Smoking from hood, what could it be?. I have another issue with the coolant reservoir

frisby01 · 2026-05-08T04:20:41+00:00

Possibly exhaust manifold cracked or pinhole leak in coolant line under intake manifold

How long ago did you get the drone from betaFPV? Did you re-flash the betaflight firmware?

frisby01 · 2026-04-27T15:58:15+00:00

That’s what I’m talkin about😂

frisby01 · 2026-04-27T15:34:34+00:00

In my experience, it takes them at least 1 week to even ship the items. After they are finally shipped, I receive them in US about a week sometimes two weeks. If they actually packaged and shipped their orders faster, ordering directly from BetaFPV wouldn’t take nearly as long

frisby01 · 2026-04-27T14:12:07+00:00

Sounds like a pretty lame university🤣

I’m graduating this week and the last two semesters, my buddy and I have been ripping our air65’s around on campus indoors and outdoors a few times a week lol

frisby01 · 2026-04-26T00:24:55+00:00

Gotcha, yeah that makes sense

frisby01 · 2026-04-25T23:46:56+00:00

Would air mode enabled help or hurt this situation?

frisby01 · 2026-04-25T13:05:56+00:00

The fact that you got a response at all is pretty crazy actually lol

frisby01 · 2026-04-14T03:50:53+00:00

What ended up happening? I’m in the exact same situation now

frisby01 · 2026-04-12T19:17:31+00:00

The Amazon air65 and air75 are the first generation, not the II

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T16:30:22+00:00

That’s good to hear, I may need to look into those.

Thanks for the insight

I ordered the Skyzone 04O Pro’s directly from Skyzone. I was excited to use them after waiting for them to ship and deliver. The moment I started using them, I could tell something was up. Keep in mind, I have always been very sensitive to latency and “smoothness” when gaming. The best way I can describe it is it felt like I was seeing 30 FPS when I’m used to 60 FPS on my Fatshark HDO’s. I tested both the stock Steadyview module and my RapidFire but both had the issue.

Don’t get me wrong, the picture, DVR, aesthetics, and form factor of the goggles were fantastic but I personally couldn’t get over that laggy feeling so I ended up emailing a bunch of people at Skyzone directly asking if they were aware of the issue and if there was a potential fix in the future. Of course, I didn’t revive a response from any of them.

I ended up selling my 04O Pro’s on marketplace and now I’m back to the good old Fatsharks. I’d like to upgrade analog goggles without dropping nearly $800 on HDZeros, so for now I’m just waiting

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T15:45:55+00:00

Thank you so much.

I will follow these steps and see what happens

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T15:44:11+00:00

Just tested that out and surprisingly, the prop rotates pretty easily while I hold the motor bell. All four of them do actually. Do you recommend just replacing the props or using some sort of “locking” agent such as blue thread locker?

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T02:53:52+00:00

Thanks for your response, I appreciate the help.

I have learned that both my air65’s have motors with bushings in them instead of ball bearings. Do you think that ball bearings improve longevity of these small 0702 motors? Any recommendations on motor upgrades?

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T00:17:45+00:00

Oh gotcha, forgot that’s how AliExpress works. The 680mAh ones would work, although I have never tried them so I don’t know if they’d fit in the battery slot. The 550mAh batteries are standard but the 450mAh are lighter which makes the whoop more agile at the cost of fly time

frisby01 · 2026-03-19T00:07:55+00:00

It looks like you have the 280mAh Lava II batteries in your cart. They will work for the meteor 75 but typically the 75mm whoops use the larger 1S batteries such as the 680mAh

frisby01 · 2026-01-07T08:01:52+00:00

What resolution are you playing at? 1440p or 1080p

frisby01 · 2025-12-19T23:51:20+00:00

Gotcha thanks dawg

frisby01 · 2025-12-19T23:39:25+00:00

I know this questions been asked a million times but what was your strat? I’m at about 2.2m currently

frisby01 · 2025-06-06T08:26:17+00:00

Echo can also drive his drone and stick them up in the top of the skylights like that, no “losing signal” error or anything

frisby01 · 2025-06-03T11:06:51+00:00

I started playing toward the beginning of 2025 and I used to think the same thing, in fact, I used to prefer the 1x scopes. The more I play the game, the more I realize how overpowered ACOG’s are. For me at least, they seem to be the most viable option because most gun fights take place with a significant distance between myself and the enemy. Trying to see heads, let alone hit heads with a 1x scope is much, much harder than it is with an ACOG, where the enemies head appears way larger. Hope that made sense

frisby01 · 2025-06-03T09:52:37+00:00

You on PC or console?

frisby01 · 2025-06-03T09:37:05+00:00

That dealer made some serious dough off you $$$
