    US- Houston, Texas - Looking to fly with others

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows of any meetups or simply FPV pilots who want to meet up to fly in the general Houston area? I typically fly at George Bush park in Houston and occasionally see FPV quads but I can never find the pilots. I have a couple of years experience and just want to...

    Flight simulator

    Try liftoff by the Rotor Riot team. Very realistic and only 29.99. It is recognized as a standard in the FPV hobby.

    UART usage

    Hello, would anyone happen to know if I can use a Bluetooth controller on the same UART as the GPS or the ESC?

    Lost telemetry ESC tones

    Does anyone use TBS Crossfire and the Tango 2 remote? I recently set up one and can’t believe the range! The only thing I can’t get to work is the ESC tone when the bird loses connection with the remote. Is that strictly a DJI air unit thing? I am running the air unit as the vtx with the...

    V-tail assistance

    Well, sad to say that I believe I have tried everything to get her off the ground, but it didn’t work. I do appreciate everyone chiming in. It could very well be the design of that particular bird. Technically it should have worked so I have to blame the design. 😂 I do have one more question...

    V-tail assistance

    Hmmm . . . so if I used the orientation and motor ordering in image 4, it should work, correct? Currently I have it with the BF orientation, with the props on correctly, but it still flips. I did notice something . . . it is like the rear props fight each other. If I arm it while holding it...

    V-tail assistance

    OK, I've tried that and all seems to be working ok. (thanks for the systematic way of diagnosing this, you have taught me lots so far!). So the inputs from the radio work fine, bars are in the appropriate range. When I have it connected to BF and use the radio, everything seems to work fine in...

    V-tail assistance

    No apology needed, I appreciate you reaching out. I will try this - using the radio to see what happens while in BF. What I do see is that when im trying to take off, it flips backwards, as if the front is lifting but the rear is not. I’ve had the 3 configs and the props in the back right side...

    V-tail assistance

    Hello, I have a rather strange request…I know V-tails aren’t popular these days but I decided to build one just for S&G’s. I like flying quads but I love building them. I’m using Betaflight and can’t seem to get this one right (pictures attached). I’ve tried the 3 configurations, including the...

    BetaFlight CLI Dump

    Would anyone happen to have a CLI dump for an iFlight XL10, running 2814 1100kv motors with an iFlight SucceX Twing/60A ESC stack? That or anything that might work would be greatly appreciated.

    Help with Rates

    Hello everyone, I am still learning how to tune (I'm VERY green). I've gone thru some YouTube vids and still seem to be having no luck. I have a Sector5 v3 (HGLRC) - 4S - with 2306/2550kv motors. I do some freestyle mixed in with a little cinematic. The issue started when I changed from a GoPro...

    Looking for a CLI dump for HGLRC Sector5 v3 4s version

    Would anyone know where I can get this? Noob here changed the tune and didn't do a dump before I did that. Thanks

    Help: Quad won't take off

    Worked like a charm, thank you! I need to subscribe to more tech knowledge for BetaFlight.
