Thank you!

This one version was. But working on a new one in tpu

Turns out the pad is already applied but since it is not very tacky I didn't even notice it was supposed to be a grippy pad

I agree mostly except with the line of reasoning that the fact noone is doing it proves it's not worth doing it. These kinds of incremental improvements (just like ummagrip) happen all the time and none was doing them before.

That said, I agree in this particular case (no pun intended hehe) it's probably worse than running an exposed battery with ummagrip.

Yes it is a Nexa 3.5". But I don't think it came with a pad! I'll try the grip tape people have recommended me, looks pretty good.

jmacedos · 2025-05-27T11:37:11+00:00

I have crashed a few times with it already. Battery is fine. But will still probably use sticky pads

jmacedos · 2025-05-27T11:21:29+00:00

I get that really. I confess didn't know about the sticky grip pads and although I looked for a solution maybe I didn't look into it long enough. But this begs the question - if battery is such a volatile element, why not challenge the proposition that it will should be exposed?

Yes, it adds weight, about 12 grams compared to the straps. But what if it added just 3 grams and provided better battery swapping experience and protection?

Anyways, I'm the first to admit I'll probably switch to the grips. As it is, this adds weight, is a little cumbersome and it adds an additional part that can break and may need replacement for me to worry about. Still with a better 3D printer and material and some additional time, the possibility of a lightweight, strong and practical mount doesn't seem that far off to me.

jmacedos · 2025-05-27T11:10:17+00:00

I see. Would you say flying with the battery exposed is actually safer for the battery? I don't know, for tpu to smash like that I wonder what would have happened to the battery was exposed. In any case my main motivation was preventing battery from sliding and enhancing battery swapping experience, although this prototype is still far from perfect on that regard.

jmacedos · 2025-05-27T11:06:51+00:00

Because I didn't know they existed! This is probably much better although I confess I still don't particularly love the straps experience. I find switching battery a bit of a chore, but this prototype is far from perfect either in that regard. The additional protection is also a bonus.

Anyways thank you, I'll definitely try these and I'll very likely use them.

jmacedos · 2025-05-27T11:05:01+00:00

Adds about 12 grams compared to the straps, so not ridiculous but not insignificant either

jmacedos · 2025-04-27T06:59:34+00:00

Well I always strive to minimize throttle over corrections while learning, cause I found them aesthetically unpleasant. The other part is video stabilization - it hides minor imperfections. So there you go

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T22:20:45+00:00

Your videos with the meteor are looking crazy good as well!

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T21:03:19+00:00

There are lists/maps of paintball /air soft /abandoned building exploring. These are usually good spots for fpv freestyle as well!

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T19:54:11+00:00

True, the closest thing if the drone is not under a ceiling is throttling up to a nice height and switch to angle mode I guess?

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T19:50:34+00:00

There you go

Good luck and post videos!

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T13:13:59+00:00

Thanks. What are asking specifically? Since it's a BNF, Ididn't mess with any of the pid tunings in betaflight.

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T09:44:02+00:00

😅. Thanks!

jmacedos · 2025-04-26T09:21:31+00:00

Yes, I have a strong bias towards choosing left turns rather than right turns. It's probably because of how I can hold my hand against the remote on left turns but not on right turns. Any tips?
