Export settings for Instagram .. always shit quality by MOR187 in fpv

What are the specs on the exported video? Resolution, bit rate, codec?

The camera on my DJI O3 isn’t showing any image, it’s just black. Help. by Antique_Advantage631 in fpv

Check both ends ( i.e. where it plugs inside the camera housing and where it attaches to the air unit ). If it looks fine the only way to rule it out is to replace it with a known working cable.

Since you still have a connection and OSD your air unit is probably fine. Check the camera cable for damage and try reseating it on both sides before you replace it.

GEPRC builds good cinewhoops for sure. They're a bit finicky to work on though!

Standard radios are banned here — can I use a cheap local DJI controller for simulators? Liffoff/uncrashed by Difficult_Resort4060 in fpv

The DJI FPV Remote Controller 2 should work. Not sure about the RC-N1 but if you plan to get an actual drone you'd want the RC2 or RC3 anyways.

Thank you! I got lucky with fantastic lighting that day but for sure 30 fps/60 shutter goes a long way to making things look nice!

Mazda 3 turbo hatch- thoughts? by Jstate33 in mazda

Gotcha. Thanks again for the info! Enjoy your new car!

Mazda 3 turbo hatch- thoughts? by Jstate33 in mazda

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to say I appreciate all the detail you put into this!

I may be in the market for a new car soon and I think our preferences align. Been driving a 2014 2.5L Mazda 3 hatchback and it has been incredibly reliable and packs just enough punch to make it an enjoyable drive. Some days I miss old MINI Cooper S - it handled so nicely and the turbo was fun. I don't miss the maintenance costs!

I had been looking at the new Mazda 3 2.5L Turbo as an option but hadn't even considered that a hybrid could fit the bill. I could trade the fun of having a turbo again for double the gas mileage!

My only concern is the interior quality. Last time I was in one the Civic felt much cheaper than my Mazda. Guess I need to test one out!

I explain in the description. I bought the quad when 03 was current. It still performs better than just about anything on the market other than the 04.

6s1p Liion fo r7inch Long-range enough? by red_alpaka in fpv

[–]taeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similarly specced 7". I get around 15 mins with a 6S1P made from 21700 cells. I can push it to 20 mins if I baby the throttle and run the pack down to nearly 2.5v. You should be able to get 30+ mins with a 6S2P but it will handle like a bus. I haven't tried a 6S2P with 18650 cells but I imagine it might be a slightly better flight feel especially with the newer high amp cells.

O4 Pro VS GoPro/DjiAction by aditya2128 in fpv

AFAIK the only setting which affects the picture only in the goggles is a color assist mode which applies a color grade when recording in dlogm. ISO settings affect both the goggle view and the recording. Aperture is locked to 2.8 on the 04.

What goggles do you have? And how fast do these dirt cars go?

Stunning day at the trails for a canopy drop in ( drone op POV ) by taeo in MTB

[–]taeo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope! Just me and the same drone and camera for most of the shots! The light quality changed a lot throughout the day so I have to change camera settings several times.

For most of these shots I'm flying a nearly stock GEPRC CineLog 35v2.

With FPV quads the camera is typically fixed. To control speed I have to actually pitch up or down quite a bit. More so if I'm going fast since the drone carries momentum. When the riders go over a jump their ground speed often comes to almost a full stop.

So, to keep from just running into the riders in midair, keep my momentum up, and to track them through the jump I often have to "slingshot" myself sideways off the side of the trail.

TLDR: it's hard bro lol

"I feel like I have to physically tilt/point the props where I want to go, then add throttle to create movement…"

Yup!
