Edward: Your video is REALLY excellent. Great video, great audio, clear detailed instructions. This video will make setting up my Hee Wing T1 easy thanks to you. Great job! - Jim
Hello. i am having an issue, while following all the steps, the radio calibration panel wont respond. while the radio connects to the plane, the inputs just don't show up in mission planner. I know this video is one year old and you probably wont see this, but i would like to hear ideas on how to fix this
Great video, I have bought this model but still need time to assemble, this video gives me great hope very well advised and informative looks easy but lets wait and see.
Can I suggest upgrading to FX-25A ESC's? LOL buddy good to see you, and this plane! Some backstory, Edward the Hero was pivotal in helping me upgrade my Ranger VTOL to FX-25A's from the stock FX-20A ESC's, due to an included ESC failing at takeoff, on flight 5. No damage at all, and in fact the replacements arrive today! I have had nothing but Wins with this plane, the failed ESC the only bump so far. By tonight, though, barely an inconvenience.
Hello again :D I did fly it and it fly really good! I need to adjust it better though because in stabilize mode the correction is more than it should on the wind. One more thing I did is that I installed a lidar sensor and while in qloiter the precision is great (mine is max 8 meters max, that depends on the price of lidar). Now i need to see some tutorials for tuning :D i use the heewing board.
Is the throttle linear in qloiter. It feels jumpy. I haven't flown yet. The throttle feels correct in fbwa. This was done one the bench holding it in my hand.
I am having trouble once I get to the radio calibration stage. I am using a Radiomaster Zorro and a R81 receiver. My radio and receiver bind successfully, and the aileron and elevator servos move when you tilt the airframe as if trying to stabilize. But none of my radio inputs are registering in mission planner or with the servos. I must have set something in my radio incorrectly but i am unsure what. Any advice is appreciated.
HI bro. first verify that you have input/reaction on the Radio Calibration page as you move the stick Also before that, please set the RC in parameter to the SBUS first as it may came as ELRS RC in parameter.
I have qloiter/fbwa/qrtl on channel 6 3 way switch, how do i add one of my other switches to mix in so that i get all 6 modes working? I trued fbwb and wrecked my plane so unfortunately i have alot of gluing to do now lol
Oh TX you mean the radio 😂😂 actually I reversed from the MP in the beginning, but it wasn't working as it should. And somehow it's reversed from the Radio on all my ardupilot planes.
I bought one and still sit at home nothing happens bc I have no idea to get it going due to all these setup n software updates n etc… 🥴 I wish this company be more considerate to newby rookie FPV like me 👍😒
May I ask, is the connector pin between the wing and fuslage for non-vtol identcal to vtol version? I was thinking if I want to fly non-vtol, I just swap the wing and remove the tail motor
The LED connector on the FW is repurposed for the Tilt Servo on the VTOL, so you'd have to consider that ifin you want to play musical wings between VTOL and non-VTOL constructs. Also, I would just consider leaving the boom motor and prop in place when operating in a FW-only context - they don't contribute too much drag, I suspect.
not recommended because ch4 is used as arming and disarming the motor too. I have tried this myself, assigned slider to Ch4 and one day I found out why my motors have already disarmed itself. Get receiver with SBUS output + physical PWM output pins so you use pan tilt on ch7 and 8. I just did that on my DW Eagle with FC. Receiver such as radiomaster R168 or R86C
Ed: fantastic video. Your English is GREAT!You speak very clearly for it not being a native language to you. This video has my wallet hurting already
Edward:

Except the instructions are WAY to fast for a beginner . Barely 1 sec on screen makes it hard to see what he is actually doing.
Cant wait until the factory T2 Cruza VTOL comes out
This was a very well done video. So much info, quickly, and easy to understand.
Thank you for your feedback!!! Really appreciate that! it was such a torture to make such a long video deep into midnight. sleepy
Very concise, but yet still great on the important detail. Good job.
Best setup tutorial! What is your range and flight time with this setup?
omg! thank you so much for making this Edward! beautiful video.

Could you share your parameters please.i have one of these and I am having issues with the controller keeps disconnecting from fight controller.

it's already on FX-25A unless you got some old stock
No problem bro. Good to hear! 😁😁

This video is so helpfull thanks!!!! My first problem is that i cant calibrate the compas.... 1 thing at a time to solve!
I really like this!!

Do you have a video on just the rc radio setup i have the Radio master pocket
Thank you for the demonstration.
You have a very wise and meticulous nature.

6 flight mode setting is mentioned on the 20:00 :)
@EdwardRCAir i finally figured it out lol a little confusing but getting on adrupilot website in the elrs section helped a bunch!
Love this
Fantastic work... would you be able to do a video on setting up failsafe?
that is receiver specific. there are so many receivers. it's pretty simple, on the receiver manual :)
Can I use any 4s battery?
Nice review bro. How high altitude can it go..
Hello, may I ask how did you program the logical switches to change into multiple modes? Never done this before...
Do you already know how to do it? I would like to know too
Id like to know as well, i can only get gloiter/fbwa/and qrtl. Could i replace fbwa for manual?@@diegogallego5356
Nice video, my only query is that you reversed one of the outputs on your TX, I thought they should be reversed within Ardupilot & not TX ?
Hi. Which tx at which minute ya?
16.01 for next 10 secs - though you're supposed to do that in Ardupilot ?@@EdwardRCAir
Oh TX you mean the radio 😂😂 actually I reversed from the MP in the beginning, but it wasn't working as it should. And somehow it's reversed from the Radio on all my ardupilot planes.
Great job dude

Getting me one now and I'm feeling your pain, I'm going over all tutorials but it's a lot of info wish they had a rtf version.
Git gud

yeap same hot swap connector.

@@TodWulff yeap
So can i use Channel 4 on the f405fcx as a FPV camera servo or is it open for a reason?
not recommended because ch4 is used as arming and disarming the motor too. I have tried this myself, assigned slider to Ch4 and one day I found out why my motors have already disarmed itself.
Get receiver with SBUS output + physical PWM output pins so you use pan tilt on ch7 and 8. I just did that on my DW Eagle with FC. Receiver such as radiomaster R168 or R86C
awesome!
Can i replace fbwa for manual?
preferably to have a manual just in case your gyro gone wrong or stabilization set reversed. u can replace fbwa on the Auto mode
Your pretty clear but u go to fast 20 minute mark and i cant figure out how to set up manual mode
the manual mode you set it on mission planner
on the radio, 6 modes are created
Doese it needs a compas gps to have position hold?
of course
👍👍👍
I wish we weren't forced to use sbus
you are not forced to use SBUS. this supports multiple protocols. PPM. ELRS CRSF
@@EdwardRCAir Where do you plug the servo leads from the RX?
@@TheRattleSnake3145 the "RC In" bro. Or one of the Uart if you know how to configure the param
@@EdwardRCAirThere is no "RC in" And I don't know how to configure Uart.
@@TheRattleSnake3145 there is a "RC In" printed on the case of the FC man

Qloit is so damn sluggish out of the box
I reccomend Qtune first,
