don't have any space between the holes and the components.

@@PinchTune Can you have a look at the flysky x6B and tell me if that one looks doable? It seems to me it does, but I don't want to break it!

Lol.

I think it's fine. It resists heat pretty well. Do keep in mind some powerful LEDs get really got. Maybe be careful with those.

@@PinchTune heats not the problem, the panel only gets 55c warm. What im concerned of is energy/flux loss.

Ahhhhh!! Us OGs unite! Haha. Thanks. Glad you see you came back.

(my tobacco pipe cracked and i only have 7x80mm heat shrinks)

Interesting. I have to try that.

Lol, you're right. My buddy and I still talk about this to this day.

Sweet, thanks! This appears to be one of my least watched videos... but, glad it's been of some help.

Hi, I know. I haven't posted much lately. Been super busy with other aspects of life. I did fly a day just recently with two other of the OG guys here in San Diego. I intend to keep flying. But the next few months are still going to be extremely busy. Thanks for asking.
