Co-founder of CvilleFPV based in Charlottesville Virginia. I have been flying quadcopters since early 2015 in the early days of Betaflight and FPV hardware. Mostly focused on acro and cine-type 5" FPV flying with some FPV plane action mixed in. I am also a professional Real Estate Photographer in my area.

Oh nice, building a scope would be fune and you'd get a useful tool to boot!

Nice job, stunning place to fly for sure.

You’re coming along nicely, keep practicing.  Something i suggest is trying to slow down and get LOW.  Reduce camera angle, at least at first.  Try hitting those smaller gaps around your property and keep your altitude consistent.  Do tight orbits, plenty of great features on your property to fly around.

Tuning a DC really isn't any different.  First tune your filters:  https://youtu.be/E3s5XYk3M74?si=SZTlLrUpCxm1exYx  Then tune your pids:  https://youtu.be/1oYoVE4xu1U?si=z7MGLx_B7DRQOpyr

Yea, I've been wanting to build a tool which basically creates input lag in a simulator by intercepting the USB input.

@MrNobody0131 I have my DC well tuned and it flies incredibly smooth, just as good as my X.  Take it from a freestyle pilot since 2015.  In the past a DC was a little more difficult to tune, but software and hardware is so good these days it really doesn't matter for most pilots.  Really the biggest advantage of an X is more camera protection.

@M4R5_FPV I hear ya, the margins are terrible and even if you made a stand out feature giving you some demand, it would be a matter of time before clones from China came rushing in.  Maybe there is still room in the NDAA space?  If there comes a point where you find you really enjoy it and come up with something innovative, always leave the option open...ya never know haha.

Don't have a spare, but I have both frames.  DC is actually what I prefer because the props are not in view.  I run both on a similar tune, both fly excellent with extremely good response and sharp handling.

Its possible we’ll see the camera on its own come in a month or two.  They probably want to make sure they meet the demand first, as im sure a lot of people like us want to upgrade.

It pulls apart pretty easily, doesn’t hurt to check.  Then you can see if you have the confidence to fix, could be as simple as touching the soldering iron to a connection for a second or so.

Very cool, at the very least you’ll learn something!  Keep us updated on progress!

Has anyone been able to source the O4 wide camera on its own to upgrade an old O4 air unit? I've done some searching but haven't found anything yet.

Video quality like this from a whoop is legit insane.

Good progress.  If you feel rushed during the maneuver try being lower on the approach, then do a quick full throttle punch out to toss you over the obstacle with your throttle at minimum.  This will use the inertia of the quad to give you maximum air time so you can smoothly setup for the path underneath.

@Chevrolegs_25 Humm by "set them back" do you mean reset Betaflight? 

Let's take flight together and elevate the world of FPV drones to new heights.
