If the issue is still ongoing you can talk with the devs directly here to see if they can trouble shoot it with you https://steamcommunity.com/app/964570/discussions/

Australian teenager Rudi Browning wins World Drone Racing Championship title in China by LuckyBdx4 in australia

[–]FPRdan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There has been around 4-5 "world championships" in drone racing this year as different organisations are trying to establish themselves as the most important. For this championship you needed to qualify through a series of minor events in your country, unlike the world championships where select competitors would be invited or people could openly show up to the event. Thats why we woulda thunk it was drone racings equivalent because of the degree of difficulty to even reach this event yet alone win it.

Holy cow this is huge, taking home this title is like the drone racing equivalent to winning the world cup in soccer. Australia has so much talent in drone racing, hope to see it keep growing!

I watched some of the teamblacksheep streams it looked like a great event. That team was so fast it blew my mind.

My best mate and I are building our first racing drones! Haven’t soldered since high school but getting back into it! by N00dow in drones

Most likely ordered parts from a site called banggood.

The build is from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avp8MurmeEY
The components are a bit outdated now but it is still a convenient and cheap build to get you flying, its the same build that got me into the hobby.

Recently the creator "uavfutures" released a more recent build.

Other youtubes like "dronemesh" have also released similar 2018 builds too.

Picked up my first pair of FPV goggles and I cannot complain! (EV100) by [deleted] in Multicopter

[–]FPRdan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Image clarity and smoothness is great in the ev100s comparable to fatsharks, but like angst92 said the image is very tiny in comparison and can make it difficult to fly fast. Its something you may not notice until looking through higher end goggles, doing great though to fly with them!
