You get the BumbleBee!\u201d<\/em>&nbsp; The BumbleBee is a collaboration between iFlight and Laurent Athenol who is the maker of the BeeBumper frame. This BNF has received mixed reviews from reviewers being outperformed by most of the competition while at a higher price point. This cinewhoop is made for angle mode cinematic flying, while flying steady and smooth it performs like a beast, as soon as you start going wild on the stick it bucks you off like a wild horse<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cinewhoop comes as a BNF for analog and DJI. We got the analog 4S version which will be the cheaper option costing you around 300$. You can chose your receiver that will come preinstalled and tucked away in a 3d printed part. On the iFlight web site you can get accerories like TPU GoPro mounts and ND filters, if you dont own a 3D printer this is a must since a cinewhoop is meant to capture HD footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IFlight&#8217;s BumbleBee is the one most capable cinewhoop on the market by specs, only out-speced by the Holybro Kopis CineWhoop for a simmilar price.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_b41dfa-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_b41dfa-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap) >

The frame it self is a unibody design, meaning if you break an arm you have to replace the whole top or bottom plate. The design of the frame it self is pretty simple, just two plates with standoffs to support the foam and 3d printed PLA ducts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main problems with this frame design is that if you want to work on the quadcopter, you have to take off the whole top plate held by 12 screws, but lets be honest you will do that not more than twice. The real problem is that the ducts are PLA and not TPU. In a few crashes the PLA ducts are the first to crack, than the frame. To be honest the PLA ducts are not even necessary they just add weight and after taking them off you save about 50 grams and add some much needed thurst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about cinewhoops and their design check out our&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/dronenodes.com\/cinewhoop-cinematic-fpv-drones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cinematic fpv drone<\/a>&nbsp;Guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FLIGHTCONTROLLER + ESC + VTX STACK<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/dronenodes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Stack-with-PropGuards-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>All iFlights products use their electronics, love them or hate them, the Succex-e stack is one compelling 20&#215;20 stack.

First off change props, Ive tested 6 different sets and the Gemfan Flash 3052 were the ones with the least propwash while cruising. The wind is a huge factor with a cinewhoop, even a weak gust will interfere.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the best performance you wil have to flash the newest version of BLHeli_32 and Betaflight. Set the PWM Frequency to 48Khz, enable RPM filtering and disable airmode. On newer versions of betaflight the tune is not a factor in flight performance, what you want to focus on is filtering. Try experimenting with filtering but you shouldn&#8217;t slide all the way to the right since the whole frame is one big bell resonanting vibrations, filtering is really important on this quadcopter even with the whole stack suspended in gummies.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id_3d03d1-cc alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{display:flex;}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kt-row-column-wrap > .kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f{align-self:center;}.kt-inner-column-height-full:not(.kt-has-1-columns) > .wp-block-kadence-column.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f{align-self:auto;}.kt-inner-column-height-full:not(.kt-has-1-columns) > .wp-block-kadence-column.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_d6c2b9-0f\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<p>After the setting applied and new props installed the BumbleBee performs just like the cinewhoop is was meant to bee!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_4b5e0f-89 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_4b5e0f-89\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/giphy.com\/embed\/j0vkhRR70mzp3lJfds\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" frameBorder=\"0\" class=\"giphy-embed\" allowFullScreen><\/iframe><p><a href=\"https:\/\/giphy.com\/gifs\/j0vkhRR70mzp3lJfds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">via GIPHY<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CONCLUSION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The iFlight BumbleBee will be remembered as the one of the worst 3&#8243; cinewhoops being outperformed by allmost all competition while being more expensive and heavier. But the platform has potential, we have seen many files on thingyverse with real ducts for 3&#8243; props that should give this quadcopter the thrust it desperately needs. The main question is should you buy it? And the answer might dissapoint you. Propably not, Cinewhoops are tools not toys, made to capture HD footage and not rip at a field. If you dont have time and patience to tame this beast you should look elsewhere.
