    For someone that doesn't normally do rewinds you have a really good sense of the quad's orientation in space. The fishhook or j-hook you're referring to is a side-lock rewind, and the goal is to exit on the same path you entered, but there is also an illusion component as you mentioned. The illusion comes with the exaggerated stick movement you do to snap into the orientation you need to exit along the same path, and then reversing that small movement on the proper timing to sell the rewind effect. Through that exaggerated movement you can hide some of the imperfections and get away with not exiting at the perfect angle. Once you get that stick feel you can start applying it to other rewind angles that are possible. Unfortunately I don't think there is an easy way to learn it other than just trying it and building up the muscle memory.
    That timing and muscle memory is probably why you don't think your pauses look right, whether it's on rewinds or the other tricks you're doing. The good sbang pilots are snapping into so clean and quick, and then exiting with a movement that's very similar to what they enter with, and our brains pick up on those relationships and it gives it that panache you're looking for. Like on the inverted pauses you should be trying to decelerate into the pause and accelerate out on the same rotation speed and timing, and bonus points if the time you spend inverted is the same as the amount of time it took to do each half roll. It's kind of like how a juicy flick is juicy because you match the rotation of your roll, flip, and forward momentum of the quad.
    On ejects I think you want to be doing a strong exit on the exact moment your quad loses it's upwards momentum and starts to fall because you pitched forward. Pilots will know you're about to start falling, and in that moment of anticipation you burst out of it with forward thrust and snap back to the same pitch angle you'd need to maintain forward flight with your new speed and momentum.
    At least that's my perception of it. It's hard to say if that's really what's going on since what looks good to people is so subjective.

      Amazing additional info and breakdown JoryFPV. Rewinds are one of the hardest tricks ive come across thusfar in my small year of flying fpv and beside the many tutorials ive watched, i can only manage to rewind flat yaw spins and rolls. But grasping the physics and the stick movements and timing needed for a side lock rewind.. pfff just cant wrap my head around it but your explenation is gold. Ill keep on trying. Jb does an amazing job with these vids and he is a fast learner and breaks it down nicely as well. Man i love Sbang

  • @roy1792
    @roy1792 2 роки тому +5

    Love the effort you're putting into learn sbang Josh! in my opinion what ejects help the most is for you to gain speed and at the same time keep the horizon level while travelling since the other way to gain speed is by pitching forward and that way you wont have a flat horizon which does not suit this style of flying for multiple reasons, it will make it harder to have a good horizon lock on inverted tricks and same goes to flat yawspins so its always best to have a flat horizon even when traveling it will make everything link better together and look much cleaner.

  • @travisSimon365
    @travisSimon365 2 роки тому +9

    One thing that I am seeing with your snap rolls is that you are easing out of the second half of the roll. That is, when you are completing the 360, you back off the roll to make sure that you get to straight-and-level flight. The return to normal flying attitude needs to have that same 'let go of the stick' snappiness to it (even if you don't let go of the stick).
    I think part of what makes this style difficult is that, as pilots, we spend so much time practicing being as delicate and smooth as possible that this style of flying becomes even more difficult. It's in the name - you bang the stick to the right and then bang it back to dead-center, with no transition in between, like a robot named Farouk. Watch your stick cam and see how much you ease down to center. Imagine your sticks are more like NES controllers with only center and 4 positions, and then try to move them as such.
    If anything, I would consider adding more expo, not less. Bang the stick to the right, stop exactly half way through the roll, bang it again, and then stop it at exactly level. Easy ... right?

  • @HoltBlackheathFPV
    @HoltBlackheathFPV 2 роки тому +7

    For me, sbang is all about the hard stops and quick changes in direction. It should look like your pausing the video and rewinding at times. Fly smooth between these movements to make the quick movements stand out.
    Rewinds are indeed an illusion. It's about playing with the quads momentum. Your stick movements are where the illusion comes from though, not the actual change of direction, but these need to align for the illusion to work!
    Confusing I know, so DM if you'd like more info, I'd love to help you get there 😊

  • @gadgetrc94
    @gadgetrc94 2 роки тому +1

    I know a couple guys that I would say are pretty accomplished sbang pilots. They get their clean uniform rolls by setting the rates super low (440 deg/s) and then rolling at max stick. The invert then is less about the destination than the journey, and the flight controller does a lot of the work for you.

  • @le_tranq

  • @lemoncfpv8434
    @lemoncfpv8434 2 роки тому +1

    for your rewind, think like you are doing a split s up onto something, then juicy flic out of it.
    the invert, one thing i do notice is your not slamming your throttle to zero completely, hold it tweak your yaw slow... rates are really important i think to get your slow movement good, and your spins controllable. Also get on liftoff and practice some sbang for 50 hours or so then :D

  • @BaconNinjaFPV
    @BaconNinjaFPV 2 роки тому

    So, all of this may sound stupid, but it is what I have learned from doing this stuff. You have to know where the stick needs to be to do what you want and to make it snappy you have to get there quickly and stop dead on it. For me, it feels like I am not thinking about my sticks at all. It feels less like I am trying to wait for a visual cue, and more like I am anticipating every movement and visualizing the flow in and out of it before it happens on screen. Sure there are times where I screw that up, but that is when the flow state breaks for me and I just have to react and get back in the anticipation zone. I also fly low rates, 600dps on roll/pitch/yaw with very little expo on roll/pitch and no expo on yaw. Adding to that, I fly at 15 degrees, which seems like it would make things slow....but I still book it really hard, lol. Basically for me it boils down to predictable rates, precise stick movements without any hunting, reacting effectively and quickly when things aren't perfect, and visualizing everything in real time. Going through the motions of the tricks is the first step, then when you stop having to think about them, that is when the real sbang magic happens!

    @cagmuer 2 роки тому +1

    When you look at sbang videos, they goes from positive XXX deg/s and then directly to negative XX deg/s with no smooth "transition" through 0 deg/s in between. The max rate of the maneuver isn't fast, its just a very solid and very constant. My theory is that they have a very flat center stick sensitivity, low max rates (like 400-600deg/s) and a huge expo set at 1.00 and this would explain how you can "let go of the stick" and not vibrate the quad. The center sensitivity is soo low that a vibration at stick center does almost nothing to the actual PID loop. So, you keep enough center sensitivity to do minor flowy course corrections (like cine settings), and when you deflect the stick, the expo bumps you almost immediately to max rates (which is low enough to control) and when you exit a spin, the expo bumps you back into a locked center near 0 deg/s. This is my theory...........
    Also, super high rates, but with no expo, might have the same effect as low rates with high expo. So both can be right...........

    Got a couple of sbang combos from the eject in one of my latest videos if anyone is interested..
    NO opposite yaw is needed if you line up the horizon correctly, your horizon will not be centre of the screen unless you have no camera tilt. Add some pitch to your rolls instead. then yaw to finish..

  • @zlachannel8674
    @zlachannel8674 2 роки тому +1

    you need to change the iterm gain a little bit and bring up the yaw Pgain and Igain to get more easy/lighter stick movement on the sbang trick/shacking the quad tails in the fast changed direction or breaking in rewinds because yaw axis is the slowest axis in the quad

  • @papamidnightfpv
    @papamidnightfpv 2 роки тому +2

    I let go of the right stick when I go to fly backwards with some speed. When the right stick self centers is easy to do perfectly flat yaw. So when I 180 I know my quad is at the same angle of attack and I know I can keep the same throttle and keep elevation and speed.

  • @MurdersFPV
    @MurdersFPV 2 роки тому +2

    This video isn't particularly Sbangy but it has stick cam of how I do inverted yaws as "clean" as possible and I definitely let go of the right stick. I know for certain that I do inverted yaws by releasing the stick and it took a long time to get that technique down but it's ultimately what I feel makes it look snappy.

  • @FlyHMD_
    @FlyHMD_ 2 роки тому

    On the Sbang trick, seems like it needs to have forward momentum during the roll - pause- then contimue roll while also looking at an object or point in the distance. To me the sbang always seems to make me look at something - whatever the 'target' object is during the roll and beyond as you come out of the roll. Seems like we could anticipate your forward stopping point but would look better if you went beyond the tree/property line you were using as the turn around point

    What stands out in Sbang is imho the choppy transitions between tricks...

Maybe you need log not expo... Is that even possible?

    I think your forward motion is the issue. Try to confine your momentum to a singular 3d position while you are sbangin'... you are using the whole fence length for a "trick" that could be done between a couple fence posts. The "pause" you are looking for comes from coordinating pitch to stop your forward momentum from the time you start to roll inverted to the time you start to roll out. This way you can pause and then rebuild forward momentum before you level out in either position. You are making your flight path too predictable too. Your example of holding the yaw while inverted to make turns, when done at right angles, is another flowy way to coordinate your flight in a way that is less predictable to the viewer. Predictability is part of the illusion of complexity. Once you start thinking more about entry and exit angles for both momentum and camera orientation, then you can really get some nice visual effects in your footage and flight.
