Air65 motors

Post image
16 Upvotes

Air65 Freestyle Edition motors are too fragile. This is the result of two months of indoor flying, with mostly very light crashes.

Update:

My flying style isn't slow, but it's not anything crazy either. It's mostly like racing, just a bit slower.

Sure the lighting is a challenge but god it is so nice when there is wide and far just not a single person around. Just you and your Quad.

Parks here are also pretty well lit so as long as you stay arround the paths it's very doable.

The thing in the left of the video is my leg btw. Haha.

Multicopter Deep Space launched a damp kit for the Seeker and Roc4

Deep space now launched an upgrade kit to address the O4 gyro problem. Similar to Geprc they are trying to smooth out the camera movements with absorbers, available for the Seeker 3 and Roc4. As DJI is letting everyone else solve their problems, again, let’s hope it will work.

Help! My Pocket died :(

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hey all, looking for help with a Pocket that won't turn on.

What happened: I left it powered on in sim mode and walked away without realizing. When I came back it was dead, and it hasn't booted since. It was working fine before that.

Symptoms:

- Screen stays completely dark when I hold the power button. No boot sequence, no sound.

- With the arm switch in the armed position, the green arm LED lights up only while I'm holding the power button, but nothing else happens.

- With USB-C plugged in, the red charge LED comes on, but the radio doesn't boot.

- It has never booted on USB power alone.

- My PC doesn't seem to see it. I checked Device Manager (with hidden devices shown), uninstalled an old stale "STM32 BOOTLOADER" ghost entry, replugged the radio, and nothing new appeared.

What I've tried:

  1. New batteries. I measured about 4V at the battery terminals inside the radio, so the batteries and terminals are fine.
  2. Charging over USB-C. The red LED comes on, but it still won't boot.
  3. Bootloader combo (both horizontal trims toward center while pressing power), with and without USB connected. No change.
  4. Removed the SD card. No change.
  5. A different USB-C cable + different port, not using a dock. No change.
  6. Opened the case and disconnected the RTC battery for about 10 minutes to reset the board. No change.

The radio hasn't been dropped or exposed to water, and I haven't modified or flashed anything.

Since it won't boot on batteries or USB and doesn't enumerate over USB at all, I'm leaning toward a hardware fault: the power button or latch circuit, the main board, or the display. I'm planning to contact RadioMaster support under warranty, but wanted to ask here first:

- Has anyone seen this exact behavior (arm LED on while holding power, dark screen, nothing on USB)?

- Is there a way to force DFU mode on the Pocket that I could try?

- Is there anything else worth checking?

Thanks in advance!

Massive ships, narrow waterways, and a different perspective from the sky!

A short cinematic FPV film featuring cruise and cargo ships navigating the locks along the St. Lawrence , captured with two very different drones - the DJI Avata 2 and iFlight Nazgul Evoque F6D V2.

Two drones, two different flying experiences, one cinematic adventure.

Trouble turning to the right...

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

Does anybody else have this problem? Funny thing, I'm right-handed... so weird.

Either my brain is missing something or it's broken. I have about 20 hrs in the sim and for some reason, turning or orbiting to the right gives my brain some sort of error and cannot move the sticks as I know they should move. Right now I'm spending most of my time practising mostly right turns and orbits.

As you can see from the video, orbits are the hardest...

<- left good

HDZERO black friday sale?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm relatively new to FPV (4-5 months) and I've been mainly flying DJI O4 Pro and Vista. I am currently looking to move to analog because of "gear fear". Vista is kinda cheap but you can only look at obtaining them second-hand, O4 Pros on the other hand is kinda expensive to go full send and practice with. (Might not be expensive to you but im from a 3rd world country)

Does the HDZERO global shop do black friday sale? If so how much less were their goggles 2 last year?

I know it kinda defeats the purpose of going to analog for cheap and easy to buy parts but I was thinking goggles dont break because it is with you, not the drone and if i can get for cheaper during a sale, then why not lol

It's really not that far ahead of the skyzone O4x pro in terms of price so i thought why not get that and i might try racing soon.

EDIT: One more reason that im moving to analog is the latency.

Does anyone have experience with HGLRC VR001 analog goggles?

2 Upvotes

A colleague wants to get into FPV since another colleague in our lab and me started flying this summer.

He already got a RM T8L and is flying in the SIM.

Hey been saying he will buy everything when the VR04s are available again...which seems like never lol.

Now a few colleagues and mutual friends are invited to his birthday party, so we thought of gifting him some budget goggles.

Unfortunately, the only analog goggles I can find available for a reasonable price are the HGLRC VR001s, and I can find ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about them in terms of reviews.

So I'm hoping if someone here has experience with them and if they're somewhat decent for the ~100$ price point. I've had VR04s before and they're pretty alright, for reference.

Question? Stuck on RXLOSS with GEPRC Vapor-D5 (O4 Air Unit + DJI RC 3) – sticks not moving in Betaflight

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, really need some help with this, losing my mind here.

My quad is a GEPRC Vapor-D5 HD (GEP-F722-HD v2 FC) with DJI O4 Air Unit. When I first got it, it flew fine with the DJI remote. Then my remote broke, so I tried wiring up an ELRS receiver. Couldn't get ELRS to work, gave up, and just bought a brand new DJI RC 3 to go back to the original setup.

Now I can't get Betaflight to see the controller at all.

Here is the situation:

  • Goggles and RC 3 are bound to the O4. In the Goggles stick calibration menu, the sticks move perfectly. Protocol is set to Normal SBUS.
  • Video feed and OSD work fine. GPS works fine too.
  • In Betaflight Receiver tab, the bars don't move at all.
  • When I plug in a LiPo, the drone just beeps nonstop and OSD says "RSSI LOW". Blue LED is blinking.
  • In CLI, typing status shows RX rate: 101, but arming flags say RXLOSS CLI MSP. So the FC is getting packets, but Betaflight isn't decoding them.

I already tried loading the factory CLI dump from GEPRC's site multiple times, tried setting Serial RX to UART2, messed with inverted/half duplex settings, but nothing changes.

Has anyone run into this where the O4 sends packets (RX rate 101) but Betaflight stays stuck on RXLOSS? Any ideas what I'm missing?
