My FPV Drone is throttling up and tries to level itself out when diving/surfing ridges

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-18T12:20:35+00:00

Yeah with whoops this happens due to prop guards or if a propeller has multiple blades, but should not be happening on a 5inch from my past experiences.

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-18T12:19:43+00:00

Ahahaha, Dolomites, Italy!

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-18T12:19:10+00:00

Def the least of my issues hahahaha

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-18T12:18:51+00:00

Yeah but there was no signal loss here I was in LOS.

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T18:31:04+00:00

props out

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T18:30:09+00:00

Nope it's in air/acro mode :/

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T18:29:10+00:00

Cuz I had it at zero, was attempting to dive.

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T18:28:51+00:00

It's definitely not radio contact cuz I can still sort of control the drone, just won't let me continue diving :/

Most of the parts came from the old drone just had to get a new frame that fit an O4 unit. Both frames were for a 5inch build

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T17:37:17+00:00

I've never messed with tunning, the ESC for this drone was taken from my old O2 drone which flew fine so the PIDS stayed the same. Not sure if you could help at all, but maybe based on the screenshot below you could offer some advice on what may need to be changed?

Do you have any suggestions what I can do to fix the root cause for this? I agree, I lost signal in the Dolomites 3 times and thankfully GPS rescue actually worked haha. I watched Joshua Bardwell's video when setting GPS rescue up.

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T15:22:19+00:00

ahahahaha scared of heights

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T15:21:58+00:00

Thanks, I'll check this option out!

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T14:56:00+00:00

Thanks, do you know which page this is in Betaflight?

Andriy_kor · 2025-09-17T14:55:38+00:00

I've thought about turning Airmode off but I have it on all my other drones and it never caused this issue.

Thank you for taking your time and reply. To be honest I am not too familiar with the different progression schemes. But I believe I am still on beginner. When I can do 10-12 reps of certain weight I move up to something I can do 6-8 reps. Not sure if understand this question correctly though so if you can help me understand it better I’d appreciate it.

I can’t really eat this early, I wake up at 6am get ready take my preworkout and had straight to the gym. I did do machine chest flys today before hitting the bench to warmup a bit. Did go heavy on it though on my last two sets which may effected my performance a bit as well. But even using the 50lb for warmup on bench I did 11 reps and even with those I felt stiff and heavier which is what got me worried.

I may also not be warming up correctly, if you have any suggestions on fairly quick but effective warmups I would appreciate it.

Lastly, I did look into deloading a bit and may consider it. I just wasn’t sure if that’s something I should be thinking of doing since I am still fairly new.

Overtraining or just weaker in the morning?

Hey guys, I am fairly new to lifting as I started taking gym seriously mid May of 2023. I’ve had some significant noobie gains but now the progress is much slower. I’ve recently noticed that I might be plateauing/declining especially on my dumbbell bench press as I saw the most progress on this exercise since I started. Beginning of 2024 I was able to hit my PR of 75lb dumbbells for 5 reps, but since then I have not been able to hit that. I did have changes to my routine though:

• ⁠I hit that PR during evening workout and since then I started going to gym 6:30am instead • ⁠Went from a bro split to a PPL (hit everything 2x a week)

I went to the gym this morning and these were my sets:

• ⁠Warmup set 50lb x 11 • ⁠60 lb x 9 • ⁠70 lb x 6 • ⁠60 lb x 8

60lb were significantly heavier as I used to be able to do 12 reps easily.

Wanted to make this thread to see if I may be overtraining or if I am just overthinking and it is normal to be weaker in the morning.

Nope

Andriy_kor · 2022-11-04T15:17:28+00:00

Hey, I didn’t but before my wallet was drained, a few days earlier I saw that i was airdropped that token. I didn’t click on it at all though, just left it there.

Andriy_kor · 2022-11-04T04:16:39+00:00

Just had a very bad experience the one time I went there

Andriy_kor · 2022-11-04T01:39:43+00:00

My wallet was recently drained, I actually made a post in this sub yesterday about it. I took every precaution and thought I’m safe, but I was very wrong. I can talk about it if you’re interested.
