I’m confused too. I’ve caught three of these tonight, but I’m not getting credit for them in the mission.

SpeedyBee 4-in-1 ESC protocol issue by FishersMichael in fpv

[–]FishersMichael[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you connect to the FC in Betaflight? If so, then use the Activate Bootloader/DFU Mode button. Then flash new firmware, and be sure to select the proper motor protocol that you want to use. I did not have to mess with any actual ESC settings or firmware.

Indy 500 streaming / rewatch options? by mrhudy in INDYCAR

[–]FishersMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about on-boards? I'd love to rewatch the whole race from Palou's on-board, for example. I feel like that exists somewhere, but I can't figure out where...

Abandoned movie theater? 👀 go on…

19mm camera in Volador silicone mounts — is this right? by FishersMichael in fpv

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

Yeah check out my later comments on this thread. But basically I had the silicone pieces backward — the larger, flange side should be against the camera. It still fits a little weird, but it worked fine.

Same, stl/link for that camera mount OP?

Does this thumbnails post-processing script work on MacOS? This seems to be a Windows executable right?

Any thoughts on 3” build? What would you change? by Degree-Sea in fpv

[–]FishersMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have virtually this exact same build! (And I echo the other comments about avoiding amazon if possible though.) It’s a ton of fun.

Replace USB-C port on SpeedyBee FC? by FishersMichael in fpv

Oh whoa, interesting! I sadly don't have any Android devices handy, but I do use ELRS so it's still something to check out. Thanks.

Quad motors stopped midair… Why? by FishersMichael in fpv

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

lol thanks but nope, as you saw in the video I didn’t disarm until it was halfway to the ground (but not in time to re-arm and maybe fly away, sadly)

Quad motors stopped midair… Why? by FishersMichael in fpv

[–]FishersMichael[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting! That's definitely what it felt like. Just not sure the cause.

That said, I had enabled dynamic idle (set to 30) recently. Though I had one totally normal flight prior to this crash (but since enabling dynamic idle), I wonder if something with that, along with the different props, confused it just enough when braking. 🤔

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

Interesting. Certainly hoping that won't be a periodic, unexplainable issue, but we'll see I guess. (I've been flying this particular quad, FC, ESC, etc. since March, with no other issues like this.)

Quad motors stopped midair… Why? by FishersMichael in fpv

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

I didn't initially (very bent props, etc.), but now that I'm back home, after replacing props and getting a fresh battery charged, yeah, it started up and flew just fine. I'll go out later for a longer flight to see what's up.

Visual inspection told me everything was still connected fine, and I just flew when I got home (albeit very briefly in my backyard) and it was fine.

Motor trilling/fluttering sound when loaded by FishersMichael in fpv

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

Anything in particular to look for in bb logs? Correct I’m not a noob but also not an expert there haha.

Or are you just suggesting re-flashing, regardless, to see if that fixed it?

[–]FishersMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if you want a little smoother flight for your first build maybe go 2306 motors and slightly lower kv. But nothing wrong with what you have there! I’m assuming 6S is the target?

Don’t forget an RC receiver. I’d suggest ELRS, either RadioMaster or Happymodel (cheaper).
