    why the heck are the Fatshark Dominator HD2's more than the HD3's??

    Just to add to all this.. I have both the dominator v3 and ev800. I got the dominators to start and picked up the ev800 when they were on sale at Banggood for 59 bucks so my son could use them to try and fly or for ride alongs. I am so glad I didn't get the ev800s for my primary goggle. If...

    bad motor causing video interference?

    Thanks for the reply. Something like this? Amazon.com: Crazepony L-C Power Supply Filter 2A 16V Input Reverse Polarity Protection for FPV Racing Quadcopter: Toys & Games Basically I just unsolder the the wires from the lipo plug on the PDB and insert this in-between? Weird how this...

    bad motor causing video interference?

    I have another post about battery, this is different. I have a second quad, which I believe I have narrowed down to motors causing interference? This interference is like white bars running vertically up the screen. Is it possible for a motor to cause interference? My test - Betaflight...

    possible for battery to cause VTX interference?

    I have been seeing some interference, not the standard break up you might experience when going around a tree or something, this is subtle diagonal bars that constantly go across the screen from bottom left to top right. This shows up if I am standing 5 feet from the quad. I initially...

    BLHeli-s 4 in 1 ESC question

    Ahhh interesting idea.. that would be much easier then running all those cables around for sure. I look at this a little closer and see if that would possibly work. I mean worst case its just gonna spin the motor wrong, so I can just desolder and go a different route if so..

    BLHeli-s 4 in 1 ESC question

    I am doing a brushless micro build and getting ready to jump into it. I have most of the wiring figured out with the exception of one. The motors to the ESC. I can see on the ESC (A1,B1,C1),(A2,B2,C2), etc and I am assuming this maps to the motor number. The part I am confused on and...

    VTX recommendations?

    I went with this switchable TX526 from Eachine, figured I would try that first and see how it works. If it's crappy I am only out 12 bucks and can use as a backup.

    How to put buzzer on this FC?

    I will give that a shot and see what happens. But I tried to just setup the beeper option in modes as well and nothing when I flipped the switch. Thanks for all the replies and help though, much appreciated.

    How to put buzzer on this FC?

    Yea.. Thats actually where I tested it. I saved the betaflight settings and power up the quad, when I would flight the switch it did nothing. Removed it all from betaflight and still nota...

    VTX recommendations?

    So I have a eachine wizard with the stupid 90 degree connected for the VTX antenna, terrible design. Had a nice crash today flying and antenna broke off. Going to mount the antenna straight out the back with a new VTX, are most of them more or less the same quality or is there something that...

    How to put buzzer on this FC?

    Yea I enabled vbat in betaflight, and even tried putting buzzer in modes on Aux 3 and just turning it on with a switch and nothing. Is there another place I have to program this in the FC maybe?

    How to put buzzer on this FC?

    Got this FC for a micro build, I tried to put a tiny 5v buzzer I used on a couple of other micro quads I have but it doesn't work. Looks like a repurposed UART? Do I have to install the buzzer to BEEP+/- and then do something special in betaflight? Do I have to run power to the 3.3v and...

    New Goggles

    Saw these as well and thought about getting them but instead I picked up a paid of EV800's for my son, banggood had them on sale for $54.99, so he can learn/watch me fly. He can see perfectly fine out of these but he is also a 13 year old kid. I however cannot see anything, blurry as all get...

    Betaflight PIDs for micro quads

    Maybe it's cause I am still a newb at flying but I flashed my qx90 and qx70 with betaflight and left the stock PIDs and it seems to fly great in angle mode.. I haven't taken it outside yet, he is my 3rd flight with the Qx90..
