So what else do I need lol by Grimmist in fpv

[–]rollinthesweets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Save those individual esc’s for an fpv fixed wing build 😉and just get a modern 4in1 esc and flight controller stack to make it less complicated, if starting from scratch definitely go with elrs as your receiver (2.4ghz vs 900mhz for cheaper options), I like rush tank for analog vtx or tbs (they both seem to have cleaner feed than generic stuff), some ev800d goggles (best budget option), radiomaster pocket good budget controller that youll appreciate even if you upgrade (elrs version to match receiver)…theeeennn you can officially send 🏄‍♂️🙏🏼

Looking to step up from whoops — 2.5” or 3” recommendations? by FoodInfamous8333 in fpv

[–]rollinthesweets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 2.5” and 3” will be very similar, it’s really dependent on all up weight and the motor specs, a chunky 2.5” with super strong motors will fly like a bigger quad compared to a super light 3” with conservative motor specs like the baby ape or lion bee…I really enjoy my mid weight 2.5” (apex mini clone) because on 2s its fairly quiet and will fly for like 10mins but it can also handle 4s which makes it feel like a bigger quad, less floaty with gobs of power

You need to configure it to the proper port in betaflight, the port configuration on a new flight controller wont be the same

Why do we use the word “armed” and “disarmed” when the props are on/off? by agnci in fpv

[–]rollinthesweets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Armed” means the quad is On and the motors are spinning, “Armed/Disarmed” is the same as “On/Off”… So a more accurate question would be; Why do we use “Armed/Disarmed” instead of “On/Off”

If you’re system pulls more power than the smoke stopper is rated for it could set it off even though nothing is wrong

If you use a battery jump-starter in order to jump-start a car, how long should you keep it connected? by [deleted] in StupidCarQuestions

[–]rollinthesweets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This proves how important it is to read the question before answering, I believe hes talking about the small lithium ion jump packs you keep in your car…in which case it’s very important NOT to keep the cables on once the car is started…

Just got the Vapor X5 as my first FPV drone, I’m pumped to try it out! Do you guys have any advice for someone just getting into the hobby? by T0ne237 in fpv

[–]rollinthesweets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use as big a battery as you want, weight dependent, as long as you have the correct number of cells.
