FUS SPARTAN V3 Review: Everything you need to know about this budget toothpick micro

28/8/2020

2 Comments

 
The FUS Spartan V3 is the first fully assembled quadcopter from FUS. It is a toothpick style micro with AIO FC/ESC and larger than normal 1104 5400kV motors. Most noticeably it has a VERY low price - just $85 before any discounts are applied (read on for those). In this review we will take a close look at components and the build quality. I'll share my recommended ESC and betaflight tune including VTX tables and of course review flight performance on 2s and 3s batteries including DVR. I'll also recommend a better set of propellers than the stock ones they are delivered with plus other cheap or free improvements.

Breaking down the specifications piece by piece
All of the components used are off the shelf parts meaning replacing or upgrading is a very straightforward affair. Below are all the parts that make up this assembled quad:
Picture
JHEMCU 20A AIO FC/ESC. Whether by good luck or by good planning, FUS have ended up with one of the most reliable AIO boards on the market the will easily power this quad on 2-4s. Can't have asked for a better unit here.
Picture
DYS BE1104 motors. These have been around a long time, in fact they were the very first motors I ever reviewed on this site. The key weakness of these motors were the awful wires but since this is pre-soldered, not so much an issue.
Picture
Runcam Nano 2 Camera. Best budget cam around. There is no available menu but this keeps it simple and keeps the cost down. Really nice image as you can see in my DVR below.
Picture
FE200T 25/100/200MW VTX. This little VTX is better that I though now that I have the right VTX table. Check out the DVR below running on just 25mW
Picture
FUS Spartan V3 Frame. I'm a little worried about the long term durability but the thin arm design allows for excellent airflow off the props. 3d print designs are very well thought out and nicely printed. Not available separately at time of writing, I'll link when it is.
Picture
Gemfan 65mm biblade props. Nice props but no good for the weight of this quad. I recommend the Gemfan flash 2540 but more on that below.
As you can imagine at this price there are NO extras - just a budget battery strap, the one set of props and the instructions. Good, I''ll be replacing the strap and props anyway so glad resource wasn't wasted there. Now I come to think of it, "spartan" is an great description when it comes to describing the contents of the package. Sorry, dad joke (not really sorry).

Eachine Tyro79: Build tips, Setup and Review

1/3/2019

Picture
The Eachine Tyro79 is the second in Eachine's Tyro series, the first being the budget Tyro99 5 inch quadcopter kit. The most astonishing thing about this quadcopter kit is it's price - it is only $79 for a 3" kit. Clearly there have been areas where Eachine have cut costs but they've made a suprisingly good quad given those compromises.
