If this was you….
I hope you step on legos or a nail today. LOL
I had ordered a spare Pavo Pro II to add to my fleet as a backup. Someone swapped the drone for just frame pieces.
I don’t know if it’s just me… I’ve had a string of incidents that when I’ve order something from Amazon, I receive a used item instead of new. So now any high valued orders, I record as I’m opening. Good thing! Right away, I noticed that the box was not wrapped in plastic. The top of the box also had sticker residue, most likely a return sticker or something. Box was kind of crushed too.
Contacted Amazon and sent them the video of the unboxing/opening. Gave me a full refund, but now I have to wait for another drone. Just going to order direct from BetaFPV. I think the meteor 75 II might slip into the cart…
Can I safe it or should I write it off?
Had a very nice flight until my bad landing caused the whoop to land in mud. Didn’t get fully covered, but still looks like a mess.
Anybody had a similar accident?
You think I broke it?
How should I clean it to check?
A friend recommended soaking it in Isopropyl alcohol?
Thanks for all tips :)
UPDATE: I washed off the dirt with destilled water and soaked it in iso, looks pretty clean so far
Tinywhoop? 😅 3S 2"
Bunch of spare parts to make this Frankenstein
Mobula 8 frame
Geprc taker G4 35 AIO
DJI o4 lite with flywoo wide angle mod
Firefly 18 3d printed canopy
Lava 1104 7200kv motors
Geprc elrs nano 915/2.4g dual band receiver (ridiculous, I know 😂 the antenna is longer than the quad itself)
Gnb 3s 660mah
Gemfan d51 5 blade 51mm cinewhoop props
Used a UAV TECH preset in betaflight (micro)
First flight indoors in angle mode was really nice, smooth and responsive. Sounds kinda nice too, doesn't have that high pitched buzzing sound.
Later today gonna take it outside and really open it up..
Anyone else build 3s TiNy whoop?
Anyone know what this component is?
My board did itself a mischief and it's that component has been ejected.
Please don't hate me
Yes, please don't hate me, but all I could afford for right now is the Betafpv Aquila 16 RTF kit. I wanted to get started so bad, but it's been difficult to put the money together. Also, with all the prices going up next month, I wanted to get what I can right away. After all this, I will come up with a plan to save up for better hardware in the future once I get used to flying FPV. The reviews on the kit have been so mixed, but it always comes out in favor for total beginners who then move on to better hardware. I feel like I'm disappointing this sub reddit and hobby. LOL
That's it for now.
What's the best Sim for Tinywhoop?
I'm using Uncrashed right now and it doesn't feel right to me. I tried a bunch of different drone settings but they don't feel like a tinywhoop. I've read about liftoff micro drones, is it good?
What sim do you use and how does it feel?
Anybody has a good tinywhoop setting for Uncrashed?
Maybe it's not only the drone but also the environment I'm flying in.
Thx for your input ✌️
AİR65 2 VS AİR65 2 CHAMPİON FRAME
I assembled both with the same parts, the only difference being 1 gram of RAM. I'm thinking of using the black one with a Lava 2 280mAh and the orange one with a Lava 2 380mAh. What do you think of this choice? 1 gram doesn't quite satisfy me, though. Maybe using it with a 280mAh battery will make a difference.However, as stated online, the difference is only about 0.40 grams; the Champion frame has shorter screws and the plastic under the motor is thinner.One way or another, it was all for that one gram.How much difference does it make during the flight?Enlighten me. Feel free to ask any questions you have, but I may not be able to answer them all because I've only recently started flying and don't have much experience.
DJI O4 Wide camera only
I have two O4 Lite with 117• FoV
I've read on DJI they are supposed to sell the camera alone. I wanted to buy a spare wide camera to replace my narrow one.
Has anyone managed to buy a spare camera alone?
Whooping the hotel room
Brought my tinywhoop to hotel with me while working. Setup some gates in the room.

Inconsistent video signal on Air65ii
I received my air65ii a few days ago, and it has been a blast.
i started having issue with the video though, after changing the lipo, the ev800d screen would go black or give static different different than "nothing on this channel" (see video).
I thought that was because the VTX connector wasn't properly plugged, but this morning, after the first lipo (with perfect video), I could not get a video signal despite unplugging/plugging it.
Antenna plug seems OK, I don't see any damage.
Do you have any idea on how to troubleshoot this ?
Edit: wriggled the VTX connector for a while and it came back. The soldered connection on the VTX board are glued/resined so I guess that's not from there. Hopefully this will last 🤷. I guess that's not an issue with band/channel then.
Title: Air65 vs Meteor75 (O4 / O4 wide) for house + playground?
Cześć wszystkim! Szukam drona nr 2, żeby latać w domu i w okolicy placów zabaw.
Mam już Mario Mini 2.5" z DJI O4, więc waham się między Air65 Meteor75 (planuję kupić wersję O4/O4 Lite/Szeroką).
The Air65 is analog, so I’d plan to buy the VR03/VR04 goggles for it.
Który z nich polecacie jako uzupełnienie dla 2.5"? Dzięki!
Packing gear
I recently watched this video and I’d like to do that too, fly somewhere for 1 battery and move on. What’s holding me back is this: before I can fly I have to screw the sticks on my rm pocket and screw the antenna’s on my Hdzero boxpro. And afterwards remove them. I’d very much like to skip these steps. Is there anything really wrong with keeping them on and stuffing them in a bag, is the risk of breaking that big? How would you guys go about this?
Training myself to spot the branches
Analog's worst nightmare of a flight spot lmao
