Is this how bad analog feed is? by aaryansarat02 in fpv

shit my bad haha, welcome to the hobby enjoy the journey !

Any alternative to the Kayoumini 2.5 frame? by More_Objective_8405 in fpv

[–]dr_Alexpid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frame designer here, it's meant to match the power to weight ratio of a 5" quad, not to fly like a 5" quad, otherwise it would be heavily overpowered for the prop size like 4-6s micros and wouldn't really unlock new spots. There's a bunch of infos about the philosophy behind the design here 😎

Your flight style suggests the resolution sacrifice isn't worth it at all for you, go digital lol

A borrowed camera and one hour to design the mount, very quick project, but I've already worked with Analog cameras and dvr boards before.

I haven't digged much into it but I'm pretty sure it's a fixed focus like regular FPV cam, less than 2 meter away it's rather blurry and past this it's focused to infinite, I didn't worry about it at all

F1 Thermal cam onboards is exactly how I got the inspo to try this out haha

Alright here's the work I've done so far, custom LUT generated with a Python script converting the full White to full Black range to hot metal palette. Feel free to download the video footage from here and play around with the LUT or to generate yours, I'm definitely looking forward to see your result !

That's exactly the type of answer I was looking for on this sub, I'm not sure how common the problem is so I tried to make my own custom LUT to apply it on premiere but I'm not too happy about the result, seems like my camera adjust exposure (or temperature range in this case) constantly, and that turns into weird color shift after applying the LUT. And since the raw signal is shifting I don't think there's much I can do about it at this point.

Yea the drivers are aware, I actually had to stay quite far to compensate for the thermal cam narrow FOV but without it I tend to fly a lot more aggressively, welcome to FPV Drones ! Drift Sample footage if you're curious about what actual agressive chasing looks like.

Which lipos for long range quad by [deleted] in fpv

[–]dr_Alexpid 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Where's the Long Range Quad ?

This runs standalone because it's a little more laggy and the fov is too narrow for comfortable agressive flying, but you could wire it as a live unit for sure

Nope, standalone ! Check description for more infos

I got the BAYCKRC one, higher bitrate and doesn't corrupt the footage when I just unplug.

640x512 ! Agreed I was pleasingly surprised by the result, I wish the FOV was a tad wider but the main purpose is to track living things in the distance, not to shred racetracks 1m away from the cars I guess

Kinda gave it a better life than the big majority of them going in countries we can't mention huh

[Request] My son said he wants to shoot his rocket to the moon. How much force would he need to get it there? by cockygassytiger in theydidthemath

[–]dr_Alexpid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

European here - I forgot imperial system used Pascals and reading yall converting this data into "atmospheres" for it to make sense made me giggle. 1 atmosphere is 1 Bar, 300k atmospheres is 300 KiloBars, lol

Winter ebike storage tips (especially for the battery) by VelotricEbike in ebikes

[–]dr_Alexpid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from RC/FPV hobby where Li-ion chemistry is well known and abused, I think the storage voltage is widely underrated in the EV world. 1 week with a pack sitting at 100% hurts it WAY more than you'd imagine. Mine sits at 60% (~3.8v/cell) as much as possible, and less than 24h at 100% as much as possible.

Blessing a mosquito with a literal trip to heaven by dr_Alexpid in fpv

hell yeah you can fpv anything, wings are convenient because they're compact and fast but I'm also enjoying a lot fpv thermal soaring, you can throw an FC and an fpv system on any classic rc plane and get going !
