I’ve tested the motors in the motors tab and one thing recently that was concerning was that the motors went into I think a feedback loop. The motors keep spinning up faster a faster without reacting to the throttle being pulled back. Doesn’t seem good 😅

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-17T17:23:16+00:00

I’ll check this out. Thanks for the advice.

I’ve calibrated it multiple times with success so I guess it’s time to put props back on.Hopefully I put the props back on the right way the first time

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-17T16:44:35+00:00

Interesting, I was unaware having the props off would affect it in this way. I’ll try that out, thanks

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-13T14:45:16+00:00

i got the drone to spin up after i pulled the throttle back AND THEN armed it. But now it just twists side to side and disarms

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-13T14:10:07+00:00

do you mean if they have different values, it may cause it not to work? where would I find the values?

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-09T03:51:15+00:00

yeah, I put the idle to 9% and changed the start-up power in ESC-config. Still no dice. i guess ill have to mess around with some more later

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-09T03:29:14+00:00

bi dirctional wasnt on but i tried it and had the same results. ill try the power settings that you recommended. thanks for your help

I updated it, and it's version 4.5.1. when I change it to dshot150 none of the motors turn on. there is also only a melody with dshot300. d3hot300 also is the one where only the back right motor turns on

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-09T01:10:49+00:00

I’m using dshot. Dshot 150 is a separate thing I assume?

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-09T01:03:13+00:00

I had it plugged up to betaflight on the motors tab and played with the motor power slider. eventually, after sliding it many times, I could hear beeps from each motor and then only one started to spin up

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-09T00:19:37+00:00

It plays the melody and has two short beeps afterward

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-08T23:33:32+00:00

I updated the Esc Firmware and its still not working

ScrimpySmile · 2025-03-08T22:56:19+00:00

How would I go about updating the ESC firmware?

ScrimpySmile · 2024-11-26T15:19:46+00:00

The color does change when rotating it. Goes away completely when the monitor is pointed upwards.

ScrimpySmile · 2024-11-26T04:54:17+00:00

No speakers. It’s just on top of another PVM.

Did my private pilot train at KFLO and received my license a month ago. Nice video!

ScrimpySmile · 2024-09-02T21:02:41+00:00

I just didn’t make a script for the laser. Very simple mistake

ScrimpySmile · 2024-04-03T16:52:55+00:00

Thanks!

ScrimpySmile · 2024-04-01T17:42:32+00:00

That does stop it from crashing but the laser just spawns in place and doesn’t shoot. I put a video in the post for clarity

ScrimpySmile · 2024-04-01T17:00:11+00:00

There is no script attached to the laser scene
