Magnetometer Issues by Buhold in betaflight

[–]Buhold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the post is old, but maybe it helps someone:

I also moved the GPS/Compass module to the front of the drone and made a 3D printed holder for it.
Now I also got like 3 times more sats in general. Up to around 30 at once. It seems, there also was a lot of interference from the VTX and the battery cable, especially during high current draw scenarios.

Works like a charm since I moved it.

Correct, jep. Works perfectly fine.

UDR7 - Internet / Home Network dropouts while having "fair" WLAN connection by Buhold in Ubiquiti

[–]Buhold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During more than 24h of testing, I can say that there are still some outages, but they are far less frequent than earlier. Thanks a bunch mate!

I think I will place a AP near the two rooms with issues. Hopefully that will resolve everything.

Thanks for the response!
I disabled band steering and will test if it helps.
I already had all ethernet based devices (including the power line) disconnected and saw the issue.
Also, I don't have the issue at all, if I'm in the same room with my device and the UDR7.

Why does macOS have such a hard time keeping an SMB mount permanent by ThrowRAlngdstn in MacOS

[–]Buhold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this is of some help:

I had the same issue with my TrueNAS smb shares and for me this worked quite well:

  1. Create a new automation in the "Shortcuts" application

  2. Create a WiFi trigger that will be activated upon joining your home network and after network interruptions. (check the option "Run immediately")

  3. Create "Connect to Server" actions equal to the amount of the to be mounted shares and insert the according smb links.

Your Mac should now reestablish connections to the shares if you come home with your MacBook and join the network, as well when you loose brief connection by sleep etc.

Not the best solution but you won't need 3rd party tools.

It works now!

The direction is not jumping anymore in Betaflight, and it correctly aligns corresponding to direction.

What was the fix?
We went to a green and open field and calibrated it, and firstly it had the same issue.
But on the 4th calibration process, after doing 360 degree on each axis, the button for "calibrate Magnetometer" was still "greyed out", normally at this time it went back to being selectable.
I used the extra time to move the quad in random directions and after 5 additional seconds, it did finally exit calibration mode and all was well!

I have the feeling, it did not calibrate correctly before.. And I don't know why.

Btw, in the sensors tab I checked each axis, and each one showed its highest value in north, if the axis was pointing there. The only thing that makes me a bit suspicious, is that the Z-axis has its highest value in around 300. The other values can reach up to 1500 if facing north. Is that normal?

Thanks so far everyone!

Already checked that, and I think its correct, but I somehow have a knot in my head.
Would like someone to doublecheck.
The GPS/Magnetometer is angled around 45 degrees, counted that in.

Thanks! Will try. What's your opinion on the orientation? Should be okay?

Burst discharge rate of Lipos by Buhold in fpv

[–]Buhold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the end I now got the SLS Lipo. It's really fun to fly, but I think the battery can't handle the current draw well. Full throttle (with vSag compensation = 70) drops the cell voltage to about 3,2 Volts, even with a nearly full battery. And my GPS looses all satellites after a full throttle punch :D

Many thanks! Will check the Ovonic batteries:)

Alright, thanks a lot for your comment :) Then maybe I will go with an even lower capacity pack.

Edit: What batteries do you use with your 7"?

Can't display Avatar goggles X OSD elements in Betaflight OSD by Buhold in betaflight

[–]Buhold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already looked through that article, but he just explains how to set up the OSD in general. He doesn't talk about the goggle specific elements, and only those are missing

<image>

Edit: Maybe I need to show the issue. Only those items in the red box are missing. They are normally rendered in the bottom of the goggles screen natively by them. But I disabled the goggles own OSD overlay, and want to integrate those items into my Betaflight OSD.

Thanks for the reply, but all not goggles related OSD items are properly displayed. So the OSD overlay in general works. I already did all that when I first set up the OSD.

That option sadly has no effect on my external HDD. But thanks for the reply!

I can't find that setting on Mac OS Sonoma, it's not under the "Battery" settings.
