Impressive flight! I also love how colorful and detailed the video is, but why did you upload it at only 25hz?

Would be great to have another log of a descent, especially with debug_mode = DSHOT_RPM_TELEMETRY. Logs of aggressive flips and rolls can help with general PID tuning. To handle propwash you need reduced filtering so there's less delay and the FC can react to movement faster. But if you have...

If the GUI had 5.5 % then the "get dshot_idle_value" command should return "dshot_idle_value = 550". A "diff all" won't show "set dshot_idle_value = 550" because it's the default but a "dump" command should. If you use dynamic idle the minimum RPM should be quite a bit higher than the stall RPM...

Ok great so the idle throttle of 0 was definitely the problem. I think it should be somewhere between 3 and 5.5 (the Betaflight default) for this kwad. Regarding dynamic idle, if the motors stall at 600 RPM then your minimum RPM should be at least 1800, and the idle_min_rpm setting should be...

Hi coyote, interesting problem. In the logs I see that around 1:06 motor 4 goes completely to 0%, that's not normal. After that I see the yaw I-term freak out quite a bit which is to be expected when only three motors were running. What is your Motor Idle Throttle Value (dshot_idle_value) set...

Well as far as I understand, Bidirectional DShot is a "kind of" ESC telemetry that doesn't require an extra wire back to the FC. The ESC will simply send the current RPM (or actually the eRPM, which is the RPM multiplied by the number of magnets on the motor bell) back to the FC after every...

Hi kutay. Sure you can do bidirectional DShot perfectly with 24khz. Just don't use JazzMaverick firmware, there are problems with it lately. Pay a few bucks for JEsc licenses and you're good to go. I'm not sure if 24 and 48khz firmwares make different startup sounds, I think there's only a...

There are problems with the latest JazzMaverick releases: BF4.2 - RPM filtering only good to 16.73 on JazzMaverick BLheli_S | IntoFPV Forum I'm only using JEsc, it costs a little bit but it's all worth it.

Sun, boats, dolphins, pretty girls... count me in! :) The editing is great but I'm not too crazy about of the colorful overlay. It would be better if that was there just in the beginning and a few seconds here and there throughout the video, but not all the time.

If the constant warnings bother you, you may want to set a small delay in Betaflight. I have set the following: set vbat_duration_for_warning = 20 set vbat_duration_for_critical = 5 This means the voltage has to be below the warning voltage for 2 seconds before the warning is shown, and half a...

This video seems to cover it all:

Maybe, just maybe, there's still a tiny bit of water under some chip. Warm up the board with a hair dryer for at least five minutes. It may not work, but you have nothing to lose, right?

Make sure to get a good set of hex drivers. MIP makes the best ones, but they're a bit expensive. I have these for my RC cars and drones, pretty happy with them: Drillpro 4pcs 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0mm Hex Screwdriver Bit HSS Titanium Coated Repair Tool Set Hand Tools from Tools, Industrial & Scientific...

This motor? XING X1507 FPV NextGen Motor (black) It says 12N14P, so you counted the right number of magnets and you should enter 14 in Betaflight.

Happy to hear the quad flies without issues! I guess the system does draw a lot of startup power, and the fuse is a fast one. I wonder if the ESC's startup tune might be the culprit; I don't expect the ESC microcontrollers to require a lot of power (which is why I didn't list it earlier) but I...
