The Flywoo HEXplorer LR 4S HD is a groundbreaking hexacopter that redefines the #MicroLongRange class. While the standard Explorer LR is built for pure endurance, the HEXplorer is built for payload and performance. Its six-motor configuration provides the extra thrust needed to carry a full GoPro while staying under 250g with a light LiPo. Featuring a high-end Goku F745 Hex Stack and NIN 1404 V2 motors, it offers up to 30 minutes of flight time on Li-Ion packs.

Product Description

The Flywoo HEXplorer LR 4 4S Hexa-copter is a unique "Micro Long Range" drone designed in collaboration with Dave_C FPV. By using six motors instead of four, it achieves the disc area of a 5-inch drone on a 4-inch platform, allowing it to carry a full-sized GoPro with much better stability and less noise than a traditional 4-inch quad.

  • Six-Motor Advantage: The "Hex" design increases the total disc area, significantly reducing the "disc load." This makes the drone much quieter than a 4-inch quad when carrying heavy batteries or cameras and provides smoother, more "locked-in" handling during freestyle.

  • Full GoPro Capability: Unlike most sub-250g 4-inch quads that struggle with the weight of a full action camera, the HEXplorer is optimized for it. It can carry a GoPro Hero 10/11/12 while still maintaining impressive agility.

  • Premium GOKU Hex Stack: Powering the six motors is the GOKU F745 16x16 Nano Stack. It features an F7 processor, built-in barometer, blackbox logging, and 7 hardware serial ports, making it one of the most powerful stacks ever put in a micro drone.

  • Integrated Bluetooth: A built-in Flywoo Bt-nano Bluetooth module allows you to connect to the SpeedyBee app on your phone. You can tune your PIDs or change flight settings at the field without ever needing a laptop.

  • Safety & Recovery:

    • Goku M8N Mini GPS V2.0: Faster satellite acquisition and better interference shielding.

    • Flywoo Finder V1.0: An independent, self-powered buzzer that will beep and flash for up to 5 hours even if the main flight battery is ejected in a crash.

  • Digital HD Feed: Equipped with the Caddx Vista (or RunCam Link) system and Nebula Pro/Wasp camera, providing a 720p/120fps low-latency digital feed compatible with DJI FPV Goggles.

Technical Specifications:

  • Motors: NIN 1404 V2 2750KV

  • FC & ESC: GOKU HEX F745 16x16 Nano Stack (13A ESCs)

  • Propellers: Gemfan 4024 2-blade

  • GPS: GOKU M8N Mini V2.0

  • Bluetooth: Flywoo Bt-nano

  • Buzzer: Flywoo Finder V1.0

  • Antenna: Atomic 5.8GHz LHCP

  • Weight: ~160g (Dry) / Sub-250g (with 750mAh 4S LiPo)

The Pilot's Reality Check:

  • Efficiency vs. Power: On a 4S 3000mAh Li-Ion pack, you can cruise for 25–30 minutes. However, the hexacopter configuration is slightly less efficient for pure cruising than a quadcopter; its true strength is the ability to carry a heavier camera while still being "Long Range."

  • Wind Resistance: Like all ultra-light 4-inch drones, it can be pushed around by strong gusts. The extra two motors help with stability, but it won't be as "heavy" in the air as a 7-inch long-range rig.

🤔 Frequently Asked Questions
  • Why six motors instead of four?

    The main advantage is reduced disc load. A standard 4-inch quad can feel "labored" when carrying a heavy action camera. The HEXplorer spreads that weight across six motors, making it quieter, smoother, and more capable of handling wind. It effectively gives you 5-inch power in a more compact, 4-inch-sized frame.

  • Can it really stay sub-250g?

    Yes, but it depends on the battery. With a 4S 650mAh–850mAh LiPo, the HEXplorer can stay under the 250g limit. However, if you use the 4S 18650 Li-ion pack for maximum flight time, the weight will exceed 250g (typically around 350g–370g AUW).

  • What is the flight time?

    - Cruising: ~10–15 minutes on a standard 4S 850mAh LiPo. - Long Range: Up to 30 minutes when using a 4S 3000mAh 18650 Li-ion pack. - Freestyle: ~5–7 minutes of aggressive flying on a high-discharge LiPo.

  • How does the Bluetooth module work?

    The HEXplorer features a built-in Flywoo BT-Nano module. This allows you to connect to the SpeedyBee App on your smartphone to change Betaflight settings, PIDs, or rates in the field without needing a USB cable or a computer.

  • Is the "Finder" buzzer different from a standard buzzer?

    Yes. It uses the Flywoo Finder v1.0, which has its own internal battery. If your main flight battery is ejected in a crash, the buzzer will automatically start beeping and flashing its LED for up to 4–5 hours, making it much easier to find the drone in tall grass.
