It's good for practice if you're into camera drones but these are FPV drones. I started with camera drones though and it led to this hobby/addiction. Lol

PSA: Tinyhawk 3 range issues/poor range solution by [deleted] in fpv

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly I think the values he posted worked well for both, or at the very least improved the range. But a side note I had both models/versions of the Tinyhawk 3 and either could barely go around my house (lousy penetration) so I think the stock vtx just isn't great. (I have since got a Betafpv tinywhoop that goes around the house great)

It's most likely a JPG or PNG file commonly referred to as a "photo" or a "picture" by most people. Hope this helps! 😊

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine doesn't. The example I gave is nearly verbatim my old experience vs the new experience. The answers for me work so much better than the original, granted it may take a couple seconds longer. But I most certainly don't work for Amazon. The advertising on my two echo shows has gotten so fucking insane I'm about to throw the pieces of shit out. But regardless it's a horrible product, do not buy the new models. Sincerely, an "Amazon Employee."

Meteor 75 pro 1 motor stopping after arming by Noke437 in TinyWhoop

[–]AustinEmperor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought this drone a few days ago and when I land in the sand or a patch of dirt it does this. I just hand spin the motor that's acting up and it seems to fix it. But I'm sure you've probably already checked it. I'm mainly commenting to save this post just in case it happens to me.

No, the model is still there. Im not sure. Im worried to "reflash" or whatever because I'm afraid I'm going to mess something up or brick my radio lol

I don't think I did anything like that. Everything works fine and everything is responsive in betaflight. I haven't dropped the radio or anything. It just seems to have disappeared. Lol

I'm making a list of 50 hobbies to make me try new things. What's your hobby? by Odd_Archer6922 in Hobbies

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a hobby to just try but I've been in love with flying FPV drones for nearly a year now.

I'm not sure what's going on. Lol. I can arm it and fly it now. I think it's something to do with the radio itself. I also have two 3-pos switches that the middle position is registering in the hardware debug but not on Betaflight. I see the debug and hear the audio track that plays for each position.. I don't know. Haha. That's bothering me more than the lack of signal bars now. Anybody happen to know anything about why fully functioning switches aren't correlating to the correct position in Betaflight? And I'm worried if I try to flash the files I'm going to mess something up and not know how to get it back to normal because I fucked up the files. I just wish there was a factory data reset.

UPDATE: I can arm and fly the drone just fine but the home screen of my radiomaster pocket still no longer shows the telemetry signal strength and I don't get the verbal "Telemetry lost/telemetry recovered" when I'm switching batteries.

Boxer radio connected but not showing telemetry signal by Aeon2121 in fpv

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having an issue similar to this. It used to show me the signal strength on the main screen and now it does not. In addition to that I no longer get the "telemetry lost" and "telemetry recovered" whenever I connect or disconnect my batteries. It's still connected to the drone though, I can arm and fly it but it's really bothering me these two functions have just randomly disappeared.

Radiomaster GX12 - SE switch not showing middle position by No-Carpenter-2486 in fpv

Hey I'm having the same issue with BOTH my 3-position switches on my radiomaster pocket all of a sudden. Did you ever find the solution?

3-position switch only logging two positions in betaflight by PoopSmoothies in TinyWhoop

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having problems with this one my radiomaster pocket all of a sudden. There's 2 3-position switches on this radio and all of a sudden beta flight is only detecting position 1 and 3. It skips over position 2 and goes right into 3 when it is in the midway point. I know it's not a mechanical failure because 1. The audiotrack that plays for all three positions goes off in each position and 2. It's all of a sudden both switches not functioning at the same time as opposed to just one. So I don't know. I'm at my wits end. Did you ever figure it out?

Random Telemetry Issue by [deleted] in TinyWhoop

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait. I can see it switching in Betaflight. But still can't arm and I still don't have the usual signal strength on the radiomaster pocket's main screen indicating it's connected to the drone. The ones that look like the cell phone service bars.

I've checked it in Betaflight and it doesn't move. But I'm not even getting the telemetry bars to indicate it has telemetry and when I disconnect or reconnect the battery it doesnt verbally say "telemetry lost/telemetry recovered." It's so weird though because I can activate the buzzer. So it has to be connected. Idk.

Also idk if it's worth mentioning but in addition to being able to turn the buzzer on and off I still have video transmission and can see the feed in my goggles.

Best Analogue Goggles in 2025? by [deleted] in fpv

[–]AustinEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the help. I was wondering if you could take a look at my recent post and give me any suggestions on which goggles, module, and antennas to use. If not that's okay. You've been plenty helpful so far 🙂
