    Runcam sparrow showing weird characters on screen

    Wayne literally 1 minute ago I fixed it. I connected to betaflight->OSD-> font manager, and selected the bold fonts, uploaded and it worked like a charm. Sounds about the same as the link you sent me Thank you!!!

    Runcam sparrow showing weird characters on screen

    Yeah it's like the OSD where you can see the image behind it, but instead of OSD info it fills the screen with this. I'm also searching for an answer but can't find anything yet

    Runcam sparrow showing weird characters on screen

    So I've hooked up a runcam sparrow on my Realacc150 frame, and although I can see there is a picture in the background, all I see is a screen full of 'V's and some other jitter. I have attached a picture that I took of one screen of my goggles Please help!! Probably something stupid

    When is it time to say... it's not for me?

    A little ironic that I'm finding this acro flying difficult as I'm actually a pilot. I've had my PPL (Private pilot) for 18 years lol. Needless to say I have no issue flying the real thing

    When is it time to say... it's not for me?

    I'm on a laptop (DELL XPS15) with i7-6700, 16GB RAM, not sure about my graphics though. I guess 16GB RAM may not be enough. I have reduced the graphics in the sim options but not much better. I've never had issues with anything that I've thrown at this laptop, including games and CAD...

    When is it time to say... it's not for me?

    Thanks mate. By the sounds of it I was expecting to be able to pickup the controller on the second week and go fly. I am using FPV freerider which I have purchased. I have also purchased Liftoff. Lift off has some awesome features but the graphics are very choppy and it's buggy. It is a beta...

    When is it time to say... it's not for me?

    Thanks guys, I've got my martian 2 ready to go. I'll go down the footy or soccer oval and give it a go. I'll probably take my Lizard with me as well. I was on the sim last night and I usually always fly fpv on there and I'm doing OK. Well I switched to LOS and hell I couldn't even make a...

    When is it time to say... it's not for me?

    So I've spent around $1500 so far on 3 quads, two of which I built and everytime I I decide to push that throttle up (go fly) I'll just stuff everything up and crash within 2 seconds lol. I have been using the flight sim lately and I can keep it in the air most of the time, just not good at...

    Flysight SPX02 goggles

    Has anyone used these goggles or know someone who has? Wanting to know if they are good goggles. I like the idea of the front facing cam. Also wanting to know if these will work with the Phantom drones eg P4P Thanks John

    Lizard 95

    I just got the Lizard last weekend and literally got 20 seconds flight time. I took it up, it berely touched the wall, came down, now one motor won't spin. After troubleshooting I found it's the ESC and not the motor. I'm told there is no warranty because I crashed it. Does anyone know if I can...

    150mm build need advice

    I came across an article or youtube about the GT90 and how to tell the original from the fake. I only have a faint memory of it so could be completely wrong, but if it's the one I'm thinking, the original has a gloss frame as oposed to a matte finish.

    150mm build need advice

    Lol, this is my problem. I have been looking at banggood the whole time. I just ordered everything I need plus a bit more (LED's, buzzers, batteries etc), just over $300. I need to slow down cuz I also just bought this Eachine Lizard95 95mm F3 FPV Racer BNF On the plus side, my 11 yr old son...
