FlyFishRC Tony5 Walksnail Avatar HD Pro No Stabilization
Drove past this spot in the spring, maybe last year? I can’t remember, maybe my buddy @dragonazzFPV can remind me! Anyways, it’s a cool spot to just fly around and I needed to test this quad, that I originally built with DJI O3, to see how it works. I still haven’t figured out how to get decent stabilized video out of any of the Walksnail setups except the Moonlight and honestly this unstablized video is better than after running through Gyroflow 🤷🏻♂️

My friend @dragonazzFPV said we should check this place out so we did and I will be back when I am better prepared with other quads, charged batteries, etc. Has potential for some power loops and other fun things. Really enjoying the Gofilm 20, it flies so well, good flight times and I’m getting happier with the use of Gyroflow and the extra steps needed to use Walksnail over DJI. I’m also real...
Maiden Flight Rekon 5 with Walksnail Moonlight Kit
Просмотров 174Месяц назад
This is the 3rd iteration of the Rekon 5 I have had. I had the original that I got August of ‘21 with a Caddx vista that both the vtx and camera quite working on. I replaced the vista and camera and flew that for quite some time before breaking the frame and some other parts. I replaced it a little over a year ago with a new O3 version of the Rekon 5 and have really enjoyed over the past year i...
Park Cruising Caddx FPV Gofilm 20
Просмотров 52Месяц назад
Caddx FPV did such a great job on this one and the moonlight kit is performing really well. I think the most interesting thing is even with stock antennas on the Goggles X, which I have heard are quite bad, I flew a fair ways behind myself, around a couple of small brick buildings and had no issues at all. My only issue came when I flew around the cell tower, which I have done many times before...

Caddx Gofilm 20 Second Flight 4S 850mAh Gyroflow With Audio
Просмотров 1962 месяца назад
Got out for my second flight with the Caddx Gofilm 20 and also my Radiomaster Pocket with Radiomaster AG01 gimbals. I have to say this is a great combo, the Gofilm 20 is a pleasure to fly and getting around 7 minutes on a 4S 850 is pretty great! I’m really happy with the footage from the Moonlight camera and the results that Gyroflow was able to help produce. I recorded flight audio with my iPh...
Maiden Flight Caddx Gofilm 20 and Radiomaster Pocket with AG01 Nano’s
Просмотров 3492 месяца назад
What a sweet little quad, it flies so nice and is actually pretty quiet for a 2 inch “cinewhoop”. I think the Walksnail Moonlight kit works really nice and produces decent footage that would probably be better if I knew how to color grade at all. I think another thing I need to do is switch to 4:3 if it will let me to get a bigger view which would mean less cropping when I run it through Gyrofl...
Radiomaster AG01 Nano Gimbal Install and Initial Thoughts (sorry for quiet audio!)

Got my hands on the new Radiomaster AG01 Nano gimbals for the Pocket!!!! Sorry for the quiet video, it didn’t sound this quiet when editing and I even turned up the gain a bit but it’s still sounding very quiet to me. I’ll have to work on that in the future.

Walksnail Moonlight 4K Unstabilized and Gyroflow Stablized

First time trying to stabilize video from the Walksnail Avatar Moonlight kit. I think it did a great job smoothing out all the vibes and bobbles. The build, this is like the 4th iteration of this quad that I first built December of ‘22. I finally am feeling pretty great about it. After this flight I did a bit of tuning and the unstabilized flight is smoother now. Frame: RekonFpv Rekon 7 Pro Rec...

Cruising Canola Fields GEPRC MOZ7 DJI O3
So inspiring! Would you say the Altus is better than the T1 ranger and Cruza?
@@JonaverseNo.1 Thank you very much! I have not flown either of the other wings but a friend of mine has both the T1 and Altus and he likes the Altus better. I think now with the release of the VTOL kit for the Altus it’s a really great wing. My only complaint, and I can’t compare to the other wings is, the Altus is not well designed for newer action cameras. I can get my GoPro Hero 4k in the front and if I remove the mounts on the 11 Mini it just barely fits.
@@smithe68 I appreciate your reply, I think you also have an AtomRC dolphin, what do you think of it, and how would you say it compares to the Dart xl design?
Wow, your DJI O3 footage looks great!
Thank you 🙏🏽 Yeah and this is just straight out of the O3 using built in rocksteady stabilization!
thanks for making a short video I'm liking and following because of that
@@LisbonDayTrips thank you very much! I haven’t done much lately but I think about it all the time. Have a great day!
@ thanks actually your content is similar to mine
@ checking your channel out now and subscribing for more!
why do you have only one antenna connected to o3 air unit?
It’s a damaged O3. One of the UFL connectors broke.
Just purchased the frame for $12 bucks Do you have $378.00 dollars i can borrow so I can traumatized my neighbors 🤣
Hi! New subscriber here, I love your videos! I also have the MOZ7 and am looking to upgrade the stock antennas to the FlyFishRC Dual Band polarized antennas. I noticed that each of these antennas comes with two connectors, which means using two antennas would result in a total of four connectors. Could you explain how to connect these four connectors to the two available slots on the DJI O3 Air Unit? Also I don't know how to change the screws that sustain the antennas.Thanks in advance for your help!
@@Mike-jg9fp Hello and thank you 🙏🏽 I made the upgrade myself and you only need to use 1 of the FlyFishRC Dual band antennas. You just need to disconnect the stock antenna extensions that the MOZ7 uses and connect the new antenna in the 2 vacant connectors on the O3 Air Unit. You can just mount the new antenna in the middle. I didn’t even remove the stock antenna extensions from the mounts, I just coiled up the wires that connected to the O3 and left them tucked inside the MOZ7. I hope all that makes some sense. Please feel free to ask more questions if needed.
What's your max flight time and with what battery?
Honestly I have not had a chance to really test it for flight time and I really haven’t been flying as much as I would like. For what it’s worth this flight was on a 3300mAh 6S lipo and there was some battery left.
Would you mind sharing the pids and filters page. I changed the FC to better controller and need to retune. Thanks
I can tomorrow. Will the stock pids be of use with your new FC? What one did you go with?
@@smithe68 it should same frame , same motors. Just the tune should work. I got mamba f7 AIO so I can fly 4s and 6s
@@HasithaJayathilake sorry for super late reply. What's the best way to get this info to you?
Where is that? The Area.
Did you enable the mag? Mine flew in a differente direction when I launched it.
@@fiferox I will have to plug in and check, I honestly don’t remember. I’ll get back to you later today.
@ ok thank
@@fiferox sorry for the long wait, no mag.
@ Thank you maybe next time I will w ok a few feet more before the launch.
Most times with these Digital VTXs they need to be mounted outside the fuse for extra heat dissipation, vents and scoops just don't seem to draw in enough cool air.
Yeah I’ve discovered that’s really my only option. They all run so freaking hot and then other electronics get hot as well. I’ve seen a few people have success with everything internal but I’m thinking they fly in much cooler temps?
Nice flight. What a beautiful spot to fly!
Thick you very much!
nice
Thanks 🙏🏽
you’re gonna cook that esc man lol
lindo voo
Thanks!
What’s your average flight time and what battery do you use?
I’d say 4 minutes and I usually fly with speedypizza 1200mah 6S lipos.
@@smithe68 is that with a GoPro or just the O3
@@jonathanibarra7463 just the O3 and flying fast. If I flew slower I’d get more time.
Nice! I wonder how well those 2004 3000kv motors,handle 6s power.
They handle it great with 3" props. It is definitely too high a kv for bigger props though.
@@smithe68 I see,that makes sense... Happy flying!
@@stst8301 thanks, happy flying to you as well.
@Erik Smith Would you happen to have the setting for BetaFlight for this drone with DJI G3 and C3. I am about to lose my mind. I can't figure this out. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Hello, I’m really sorry but I do not have the G3s, I’ve never even seen them before in person. I know recently some connectivity issues were fixed. I would look and see if mads tech has anything, he’s really up on this stuff. Sorry I can’t be of help with this.
any tips for getting more range out of an analog signal?
@@ryangagnon5489 best things are good high gain antennas on goggles and your quad, taller ones help too. A better analog VTX that can output more power will also help. Before I converted this to digital, I was able to go out a mile no problem with the stock analog setup. How far are you getting out now?
Love it!!🤘 your new equipment looks awesome. Very much enjoyed the video👍👍
Thanks man! I'm digging it too!
Loved it!
oldguyFPV; Very Kool Indeed! #seniorcitizenfpv Fly safe, fly free!
That was a fun rip! Glad we ended up stopping! Really impressed with how smooth the footage is, considering how much wind there was. Nice flight!
@@dragonazzFPV glad we stopped too, I was questioning it at first then was like, F it, let’s do it! I’m pretty happy with how it’s flying and the smoothness of it, not that my flying is smooth 😅
Your drone is awesome Nice flight skills
First class flight and beautiful shot, the little quad really flies well. Do you have Gyroflow well under control now? Best regards
@@BigKahunaFPV thank you very much. I am really liking it, it does fly well. I fee like I do have it under control now, at least with the Caddx moonlight kit. I’m still struggling with it when using other Walksnail setups but I will figure it out.
Nice flight. ❤
Thanks ✌
@@smithe68 you're welcome!
Hey bro, how do they fly? The ag01 nanos.
@@sashabagdasarow497 hey! They are so nice, way batter than stock. If you’ve used any other AGO1’s these are just as nice as the bigger ones. So silky smooth and solid feeling. I’ve barely used my other radios since installing them.
@@smithe68 Woow, awesome. I'm gonna buy them now
@@sashabagdasarow497 I hope you like them as much as I do. I handed my pocket to a friend who also has a pocket without AG01s and he really liked the feel as well.
@@smithe68 I'm sure I will :) Getting my first drone this year
some people use this drone and the footage is filled with popwash filed with distortion filled with problems, yet some people get the drone to work so well it's wild...
@@ocdraridrogonel I hear you, it’s so weird how that works. I’ve seen the same with the O3 in quads, some have no issue, others it’s a nightmare and I experienced both first hand. I think in the case of this little cinewhoop, some of it is getting Gyroflow to work properly and some of it is flight style/radio settings. My particular gofilm is pretty smooth without Gyroflow though, so I got lucky I guess.
@@smithe68 I'm building one as we speak and putting the build on my other yt channel, I'm doing so much research on it, even putting different motors than the caddx, dampeners on each motor, searching the PID research and going to put a gps on it as well, seen a stl file for the front point near the camera, they have a file to put a gps unit on this thing, I'm going to use it for cine style and I want it to look good without having to put a GoPro or peanut on it.

If you want a good quality mic for your phone, and or camera. The hollyland lark m2 is a great mic. Small inexpensive works with usb c, lighting port, or 3.5 mm. Only downside is they don't have internal recording
@@WhiteTrashFPV I’ve heard good things about that model. I actually have a good mic but I forgot it 🤦🏻♂️ I got a fantastic deal on the previous generation DJI dual mic setup, it’s actually quite good, and records internally or on the device it’s hooked up too. I didn’t actually plan well for this but I wanted people to see how good it was from a non pro reviewer. Thanks for watching and the great suggestion, I’m going to pass it on to a couple of my coworkers I fly with.
Thats awesome
@@HamptonFPV Yes it is!
That is so awesome! That must be cool to be able to see with low light.
Yeah it’s wild how good it is. I could see better in goggles than with my naked eye. Take care brother!
That is some really good low light quality 👍
It is, I’m really impressed. I’m hoping to try it in even less light soon to see how it does.
oldguyFPV; Impressive! Fly safe, fly free!
I think so too. I’ve seen others videos but had to see for myself.
