A few "landings" and take off by ZoHD Dart 250g!

A quick edit of some take offs and “landings” by the ZoHD Dart yesterday. Boy not flown analogue for a while, and that first flight @Yith knows the field well and in the landing part the video had more or less gone at 80/100m (someone MUST have turned something on, had digital interference for sure), had to emergency land, and TBH it was the best landing of the three flights. It’s not just the quality DJI gives me, it’s the damned non break up and consistent video and of course DJI just ruins everyone elses video feed not it’s own, just a selfish system! But hey that’s fine by me as the one flying it :wink: Did change to R8 for flights 2/3

Wing still in tact, and totally fine (in the 2nd clip the camera just DC’d on impact!) I must get better at landing these things!

Er… yeah… you deffo need to improve the landings!

Take off was a big shaky as well!

Heh yeah… landings. I dunno just rubbish, maybe fly that more before getting the new one in the air

To be honest, you don’t look like you’re completely in control of it. You’re having to fight it all the time rather than it doing what you want.

My Zohd is a bit like that, but my Jet isn’t… On the Zohd I put it down to the terrible linkages between the single servo and both ailerons. There’s a big dead patch when you (or the FC) switch directions that the servo moves which results in terrible hysteresis.

It’s not the most stable plane, wobbles all over the shop, a larger wing will help! It’s hit the ground a LOT, but still goes! Master that I’ll master anything. Flew a few on Saturday and was a lot better landing! It’s also judging height and where that “stall” speed is I just need to get used to.

Should just let Josh fly it and see what can be done, lol
