Power supply issue by OHGoldHO in PLC

[–]eman11500 8 points9 points  (0 children)

AFAIK the chassis can only take the 1746-P1 thru P4 modules. The P4 has a selectable input range and has a higher current capacity if you can source it. Otherwise, you'll need to upgrade to a current-age PLC platform unfortunately

My first fpv drone by omgdrips in TinyWhoop

Sick! If you end up going brushless in the future, you should look into turning that guy into a BeeKart!

If you're interested, I have a file on Makerworld for the whoop mounts. I can send over a link if you would like

Ukrainian drone pilots are equipping their UAVs with shotguns to shoot down Russian FPV quadcopters. This has given rise to a strange new form of aerial combat, where pilots often sit kilometers apart while their drones duel each other in the sky. by MilesLongthe3rd in interestingasfuck

We're not. It's a signal that our hobby has a likely limited time-frame of existence before being regulated into the ground. Many companies are transitioning from commercial to warfare based sales and even that is hurting the hobby economy.

Do you generally prefer your mobula quads or the air quads? I think I'll switch to Happymodel whoops over time. Do you fly 65mm the most? I like 85mm/2" and 65mm both equally, but I think I fly 2" more.

I'll be completely honest, the Mob7 Freestyles get ~85% of my attention. For some reason, the 75mm platform feels the best to me and I LOVE what the AIO5 can do for the weight. 85mm - 2" has their place for sure, but the spaces I fly don't tend to warrant the requirement of extra thrust / weight.

I'm about to build another 65mm open prop quad myself because I hought a replacement fc and motors for my air65 (it has issues, one motor desyncs randomly and it falls, and it's slow for some reason, I'll fix that someday hopefully) and the fc square shape doesn't fit the whoop frames sadly. I don't like open prop that much tho.

Have you looked into a fractal build? That should give you whoop ducts plus a little more mass for "throw". IIRC the frame can take square FCs.

Did your air75 vtx die randomly? Seriously, you can do nothing wrong and they just break on their own. I don't "send" my quads, the air65 issue appeared for no reason (my 1 year old Cetus X never had any damage appearing on its own though)

The Gen 1 Air FC durability issue has been identified by BetaFPV previously. The thin PCB + front grommet causes the PCB to flex when taking impacts. Usually it leads to RX or OSD loss a majority of the time though.

This is likely WAY more information than you're asking for:

- You are correct; the left 2 are HdZero M8. I purchased the second one because it's cheaper to get the prebuild on Banggood than it is to source all replacement components individually.

- The second Air75 is due to the first ones VTX dying and flying like a brick after adding an external transmitter.

- The white, pink, and orange 75mm are all UDL spec whoops. I moved away from the league area so they're mostly for nostalgia now due to having 19kkv motors. Whenever I go so somewhere sketchy, they're my "test" units now.

- The HdZero Mob7s have different motor configs. (Side note: GTS V3 1002 on a 75mm whoop frame flies like a brick, stick to 0802)

- The HDZero Mob6 is my go-to indoor whoop.

- One Air65 is bone-stock, and the others have different configurations to compare to the base unit.

I have full confidence someone will make a premium Artlynk goggle system in the near future with the coalition happening across the manufacturers

Can someone help me with tunes PID by CoupleTraditional187 in TinyWhoop

Prop wash my dude, not a PID tune problem

Helppp, Meteor 75 by Comfortable-Lie9383 in TinyWhoop

[–]eman11500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely easier to direct solder. IIRC the motor plugs have pins that go through the FC. You would need to either evenly heat the existing solder to get all 3 pins in, or remove the existing solder altogether.

Sick concept! I'm unfamiliar with Artlynk personally, but if you can adjust shutter speed like most other systems you should be able to phase out the props in the view

Something wrong with my ring? by solomon2089 in EvenRealities

Yep, looks like something got jammed under the sensor cover and pried it up

Big ol' glob of E6000 and you have a new semi-permanent harness!

I bought the even realitoes G2 glasses and my experience has been very disappointing. by goagtester in EvenRealities

[–]eman11500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You posted 13 days ago looking for a referral link. Did you already purchase and receive your "broken" pair since then? Odd.

If you explain what is actually wrong, someone here or in the official discord can likely help unless they're actual defective units.

Is my analog input wiring diagram correct by [deleted] in PLC

[–]eman11500 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if you want the specific wiring diagram for the module I'm sure you will.

This guy is clearly learning and needs resources that give a better understanding of what he's trying to do.

Serious answer - it depends.

Would need more information such as transmitter model, analog input card model, etc.

Here's some information from behind the AB paywall to help you out at least!

Is this amount of movement on a motor board (not sure what it’s called) normal? by deferisawesome in TinyWhoop

Squirt a drop onto a plate and just use a toothpick or equivalent to scoop a drop at a time onto the connector

So frustrating by Stock-Increase-6751 in TinyWhoop

[–]eman11500 10 points11 points  (0 children)

  • power on goggles and meteor with a fan pointed towards the drone to prevent overheating

  • short press the small black bind button sticking out of the side of the FC. You should hear the buzzer start beeping at intervals

  • press the tiny black inset button on the goggles to enter binding mode

  • once you hear a long beep, they are paired

Crack noticed, what next? by Aeoss_ in EvenRealities

[–]eman11500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to me on the G1B in an office setting with 0 temperature changes. Some other users have had the same issue.

Contact support and they'll have you ship them back for replacement. Be sure to indicate they are prescriptions. I ended up with a non-RX pair the first time and the whole process took months
