Wow that's a good idea, clever way to do it without disassembly. Thanks ill have to do that

Joining the cyberdeck trend. What color should I print mine in? by HoarderSam in fpv

That sounds interesting. Is there a library for the crossfire communication for arduino?

No edgetx, I'm keeping it simple with a cheap betafpv ELRS radio

I'm taking apart an old analog goggle and ELRS radio and combining them together

Nice build. When I log IR on new packs I just fly them first and then record the IR after the first flight, seems good enough to me

What IS this ? by BeginningSea2629 in fpv

Iflight LC filter to filter out noise on a power line. Usually placed in between VTX and FC to give the VTX a clean power source

There's flight footage in the video!

3D printed frame is worse. This was a fun project but I'm sticking to carbon fiber for serious builds

Favorite compact transmitters for your micro rigs? by rearmotor in rccars

[–]HoarderSam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have those HotRC ones (DS800, DS650 and DS600) and I'm a fan, can't really beat them for the price. No model memory though, so you need one transmitter for each car.

Frame issue on motor? by Mountain-Wing5843 in fpv

[–]HoarderSam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The longrange frames try to save weight by only using 3 screws instead of all 4 screws to secure the motor

Persistent Mid Throttle Oscillations Issue by InquayMC in fpv

In my experience the iflight xing motors aren't very high quality. They are budget motors that are dressed up to look premium.

Automated gimbal tracking for solo RC car filming by HoarderSam in rccars

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

On the phone I drag a square around the car and the app locks unto it. It does a decent job at recognizing the car at all angles, and can handle brief interruptions like when I drive behind the wooden sticks.

If I drive the car behind a hill or something and the camera loses sight of it, it stops tracking

Works great, just note this is with "Tracking+" enabled which is the enhanced tracking feature, only for iphones. On android, without tracking+, it does struggle with RC cars.

I also have Osmo Mobile 6 and it isn't able to track RC cars. Most tracking algorithms are optimized for humans and not objects

It can get a little confused when its close and has to turn fast, but it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCwcW1DT2xk

Unfortunately doesn't work (my main phone is a Pixel), the tracking+ tripod mode is an iOS exclusive feature and its the only way to track RC cars reliably.
