what are the settings on the mustache?
Thank you Steele. Once again it's really nice that you are taking the time to show this. Anyone can google the best settings, but we look up to you and your ways of doing things. I appreciate it.
I finally got around to putting these settings on my hs1177 and WOW the difference was night and day. Thanks man!!!
You could probably do a complete build and settings video every few months as fast as tech is changing, some basics are there for awhile but so many variables that unless you do a complete or focus on one aspect like this video it will be outdated by Christmas....
This is very much a DIY hobby and I for one can use all of the help I can get.
THANK YOU!!!
I love the Vlog and your willingness to take us along.
The HS1177 we have in stock no longer have the BNC plug, they have an RCA so you should be able to hook the camera straight to your goggles. MUCH EASIER then before for sure! But before I just bought a BNC to RCA adapter and still hooked it to my goggles or a screen. Thanks for sharing your settings Steele! You da man!
you didn't go through your "Reset" settings. Come on, man. Don't leave us hanging. In all seriousness, thank you. You're my inspiration and I want to be as big as you one day. Also, I had this profile pic first bro.
Lol. Did you now ;)
Your fatshark battery will plug rite into the connection that no one ever has. I didn't have to mod any cables, worked fine as long as you have the correct AV cable
It's a bit moe difficult to setup than the swift but it's worth it.
2.5mm lens is the shit
Thanks for your time Steele, good stuff, keep up
Simple and straight forward. Nice.
Can you please do a video on your radio settings? Like how you do the idle up, etc.
I agree
agree
agree
+1 on this
I asked Chad the other night if he (or RR) could elaborate on the Taranis/KISS FC settings... especially min _ throttle / min _ command and the idle-up/airmode settings.
Hey Steele,
Can you explain in another video how did you install the mic to hear the sound of the quad ?
Kind regards.
No need, lot of the video TXs on the market has a built-in microphone...
Dude loved your guide on FPV cam, read my mind. The only gap would be some more great suggestions about anything different you do for making a decent recording cam setup. (even though we know it's gopro cam and Chad knows the settings for exactly what to upload formatting wise to youtube for the cleanest videos) I'd also love to hear about any gimbal usage in your experience and do's and don't to think about that made your gimbal-less videos so clean and perfect even as a freestylist since that's not exactly something someone could gimbal for so to speak. I may end up picking up this FPV cam you mentined and give the 2.5 a try just from the great responses on why you picked this setup.
Thanks mr steel always good to hear setup tips from you .......
Short, sweet and to the point... Thanks as always!!
Thanks, Steele. Very informative for those that didn't know.
Thanks a lot. I been meaning to tweak this camera. I have had some long shadows where I fly and I hope to make changeover quicker.
So many unanswered questions in these comments, way to go steele
Thanks. I was wondering the easiest way to connect that toggle thingy. Perfect video.
Another awesome, informative video! I'd really like to see a video about tips for the different settings, what they mean and do, etc. Maybe a Rotor Riot episode? Thanks for the info!
Extremely helpful, thank you steele! This is becoming my favorite youtube channel by far.
I use my fatshark dom v3 battery to power my camera when changing OSD. Just waiting for my VTX and frame to come in and my next build will be underway, using a Runcam Owl Plus which has a 2.5mm lens so I'm excited to see the difference from 2.8mm.
excellent just excellent what more can be said
Brilliant Mr Steele, thanks for sharing those settings!
Can you make a budget quad build video?
Let's say 150 US-dollar for the frame, FC, ESCs, Motors, FPV, Camera.
For example ZMR250, NAZE32, DYS20A, minimosd, 600mw fake 32ch fatshark VTX, nonames2204 motors and a china clone copy sony TVL600, .
You might argue that the parts i suggested are s### f### a## and every part sucks like d###, but that's what a lot of people start off.
I bet a lot of people would love to see how you turn this budget into something halfway enjoyable.
Just an idea... ;)
rc-wingman would love to see that
UAV FEATURES....
Thanks! I learn a lot from your videos.
Cool rig, great idea, thanks! Also, I've found the Lighttrax courses look best when you turn the b&w off, so you get the nice, pretty color hoops, imho.
Thanks for sharing mr Steele
Keep up the tips. (Insert just the tip joke) newbs need to learn (as in me) and this gets me to go searching for answers on what are good camera settings for me.
Hey man, this question is in regards to a statement you made in the Rotor Riot Taranis Review video, but I figured I had a better chance of you actually seeing it if I posted it here. You said something along the lines of "if you don't bend the pins in the module bay you're going to introduce 22ms of lag". I did some research and found that some people were having to bend their pins in order to get certain modules to line up, but didn't find any information about bending the pins to reduce potential lag. Can you clarify exactly what you meant?
Love watching all your videos, and I see that you do this nose-in orbit around things better than anyone I have watched, and wanted to ask if you could do a short tutorial on how to pull that off so smoothly? Keep up the great videos!
Can you make a new one with youre newcam the Runcam MRsteele swift 2 please??
i like runcam swift more... easy to use osd... realy the best cam i ever had on my gear
Same here
Hi, you can actually connect the osd cable rather simple. What you need is the AV-In/Out cable (jack to cinch cable) delivered with your fatshark googles and a secondary googles battery (which should normally be available in the field). You can connect the battery to the dc jack of the osd cable and the AV-In/Out with the yellow cinch to your googles AV in port. Thats it, the camera is powered by the battery und the image ist directly shown in the googles. The only thing you might not have in the field is the AV cable, but i do so, since i fly most the time with external receiver.
In my quad getting the camera out to adjust the settings is a PITA.
I am actually thinking about wiring the osd joystick pin to a separate connector that can be more accessible from the outside of the quad.
I am guessing the joystick needs powering also so perhaps a passthrough xt60 connector to connect inline with the quads battery for powering the joystick and a little connector for the OSD joystick signal.
i did this on my alien, they way steele did it in the video is the hard way to do it... cut off the tip of the joysick and use that for your drone that plugs into the camera as a permanent solution... on the white wire connect that to a female servo lead(white wire) and tie the black wires together as well from the camera pigtail to the female servo lead... then just mount the female servo lead on the drone where its convenient... on the joystick do the same but with the male servo lead with the black and white wire... plug it in and you have a in your pocket camera settings adapter at all times... flying at night/dusk... no prob... i have not seen a video on it but until today i barely saw a link on the comment below where a similar wiring job was posted on rc group, was gonna make a video on the build but no point now... thought i had something original but guess not... i was just tired of taking 30 min to adj settings(teardown) and knew i could make a better way...
this is super helpful, thank you! ive been having trouble recently with this and im interested in the other fpv hardware and strategies for extending range or quality of transmission. maybe dos and donts? keep on keeping on!
Nice video. So do you still have to take the camera out of the quad to adjust it?
Love the music during the settings :P hahahahaha. Not only good during information but entertainingly funny.
I like the customized OSD cable. I'll be making that next
There is much simpler way thou. I got it from someone at Alien thread on RCgroups.
We take a white osd cable from fpv
Cam add a ground and make a plug, whatever type one likes. So we have an osd out from fpv cam and added ground on copter, fixed permanently ( say 2cm glued to back of the fpv cam).
That stupid harness of stupidity: we cut the bnc/chinch side off. Just by the joystick, on the FPV cam side we make a servo or whatever plug from osd and you guessed it ground. Thats it.
This way when you fly and decide to change something you just plug in osd and ground side of joystick to the plug on copter and 10 seconds later you have it. No need for anything extra. Using fpv goggles etc.
They finally mimic that in new runcam FPV cams but man did it take years!
That's a great setup, thanks for sharing!
+Rob Herman credits to contributors of alien thread on RCGroups
Can you add a link to this?
+Dan Cook I wish, its a large thread thou. I added some text to a picture of the first cable I was testing. Small stays on the quad. I solder ground on all wuads now, plug was there just for test. s31.postimg.org/nmnoqpv4r/image.jpg
+SirCrashaLot much simpler aye ;).
I think I'm going to try the 2.5 mm lens. I'm also running a 2.8 and thought about trying a wider angle lens but didn't want to end up with that nasty fish eye effect. Most of those camera settings are close to what I run so I guess I'll see if they would need to be tweaked at all if I use the 2.5 lens. Thanks for the vid, it was interesting to watch and done well.
How about recommended setting changes for night flying? You almost went there but then didn't.
you should try the runcan swift... only for easy access to osd
very good mr steele
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing those settings 😉
Just add an RCA jack to the OSD controller and plug directly to your monitor. The OSD cable comes with a power barrel connector, just plug in a fatshark battery to power the camera, no need for modding, just the RCA jack.
There's other sony style button input units that allow you to just plug it in and use it, way more compact too. It even seems to work on non sony cams for me.
Hey, thanks for sharing Steele! Much appreciated!
Thanks, I needed exactly this bit of information!
Yes, please show your radio settings. I'm curios what logical switches you have set up.
What i want to see is your OSD. What do you use, How do you plug it, etc... Love you btw
Thanks for the perfect informational video
Turned out, the FatShark bulky cable that comes with the goggles (at least true for my Dom v2) works pretty well with no mods to send video from the cam to the goggles with no fuss. And for power any "barrel" plug with 5-12V like one you would use to charge Taranis or smth similar. Just in case you have that on hand and don't want/need portable DIY solution :)
Would be great if you could do a PNP50 menu settings vid, as I have the pnp50 connected to my ''rotorriot'' alien build and don't see any on screen display at all. Even when I press the menu button I dont see the osd displayed. Vid quality is perfect though and the rest works fine except that there is no OSD shown.
bro your awesome bro smart as ever thats so frappin cool thanks scott aka demoliition
Thanks for this, Steele.
great settings for sure !!! thx a lot, someone had problem with dvr recording ? today i've test those setting but when i've record it seem's that my vids is completely moved .... like one part of my vids is on the bottom and the other in the top bottom :/
Steele do you have a way to change the settings while the camera is in the alien. Kind of a PITA to pull the top off and camera out in the field. Can u explain if you do or make a quick video?
Do you use your HS1177 on 4s?
I plugged my HS1177 directly into 4s and it went grey. It wasn't the VTX, so I'm wondering if you use a power filter to power your Camera?
Also, do you know a solution to this problem?
Cheers
Hello Mr Steele and thanks for the tip you Rock!
But, but,... RED, I'ts sooo Red! lol looking forward to trying it
what is the range (distance from you) that your current setup will fly without falling out of rf range?
Great Vid, Thanks I like seeing different settings from different people. This helps me understand what i might possibly like for my setup. Can you do a simple switch set-up on your Taranis? I still do not understand the whole throttle switch thing, to much information on use it, don't use it, set it this way, no don't.
I fly with thumbs normally and after watching RR vid on pinch vs thumbs, I am now trying the pinch method. it is going to take time on that however, good stuff keep it it up.
what's the module you have attached to the back of your taranis? some kind of range extender?
awesome I was just wondering about this thanks Steele!
Nstc or Pal mr steele?
Great video as always. Question when building quadcopter said do you bother with getting both CW and CCW motor threads or just get CW motors.
Mr Steele... what do you think about osdoge?
Have these settings changed for you at all since this upload? I just used them and it's pretty damn good. Thanks
Hi Steele, you forgot to show the font color settings, but for me this is not a problem :)
Good idea, cut osd control wires.
Best regards
Thanks Steele .
Mr. Steel, do you fly with an OSD. Why / Why not?
your a rad dude man thx
Nice work on the vlogs man...Make a build video on the tiny whoop ;)
Maybe its just me being a video technician that works in tv etc.... I just find this one a strange subject for people to ask about, for seeming so simple.
Maybe I'm just taking what I learned at work for granted and think everyone else knows what I do?
But yeah basic idea is dont set up the camera "properly" for filming etc or trying to make it look "right".. you want to set it up to highlight everything you see and need to see when flying. Just be aware that in this camera you can raise the output levels too high... fat shark goggles have enough range to fix that but I've discovered that if you have pedestal (the lowest or black level of the signal) too high and the brightness cranked up, you can basically send a video signal that is a higher voltage than should be.. an minimosd micro for example will then start to flicker with it's overlay as its being overloaded..
Basically.. make things look like you need but dont go over crazy... if you have an oscilloscope, plug it in and dont go over 1v and set the blacks to 0.3v
Great video !!!
Great video again. But you forget the DWDR Settings
That's a good idea to just use a spare Vtx for your OSD... it's still a PItA having to deal with the connection in a QAVR
What setting are you running on your go pro?
Spot on man I appreciate the vid. Huge fan. Here's a question for you have you ever tried FPV wings or any fixed wing FPV?
Yup there's videos in my channel :)
many thanks it's super helpful.
Very helpful. Thx!
Thanks for the settings! Good thing that a/c unit didn't kick on in the middle of your filming! LoL.
try the fatshark 2.1mm lens its awesome
Hi, i bought one of these cameras in rotor riot store, im having a problem with this camera sometimes it change to black and white and back for a while and back to normal, im testing indoor with artificial light? Maybe thats happening because of low light condition? I also tryed your settings but the colors look very diferent from reality. Thank you
Thanks for sharing!
I notice from your Video Logs that you always plug in a single headphone and was wondering where the audio signal comes from since i don't see an audio out wire on the FPV Cam, thanks in advance.
VTX's can have a built in mic also
Hey Steele, how do you get the voltage (osd) into your picture? is it possible with the kiss v2? Or do I need an external OSD?
Very helpful, thx.
Thanks for sharing. 👍
Whats the bet 2.5mm lens sales pick up suddenly. Once again thanks for your efforts. love your vids. ripping ballz..... (tm) that sht haha
So I'm also making the stupid wire harness and on the video side there is also a ground wire, should this be spliced in with the ground from the power wire or just be last disconnected
what is the angle you us for your camera ?
25 i think he uses, very very low actually .
Do you fly with oneshot enabled? It makes my motors sound weird however my quad flies better with it.
Thanks for your introduction, but is that camera with audio? How do you get your Sound down to the ground station? Thanks in advance
In the past he used the pnp50 mic, now he uses the mic on the steele pdb, alot of cameras have a built in mic now too you could use such as foxeer arrow v3 or the runcam swift 2
I just used these settings and everything looked to have and orange tent. Is that normal?
good info :) Hawaii Drone Racing
I get black screen (no image) in mid flight most of the time during a punchout.Got in in my vortex 250 how to solve this?
awesome vid
Thanks STEELE
Hi. Thanks for your videos and especially sharing your settings on this camera !
It looks like we did the same mod on this stupid harness, I never used it as delivered and immediately customized it :-)
There is one submenu you have not shown : what is the setting you use for wide dynamic range (EXPOSURE / DWDR) ?
Probably 63, but if you could confirm...
The hyatt Miami are on the phone, .....they want their lifts music back!! LOL :-) Runcam swift has separate lead that does all the setup on separate port.... the way sony should have done it the 1st time!!
