ImmersionRCs XuGong v2pro Unboxing, Build, Review

by RCSchim | January 5, 2015 | (5) Posted in Reviews

This is the newest folding Quadcopter from ImmersionRC. It compares to the TBS Discovery pro whilst being smaller and lighter. You can fold the arms to get a really small packingsitze - it fit's perfect in a backpack or trolley.

8:28 Build pics and vid
10:33 ezUHF RSSI / PPM Setup hint
14:30 Maidenflight in just outside my hangar
18:04 Some FPV footage (incl camswitch and live view) on the field

Main features:

  • Brushless gimbal (2 axis) (tiltable in relative or proportional mode - not like Zenmuse where it's absolute position)
  • Gopro liveout AND FPV cam - switchable
  • integr. ezOSD in Multicopter special edition which gets GPS from Naza
  • very light so 20mins flighttime with 5200mah 4cell (Multistar @ HK)

►Infos on this Quad:
Propulsion Set from DJI called E300
ESCs: DJI 15amp
Motors: DJI 920kv (Phantom2 style)
Props: std. "Phantom2 Props"

Weight: 1085gr
(all except flightbattery which was 343gr)
so roughly 1,4kg min flightweight with small battery

Radio: Taranis, ezUHF JR Module
Video: ImmersionRC 5.8, CWL Antennas SPW to Goggles int.RX

►Naza Settings:
light battery - 90-100% Gains everywehere
heavy battery: go down with gains a bit (best to assign roll and pitch gains to X2 so you can set it while flying).

►Power consumption:
ezOSD showed 13,7amps in Hover - really nice!
Modified ezOSD here shows mah/min consumption as well (gave me 230-250mah/min).

►RSSI Feature:
used ezUHF4ch RX with Firmware 1.51!
had to use ImmersionRC Tools 1.40.5!
than choose 10ch, and use the "Configure for XuGong Pro" Button (PPM sum on CH1, Upstat on PPM10)

►Pricetag (as of 5.1.15):
200€ for Frame (incl. ezOSD)
200€ for Brushless gimbal (with controller)
109€ DJI e300 pack
129€ DJI Naza Lite (or better)
~70€ VideoTX
70€ ezUHF 4ch lite RX
+ Gopro, Fatshark, Antennas...

Hi, nice review! I have ordered one myself now too! Just wondering, where were you able to get the Immersionrc tools 1.40.5? I have looked on their site but it only seems to have 1.40!

Thanks!
