@@Black-ice_fpv it’s setup to the LEDLOW mode in the Modes Tab on mine. Bit of its still not working you have to make sure the the LED Board is set to the BetaFlight mode by clicking the buttons. See the 5:00 mark in the video. Additionally if you have a variable switch you can set it to change colors which is neat. Hope that helps.

@@Ja-Ko thanks, pushing cinewhoops through tight spots in a smooth line is great fun! Many people try to fly cinewhoops like 5” quads which kinda defeats the purpose of them… Get out there and find some tight lines! Cheers bud, thanks for watching!

@@andy_louie83 thanks for checking out the video. The iFlight crystal just fits so well, and works good enough. Then for add a couple High Gainers on top and boom, incredible performance! These helicals are like $5 or less to make.

@@BrandonPop13 there’s two main types of FPV systems. Analog & Digital. • Analog is the original FPV, and had some advantages, but the image gets static. • Digital is new tech, performs great, and image looks excellent, but has some disadvantages. Hope that answers your question

@@LivLazer thanks, appreciate the comment, super fun flying inside of trees!

@@Lost_FPV yea Pavo20 Pro is a great quad! Try to fly tight gaps & smooth lines, it’s always a fun challenge and great footage! The Night Fire version just had special LEDs, which are great, but not a huge feature. When filming a shot you don’t really want LEDs messing with the lighting. I only find time to fly like twice a month… so I feel ya!

@@w1llyFPV yea, FPV paradise here in Norway. I used a GoPro 11 which has a “Light Painting” mode and makes it easy. I might do a follow up video about different light painting methods, because you can get some neat results and it is dark here in winter!

@GiantAntCowboy light painting with photo is very clear and easy but regarding gopro I own 10 so... 😅 Nevertheless video or animation with light painting is really amazing

@ so the GoPro is taking 1/2 second exposures, and then stacking them. Maybe there’s a way to do it with a camera and video editing software. I’ll have to think about it more. 🤔

@@colibrifpv Yea the DJI O3 can look pretty good in the right conditions if setup properly. Maybe you missed it, but I did said “DJI is miserable in the dark”, like it’s almost impossible to fly! However my best Light Painting attempt was after I set up an extra light outside, which also made it possible to see with the DJi O3. Haha! Appreciate you watching, cheers bud!

Hey appreciate the feedback, was just having fun with this review. Mounting the O3 Camera higher is definitely the key! Cheers!

@@hugocrs absolutely, glad this video continues to be helpful. Appreciate the comment, cheers!

Get some lock lubricant, WD-40 or even just dip your key in gasoline after filling. Then stick your key in the lock and pull it in & out, twist, and just move the lock and pins around. This should help free everything up.

@@Everyday-Adventures notice my first reply didn’t tag you… in case you didn’t see this.

Good info, glad you got it sorted. Thanks for sharing!

@@American.Abandoned Hey glad you caught this video. Yea, using 100% lens correction creates this awesome speed look, it’s very cool in a straight line, but when the quad turns all the distortion isn’t a great look. Over the years I’ve been pushing this slider down, and now I just try to flatten the image without distorting it. As you said 25-30° works really well, and then when you turn it still looks natural. Glad this video was useful!

@@roki5941 this particular pack is rated to 25A which would be 10C but can handle bursts up to 35A or basically 14C. I have two other videos testing DIY Li-Ion packs that are worth watching. Comparing 4s, 5s, 6s, in 1P & 2P configurations - ua-cam.com/video/rynkx_OYTFI/v-deo.html 18650 vs 21700 6s2p packs for 30min flights! - ua-cam.com/video/EcUCdOszF9U/v-deo.html Hope that’s helpful, li-ion packs are great for longer range FPV setups!

@@GiantAntCowboy Thanks !! Fantastic videos,, "job well done" 👍

@@GiantAntCowboy I have plenty (100 used but good) Samsung 18650, 3200mAh that I like to do something with..

@@roki5941 you have to check their “Max Current Rating”. Many of these cells are only rated to 6A which most quads easily pull just hovering. So these batteries would overheat/melt pretty quickly. You can use them to power your equipment though, or even build a large parallel (2p, 3, 4p!) pack to power a field charger. I started doing this with old li-ion packs I don’t use much anymore. Thanks for checking out the videos, happy to hear they were entertaining!

@@4dscreenart from the VTX menu. Google “HDZero Stick Commands” for proper set up and use information.

@@Jenou_YT the stutter problem has been made better but still exists. Basically it’s caused by moving fast at 30fps with a high shutter speed. If you could lower the shutter speed enough the stutter would go away but then it’d be really blurry! With that said, I fly 1080p30 all the time. If flying in wide open spaces it’s easy to get used to, but It’s not usable for a tiny whoop flying fast in tight environments. Hope that helps.

@@cajah1000 yea with high gain antennas HDzero performs great. Here’s a 7km run with HDzero & DIY Antennas that had perfect signal/image the whole time. ua-cam.com/video/CYphV5FPbYc/v-deo.html Was a Super fun video, check it out!

@@mariusztv4339 I used "Copperlab 2-5/8 Inch Round Circle Disc Copper" f0r $15 and it's enough to make 12 antennas. But on a newer build I made them the same diameter as the 3D printed base, don’t remember what it was at the moment. I used tin snips to cut the copper. See the video description for more details.

@@plomek5039 yea curious about that, we’ll see if I can get one. Thanks for watching!

@@everythingballistic8812 yea like a dish. Always thought about this, would be a neat experiment. Thanks for watching!

Usually some SanDisk but usually whatever I have available to stick in. Just make sure to format it in the goggles.

@@chrisalexthomas yea, I use the path because it’s repeatable & I have an “Exit Strategy”. Flying into the woods will results in more search & rescue missions & broken parts.

@@GiantAntCowboy my guy, you need more positive attitude, believe in yourself, a little less of this negative Nancy you got going on 🤣🤣🤣

@@chrisalexthomas haha, I’ve run up there to retrieve a quad more times than I care to already. Haha! I’m not that into exercisin’…

@@GiantAntCowboy don’t blame you, tomorrow I’m going hunting for my other drone I crashed with a DJI mini. I hope nobody found it yet 🤩😅👍

@@chrisalexthomas oh man. Played that game a few times. Lost two quads this last year… hiked & searched, but never found.

@@Polkem1 yup, the 6s2p 18650 packs are rated to 70A and the 21700 packs are rated to 90A. So there’s plenty of power available. Highly recommend building a couple! Thanks for watching, cheers!

@@GiantAntCowboy Great, more of a cruising a exploration guy, this will be my first drone, was stressing about the flight time of lipos until I saw this, will definitely be building 4s2p and a 6s2p.

@@Polkem1 yea, I’ve been using Li-Ion packs on this quad for years. In fact here’s my original video when I first got this Chimera 7 ua-cam.com/video/rynkx_OYTFI/v-deo.html

@@mase85 excellent, glad you got it fixed!

@@voltvolt-t6g so glad to hear people enjoyed the BTS stuff. I’ve been planning to do more editing & film making content; especially if people find it interesting and helpful. So thanks for watching and commenting, cheers!

@@AcruxFPV yes! Mission Accomplished. Glad to hear the editing info was interesting & helpful. I’ll be doing my of that content coming up, so stay tuned. Cheers!

@@admitmohan Honestly I’ve been testing antennas for years and found most decent omni antennas work well on the VTX; ultimately taller is better. On other builds I’ve really liked the iFlight Alabtross antennas because they are tall, tough, and also inexpensive! For this build I’m currently using HGLRC Hammer antennas because they are tall but also they have direct UFL connectors. If you use a UFL to SMA pigtail you could run basically any antennas. But long story short the stock antenna is linear and too short for long-range uses. Using two long antennas Omni antennas gives better results.

@@serval_fpv hahah! Yea man, love the comment. Trying to keep it interesting! Thanks!

@@JonE5FPV Hey bud, thanks appreciate the comment. I got a few more projects in the pipeline. You saw my hip-hop video right?

@@MasonSauseda great, hope it’s not too scary. 🫨 haha

@@Fly_Hover_Me nice, it’s all about be creative, keep it up, cheers!

@@Lost_FPV yea I’m glad to hear this! For years the channel has been focused on testing & setting up FPV quads, but my main passion has always been capturing video and editing. Currently FPV equipment is so good that we don’t really need anymore range tests or tuning tutorials, so I’m going to start producing more content about Using FPV shots to create interesting videos. So stay tuned, I appreciate the support, cheers!

@@equipeecureuil6690 Really appreciate the feedback, especially the critical feedback. I was struggling to get the audio right and think I may have accidentally pasted some fades onto every clip which is what you’re hearing. I’d like to upgrade both my camera and microphone setups in the near future, especially my microphone… Thanks again for the feedback and stay tuned, cheers!

@@Xplicit_fpv really appreciate you watching and commenting. I’m hoping to inspire folks to do something different with their footage, but for me I really just a fun hobby. Cheers!

@GiantAntCowboy I hear you I'm all about having fun and going against the grain! Keep it up!

@@iamatuna Really glad to hear that! I was hoping someone might find the process useful or interesting. I’ve been editing this video on & off for the last month or so, and probably have 20-30hrs into it… However lots of this time was just messing around with details and revisions for fun. If you had a clear plan & vision it would be much quicker. Thank you for watching & commenting! Definitely stay tuned, I have a few more project in the works. Cheers!

​@GiantAntCowboy I will keep an eye out. I still need to get a better grip on video editing to have a clear vision of what I want to do when cutting, but seening this was quite beneficial. Your channel definitely delivers fresh concepts, keep it up :)

@@iamnarval yea, with editing figure out what you want to do, then figure out how to do it. Lots of good resources on the internet, I use FCPX but if I was to switch I’d use DaVinci Resolve. Appreciate the support!

I would guess it's acro as it's just easier to fly once you get the hang of it, I myself haven't flown anything else after the first week of learning to fly 7 years ago. If you're still flying any of the self level modes, do yourself a favor and get off them as soon as possible, it may not seem like it when starting out but acro is actually easier to fly with more control.

@@JakeBullit123 I fly both Acro & Angle modes depending on what I’m doing. But honestly with this tiny quad i actually love Angle Mode; and I’ve been flying quads in Acro for over 5 years. This is especially true when flying in thick forest because there’s so many branches and this tiny quad easily gets knocked around or stuck in them. In Acro it’s very easy to over-correct when hitting a surprise branch which then crashes you into another branch… in Angle mode regaining control is much easier, and keeps you flying. I’ve heard there’s a “Crash Recovery” mode that helps in Acro, but I’ve never tried it. In more open spaces I definitely prefer Acro mode though, just gives smoother control. Hope that’s helpful. P.s. Flying fast through tight forest with this tiny quad is literally the funnest thing I’ve done in FPV. I’m going to share a short video of my forest flights and fails, I’m just laughing the whole time!! Thanks for watching, cheers!

@@ugpfpv361 thanks, I mainly fly acro. Just in tight spots horizon mode can help you bounce off objects and keep going.

@@ugpfpv361 Yea, for the most part I agree with you, and prefer Acro 95% of the time. But I just explained above why i actually like Angle in the forest, especially with this tiny quad which so easily gets knocked around and stuck in branches. Acro for the most part is the way though, it’s just so much smoother and controlled.

@@GiantAntCowboy Thanks for the comprehensive reply.Echos my thoughts/flying style.

@@vkuran yea, ultimately given the dramatic lighting the image looked pretty good. I filmed in CineLike and did some color grading obviously, but not bad for a quad with an AUW of 150g! Thanks for watching, appreciate the comment!

@@LivLazer thanks, appreciate the comment!!

@@befreebailbonds3329 yes! That’s what I was hoping! Could you image just flying around and seeing this! Haha, appreciate the comment, cheers!

I had this happen to me!!! But I was recording with a go pro so I never saw it.

Haha!🤣

@@gunnhildpaulinelystad4895 thanks, figured you’d like it 😉👍

@@InfinityDrones thanks, was a fun project! Fun to do something different with drone footage.

@@colibrifpv thanks, the shot itself was cool, but I wanted to make it a bit more interesting. Appreciate the comment bud!

@@KainniaK yea thanks, glad you enjoyed the video/tests. With DJI I haven’t yet tested 360° performance with this Helical antennas/iFlight Crystal setup. However, with my HDzero setup I used four helical antennas and could fly 500m behind myself before having signal issues. DJI has better signal performance than HDzero so I would imagine DJI would also have no problem do a 500m circle with this antenna setup. Let me know what you end up doing and stay tuned, cheers!

@@GiantAntCowboy But Helical antennas all the rf is focussed towards an angle in front of you so how can there be signal behind you?

@@KainniaK Helical antennas are focused in front for sure, and you’ll be able to fly 20x further in front, but the antenna still picks up signals from the sides & back at close range, up to 500m in good conditions. Google: “helical antenna radiation pattern” for images illustrating what I mean. The performance on the sides is often worse than the back actually… I’ve been using helicals for years and really like them. Really cheap & easy to make!

@@ironlionfpv thanks man, appreciate the comment. I thought it came out pretty cool!

@@X862go sorry, I didn’t really call it officially call it Part II I guess. • Here’s a link Part II- ua-cam.com/video/HhiX9TU7Fc4/v-deo.html • There’s also a Part III where it goes horribly wrong… - ua-cam.com/video/uHR3fSS-ZcY/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!

@@X862go hey, i currently fly DJI O3 & HDzero, they’re the best options for me. DJI O3 has by far the best signal performance I’ve ever seen. I’ve tested analog, HDZero, WalkSnail & DJI. Here’s a recent video I made testing 5 different antenna setups on my DJI O3 system. I also included penetration comparisons from the other systems for reference. Maybe this will be helpful. Which goggles and antennas are you using?

@@InfinityDrones thanks man! Some highlights from over the years. Have been looking for an excuse to use them.

@@ginPP simple but solid comment. Thanks!

Excellent to hear. Glad this video has been so helpful for folks!
