I've been working on Johnny FPV's "flick" move. Also inverted yaw spins. Here's my last pack of today. I haven't actually flown in like three weeks so it was really good to get back in the air.
2017-01-15 03:37:13 +0000 UTC View PostDear Patrons,
I'm starting to think about a series on DSHOT. What do you want to know? Some things I have in mind include:
What is Dshot? Why is it better (maybe) than OS and MS?
Why do some boards not support Dshot? What boards and ESCs support Dshot?
How to flash BF3.1 and use Dshot with supported ESCs and ...

This is a teaser of the work I'm doing on the FPV Receiver Group Two video. This video is very preliminary, but I thought you'd enjoy it. Note that YouTube absolutely destroys the detail in the lower three videos on the return path, so please don't let the muddy gray blocky video affect your judgment. Look for video glitches to ...

Just making sure all of y'all saw this.
PS: Please enjoy this fine example of Southern American English's unique variants on the personal pronoun. "You" - Singular 2nd person. "Y'all" - Plural 2nd person, not necessarily inclusive of 100% of the group. "All of y'all" - Plural 2nd person, inclusive of 100% of the group.

Patrons,
I just finished uploading this, and I'm happy to give you an early look. I'm really happy with this flying. Kevin Dougherty's recent posts of his flying have inspired me to tackle power loops. I think they're starting to come together.

I hope to keep practicing this until it looks natural, especially the "sit on the swing" landing at the end. This was really fun flying, and a very different feel than the big, fast lines I usually focus on. Always nice to mix things up a bit. The whole time I was flying, I was thinking, "Mega Whoop". You know, like a Tiny Whoop...
2016-09-15 03:20:45 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a good kind of problem to have! I have too many interesting FC's and I can't decide which one to build out next. Help me decide in the comments. Choices are:
Omnibus AIO F3 with Betaflight OSD

I post highlight videos of me flying at my best, but actually I'm a relatively timid pilot. I'm not able to just take one pack and bomb the hell out of a new site, or a race course, damn the consequences. Typically, when I fly a new site, basically the entire first flight session is me getting a feel for it. Where the...

This will be the first Quadcopter Choreography video that gets released, probably some time next week. Patrons get an early look. Hope you like it.

This is take two of my Quadcopter Choreography project, "It's All The Same" by Signal Path. In this project, I fly while listening to a song, and try to develop choreography that fits the music well.
I felt that this take was solid enough to show you, but overall I think the first take is better. The flow of the first take syn...

2016-08-24 18:12:48 +0000 UTC View Postf you look at any guide to "how to do Patreon", you'll see instructions to make special offers and tiers of membership open to your patrons. That approach doesn't really appeal to me. For one thing, I'm just not a fan of the whole "first class / second class" approach where people who pay more get more access or special privileg...

Hello, patrons! Normally, before I make a livestream public, I trim off the "starting soon" segment and then I add time indexes to let people jump straight to whatever segment interests them. I also add mid-roll ads (not too many, but some). Currently, YouTube is giving me trouble trimming off the "starting soon" segment, and th...

I have a FrSky DJT module from back when I had a Turnigy 9x, but now that I have a Taranis I don't really need it. Does anybody out there have a radio with a JR module, and want to get into the FrSky ecosystem? No charge, just you pay shipping.

I live-streamed the 60 amp battery testing on a whim tonight. The video has been made private because I don't want to spoil the results, and I also want to make sure I have done a full analysis of the data before making any public conclusions. But I figure this is the exact sort of thing that should be the benefit of patronage, ...
