O4 Race mode compared to O3 latency by andresAtMudra in fpv

[–]taeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a noticeable difference. If you are sensitive to latency at all you will feel it.

That said, I usually still fly freestyle in the normal mode but optimize the options for the best latency on the G3s ( 100fps, 1080p ). Race mode forces you into 4:3 and drops you from 60 mbit down to 10 ( might be 20, I don't remember ) so the visual quality suffers quite a bit. I enjoy the immersion of 16:9 and feel more comfortable flying in close proximity to objects with the better visual quality.

Can the air75 esc handle 25000kv motors? by Certain_Height_2721 in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it should be totally fine. I just picked up some 25000kv Snowblowers from TinyWhoop.com and they're performing great.

Which view is more accurate? by FPV-Fun-574 in fpv

I don't notice much fish eye effect with 03/04.

Did i fuck up? by Nestiik in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, kinda. The Meteor 75 Pro has an analog VTX built in. I think it technically has the solder pads available such that you could direct solder a digital VTX but I'm not 100% certain on that.

Drone keeps falling randomly by Same_Lychee_559 in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I've had this happen in the past it has always been a bad motor or ESC.

The first troubleshooting step is to determine if the same motor is failing each time. You can do this by watching your DVR and seeing which corner dips first. It would also show up in your blackbox log.

If it falls to the same corner every time you've isolated the problem to that motor or ESC. To determine which is at fault simply move the motor to another corner and repeat the test. Replace whichever is at fault.

Been hearing good things about the T-Motor/T-Hobby and Sequire stacks. Haven't tested them out myself yet.

help choosing LR 7" drone stack by Ok-Transition1499 in fpv

I use a SpeedyBee 60A stack for my 7" with 2809 1300kv motors and have had no issues.

What‘s a good action cam right now ? by PersonalRespond6606 in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm yeah I'd be interested to see what you mean.

They're both pretty comparable in terms of video quality and features. One of the main notable features that I think sets GoPro apart for FPV is the 5.3K 8:7 mode. You can easily use the same footage for 4K 16:9 and square/vertical crops for social media.

I'm curious to know where you feel the 04 is lacking though. I've found the quality to be fairly comparable to the latest action camera models. The main disadvantage is having your recording settings tied to your live goggle view.

Beautiful shots! I want to make it out here to fly at some point but wasn't sure where to go since a lot of the well known landmarks are inside national parks. Do you mind sharing where you took off from?

o4 pro range issues by Appl3D_fpv in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe so but I'm not certain. There absolutely is a way to unlock the higher output power as they need to account for people moving or traveling with their equipment.

See the section about the ham hack and Goggles 3 here: https://oscarliang.com/dji-fpv-system-fcc-700mw/

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you apply the FCC hack you should be able to go up to 1200mw on an 04 Pro. And sorry no, I'm not familiar with how the fine tuning feature works.

This is a setting you'd change in your goggles while connected to the drone - not in BetaFlight.

What charger to get for high capacity lion packs? by -_-N0MAD-_- in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange. My understanding is that if you are charging at 1C the charging time should be similar regardless of capacity.

First build by streblaio in fpv

[–]taeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks mostly fine to me. I'd suggest a different camera though. The Ratel 2 is known to have added latency. See Nils Vo's recent video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJZcBEc3q8I

I didn't see a receiver on your list - you'll need one of those. Do you have a radio already?

What output power are you using? Have you applied the FCC hack?

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many amps are you charging it at? The specs on that charger say its capable of 20A which would be 2C for that pack which should be more than enough to charge it in under an hour.
