The parts database is limited to the parts in the catalogs of the stores that DIYFPV is linked to: https://www.diyfpv.com/catalog/stores. Unfortunately, it seems none have that part listed yet.

The Build from Photos option is still in development and in the beta phase because we want to focus on the parts currently in the catalog.

Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for your willingness to help! Hopefully there are some other parts of yours you can help with in the meantime!

To add to tpetersons reply, there are often pads that are used by the manufacturer to test the part after production, and we don't need these. I typically go to the company's website and look for a pinout or a user manual to get or verify any information I can't infer. If you can't find what you need, do your best, and the reviewers can help you get the correct values. Just leave a comment pointing to things you're unsure about.

I understand your frustration with the expectations, we want every pad to be as accurate as possible because people will be using this tool to plan their drones wiring. If it says the wiring is right in the builder, but it's really wrong, they could end up frying their new components, so we try to be as accurate as possible.

Here’s the Mario 5 documentation, it looks like the main stack screws are the 25mm screws.

I think the 30mm screws are for an optional rear stack.

Yep, it's up to the community to create the parts used within the builder before it can be used. Click on Draw New Part and pick a part to contribute!
There's a helpful video in the lower left of the page that explains how to design new parts.

Left a review on product ToolKitRC Q6AC 1000W 50A 1-6S Quad Channel AC/DC Smart Charger - Black

A beast of a charger

This charger is a beast, it charges up to four batteries at a time, supports a myriad of different battery types and options, and has USB A and C outputs. It works great, and I never have any issues.

Quick and easy

I have the red one, and it works perfectly! I love that I can power it with USB C, a larger battery, or a barrel jack with 6-26v. The screen is easy to read, and the UI is easy to figure out.

I’ve looked into it a bit, it’s not easy at all.

Nice flying! I was staying in St George recently to do some canyoneering in Zion National Park. I wish drones were allowed in National Parks, it was amazing!

Assuming all the parts are really compatible with 6S batteries, yes. Double check your FC, ESC, and VTX to be absolutely certain though.

If your motors have a higher KV rating specifically designed for 4S batteries, you should probably limit the maximum throttle in Betaflight so you don’t burn out the motors.

When I flew my first custom drone the first time. It wasn’t any special flying, but the drone was one I had built myself, picking each part based on exactly what I wanted. The feeling of exhilaration when it took off and flew flawlessly the first time was incredible.

Great radio!

Fantastic radio! I bought this a few months ago to start on Velocidrone and Uncrashed, and have used it for my Air65 tiny whoop and my custom 5" build. It works great for simulator flying and real flying!

Works great!

It's been working great paired with my TBS Unify Pro32 HV.

Works great!

Had no issues binding, and it's been working great on my 5" build! The tiny size is incredible, and easy to mount anywhere on the frame.

Great motors!

Not only do they look really cool, but they perform well (amazing for the price)! I've tested mine with 4S, 5S, and 6S batteries, and while I prefer the higher speed and power with 6S, I found they run surprisingly well with 4S and 5S.

Great!

Lightweight, high-quality, and easy to mount!

Left a review on product TBS Unify Pro32 HV 25-1000mW 5.8GHz VTX - MMCX

Powerful VTX

Used in a 5" build recently, it has been easy to set up and use, and it provides a very clean video feed! I would recommend mounting it directly to the frame with thermal tape for improved heat dissipation at higher output levels.

Left a review on product TBS Source One V6 5 inch Frame Kit

Good, Sturdy frame!

This frame was a breeze to build in! There is plenty of room for components. There is no noticeable vibration when flying, and it's very strong and sturdy (It's already survived a few crashes completely unscathed!).

Left a review on product Flywoo Goku H743 Pro V2 55A 128K 30x30 AM32 Stack

Awesome Stack!

Used in a 5" Freestyle build with the Source One v6 frame. The stack screws that came with the frame were too short, so I bought some longer (30mm) screws that worked. Other than that, my experience with this stack has been fantastic so far! It has plenty of processing power and storage, and supports all the features I needed. The onboard barometer is a nice touch as well.
