For manual mode flying?
In simplest terms Roll and Yaw together
For manual mode flying?
In simplest terms Roll and Yaw together
use a combination of yaw, roll and throttle to achieve a smooth banked turn, climbing or descending at the same time if wished.
Its an option you can change in sport mode
This dude explains it here, but lost me
A little pitch up is needed in steeper turns too. I am a clueless noob thoughbut.
Doesn’t sport mode coordinate it for you? I read the explanation, but either the answer is gobble de gook, or I’m dyslexic
As a lego fan too I love these ;o)
Oh very nice!!! Now I want a 3D printer too! I guess I’ll have to set up some stuff to get ordered from unmannedtech’s 3D printing service in the meantime.
Just printing some
Printed this earlier.
It’s a lens protector and antenna holder
That also holds spare sd cards
If you set the C1 button you can alter the (“tilt) angle
I had this already set up for you on Saturday and you said “hmmm not bothering with all that shit”
It does the following.
Small angle = as it says, the drone will have a smaller angle when you tilt with the left and right sticks at the same time.
Large angle = as it says the tilt angle is larger so faster turns.
Have a play with it and see what it does.
It only works in sorts mode.
@milkmanchris here you go, if this is not helpful let me know. I’m happy for us to visit Ali’s after I demo a flight for you…
Hell yeah…
It sure was, miss it at times though…I’ve got two sitting in the man cave waiting for the bug to bite again…
Defo not a DJI influencer; just plotless. He thought the 2 March release was going to be a Mavic 3.
After watching 100’s of of reviews, and many adverts pretending to be reviews, I’ve come to the conclusion that this drone is neither a “FPV” quad, or a camera drone, but a “cut and shut” of the two. It’s pretty “meh” at both aspects but it has the options to do both. A little bit like the first high end consumer cameras that could do both stills and HD video in one package. You wouldn’t buy such a camera purely to use as a still camera, nor would you buy it solely for its video capabilities, as for the same price or cheaper you could get a much better camera for either discipline.
I still consider this drone to be a camera drone first and foremost, but with the capability to get dynamic sweeping shots that other camera drones can’t because of their gimbals and lack of agility.
To that end it now makes perfect sense to me. Would I buy one now? NO!
If I’m not already covered for every eventuality with what I already have I never will be (it’s part of the sickness). Also the price of the batteries is criminally insane. If the bundle included three batteries, something DJI could easily do and still make a mountain of profit, I’d give it some serious consideration.
Must admit to agreeing comepltely @Nidge . Fundamentally, it’s too big and heavy to be genuine FPV; you can only crash it once, and you have to spend another £250 to get 2 more 10-min batteries.
BUT
It is indeed a great gateway into FPV for existing Mavic owners who can fly Mavics but haven’t a clue on FPV and have no intention of buying a soldering iron.
Having the ‘brake’ button really is a fantastic tool to learn without crashing and yes, as a Mavic flyer, I have found the sweeping fast videos you can produce in Sports Mode really fun and far more dynamic than any Mavic. But ultimately owners aren’t ever going to be able to push it to its limit because you will only crash this model once.
And as a friend summed up when watching me set it up: ‘what a fukn palava just to fly a drone.’
(As I connected goggles, wired battery, phone to goggles, along with remote, only to then fly for 9 minutes…)
And whilst 9 minutes may be great for genuine FPVers, it doesn’t alter the fact that 9 minutes is crap.
So yeah, it’s an expensive hoon’s toy that takes excellent video and has some very handy features… Very much aimed at Mavic owners, not existing FPVers I think…
He’d have a hysterical fit if he saw us flying fixed wing petrol. I’ve known guys turn up to the field only to spend all day fiddling with needle valves, only to go home without a single flight.
That, to me, is the attraction of FPV.
Actually building and tinkering with something
