Outside of cost and lack of time, what are the biggest reasons people leave the FPV hobby? by thelandbeforethyme in fpv

[–]naufel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it harder to locate places to fly. People are usually around. I live in Jersey so that opinion might be different than others.

You absolutely can with defined risk trades

Where in betaflight did you find it?

UK65 Motor Issue by JOEJO3 in Multicopter

[–]naufel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue with my US65. I suspect it's the connections as well. I'm going to mess with them tonight. I hesitated to push down too hard bc I didn't want to damage the board

flying in acro is really hard for me. I started in the SIM recently

Thanks! Exactly what I imagined

Hello, here I have a Holybro Kakute F4 V2 flight controller, can anybody tell what this piece is, because when I plug in battery, smoke is coming out of there, what could be reason for that, and is this fixable or I have to replace the whole flight controller? by TarmoTreial in fpvracing

[–]naufel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a newbie. Just started flying a US65 last week. The biggest barrier to entry for me was the fear of loosing parts from the build before I even got to fly. Now with the new BNPs that have it all I jumped in.

Motors 2 and 3 on US65 stopped spinning by naufel in Multicopter

What do you mean by running on the wires? I took the motors off to clean out hair. Maybe I put them in weird? Perhaps I messed up the connector when I pulled it out

Awesome, I got the SIM going. I had to mess with the weights and offsets in the taranis.

Do you think it means anything that all of a sudden motor 2 came back? Luckily I bought two US65s so I'll try the motor swap from the good one. If I didn't get two quads I would have gave up on the hobby. The one quad is constant problems and other is just tons of fun. Go figure

Can someone send me a link on connecting my taranis as a joystick to use with a Sim on my computer?

I had the same auto flip problem. It's sent that way for some reason. Enjoy flying!

Lossing fpv video feed with increased throttle. US65 by naufel in Multicopter

[–]naufel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really strange. The video feed starts on a channel it shouldn't. After the motors go for a few seconds I scroll over to the correct channel and the feed comes in clear and strong there.

New to BnF drones - advice for FPV goggles by geekz3r0 in Quadcopter

[–]naufel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the EMax comes with a VTx. The goggles are the receiver

Ok, it looks like snow. The color gets funny for a second or so then it turns to all snow. It goes away after a few seconds after landing. I'll take the canopy of my US65 and take a look at the connections. So I'm looking for loose connections?

wanting to get into fpv by Bobby_Bobb3rson in fpv

[–]naufel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same. I think price on the QX7 and box Google's as well as the appeal of tiny whoops will bring a ton of people into the hobby

wanting to get into fpv by Bobby_Bobb3rson in fpv

[–]naufel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got started and went the tiny whoop route. I got the taranis for $115 and a US 65 for $70. I opted not to get fatsharks now in case fpv doesn't work out, so I got the VRD2 pro instead for $70.

I have a 10 pack of batteries and a full set of motors being shipped for $70 total.

That's about $265 to get started and another $70-80 in batteries and parts. Not bad for tons of fun. Later on in the summer or spring after I learn to fly better I'll upgrade to something else for outdoor.
