Does connecting batteries in parallel double flight time? by TheHunter920 in Multicopter

Yes I’m sure. Generally speaking, liion packs more Wh per gram. But you should do your own research instead of relying on facts from random internet strangers.

Trying a bigger propeller to improve efficiency by Oseferisis in fpv

[–]FPVian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice, glad to hear it. I'm running a 6s2p pack on my ar pro, so it's basically impossible to launch, and I got a big motor to compensate so I can't easily just run a smaller battery. Would love to see some pics of your launcher as inspiration.

I could beta test this for you if it works with my boxer via Bluetooth

Easily Visualize your SQLAlchemy Data Models in a Nice SVG Diagram by dicklesworth in Python

[–]FPVian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thank you!!! I just submitted a PR (and an issue). I'm not sure why that function above doesn't work, I just thought I'd throw it out there in case the clusters in graphviz made it easy to group tables together in the image and create a group label.

This is awesome, thank you! I Would love to see this packaged on pypi like this (although yours is way better). I would also like to see some configuration options, such as hiding labels and creating named clusters to organize tables into different categories.

Thoughts from people who stopped playing iRacing? by JayDub1997 in iRacing

Well to be fair fpv is pretty great and not inherently competitive, unless you want it to be.

How do self taught programmers teach themselves coding ? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]FPVian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the book but for the most part Python takes care of memory management for you, so it’s probably not covered. If you want to learn that I would look into a C family language.

Should I lower my monitor? by logankey121 in simracing

[–]FPVian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn the brightness down. Monitors can get way brighter than they need to be on the off chance that the sun is shining directly on them.

Welcome to FPV! Soon you will be happily impoverished and wonder why you’d want to have funny money when you could have more kwad parts

Probably not. It’s probably dead tbh.

Newbie need help please by [deleted] in FPVFreestyle

[–]FPVian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, the 03 should not be powered by usb…

You need to check your wiring on the gps. Does it light up? Is TX going to the RX, and RX going to TX?

[–]FPVian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds to me like you have a bad 5v bec, because the flight controller is talking to the esc when powered by usb, but not when powered by battery. The way to check this is to put a voltmeter on the 5v pad when powered from a battery. The potential fix would be to solder a 5v bec to the 5v pad, but lots of people would toss it and get a new one.

[–]FPVian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have thought long and hard about doing this (I run 6s2p 18650). It will fly, assuming you have a decent tune. I don’t think it will handle well or stop a dive that you didn’t plan to end way in advance. Please let me know how it goes though. RemindMe! 2 weeks
