Alright everyone has helped me out along way here and my drone turns on and flys but i ended up crashing really bad multiple times. The throttle is just too dam sensitive! How do you adjust that? Like if i just hardly go up the drone just flys 30’ up in the sky and i cant control it. Isnt there away to tone it down abit so i can learn how to fly like a pair of training wheels ??

Im working with 6s 1500mah lipo thats 110c

I think my mistake was getting a 110c?

The C rating of a LiPo has no relevance to the how powerful the quad will be. That is just the maximum current draw then can be sustained by a LiPo if the motors demand it. Current is drawn by the motors as the RPM and load increases. It is voltage and motor KV that will determine how powerful a quad is. All-up-weight (AUW) of the quad will also play a factor in how powerful it "feels".

The way to tame a quad via hardware is by either using a lower voltage LiPo (i.e. 4S) and/or lower KV motors.

You can alternatively limit the throttle in software by running the following commands in the Betaflight Configurator CLI...


You can change the percentage to any value you desire. A value of 100 is the default.

I will try that out tonight

I know this isn't what you asked, but I would also recommend getting a sim like Velocidrone and using your transmitter plugged into your PC to practice.

I blew off that suggestion when I started and jumped right into the deep end like you with a 6s quad and taught myself. After flying for a while I finally got Velocidrone and I have noticed my confidence and piloting skills shoot up after putting in 20min a day on Velocidrone. There are other sims, some with better graphics but I picked Velocidrone because I was told it is the most realistic as far as flight physics. Using the same transmitter as I fly with, and setting the game quad to have the same degrees-per-second rates as my real life quad has in BetaFlight I use the sim just to practice basic things like throttle control, as well as build up more muscle memory. It also allows me to practice a move that I would be too scared to risk my quad doing in real life.

Now I can fly just by 'feel' or muscle memory without ever even thinking about what my fingers/sticks are doing. I can do flight moves that I couldn't even explain how to do, because it is just experience / muscle memory I build up in the simulator. When I started on it I could barely make it around even a level 1 training track. Now i'm ripping through the level 4/5 track shaving time off each day.

I flew in real life (badly) for probably 6-9 months before I got the sim, and I wish I would have done it sooner. It really is a great way to practice. And you can practice flying anytime, even if you only have 10 mins free. Can't do that with a quad in real life.

Forgot to mention the Sim I use is only $20, and I guarantee you it has saved me more than that in repairs I didn't have to make because my experience gained in the sim allow me to recover where I otherwise would have crashed.
