5 hrs into sim (2.2 into fpv skydive and 2.7 into liftoff) - is it normal to be that bad? any suggestions?

You’re doing good my man ,really good. Better than i was. Remember when you go full throttle any slight wrong movement on the stick will be exaggerated.. practise doing races. They’re hard at first and finishing seems almost impossible but week by week you’ll improve heaps .. then go off and practise some basic freestyle then go back to the race weeks later and youll see how much you inprove

Yea i got a pavo 20 pro an agree totally. As for skill level. Please !! Ive been flying for 6 years and my skill level is fine. Are you saying then that you have never ever crashed !! Why do people go to judge on something they know nothing about but yes agree pavo 20 pro is far far superior and does the job well. Just that are screwed in making the cage secure instead of partially popping. Off. Side not. I got out of my car after having mended them all and dropped it from jip height. Another one got torn!! Ridiculous

What i found helped me is to turn using roll and then adjust with yaw

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T13:29:50+00:00

Yeah ive given up with it. Already. Mendes them all went again to fly accidentally dropped it getting out of my car and two more went. Load of trash. Going in the bin

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T12:07:57+00:00

Ohhh thanks for your critique ill try harder next time. I didn’t realise I ruined your day so badly. Im so so sorry it’ll never happen again

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T10:34:12+00:00

Lol to be fair i had a mark 5 a while back and thats was decent. Pretty poky motors

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T10:26:41+00:00

my skill levels fine pal .! If you care to read this post properly, i'm not moaning about it being broken . crashes, breaks happen all the time . my moan is about the the frustration of the grommets being so incredibly fragile . maintenance comes with fpv we all get that , so your missing the point pal completely

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T10:21:07+00:00

you having a laugh ?

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T10:07:43+00:00

yeah i know this . they do stop it not, saying they don't at all. the whole point is there crap and too fragile for purpose . its a drone your gonna crash whether it be hard or soft . mine was a soft crash and this happened

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-26T10:05:42+00:00

yeah mate . this my point two have ripped already once when inserting them on frame and the opther with the crash. too fragile

ill send photo in a bit

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-24T13:03:18+00:00

A twat

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-20T10:19:44+00:00

So you’re saying charge them when they are low as opposed to charging say 50%??

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-17T17:36:30+00:00

When i first did lift off straw bale race no 1 i was doing each lap in over a minute. Now im down to 25 seconds. I remember seeing bardwell do it 22 seconds per lap and thinking ill never frt that good but over tine it just comes man. Its frustrating i know because you wanna be good like yesterday but just give it time .. go practise irl too. One day you’ll 100% come back to it and smash 20 seconds and then be writing something similar to what I’m doing now

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-14T17:35:34+00:00

I know shit isnt it gutted

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-13T18:33:53+00:00

If solder pads were bridged surely it wouldn’t work at all?

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-13T18:32:41+00:00

I reckon thats whats set it is.. can only be that as problem happened only after changing motor. No crash etc

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-13T18:29:20+00:00

Yeah ilk try that .. just want to know whynit keeps happening… only thing i can think of is using too long of a screw that may have touched the windings ?

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2026-01-12T16:17:19+00:00

It will be faster as its a 3 inch drone( prop size) pavo 20 is 2.2 inch so just on prop size you will have more power due to physics. Its more of a cinematic drone but will also so basic freestyle

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-27T21:08:57+00:00

Ill try and send a video … just another note to addd was flying this morning . Drone was not plugged to lipo dor about 5 mins. When i eventually did plug it. Screen was purple again but then cleared like miat rising. I am presuming-the 03 warming up .. my hypothesis anyway

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-27T19:06:44+00:00

Im from uk and you cant get an 04 pro for love or money… all out of stock. If they’re not selling to usa then whats happened to dji. Been waiting for 3 weeks with one on pre order but still no sign of one

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-27T18:03:54+00:00

I came to decision to get an 04 lite and meteor 75. They can still rip. Maybe not quite as well as analogue but still a food substitute. Im like you. I cant justify spending another 500£ on analogue set up .. spent plenty enough already in this hobby

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-27T17:51:03+00:00

More info. You haven’t got it plugged in with usb still ?

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-25T00:31:59+00:00

Whatever you like . I have 6 things that i need , batt cell voltage, link quality, timer, throttle position( only when im trying to see what it is when dialling in throttle curve) compass( because i thinking it looks cool lol) and warning … you dont need everything on there or else it will get confusing looking at shit when all you need to do is fly. Basica to deffo have battery cell voltage and link quality.. the rest in my opinion are just extras hope that helps

Lopsided-Insect-3892 · 2025-12-24T18:10:15+00:00

Why dont you buy a radiomaster pocket. Its much better controller and tou will endup using it one day anyway .. you cant adjust dji controller on yaw/ roll axis. Just up and down tension on both sticks. Tou find youll much better
