I AM AT MY WIT'S END! I have been trying to make my first tinywhoop(though I have successfully made several 5in racers) work for 4 months now and i am just at a loss for words. No matter what I change, it never has enough power to get more than 3 inches off the ground at full throttle. Here are the parts im using:
FC-
Crazepony F3 Whoop Pro Bruhsed Flight Controller Build-in OSD FC w/ 4pcs Rubber Damper Buffer Set for Tiny Whoop Blade Inductrix FPV Micro Drone (No Receiver Version)

MOTORS and PROPS-
BETAFPV Beta65S 65mm Whoop Frame Kit 3.6g V4 Version with 7x16mm 19000KV Brushed Motors Compatible with Tiny Whoop Racing

RECIEVER-
usmile FS82 2.4G Micro receiver for Flysky Micro Carbon Fiber Quad Frame FPV racing drone Support for AFHDS 2A IBUS PPM FS-I4,FS-I6,FS-I6X,FS-I10,FS-GT2E, FS-GT2G,FS-GT2F, Turnigy Evolution


BATTERIES-
6pcs GNB 260mAh HV 1S LiPo Battery 30C 3.8V LiHV for Tiny Whoop JST-PH 2.0 Powerwhoop mCPX Connector

Frame was printed in PLA and the camera was bought in store, it uses 5v off the fc and so does the reciever.

At this point Iv'e gone through 4 different FCs , 2 sets of motors, 2 different receivers, 3 different sets of batteries, and a whole lot of frustration. If you have any ideas why it can barely fly, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!! Thanks for your time.
 
it never has enough power to get more than 3 inches off the ground at full throttle.
Just to make sure, have you ever actually tested a battery fresh off the charger with a meter? Maybe you got a bum charger. Those LiHVs should read ~4.35V.
 
Is it on stock settings or did you tinker.
Did you max the stick out.
Don't go that small but maybe the step up is bust as it has to convert upto 5v from
A 3.8v or as the cowboy says 4.5lihv
To power the board. It sounds like it's only getting a louzy 3.8v at a low constant rate.
Battery charger
Battery or
Esc is only receiving 3.8v & no amps hardly.
I got fat fingers so not much exp with them parts. Hope it helps
Can't hurt to have a spare to go off.
Post a pic of the stack.
