Let's build a super cheap quad together! This is step four of the Bacon's Budget Build sub $250 FPV drone build, and it is time to get all of the firmware flashed and put this thing in the air. In the last step, we installed the SpeedyBee F405 v3 flight controller, TX800 VTX, Runcam Phoenix 2 camera, and ELRS receiver. This step will cover getting all of the firmware flashed to our flight controller and ESC, as well as loading up my custom tune, checking motor direction, unlocking the VTX, and setting up our radio modes. If you are a building newb, this step by step guide will get you to the finish line...and if you are a pro maybe I can show you some new tips!
