    Strengthening pagoda antenna

    Do you know if coating the shank in glue would interfere with the signal? Or would it be ok as long as I don’t cover the disks?

    Strengthening pagoda antenna

    hey everybody. I have an emax pagoda 2 on my first quad build right now. Reception is great, but after flying for about an hour yesterday I noticed how flexible and bendable the antenna is. It makes me concerned for its durability. If I coat the entire shaft of the antenna in a layer of hot glue...

    FS i6S naming models

    Does anyone know if it’s possible to name the different models I have bound to my fs i6s? I think I know how to bind separate models but for the life of me I can’t figure out how to change the names from model 1, model 2, etc. also bonus question, what is the max amount of models I can bind to...

    Incorrect signals with bad quality

    So I have discovered that the vtx I’m using is rated for 2s-4s power. Right now it is powered by the 5 volt pad on my pdb. Is the under voltage causing the incorrect frequency issue? And would that damage it at all?

    Incorrect signals with bad quality

    No, I replaced the power supply wires and video wire. They plug in with a cheap plastic clip connection on the unify pro. Replaced the whole wire bundle instead of pulling the wires out of the connection, I know that those wires aren’t a problem tho, they have the correct voltage and a solid...

    Incorrect signals with bad quality

    I believe that they are correct, not at quad now, but I will verify later, I believe they are matching, they looked like they meet up when I look at them visually. I can check the u.fl connection. The whole vtx is in a clear plastic sleeve, and it appears connected still. Is there a good...

    Incorrect signals with bad quality

    Ok, need some expert advice. A few weeks ago I finished my first build. Naturally every time I fly something breaks and I have to wait on parts to fix it. The last time I planted it a little hard on the ground and the vtx connection (plug in style) broke. I got a new connector and put everything...

    How long?

    how long did it take some of you from the time you started flying fpv in acro until you could consistently fly a very basic track? I’ve been flying in the liftoff simulator for a couple of months(not everyday) but i feel like I’m just not grasping the fine control thing. And it has resulted in...

    Best tips/tricks for making quad more durable.

    ok, so I know they can’t be super tough, and the best way to keep them running is don’t crash them, but I’m a noob and crashing is inevitable. So my question to some of you more experienced crashers and builders is this: What extra build tips or tricks have you learned over the years to help...
