I didn't need to watch this video. I've been setting up quads on Betaflight for as long as you have. I still watched the whole thing! Good tutorial, bro. This will really help new people and I appreciate that you took the time to do that!
I have been buying PNP for a year now; I just built my own, and this was a lifesaver video. I know i will use it again. Thank you so much. Great job; it is excellent for us beginners. I didn't feel i needed to know what every box or drop-down does!
Thanks for this video! really on point and quick! cheers from mexico, i just wanted to install new 4.5.1 firmware on my new cinebot30, buy i wiped all factory settings, this way im gonna try setting it up from zero!
Great tutorial! Regarding board and sensor alignment: sometimes manufacturers will bake in a gyro adjustment for the FC - even if it's not in a BNF. I ran into this recently with a brand new Mepsking FC that caused some issues when I reflashed to 4.5; the "stock" gyro alignment was CW 90°. Take note of the stock alignment before reflashing.
Amazing video as always. Thank you very much! I have an iflight evoque v2 F5D. Iflight reinforce in OEM documentation and they website that I should not update my firmware so I don't loose the OEM presets. Is that so? My evoque is on 4.4 version and I use GPS which has a bunch of upgrades on 4.5 but I'm afraid to update and mess up my perfectly working drone.. Thanks again!!!
You can go to the presets tab and save a backup of the current configuration on your drone that iflight set up. then update to 4.5 and then dump the config file into the CLI tab. That will put the tune and all the settings they made back on the drone. If you have any issues you can always downgrade firmware back to what it was and again dump the config file into the CLI tab and it will reset everything back to what it was.
Great vid ! Killer info … well explained. At about 48:00 , done with motors tab, you said disconnect from BF and fire up with battery and radio. Tried it , but it wouldn’t arm the motors to check them. Green light on TBS rx and bound. Any ideas? Thanks.
Awesome, Chris Rosser mentioned you, I actually found you before. Great well to the point explanations. Building a Mario 5, thinking of using the AOS 2207 (Rosser) motors. Looking for Acrobatics with some limits, range is important. I am in the mountains of B.C Canada. F7 or 405 ? Thanks for all the great info, GPS important (will follow your setup)
HI your video is best explained but in BF 4.5 you need not set osd displayport device in CLI .This can be donein the ports tab ,when you select MSP for the uart of HD VTX then in the far right of the ports tab ie in the periferals you have to select MSP+Display port in the same UART fof MSP and in the preset tab you can select a preset of all HD prtofiles and assign the UART on which MSP has been selected . It is very user friendly now .try this on your next Build
awesome video man, i just got my gofilm20 from caddxfpv and before that i had a aquilla16 rtf kit for 2 kits the first drone has different modes than the second, i want to backup the new drone and maybe change some flight modes, anything to consider?
Can I tune my GEPRC DJI 03 MARK 5 here?…I just configured my buttons yesterday…but everyone is telling to get it tuned to my liking..am I at the right place???? Thanks in advance!!!!
I see you flew a speedybee 3.5 and wondered if you are using the same rateporfile setting ? or what will you recommend for presets and rate profile setting .Thanks
Sounds like maybe your switches aren't set up where you think they are. Try plugging it into the computer without a battery and check your switches and also check if there are any arm disable flags.
I have just finished binding everything (using DJI FPV controller and Goggles Integra and when I arm the drone and start to apply the throttle, the motors spin at a certain speed and I can't increase or decrease the speed it's like it get stuck. The throttle only goes about 20 - 25% then gets stuck. I am trying this without the props on and on the floor, in angle mode just to make sure they work.
@@siriuslaat4976 angle mode might be the reason its doing that. Try putting it in acro. Also check your channel mapping in bf to make sure all your inputs are working correctly.
Yoooo what’s up! My Cetus lite will come in on Sunday if I use beta flight with my Cetus lite (which can’t use Acro) can I reprogram my drone to have acro with beta flight?
I don't think so but I'm not 100% sure. Some of the betafpv boards aren't running betaflight or are locked out from programming. It should have a manual mode though.
@@Kai_editz14 the cetus lite does not have a manual flight mode and the flight controller is not programmable. So it will not do flips or rotations. The regular cetus and pro have manual modes and will do flips and rotations.
How to increased caddex vista unite max power output with dji goggles 2 I'm facing range problem it's disconnected in 200meter Can u help And your gps rescue settings worked properly
You need to do the HAM file hack in your goggles 2. look up ham file hack and watch madstech video he will show you how. And in your goggle menu go to transmission then channel mode, select manual. and set bandwidth to 40mhz and select any channel 1-3 once you have done the ham file unlock. there might be some other options in the goggle menu for the vista but im not sure because I don't have one.
I just flash my firmware to the latest one 4.5 BTFL and in betaflight my rx (crossfire) can communicate with my drone like for eg roll/ pitch/ yaw etc. And on the modes tab I can arm, disarm, toggle between the angle, acro and horizontal. But then when I take my drone to the park, hook it up with a new battery pack and try to arm it. It won’t arm it at all. I see that it flashes blue to green when I toggle between Acro mode to Horizon mode and to Angle. What I did in betaflight: Arm the quad in 180 degree angle. Tried turning off the air mode. Didn’t work. Tried turning back on the air mode. Didn’t work.
plug into the computer and try arming it. (TAKE YOUR PROPS OFF FIRST). And check the setup tab, on the right side of the screen you should see system info and arming disable flags. See if it shows any arming disable flags and what they are.
For analog vtx, go to the ports tab and under peripherals select either TBS smart audio or IRC tramp for the uart your vtx is soldered to. If you dont know which protocol your vtx is just try both smart audio and IRC tramp. One of those should work. And you need to have your VTX tab set up with the band and channels. select which band and channel you want to be transmitting and then make your goggles match that band and channel. here is a link that will help with analog vtx setup. ruclips.net/p/PLwoDb7WF6c8nT4jjsE4VENEmwu9x8zDiE&si=h_CHvUDq1FPqHFPA

HAHA I just watched a couple of your drone builds and they are awesome! Glad you are adding this to your videos!
Best drone videos in the game!
Have to agree this is as easy as it gets, even though I've built plenty, this was a good watch 👍
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.
Very comprehensive for me, thanks
Thank you so much, exactly the video I needed !!!!!
No problem, Glad I can help!
Hi Mr. Thanks for this. You helped me remember a few things I needed to change, happy flying from Denmark frienD
Glad to hear that!

Hey thanks! F7 if you need the extra Uarts 405 if not. I have a few 405 quads that fly great.
I have got a boxer crush elrs, is there any video to setup it up in beta flight?
Yes Joshua Bardwell has some videos on setting up elrs hardware. I haven't made any videos on it yet.
@ it didn’t help, I need some serious help, is there anyone who can make some time to help me?
It's very helpful information about betaflight conf,thanks man.I just want to ask you what is Uart 4?
@@marijopetrovic1841 no problem 😁. Uart 4 on this board is for the bluetooth chip so you can wirelessly connect to the FC using the speedybee app.

Yes you can tune it betaflight. look at the time stamps and follow the steps I showed. Tuning starts at 20:46 and ends at 27:01 of the video.

Would you know why when I go to arm my drone un plugged from laptop and battery connected all the drone does is beep.
Sounds like maybe your switches aren't set up where you think they are. Try plugging it into the computer without a battery and check your switches and also check if there are any arm disable flags.
Nice tutorial. Btw I want to use a preset but I dont know what should I choose for my cinelog25 geprc what will you recommend?
If it has a factory tune id keep that. If not im sure there is some cinewhoop tunes available.
rpm filtering is this needed?
@@trigatupp Definitely not needed but is a very nice feature if you have a 32bit esc or flash bluejay.

Most probably or usual cause is the antenna of the quad. Try to change the antenna of your drone and see if it helps.
