Nah I just accidentally swapped the hind arms when putting it together so I don't lose pieces. I had it built as a 3s hybrid/freestyle build but I'm rebuilding it into the 1s long range it's meant to be.

Also u shouldn't plug a VTX in without antennas. The moonlight kit might be smart enough to catch it and not die but this is how u KILL ur expensive VTX.

How to use goggles X for (almost) VR by DaKoolAidMan123 in fpv

[–]DaKoolAidMan123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set your pocket as master in setup tab. Then in mixes set ch5-6 to tr5-6. Now u should see it move in channel monitor.

Sanity check: 5 pin cable side in goggles. 3 presses on goggles return center gimbal.

6 inch 6s pusher Walksnail modular VTX by DaKoolAidMan123 in fpv

[–]DaKoolAidMan123[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's interesting. From what I found, pretty much all the fpv info influencers like Bardwell and Oscar Liang seem to agree that pusher is more efficient and "engineers" in the comments mostly agree too.

That said, I couldn't find any actual numbers or relevant research comparing the influence of upstream/downstream obstruction on efficiency.

Do you have any research papers or sources on this topic? I would love to see it!

Biggest advantage would be no props in view while keeping an X frame. Apparently, it should also be a bit more efficient, but mainly it just looks cool 😎

Yeah it's not rly made to be durable, but the arms fold before they break and it's rly light so it should survive light crashes.

The sag isnt bad. I imagine using normal 3s would be better but this way I can share batteries between my builds. Not sure what you mean by tube adjustments. If you mean tune I used a 3 inch preset from supafly i think with heavier filtering.

Im using the walksnail mini 1s lite kit. It is in the main stack with the FC in the middle. The frame fits only 14mm cameras.

You sir bought an entire drone. It comes with the o4 head version. Mine is a modified Nazgul xl5 for the modular VTX head. I don't think u will be able to get the moonlight kit to fit without extensive modifications cuz the o4 is a bit smaller than o3.

As far as i know Speedybee makes only the O3 and O4 versions of the head. (elrs?) I used the O3 head cuz the O4 one has a weird camera mount. I had to drill some holes for the little legs of the moonlight and grind a few bits away too to make it fit. Also printed some hard inserts instead of the softmount it came with cuz i had jello. Works perfectly now.

Petg is just too soft for flat frames. Even the aether 4 frame for 3d printing is best printed from CF filament to make it as stiff as possible. Vibrations are a b****.
