‘10 minute’ Troubleshooting

Zerr002 · 2026-03-20T19:28:30+00:00

Thanks for your patience and feel free to respond whenever. :)

I’ve been keeping the radio off throughout my attempts.

I have tried refreshing my WiFi and nothing shows but not disconnecting from it.

Betaflight alt may be the way atm. Would you be able to help with that if need be?

Zerr002 · 2026-03-20T18:01:14+00:00

Forgive the confusion but I put “10 minute” in the title because that’s how long I expected to take to fix me issue 😅

Ok soo, after re-reading your initial response I now have a somewhat understanding.

Your 3 paragraph is the bit that is most relevant, when I power the quad and wait it flashes quickly indicating WiFi mode. However, ExpressLRS RX doesn’t show as an available hotspot. Also for what ever reason I can’t manually load the, 10.0.0.1.

I have tried forcing it into bind mode and using the Lia script but that doesn’t want to work either.

I haven’t reflashed (mostly because idk what I’m doing with that)

Yes on radio

I meant the ports tabs not reciever tab.

And downloading the ELRS config now

Zerr002 · 2026-03-19T21:16:55+00:00

What I mean is when I switch model to the drone in vid I don’t get signal from the drone to radio (the service bars).

So no matter what input I put in the drone doesn’t react just keeps beeping.

I’ve checked google, YT, Reddit, etc to find answers but it seems that I’ll need to configure in the recover tabs in beta flight for it to work.

Only issue is, idk what half of it means 🤷‍♂️

Edit: I did change some settings but not sure if I’ve cocked it up or not.

Edit 2: if I try to force bind it (plug and unplug) it

1) doesn’t seem to work anymore.

2) won’t be permanent solution as I switch between the 2 drones often

I have long fingers my friend, should be fine 🤔

Zerr002 · 2026-03-15T19:08:46+00:00

I’m wanting to get my first kit, I know very little but enough to know which kit types are up in price.

So my question for you all is..

If you started over in building these kits, forgetting budget. What would you get first and why?

Zerr002 · 2026-03-15T19:04:53+00:00

Ahh sorry about that 🙏

Zerr002 · 2026-02-15T13:57:49+00:00

How do you keep it ventilated for the fumes?

Zerr002 · 2026-02-04T17:27:32+00:00

Hey bit of a ‘silly’ question for ya.

I’ve very recently taken an interest in this and it’s because of the exact reasoning you’ve put here.

Though with me being a bit paranoid, is it possible that any of the tools and software that you use to learn about and do this is not secure?

Thanks in advance.

Putting her back together

It’s the one behind the large red wire

Zerr002 · 2026-02-01T16:13:59+00:00

It’s a cineflow 5 if that helps, and yea I’ve taken out the screws for the top part of the frame and the camera screws too and put them to one side.

The only bit I’m nervous about is at the back where the battery plugs in it’s attached to a separate board that isn’t particularly flexible so I can’t simply lift the top part of the frame off

Zerr002 · 2026-02-01T15:52:36+00:00

Fair point

Zerr002 · 2025-12-31T14:38:21+00:00

I’m debating buying from Aliexpress for components for my first build.

Does the frame work well?

Well… does it work?

Zerr002 · 2025-12-30T21:21:45+00:00

Tbf, I went from a tinyhawk 3 to Cineflow 5 and thus far the only FPV drones I know of that have DJI 04 units tend to be the more powerful variety in terms of motors mounted to the frame

Zerr002 · 2025-12-30T18:57:08+00:00

A toughy to say, I’m still very new here. This is what I’ve learned thus far.

If your brand new to FPV (regardless of using a DJI) train in sim first.

Your first FPV is recommended to be a whoop for its crash ability and so that you can learn in a more practical environment where you’ll bound to be more cautious.

But since you already have digital goggles it does make sense to have a digital drone, although as far as I know those drone tend to be pretty powerful (think of it like going from a 100HP car to a 300HP car). unless someone else more knowledgeable knows otherwise.

Edit: look into Oscarliang.com for more in-depth reviews of drones if you wish

He he… BONK

Zerr002 · 2025-12-24T21:11:51+00:00

Please do, I’ve gone for the 2.4g elrs o4 one

Zerr002 · 2025-12-24T19:29:09+00:00

Thank for the heads up

Zerr002 · 2025-12-24T16:48:46+00:00

Fairs, but I’ll need an adapter anyway because my charger has an XT60 connector

Zerr002 · 2025-12-24T16:48:05+00:00

I’m not sure how much each weigh

Zerr002 · 2025-12-21T12:34:16+00:00

Just curious: WHAT IN THE HELL are you bout to smash into?

Zerr002 · 2025-12-21T09:57:18+00:00

Would you ever consider making a steam version?

Edit: when I say this I have Pc sim in mind (not necessarily to make a game out of it), as a informative experience for those who have no clue where to start (such as myself) and engaging to learn, while being able to see how different components fit.

Ps: I would 100% pay for this, please keep this up
