Hi folks and welcome to my small mainly R/C channel.im mainly into micro freestyle drones up to 3" using high rates and just pure fun flying etc and you can get the idea from there,this channel is mainly aimed at beginners in the hobby who want to get into freestyle drones,tech tips & mods,plus a few experiments,I've lots of things in the pipeline like fpv racing drones from different camera positions and many other things coming in the future like a few R/C trainer planes hopefully an video editor will make videos better to view as I'm new to this,I love making these videos for you to see and hopefully you guys enjoy watching them?coming very soon,ExpressLRS and caddx Walksnail avatar HD system.tune in or subscribe to see any latest clips and comment if you have any questions etc and lastly thanks for watching.Keep em out of the trees folks! Happy flying.
DARWIN FPV BABY APE KUSTOM🐵testing new pid and filter tune.
Messing around with filtering and pid tunes especially the feed forward ⏩.
changed from D-shot 300 bi directional to D-shot 600 which all lowered the CPU as it was very high in its original state,i didn't know if this model was tuned by its original owner but it wasn't standard settings although it flew perfectly well but flight times was considerably lower with high CPU readings.my tuning lowered the settings mostly and flight times seem much better with much lower cpu readings on the F411 flight controller,almost half less.

Просмотров 1423 месяца назад
Testing these 60mm tall FPV antennas at 25mw on my walksnail HD vrx system in a big field to see how they perform compared to my others.the idea is these are twice the height as the thrashers so would sit higher on my head and give better reception especially flying behind myself.
DOGCOM 550mAh 150c 1s BT2.0 (Layered Batteries)
Просмотров 555 месяцев назад
These are layered not folded cells and promises high performance,they fared amongst the highest in Chris Rossers battery tests(not the 1s version though as it wasn't tested)so will it out proform my GNB 525 hi volt battery's in efficiency beating my average 3.5 minute flights?? Conclusion:5 minutes and ten seconds, that's over a minute and a half better🙆

Просмотров 3246 месяцев назад
Are tri-blades better?here we try two different makes of 2inch tri blades,Gemfan Hulkies and HQ T2×2×3 and see how they perform to the bi-blades. conclusion: bi-blades good for speed and battery life but at the cost of thrust and high hover values(35%)great for cruising. tri-blades good for low end thrust and low hover values(19%)but at the cost of slightly less battery life.great for freestyle...

thanks anyway
If yours is a spi Elrs receiver you'll find the bind button on the betaflight reciever tab page,press that then go to your lua script on the transmitter and press bind and it should work,make sure both major versions match ie V2 or V3.good luck👍
@@cyclops-fpv I have the RTF kit FrSKy D8
is it beside the boot button
No.do be aware mine was the FRSKY D8 version!my other crux3 is Elrs.
@@cyclops-fpv i have the frsky D8 version i see something that say bind but its just to small to understand so do it have some does it have bind beside it ok the onley button i see is the boot button do the button look like the boot button i want bother you no more but you been a great help im, new to this just now got the hang of flying race drones im not good at but got the hang of it a little and its fun
where is the bind button
Underneath the flightboard next to motor 3 plug(near the camera plug)do not press the boot button In-between motor 1 and USB port or you'll have a bad day.
@@cyclops-fpv ok i see the boot button still looking how far from the boot button if you dont mind me asking
@@tommypoteat9433 it's on the other end of the board in-between the two motor plugs near the camera plug.its a tiny button (the same size as the boot button)
@@cyclops-fpv is the rtf version the same as the bind and fly version meaning are the bind button located in different areas
Thanks for the video. I think I’m going to be switching from analog to goggles x
I just don't get it, mine flies terrible. Corner taken a little too sharp or even a small split s and i get tons of propwash. I tried tinkering with the pids but i just caused a fly away. I just can't believe that it flies so poorly. It's my 3rd happymodel quad and all others flew amazing straight out of the box. I even get propwash when i just drop a couple centimeters before i raise the throttle again
Download the stock cli dump after you put it in bootloader mode OR your ESCs might need reflashing,should be on D-shot 300.
I have the Crux3 1s also but have never taken it out that far. Hats off to you sir..
850 mAh battery can give me 11 minutes so could fly it further if I can find a longer field.
Very cool, man 👍👍
Not bad for a 1s micro on Analogue huh👍
@@cyclops-fpv it’s great 👍👍
Man, that's great distance for that setup. I think your vtx may have been the limiting factor followed closely by battery capacity. Your receiver really hung in there for spi. I was surprised. Thanks for sharing that Cyclops. Happy flying amigo 🫡 🍻.
@@Sonic_Ox i think it can go further but I need to find a longer field,vtx power can go to 400mw on this model I was only on 100mw.i did this field again a week later on my MOBULA 8 at 100mw this time i did it end to end(1.6km)and vtx held perfectly but flew slightly lower to ground.
Good luck with it. I'm sure you can get further with more power from the VTX. With my 7" analog unit I can get just over a mile before the video feed breaks up and that's on 800mW of output and unobstructed line of sight at about 300ft of altitude! I was expecting more range. If I decide to push it further, I will focus on antenna mods. Thanks for sharing your adventures Cyclops. I enjoy your channel. Happy flying amigo. 🫡 🍻
I could fly 10 km using elrs 😁🙏
Yes but this is a spi receiver with a ceramic Antenna not a UART based one,much less range max range is about 1.5km
@@cyclops-fpv oh okay 👌
ruclips.net/video/RtNR8lEGTkY/видео.htmlsi=SzieXqd7AGpEYmoR
nice👍
You should bind your vtx power to a switch, so you can fly on 25mw and turn it higher when needed.
Good idea not sure how to do that I will check it out.
@@cyclops-fpv Joshua Bardwell has a few video's on this subject.
Good show! That's a long way for that quad. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Happy flying amigo 🫡 🍻.
Great flying and filming Cy. Even if it was just burning packs down to storage. I look forward to your upgrade projects. Happy flying amigo 🫡 🍻.
These and the tattu 500mah r-line are among the best. Obviously only with BT2 plug. For 65mm whoop the dogcom 320mah bt2 are the best.
Agreed the R line gold is the best even with the ph.20 plug I got ten minutes flight on my crux 3 1s quad yesterday.i want to try out the 'lava'layered cell battery next.
Question is there a buzzer on Mobula 8 I've got the v fly with battery but it's a bit heavy nice to no a strap will fit through
No buzzer but you can add one.
Hi. You need 3s for that motors & props. Pavo20 2015 props, 1103 8500kv on 3s. If too much power, adjust motor output number.
That's odd because my flylens 85 and Mobula 8 are both 2s and they both come stock with these props on.🤔
Make sure your esc's are flashed at 48KHz or 96KHz. I get 5-6 minutes cruising on 500mAh on 0802 25000 kv.
This MOBULA 7 I was testing it on is my test rig,im going to build another model at some point and try your suggestion it's only doing 2 minutes on a 525mAh battery with BT.02 connector,then lose connection on the goggles because power drops too quickly and it's doing some funky reading on the voltage screen.2.6volts but when I go to charge it battery voltage is at 3.7volts!also battery gets warm after each flight.
Hey, from all my prop testing, the iflight defender 20 props perform really well. Give them a try.
Probably different weight class,mine is Walksnail at 84g without battery but it's cold so will affect battery performance,maybe in summertime will run longer flight times.
Brilliant video Cyclops. I use a RadioMaster Pocket myself for controlling my 7" build. I love it. I run 2.4GHz ELRS, analog fpv cam and VTX, and use INAV 7 firmware on the FC. It's been a great set-up for my purposes. Thanks for the great video. Happy flying amigo. 🍻
GREAT reviews❤
Thanks for that. I'm considering the Flywoo. I'll bet that's a lovely place to fly when the weather is better. Happy flying amigo. 🍻
Highly recommend getting one it's fast for a 2s and handles Acro perfectly even with the bi-blade props.
It's nice to meet you Cyclops. I just finished my first DIY build. It's a 7" as I'm not really into acro flying but prefer long, stable, sweeping flight for capturing cinematic video footage. My next build will be a cinewhoop that I can fly indoors when the weather is bad. I do enjoy watching all types of flight videos and meeting friends all over the world. What I like best about this UAV hobby is viewing snippets of the lives of friends in far off places and not having to buy a plane ticket to visit lol. Thanks for creating interesting, informative, and entertaining content. Happy flying amigo!
Are you sure yours will only run off or 5v?? I have one and it and do 3.1-13V. I’m in the middle of my first HD build and my Walksnail is a version 3.
Dunno gonna check with a multimeter,but I can always solder it to a 5v pad if needed.
@@cyclops-fpv looking forward to seeing your finished product.
Hey man! I bought this frame to put my mobula 7 on, you had to cut a piece of the frame for the camera wires when you mounted it?
Yes front left ring,but I've now got a Walksnail HD system on it now.
nice flight!
That's a cool tool to have. Hopefully the price will come down 👇
Takes abit of getting used too but with practice very handy indeed especially if you turn off LBT on the radio and the power goes up,also tested on Antennas and the BETAFPV ones were tuned spot on.
@@cyclops-fpv way to go Beta FPV.😎
What are the stock rates I want to put those into DRL sim so I can practice with those rates
About 400°
@@cyclops-fpv in roll pitch and yaw? And if so thanks
@@LetsGetGaming. Yes,very linear rates on all four access.
@@cyclops-fpv ok thanks just put that in my sim time to make a replica of my house so i can practice even if my batteries are dead
Looks like flight times are lacking maybe a 650 1s. I will be trying this build out on some 1002 22k RCinpower motors.
That was a 450 because it was lightest I had,ive got 750s and 850s 1s batteries to try yet.
How were you getting away with all that distance on 25mw?
25mw will do over 400 metres easily with no obstructions as I proved in another videos I did as long as Antenna placement is correct.
Hello, about this frame... Which batteries fit?
450,525 mAh fits perfectly but any others are a bit tighter.
@@cyclops-fpv which Brand? Can you kindly share links?
@@recifestargazer2192 I use GNB batteries,you can get them in most places.
I see your video was 2years ago....I'm wandering if you're still flying this? I bought this plane a few months ago and can't put it down..... such fun and it makes me push my own limits 😎
Yes I do fly it from time to time and I agree it's a lot of fun,on expert mode it doesn't fly that great but in mid position switch it will do power loops and seen people fly it inverted but I never could,it can carry a camera to fly FPV and I've done a video which I flew 30 minutes non stop on one battery.
Did you get better flight times ?
Difficult to tell,I did one flight with a 450mah and 2nd one with a 525mah battery and due to the winter cold(li-po S hate the cold)I got what I expected in this weather,in the summer I should get a extra minute out of them.gonna try the GEMFANS tri-blades next.
I'm the same as you. I thought I'd be getting the 1S lite kit with the vrx but received looks like the non-lite 1S kit. Has the heatsink, the slightly heavier camera with the mounting holes and the circular antenna. I'm rethinking what quad to put it in also given it's a little heavier. It's all good though I don't mind. It was a good price.
Yep for £180 I'm not complaining but it's thrown me of the build I had planned,now I'm gonna rethink the plan and build a 1s quad with larger props like the crux 1s or the BETAFPV hx115 they dont sell anymore.wanted to fit this quick so I could try it out,oh well I guess I'll have to wait a while longer😖
Hi, so I got the exact same equipments but the module adapter wont screw down completely and it’s on a lot of stress so how do I fix that
I found that too,i just reroute the wires in a loop then screw down the bay adapter make sure wires aren't trapped and unseen.takes a few attempts but you'll get there with patients.bad planning really they should have made a deeper recesse.also make sure the screws don't cut into the wires when you screw them tight.
Yes Elir is a bit mind-boggling. when u order jumper T lite v2 on bangood there 2 version vp4in1and the v2 Elrs do u know the difference? I fly the DJI brick but I want to get into analog Elrs
im loving it man
Thanks bro that's a great compliment👍

awesome explanation man
Been watching your videos for a while now I bort the MOBULA 7 based on your videos and it's awesome in fact I bort two of them.

it is wonderful man
Bro that intro 🤣
Can this module use with Jumper Tlive V1?
Yes same with any multi protocol transmitter but you need. To load edge tx and ELRS lua script to radio(SD card)
oi its cool yea
7 minutes!? damn! gotta get some of those!!
Ten minutes on 650 batteries(Tattu R-line)GNB's too
@@cyclops-fpv damn thanks! Do you notice less performance though? Does it keep the speed and the punch? Or is it just for cruising
@@honkingblitz both really but I use it for long-range flights,got express ELRS receiver on it.,watch them FRSKY Antennas they are brittle and break easy and hard to find to replace.
Doesn't kill performance it adds to it so longer at full throttle as long as the C rating is high on battery(90c etc)
Are you using the standard 450mAh 3s 75c batteries,i just bought one off of ebay so i'm totally new to fpv,also have you noticed the vtx heating up,i tested my EV800 and drone camera and noticed the heat at the micro sd card socket while holding the drone. I'm an electronics technician and it shocked me a bit,i assume air flow would help if it's normal,i hope it's normal if so i may try to sort a heat sink . Any advice would be most appreciated mate. Good info about the antenna set up.
Turn the vtx power down to 25mw or have it turned to disarm power to 25 on betaflight vtx table(should be option on there)or use a fan on it while working on it.on high power the air would cool it down while flying,as for batteries I use the ones supplied or use 650mAh even 700's(they come with Tattu 550mAh batteries.)
To focus put in hand so hand is background
I have an issue with my Cessna 182 RC plane. The motor is dislodged from the planes insides, and is coming forward and out when I try to get it to fly. If anyone has any solution for me to secure the motor in place or anything like that please let me know 👍

I used gemfan 1610-2 on my 73mm nazgul frame build 26g dry weight, it's pretty durable even though I crashed at night.
I find that the HQ props are good but snap at the hub as soon as you hit something.both HQ and GEMFAN are a bit loose on the motor shaft though!
