  Where is the Front of a Drone
Posted by: soky157 - 46 minutes ago - Forum: Tutorials, Hacks and How-to - No Replies

Hello all. I have a Mobula 7. When in BFC in the Configuration Tab the Drone should face North according to the green arrow on the 3D Drone.  My question where is North on my Mobula 7?  Thanks for your time.

  Spring rebirth
Posted by: mstc - 2 hours ago - Forum: Videos - Replies (2)

Spring is here. Finally a day of warm, dry, and not too windy weather. The last time I flew was several months ago, but since then my vision has deteriorated to a point where I can no longer see well enough to drive, and feared my flying days were over too. 
I did buy a large 18" portable monitor and hoped the size would allow me to see better. That did not turn out well, immediately smashed straight into a wall, its like my brain/hands had absolutely no reaction. The next few attempts landed me on the roof. For the heck of it, I thought I'd give my goggles a try even though I knew I'd struggle with the smaller FOV.
Well surprise, surprise - maybe it was the immersion but everything just seemed to click, kind of like riding a bicycle. I still struggled to make out details, but I knew my backyard well enough to make my way around albeit with a lot more crashing. I was so ecstatic that I could still fly. That feeling is just amazing.

Ran through a bunch of drones. Some sloppy but very treasured flying. It was in the 20s that day, unfortunately temps have dropped back to 8 again Sad

Happy spring flying!!

  Changing Timestamp on Avatar mini 1s onboard recording
Posted by: Scro - 4 hours ago - Forum: Beginner Questions - Replies (3)

Video files recorded onboard the Bassline VTX (Avatar mini 1s lite) seem to have date/time stamps from 1st jan 2000, and I've yet to find somewhere to set the time/date. Anyone know where it gets its time/date from, and where that can be set to the right time/date? The only place I've found any time/date settings is on my RC and they've been set correctly.

  Ordered the HDZERO mob6 with the eco camera and 28k motors
Posted by: Rob Axel - 9 hours ago - Forum: Tiny Whoop & Micro Quad - No Replies

I had been thinking about building a “ultimate tiny whoop” .. but everytime I get notice of the 28-32k motors are “in stock” .. they are gone…
Been seeing reviews of this whoop, and was getting notifications of “pre-order” from suppliers.. to include HD ZERO..well, I since I needed (wanted) the HDzero program usb plug and HD zero was the only place I could locate it.. I placed the “pre-order” and noticed the “shipping date” to be sooner. (April 5th).
Well, I got a email today.. “your order has been shipped”.. knowing how this usually works they would probably ship the usb programmer first..NOPE! The are sending the whoop also! WOO HOO!!
Looks like I gotta locate a ELRS module for my Taranis ..

  Waterproof goggles/RC
Posted by: TavoLiveInDreams - Yesterday, 02:32 PM - Forum: Beginner Questions - Replies (4)

If I were considering spray conformal coating my orqa goggles, is there anything I should avoid? Like the barometer for INAV. Maybe the radio (RM pocket) too, I know avoid the gimbal movement area and I don't plan on standing in a storm. Just insurance.

  My first UAV experience and next steps
Posted by: UglyBob - 17-Mar-2024, 03:15 PM - Forum: Beginner Questions - Replies (4)

Hello, everyone!

Almost two months ago, I first spawned here in this forum asking for guidance to build my first quad, and to get started in this hobby. I was doing many things wrong, and I thank everyone here for the help and wise words.

I've played 44h hours of the Liftoff simulator in ACRO mode, here:



This is the video from when I was able to complete a lap for the first time. I was quite excited, and I can say I have improved a bit since then. This is fun.

I have settled my initial setup to be a Jumper T20 2.4GHz radio, a HappyModel Mobula 8 with Walksnail digital VTX, and a Walksnail Goggles X. But this is not the only things I had to buy. In fact, quite a lot of things. Chargers, batteries, cables, security items, etc. So I ended up building a Google Sheets online spreadsheet to track all my investment into UAV, as a new hobby.

The total amount I've spent was of R$10,156.05 (BRL - Brazilian Real). Which, on the date of today, is equivalent to $2,032.71 USD. Even considering the abusive importation/customs tax in Brazil, most of the items were able to bypass the fiscal audit, as Banggood and other websites have their "techniques" to do so. If not, the total amount could go up to 60% higher.

Here's the complete spreadsheet.

Notice I've bought myself an ammo box, a LiPo guard bag, a Tuya smoke detector, a Tuya siren and a fire extinguisher.  ROFL

This is my setup at the field:

Yesterday was the moment to put it in practice. And it worked! I can definitely say that without the time I've spent on the simulator, it was going to be a disaster. But everything went quite nice. I'm still learning the basics, tho.

I've recorded a video of the flight yesterday:



It was all in ACRO mode. But I've programmed the radio to also be able to switch on/off Air mode, angle mode and horizon mode. But I mainly played with ACRO. No failsafe configured yet.

I plan to still have some fun with this Mobula 8, only after I'll start looking for a bigger quad, maybe with GPS. But for now, this is quite fun.

What next steps do you folks recommend me in my journey? Any tips or comments?

Thank you!

  4 inch frame with 16x16 motor mounting holes
Posted by: Pathfinder075 - 17-Mar-2024, 09:03 AM - Forum: Beginner Questions - Replies (9)

Anyone know of any frames in this size with 16x16 motor mounting capability or would 5 inch be the smallest?


So i picked up a set of five (new) 2207 1800kv motors for £30 (minor caveat the bells are not the most sturdy).  So really want to build a smallish quad to use them on, but am not against going up to a 5 inch if required, but would prefer to stay around the 4 inch size if possible.  I would like to say the build will be light, but with motors weighing 40g each, it is highly unlikely to be light.  It will be an experiment in heavy.

So at the minute the only 4 inch I can find is the Diatone Roma F4. But I am still searching/looking.
