They only really like being left unused at storage charge (3.8V per cell), so the minimum amount of time you leave them fully charged or discharged, the longer life they will have. I charge mine just before I go out flying and I storage charge them as soon as I return back home, even if I intend to also fly the next day (I just charge them back up again on the day). Some people do leave LiPos charged for a 24 hour period, but any more than that and you then risk doing damage to the cells. I guess you already know not to go below 3V per cell (3.5V per cell to allow for some safety margin). Maybe you already know all of this and I'm just teaching you to suck eggs. If you do then apologies but some people don't so it is worth mentioning / reiterating to avoid ruined LiPos. Happy flying Oh, I'm happy to suck eggs! (By the way--I used to teach English, and I have NEVER heard that one before. I'm going to start using it!) I appreciate the advice on not leaving them for more than 24 hours. I had read somewhere online (oh--the misinformation of the InterWebz) that up to 3 days was okay, but I'll stick to the 24 hour rule and try to charge before I fly. I was actually pleased to see that it didn't take too long to charge my 4s packs (even at 1c), so I don't see it being a problem. I also ordered a fireproof battery bag for storage... now I'm wondering if I should get a second one for charging...? As for the flight today, it went WAY better! I was a little worried at first, because although the "beep beep beeping" from the goggles didn't happen this time, within about 20 seconds of mellow flight and hovering around, I had the same goggle issue where the image disappeared. It actually was very similar to what you described in an earlier message from yesterday where everything kind of went static, green, and then red, and it looked like a film reel going bad. It was really discouraging. Then I switched to "Mode 2" and everything was awesome. Holy hell... I can see why people fall in love with this hobby!!! The only "trouble" that I had (and I'm about to go investigate) was that no matter what, it stayed in auto level mode. I watched a Bardwell video where he said that Acro mode was sort of "normal/default" so I set (on a 3-way switch) Angle/Horizon/ [Blank] and I assumed that the blank slot would default to Acro, but no matter what it always auto leveled. It was weird. After all those hours in the simulator flying in Acro, it was kind of annoying. But it was still nice to just fly around for an hour or so. Was really fun and made me understand why I've put all this time and money into it! Now I'm off to figure out how to get it into Acro mode. Maybe I can get out for another flight this evening • Posts: 21,294 Threads: 589 Likes Received: 8,982 in 6,647 posts Likes Given: 1,426 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 789 08-Aug-2020, 10:39 PM (This post was last modified: 08-Aug-2020, 10:47 PM by SnowLeopardFPV. Edit Reason: Corrected some information. ) I store all my LiPos in an ammo box (with part of the seal cut out to allow gasses to escape in the event of an issue), but I'm less paranoid now when it comes to charging and discharging compared to what I used to be like. When I first started out in the hobby I put my LiPos on a brick while they were being charged and discharged. Now they just sit directly on the wooden desk connected to my charger. How things have changed I am however always close by during that process and keep a regular check on the LiPos of any getting hot or puffing up. If you feel safer charging inside a LiPo safe bag then you have to do what you feel comfortable with. If you get stuck figuring out why you can't take your quad out of stability mode then post the results of a "dump" and "diff all" back here and we can take a look at your settings. • Posts: 70 Threads: 11 Likes Received: 1 in 1 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jul 2020 Reputation: 0 Hmm... Looking over my settings, I think I had Angle Mode set to a "non switch" mistakenly (AUX8 instead of AUX3). But that's not too much of an issue, as I don't think that I have any interest in flying Angle Mode. It's more just realizing that I set it up wrong. But I'm learning as we go. I am sort of stuck on why the two other switches (the ones that weren't set to Horizon Mode) weren't defaulting into Acro Mode though. During flight I did repeatedly switch back through the different options on that 3-way switch, but all of them auto-leveled. So I'm a bit stumped. I'd like to just unplug from Betaflight and bring it outside to test it again, but I have to drive a ways away to get to a safe place to fly. I'll go later this afternoon and hopefully figure out the issue in the meantime.

OK, so you've got the Angle and Horizon modes set up on different auxiliary switches (AUX2 and AUX9). Assuming that your AUX2 switch is a 3-position switch, configure both Angle and Horizon on that same switch by running the following CLI commands. Then with that switch set to the last position you will be in Acro mode. Code: aux 1 1 1 900 1225 0 0 aux 2 2 1 1300 1700 0 0 save

As I've been fooling around in BetaFlight, I think I may have figured it out. I'll add a screencap (set to Acro Mode), but basically I now have it where when the 3-way switch is set to position 1, it's in a non-set range (presumably Acro Mode; see photo), Position 2 is set to Horizon Mode, and Position 3 is set to Angle Mode. My hope is to only use Position 1, as I'm really only interested in flying in Acro at this time. • Posts: 21,294 Threads: 589 Likes Received: 8,982 in 6,647 posts Likes Given: 1,426 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 789 We cross posted. It sounds like you've now configured it the way I said in my previous post. That should do the trick Some pilots don't even have Angle and Horizon modes configured but it's useful in case of an emergency. Say your video feed goes out because you went behind something. The best way to try and get it back is it to increase altitude. The problem is that you are flying blind and have no idea what direction or attitude the quad is flying in, so if you give any stick inputs you could risk crashing it. In this scenario, if you flip the switch to Angle mode you know the attitude of the quad is now perfectly upright / stable, and all you have to worry about is giving some throttle to gain altitude in the hope of getting your video feed back. • Posts: 70 Threads: 11 Likes Received: 1 in 1 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jul 2020 Reputation: 0 (08-Aug-2020, 11:50 PM)SnowLeopardFPV Wrote: We cross posted.

Ah! I appreciate that little trick. Hopefully it doesn't come to that any time soon, but I can totally see how that could save you in a pinch. Unrelated, but I sent you a PM. • Posts: 70 Threads: 11 Likes Received: 1 in 1 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jul 2020 Reputation: 0 Oh me, oh my! Went out yesterday and actually found a wide open space that's way closer to where I live (only about a 10 minute drive), and got there about an hour before sunset. Flew six battery packs, and Good Googaley Moogaley! That was amazing! Was definitely shaking a lot at first, and had some sweaty hands, but nerves kind of settled down after ten or fifteen minutes. It was beautiful! Again--thank you for all the help! Headed out again to fly in a couple hours in the same area. I suppose that'll just about be the conclusion of this thread. But I suspect that I'll be back in a few weeks. I'm headed out of state for a couple weeks, but I have a full Tyro 119 build kit that will hopefully be delivered by the time I return, and I'm looking forward to seeing the build through from start to finish. • Posts: 12,099 Threads: 125 Likes Received: 3,739 in 2,836 posts Likes Given: 99 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 388 I think you are hooked.

The out of body experience was like nothing I'd ever felt before Don't expect the Tyro 129 to have anything like the quality of the Xilo. It's cheap for a reason, but it will get you some experience (and frustrations) with actually building a quad yourself. Have a great time expedition • |
