    Problem During Split-S

    big hard bounces can mean to much P gain. A soft bounce is to low and a hard bounce is to high. Keep that antigravity kinda low or it can cause the same bouncing im my experience. My PIDs ended up being way lower than default. right out the gate D was to high and caused motors to over heat...

    PID Tuning with Airmode?

    So it turns out anti-gravity gain was the cause of my tuning problems. Kept getting noise and a lot of nose movement after throttle ups. Couldnt get it to go all the way away with PID changes. Turned anti-gravity down from 15 to 5 and everything smoothed out.

    PID Tuning with Airmode?

    Ive got a better understanding of it now. It basically just keeps the PIDs working even during min throttle. Just turning off blade stop doesnt necessarily keep PIDs functioning. changing your throttle min closer to actual min will do mostly the same thing. Ive just got 2 of my rate profiles...

    PID Tuning with Airmode?

    Hmmm. Not my understanding or experience with airmode at all. It seems to be a fully functioning system that uses gyro input to stabilize, not just higher min throttle. thats why there is airmode bounce and some crazy things that happen when you get to close to something and there is air...

    PID Tuning with Airmode?

    It seems to me that tuning should be done without airmode on. what do you guys think. Airmode seems like it masks flaws in the tune.

    AKK X2P 800mW Range Test

    Tree interference is definitely one of the things im trying to improve.

    Rotor direction

    GJH's explanation kinda says no and I agree. same axis has same direction, not front and back. Yaw would be impossible in my thinking. You would flip or spin every time you tried to yaw. What you are trying to do sounds unneeded to me. What makes quads special is the 4 or more independent...

    Crushed by the love of FPV

    The way I practice sucks a little fun out of it. Ocd and methodical can make you good but be frustrating at the same time. I have to approach every part of flying from the physics side first, and this can make it take longer to learn a trick. I have to be able to see the forces at work, in my...

    Rotor direction

    Quads fly on the premise of apposing centrifugal forces to maintain stability. They use speed variation between all motors to give tilt in a specific direction. Eg. Want to flip forward you decrease throttle on the front two motors and increase on the back two. Want to yaw CCW direction then...

    Rotor direction

    Left Front = CW Right Front = CCW Left Rear = CCW Right Rear = CW They can be opposite of this but the configuration has to be the same. when I had trouble remembering which way they all went I just remembered that it looked like it was pulling food into its mouth and butt and throwing it out...

    Happy Birthday mozquito1

    Happy Day! Why limit it to just one? We are Drone Pilots. We never have a worry in our little hearts. All our parts work flawlessly, and never need replacing. The sky is always partly overcast and the breeze is always tame. Trees bend from our path in shier respect and awe. Well, these are...

    Need help with FPV system!!!

    does not sound like your vtx is transmitting. if its the camera side broken it will show OSD on a black/gray screen. If its the flight controller then you will have black/gray screen but no OSD. If you get nothing but static your vtx is not powering on or is in the wrong frequency range from...

    DrAbsurd's Highway to Fail!

    Tried to power loop with a spin on something a hair to long. Nice hard smack at the end.

    Drone suggestion with flexible battery pack

    The drones youre talking about already have this info readily available. Building your own drone and creating something anyone could buy and add would be the better choice. HD Drones (Flying Cameras) are the only ones that this would apply to because Acro and race drones have an extremely...

    What is a good freestyle quad?

    Trust me, you can bend it. Had to take mine off and pound it with a sledge hammer to get both sides straight again.
