This kit is HD Ready and compatible with either the DJI O3 or Walksnail systems. The FPV system is not included, which allows you to add your own that can be purchased separately.

Joshua Bardwell, Lumenier, and Xilo have partnered up and put together a list of all the components with an easy-to-follow step-by-step build guide to assemble, build, tune, and fly this revolutionary QAV-S 2 drone.

What’s New?
This HD Ready DIY Kit has been developed and designed with the addition of the long-awaited QAV-S 2 frame! Lumenier and Xilo have been working side by side with Joshua Bardwell on multiple features to make this kit even better than the last:
New Airframe Design: The QAV-S 2 – Joshua Bardwell Edition frame optimizes the space and weight for a 5” quad design, with a low profile body for electronics, enough space to fit an Analog or Digital Video System, engineered center of gravity when carrying an Action Camera, and strong and structured design that is meant for hardcore freestyle.
X-Lock Arm Mechanism: The Lumenier QAV-S 2 Bardwell SE introduces a new lateral X-Lock arm system! This all-aluminum arm locking system improves on the QAV-S design in both rigidity and ease of use, providing two-axis clamping that is mechanically isolated from the main plates and flight controller stack. The new lock system also allows the arms to fold with only one screw for easy transportation.
O3, Vista, and Walksnail Compatible Mounting: The rear plate adds 25.5 M1.6 mount holes to allow direct mounting of the O3 air unit to the frame. This frame can also house the Vista/Walksnail system in rear-mounting orientation. (HDZero works in center-mounting orientation with FC or ESC in the rear.)
Aluminum FPV Camera Plates: The new FPV camera mounting solution offers excellent camera protection and support for a range of cameras. The use of a unique interlocking system allows for minimal hardware and strengthens the front end while staying lightweight.
Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS HD READY KIT AND THE ANALOG KIT?
The “HD Ready” kit comes without an FPV system so you can choose your own HD system to add to your build. The analog kit includes the analog FPV video transmitter and camera.
WHAT IF I CRASH? ARE THERE SPARE PARTS AVAILABLE?
Yes! GetFPV carries all the parts included in this bundle as individual spare parts as well. So fly hard, and have no fear! If you need a replacement part, we’ve got you covered and plan to support this kit and all the parts for a long time.
IS THIS DRONE KIT GOOD FOR BEGINNERS?
Yes! No matter your skill level, this kit is made for you! We take the guesswork out of picking parts by compiling all the gear together in one easy to assemble kit. This all-inclusive bundle pairs together proven components that are guaranteed to work well together, making the build easy for you.
Not only do you get all the parts, but XILO has partnered with the renowned FPV instructor Joshua Bardwell with a full step-by-step build guide. This build guide takes you from start to finish, building, setup, tuning, flying, radio setup, binding, updating, and more! All you have to do is follow the instructions in the video and you’ll be flying your own freestyle FPV drone in no time!
I’M NEW TO FPV AND HAVE NOTHING. DOES THIS KIT HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED TO GET STARTED?
This bundle comes with everything the “drone” itself needs except the radio receiver and FPV System. If you are just getting into FPV and don’t have anything yet there are a few key components you will need in addition to this kit to be able to fly. Please check out our “Additional Suggested Parts” list below for suggestions. The good news is most of these parts you can use across multiple drones, so it is an upfront investment, but you won’t have to necessarily buy them for every drone you build.
You will need the following in addition to this kit if you don’t already have them:
FPV Goggles / Video Receiver
FPV VTX/Camera System
Tools for Building
Battery Charger
Radio Receiver
Flight Batteries
Radio

Let customers speak for us
I ripped the factory grip disassembling the controller, this is the perfect replacement.
The support is great 👍🏻
Awesome product I highly recommend
Perfect little case, fits perfectly apart from the brake trigger guard which I snapped pushing it in. I use the large one and it was just a tiny bit too big. I know I'll only have to shave off a bit of the foam, but before that order a new large guard. Could've done with a shoulder strap too, but for the pricy the quality is right up there. Thank you.
the base adapter is great for update firmware easier than using the battery.
Great replacement wheel for the original steering wheel
Fast delivery to the uk and the fit on the controller was perfect and looks awesome too, Happy customer.😎
Fits my nb4+ perfectly, if you have the the pro with the handle attached the foam will need a slight cut to allow it to fit properly.
Perfect!! Took me about 10 minutes to swap out and worked with no issues.
Fantastic support, was very helpful in deciding with which upgrade to get
It works right out of the box
I wish i could store GPS information somehow
Maybe it is possible
I ordered springs for my Noble NB4 radio, fast shipping, packaged well and a good price. I was very happy so I ordered another set. I shared the information with the other racers at the track
Hi, I bought a new FLYSKY NOBLE NB4+ RADIO CONTROLLER for my RC NO PREP OUTLAW DRAG RACING PROGRAM I've got 3 RC Drag Racing Cars that I race and the Radio Controller is Awesome and so a couple weeks go by and I see the NOBLE PRO+ get released and I was going to order one until I seen that SOARSKY which is "AWESOME" by the way was going to start selling the NOBLE NB4 PRO+ HIGH BRIGHT SCREEN AND MOTHERBOARD UPGRADE KIT for only ($258.00) so I jumped all over that and I ordered it and it got to me super fast it was around a week or so and I watched the video that SOARSKY had made of how to install it on my NOBLE NB4+ and by doing so I simply turned my NOBLE NB4+ into the NOBLE NB4 PRO+ and it came in the (EN) version and mine had already been updated to version (1.6) which was AWESOME and as far as the install went it was very easy to do especially with SOARSKY doing the install video for it and after I got done with the install I went through the whole system and checked to make sure that everything was working properly and it works absolutely perfect I'm very very impressed with the new FLYSKY NOBLE NB4 PRO+ that I now have just by simply doing a UPGRADE of changing out the NOBLE NB4+ SCREEN AND MOTHERBOARD to the NOBLE NB4 PRO+ HIGH BRIGHT SCREEN AND MOTHERBOARD UPGRADE KIT and not to mention I don't know of any other RADIO CONTROLLER brands that do this at all and nor do they have any kind of spare parts or as many optional parts and as many software updates as FLYSKY and I'm currently coming from FUTABA and I will not be going back period!!! I really want to (THANK YOU SOARSKY) and especially I want to THANK YOU (DANNYI) AND THE WHOLE (SOARSKY TEAM MEMBERS) FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP WITH THE WHOLE PROCESS OF GETTING THIS DONE FOR ME IN A ABSOLUTELY PROFESSIONAL AND TIMELY MANNER I HAVE BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE RC ENTHUSIAST WORLD FOR 40 YEARS AND I'VE NEVER EVER SEEN OR EXPERIENCED THE KIND OF COMPASSION AND DRIVE TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU THE CUSTOMER WAS ABSOLUTELY TAKEN CARE OF IN EVERY SINGLE WAY POSSIBLE AND FOR THAT I AM ABSOLUTELY GRATEFUL!!! GOD BLESS 🙏✝️🙏 SINCERELY MICHAEL (CLAY) BROWN AND TEAM🏁SPEED MOB RACING🏁
Are you wanting to be a pro? Do you need more adjustability of your steering and throttle requests? Then this is that radio. If you are not looking for the most tunable radio available, then I would recommend getting the NB4+ instead. This radio has so much potential for Nitro and electric racing that it can help you with those tenths you are missing.
This is a great upgrade for those wanting a shorter steering throw. Make sure to calibrate steering throw after installing it.
