Hello FPV community, I've been playing around with my first build having fun crashing on every flight haha, I've been getting better and better as i go.
I've been flying in angle mode, and i think i should start practicing how to fly the way those people on youtube fly, or atleast in the same mode, and settings so eventually i can fly that well some day.
How do i do acrobatic flying? like flips? etc? what are the techniques? I've read that i have to be in Rate mode, or "no mode" essentially in cleanflight right? I'm not really sure.., and if i do, do i have to set sensitivities differently in cleanflight? And how do i do that? The reason i ask is because i tried flipping in horizon but i literally fast planted... it was spectacular...
I don't even know what to do with the sticks to flip it.
What is a good place to start learning this? If any of you guys have some tips on this field please let me know, i would greatly appreciate it
I recently burned 2 of my motors because they got caught in grass as i tried spinning them to take off. They didn't spin and burned out. i know now not to do that so i learned the hard way. If you have guys have other advise or mistakes you've made let me know so i don't do other stupid things haha.
Also, with my FPV, i've measured it to be around 150 meters on a good day in a clear field. I have a 600mw transmitter with clover leaf aomway antennas.
I see people on youtube flying through forests and doing crazy things but i can never do that with just 150 meters. I'm not sure if maybe i set it up wrong, its defective, or if their is other ways to do FPV better.
Before i had issues and i realized the antennas didn't fit right because of their sockets but i bought new ones and have corrected that. Before i used to get like 50 meters, so i at least improved. Please let me know if maybe i should get a new transmitter that's better or whatever i need to know about FPV that might be important in your opinion. I'm new to this whole hobby and i love it so far and i don't wanna be too limited by my range.
I hope to be able to fly fast and crazy like the people on Youtube one day, it'll be a long road ahead, but i am so far enjoying it like crazy, i nearly fly every day.
I want to thank all of you for your help on my previous questions, and helping me get into this amazing hobby. I've made a pretty sick build, i'm proud of it specially since i didn't know anything about this 3 months ago. I will list it below with specifications, and pictures! Please let me know what you think! If you have any tips or things i can change to it to make my experience great, go ahead and let me know! I greatly appreciate it!
