FPV Porch Pilots Club | RUNCAM Thumb 2 | FULL AUTO | Cinewhoop

Manual settings don't work very well for the type or areas I fly. The dark areas suffer. In Full AUTO (ISO and SHUTTER), and SUNNY White Balance, it's acceptable as in this flight. Saturation and Contrast are set at 3. Exposure at 0. I think the THUMB 2 I got has problems. Sometimes is doesn't power up by either port. Sometimes it powers up but wont record when I hit the record button. Sometime...

In this test run I tried the MEDIUM video quality setting at 4K/60fps as it captures at 80 mbps allowing about a 6 minute run time before a 2nd MP4 file is spawned at the 4GB point. If you use gyroflow, the associated gyro data file is only generated for the first MP4 file in a series currently. As you can tell, the dark areas are crushed and look muddy with the settings I used for this flight....

Just testing out this new camera filmed in 4K 60fps, manual shutter, and sunny conditions. Exported at 30fps. Gyroflow stabilized. Obviously manual mode wrecks darker areas so I usually stick to auto shutter with a fixed ISO. Note, if you set the Thumb 2 to HIGH video quality the data rate will be over 100 mbps, and at about 4 minutes in you will hit the 4GB file cap. This causes a 2nd file to ...

      Growing up in Wyoming, we almost always had snow on the ground by Halloween. Retiring in Arizona has been wonderful. Even at 5200 feet in elevation, winters are mild. We usually get a few inches of snow per storm and three or four storms per winter. Pretty mild. The coldest temperature I've recorded on my little home weather station in the last five years is 1°F. It's rare that it's that cold here. Right now, we're still having highs in the 80°s and lows in the mid-50°s. Four distinct seasons. I have a brother near Minneapolis. I don't envy your winters. Happy flying, friend. 🫡 🍻

    2 1/2 thousand views and only 28 likes this is when I say people on UA-cam suck and don’t get the bigger picture you should have more likes! Awesome video. I worked at a vinyl shop many years back and love the concept of using vinyl as a mask. Many people don’t realize the benefits of using a plotter to mask for paint or sandblasting. I think another person on here asked about other ways to etch without sandblasting and I think that there’s a liquid that’s like an acid but has a weaker acidity and you paint it on and it just needs a little more time before removing. I don’t know if there’s an actual product like that. I just thought that I had seen something like this Somewhere along the line. Thanks for the short, concise video great information.

  • @mixerfistit5522
    @mixerfistit5522 2 місяці тому

    The majority of the noise comes from the guard built into the housing. It's flat plastic so causes a lot of turbulence. I cut the 4 points around the guard to leave a clear hole for the fan and the noise is considerably lower (maybe filing the edges of the guards into curves could help too). You should really replace the guard with a proper metal one but I just left mine - it blows not sucks so nothing would likely catch in there unless I was very careless. That said, the 0/max setup of this fan is dumb and let's down a good unit. The lower speed on your one is more than enough for most uses. A fan that ramps up with the temperature using a thermistor would be ideal and is something I've considered but haven't bothered. Side note, check your cable for a good earth wire. My bundled cable was really cheap and nasty so I replaced it (I have the white T150, not sure if that's newer or older than the black one, I've had it years though)

    Thanks for sharing these tests, Tommy. I'm always interested in the gear and methods other pilots employ when capturing video. In my experience with the 03 Air Unit, I'm happy with 1080p, 60FPS, GyroFlow instead of RockSteady EIS, and Color grading in DaVinci Resolve. I haven't experimented with ND filters. I have decided 1080p is good enough for most situations, and I don't have to deal with the hassles associated with 4K. I do still enjoy experimenting with 4K, but for day to day flying, it's a PITA. IMHO. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Happy flying amigo. 🫡 🍻

The design also allows the angle to be easily adjusted, plus the camera is less likely to be smashed to hell in a hard crash. As for image quality, I'm going to have to run a bunch of tests with various camera settings to more closely match what I get with GO2 class cameras.

Product doesn't specify sq ft it will cover. Well, anywhere from 700-2000 using a backpack sprayer depending on how heavy you lay it on.

    One important recommendation for quality is to only do half of the layer that you need when it's over a couple of inches. Put down one layer tamp and let it cure for a day. Then do the final layer. It will be more solid. The tamper can't compress like a roller can.

    How do you prevent the loss of the control link when you go behind the buildings?

    • @TommyTester
      @TommyTester 3 місяці тому

      The control signal does get reduced with any obstruction, be it structures or trees, as well as distance. There are also a variety of control systems you can pick from, with the more expensive ones offering longer range and better "penetration." That said, there is a point where control will be lost, so the level of signal strength is sent back to the pilot into their goggles and transmitter in real time so he knows how strong the control signal is being received by the quad, and usually a warning sound from the transmitter will alert him before control is lost. Good question.
