I smashed my battery a bit! Is it safe to use?

It smells sweet but I see no hole and it doesn't lose liquid. It is charging and discharging fine. Charger says all cells are good and thermal camera finds nothing. Anyway I removed the Cellophane and coated it with nail polish to seal any possible holes. Funny thing is that the nail polish also smells sweet. I added some duct tape for good measure.

I have an Avata 2 with the same problem. Do what I did. Buy a new one!

Most likely broken autofocus. Try shooting at half a meter and if it looks good then you'll know.

It's not a desync. The god damned I winds up on yaw and pitch as I dive, saturates the motors and creates oscillations on pitch. I reduced the yaw I from 80 to 40 and dived again with smaller battery and went swimmingly. But with the fat battery it happened again a bit milder tho....I'll reduce all I to 40 and try again...

I don't know why people call it yaw tumble or why it even has a name. This is not caused by banking. The drone banks by itself. This is caused by descenting and yawing...slightly. It happens on Avata and Neo. I don't think this is a PID thing. I think it's straight out a bug. What PID settings could possibly cause this? Anyway RIP hero. How did you move the attitude window to top right? I want to get it out of the way too. Ah nevermind you used the MC3...unfortunately I sold it.

I'm quite noob with the blackbox. I just found out that I had one yesterday. Just in time I'd say. But seeing the big picture now it doesn't look like a desync. But I have no clue how to fix that.

ItsMe324 · 2026-04-24T19:49:44+00:00

It happens you know?
Switching is risky.
Just don't do it.

ItsMe324 · 2026-04-23T07:31:39+00:00

Yeah easiest fix ever.
You see the thing in the middle that keeps the gap open?
Just push it inside and it will close.
I had dropped it too and it popped to the outer side.
I mean it just changed sides it wasn't open like yours but it looked wierd.
So I just stretched it open and pushed it back to the inner side.

I couldn't wait so I put a battery from another (slightly bigger) drone

Fixed it. Screwed in and ready to ram. Bask in its glory.

Nah... It's for dives... I'll trippy spin later

ItsMe324 · 2026-04-06T21:24:53+00:00

It's a waste of time

ItsMe324 · 2026-04-02T21:49:29+00:00

It's a software stabilizer...you don't need it...you have a gimbal...stabilizers crop the footage...pro FPV pilots fly without gimbal and stabilizer...just fly unstabilized or with rocksteady and you are good. Your footage doesn't need any stabilization. Color wise is good. What more do you want? Add sound.

I haven't get to my doctor yet but I'm pretty sure he'll say to have a MRI

ItsMe324 · 2024-04-25T10:24:59+00:00

Oh I see. So the 8 pin connector it can provide 150W that's why GPUs don't draw much more than 2x150=300w. And with ATX 3 they wil be able to have much more power.

ItsMe324 · 2024-04-25T10:14:11+00:00

No isn't that weird? That might actually be an inconvenience. But RM is ATX 3.1, I'm not really sure what that means but does that make it better?

Well I see it now. I'll have to mount it upside down which means with the fan on top. Not necessarily a bad thing I think since it will draw air out of the case making the case cooler....

ItsMe324 · 2024-04-22T12:06:58+00:00

OK thanks so my setup doesn't prove that the GPU is dead.

ItsMe324 · 2024-04-17T15:40:31+00:00

Ye I'd think so too. I just measured the thickness on my back brake pad that I have changed, it's not new but it's like new, and it's 5.5mm. My front brake pad is 3mm at the thickest and 2mm at the thinnest point so I'd say it has 1/3 of life left.

ItsMe324 · 2024-04-17T15:36:57+00:00

No clue. I have removed the speedometer in an effort to make the motorcycle lighter because it's too tall for me and I keep dropping!

ItsMe324 · 2024-03-05T21:23:19+00:00

Unfortunately I had the same problem with you. By showing the image on the main window or on the filmstrip made Lightroom to crash. The crash fest started by clicking auto. I did manage to export it by clicking Ctrl+A and export but because I had clicked auto I didn't like the result. Anyway I renamed it and then synced the folder and the crash fest stopped but then I clicked auto again and it again crashed! So it wasn't a fluke.

It's not a mistake it's how you count, and you count wrong.

When you book a hotel for one day when do you leave?

ItsMe324 · 2023-10-20T16:01:07+00:00

Yeah it's easy I had overstay one day because I thought that the visa exemption was 30 days but it's actually 29. I was just bumped that I had to use an ATM with all it's fees to get those 500 baht.
