    How to fly like a PRO

    you can actually watch the little 3d quad in the viewport on bottom right of the receiver tab to make sure it is moving how you expect based on stick input as well, I don't know if it shows actual rate profile effects there but will show you if the quad is just drifting left or right with no...

    Fatshark problem

    Contact Fat Shark customer support. I haven't had to work with them directly myself but from what I have heard they will help as much as possible with regard to getting issues resolved up to the point of having goggles sent in for repair, but they should be available to answer questions it's...

    How to fly like a PRO

    Yah you can also try messing with the rc or super rate I forget which one honestly but will help to flatten the mid stick movements so they don't create big twitchy reactions but can still go high rates at the ends. From what I've heard you still want the full 1000-2000 range but can reduce the...

    Noob Emax Hawk Pro binding issues

    If feeling adventurous can try flashing to new version but you'll need to find the right target and probably want to save a "diff" and current version of firmware

    Noob Emax Hawk Pro binding issues

    Yah I think it depends on how updated your firmware is cause they merged them into a single bind_rx command I think but not sure which version it changed in, could be the receiver doesn't support it but I have a tiny hawk 2 and works on that one. Definitely post back if you hear back from emax...

    Mysterious Crash of my F11 4k pro

    Yah if it is a brushed tiny whoop then only harm it'll do is getting caught in someone's hair but anything bigger without guards on the props is dangerous for sure.

    Continuity between antenna's two solder pads

    You may need to clean up the board with some flux remover to see better if there are any bits of metal connecting the two pads but I wouldn't expect them to be connected.

    Continuity between antenna's two solder pads

    No the two parts soldered down from an antenna are 1 GND for the shielding and 2 the typically solid wire for the antenna itself which should be hooked to the output of the amplifier circuit so I don't think you should have continuity between them if everything is removed.

    4DRC M1 Foldable GPS Drone with 4K F

    Think of it this way 25% of people who paid good money for it weren't happier than 3 stars... people like to convince themselves (all of us) that the things we buy are "worth it" so at least 25% of people couldn't justify the $300 cost. If you are just looking for something to cruise around and...

    4DRC M1 Foldable GPS Drone with 4K F

    Always check the 1 star reviews, this one has a lot of them based on that alone I would be very wary: https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews//B082G3BQY5/ref=acr_dpx_hist_1?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=one_star&reviewerType=all_reviews#reviews-filter-bar

    Mysterious Crash of my F11 4k pro

    Also see some questionable pictures/videos from people flying DJI gear (not just them but a lot of it is them), don't fly over roads, don't fly over people don't fly over 400ft if in the US, keep it safe so it stays as open/legal to us all as possible. Even the best built quad can have a solder...

    Mysterious Crash of my F11 4k pro

    Looking at the 1 star reviews on amazon (filtered down to them by clicking ratings then selecting one star) see a few others who had a similar experience and even after repairing had similar issues. It might just be there is a lot more wifi noise in the area around your house vs going out in...

    How many drones have you owned?

    Toy grade I had like 3 or 4 holystone and airhogs stuff from big box stores. Then 3d printed a frame and built based on one I found on thingiverse/youtube. Was a 5" with hefty 2200mah 3S battery (now use 1300-1500 4S on my 5" builds). Pretty sure that first one also used CC3D and libre pilot...

    How to fly like a PRO

    Also I typically tie air mode to turning off angle mode so once in acro air mode is on, if you bump something like when landing and have air mode on it can over react so nice to be able to have it off for take off or landing if using angle mode, in acro I just take off as soon as I arm since air...

    How to fly like a PRO

    Also just a bit of clarification in the end I think acro mode in fpv all the time is the best, but getting there think it's okay to use angle mode as a bit of a crutch to avoid slamming things into the ground. When you do switch to acro mode you'll find you need to make adjustments to your...

    How to fly like a PRO

    If flying angle mode and things drifting make sure to calibrate accelerometer with the quad perfectly level (or as close as possible) and untouched during calibration. If that doesn't solve it in angle mode can try putting in "correction" for the accelerometer. Granted all quads will drift a...

    Aux 5 not working on betaflight

    Also worth noting you can use different values from one aux channel to activate different modes and can mix switches into a single aux channel so can use more switches with less channels: Looks like he jb has updated vid related to this:

    Aux 5 not working on betaflight

    Will try to explain but it is fairly confusing. First off betaflight doesn't really limit you here the aux channels depend on how many channels beyond 4 your receiver and transmitter support. So if you have a receiver that is 8 channel then you can get 4 regular control channels (throttle...

    Noob Emax Hawk Pro binding issues

    Hey so dunno on that specific one but there is/are some bind commands you can use at the CLI of betaflight to get it into binding mode I think with latest betaflight configurator there is a button in the receiver tab to get it into binding mode as well. Most of the modern receivers allow some...

    How to fly like a PRO

    Also also we all crash a lot when we learn so fly safe and don't be down if you have to replace props or eventually a motor or esc it's basically par for the course.
