The Do's and Dont's of Getting a BNF | Mobula 6 2024 Edition

  • Ever since the Mobula 6 2024 Edition was announced earlier this year, I was excited about what HappyModel was cooking up. I had high expectations for this 2024 edition as it seemed to raise the bar higher compared to their previous versions which all fly pretty great. However, it seems like there are still a few things that need to be ironed out.
    I went through some initial issues that could have been problems on the software side of things but I'll admit, I should've approached and tried to solve this better. This ultimately led too more issues.
    For that reason, I decided to change this video from a review to "things you should and should not do with a BNF". Hopefully, you guys learn from my mistakes and save yourself from stress if you ever come across a faulty BNF.
    Thank you again to everyone who supports this channel! It really is amazing to see this channel grow and it makes me super excited to show you guys more things and bring you along in my FPV journey! I look forward to showing more projects soon (and hopefully, getting my designs available for you guys to purchase as well - still working on that!).

    I really appreciate this video. I think it solved my problem with the Mob6 2024. I had not done any soldering or firmware changes outside of changing the orientation of the battery connector.The quad was having failsafe/brownouts right after takeoff and resetting the vtx to 0 power multiple times. I decided to make one change at a time, and the first thing I did was go to status and identify which gyro I had. I had the one with the 3.2kHz update frequency and I changed the PID loop frequency from 0.8 kHz to 3.2 to match. This seems to have solved the issue. After two batteries of no issues, I also added the Karate tune preset, which made it fly even better. I've flown 5 more batteries since with no issues and will fly more later today. This is my first high kv whoop, and I am loving it now. Your video saved me a ton of frustration. Thanks again.

      I'm glad my video was able to help you my guy! sucks that were experiencing these issues with these AIOs but it's good to see that there is still a chance to get it fixed. Hope happymodel also acknowledges this and make appropriate changes.
      Also, I think that mindset of only changing a few things at a time is great and most of us (including myself 😅) should adopt that habit too.

      I think it was because of something regarding filtering and Pids since it was "solved" when I set PID loop freq to 3.2 khz and having my filtering and pids set as shown in the video. I think it's "solved" cause playing around with the master slider (increasing it beyond 1.1) increased the chances of the whoop randomly rebooting. feel free to try my backup file but yeah - be careful.
      in some of the links I've included in the description, someone suggested a faulty regulator but I noticed I would get random reboots even in the start of the flight so I'm not sure if that's what I had.

You can also try messing around with packet rates in the lua script.

      actually changed it 3 times (to the maple micro CP antenna, to ORT Micro Vee, to this simple DIY dipole) to see if it changed the noise in the feed but no change. And since I just fly in my room, I don't need the range but the lower weight helps!

    I also have video noise the same as yours after I arm my Mobula6 2024. I didn't see this problem when I watched the reviews on UA-cam. Are we getting a lower quality product when we buy this drone?
    My drone can reboot after a hard landing. And it reboots twice in the air during a calm flight.

    • @sticky_ricebowl
      @sticky_ricebowl  2 місяці тому

      Exactly! and atleast from my own testing, changing some betaflight settings also affected it. Though I don't know which ones.
      I hate to say it but it's possible. Especially since they're probably rushing with so many pre orders.
      Carefully try my settings. Idk if it'll help and I can't guarantee if it'll work but I've crashed mine tons and have reached voltages around 2.9v without those reboots occurring so far.
      so from my own understanding, it's not a regulator issue, but it could be either a software issue or qc issue. idk yet which one.

      If it was just video noise, I'd say it could be the antenna. You may want to re-seat the antenna, or try another. Also worth trying setting video to Raceband 8, if you're not already on it.
      But rebooting after a crash sounds more like a board or power connector issue. Check if the battery connector's solder joints look normal, if it does, then I'd probably try to contact seller for a replacement/ refund

      Im unsure too sadly. This is just what worked for me and changing betaflight settings completely to a custom one was my only solution as of right now. It does seem weird since the things I did was what I've been doing for other BNFs I've had in the past but I think it's just that this hardware is so new that it's likely a mixture of qc issue and software issues - based on a number of responses here. It's flying well right now so atleast there is that. No worries!
