Fact check: you can now switch between 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio on the VR04 Analog Goggles!

One of the biggest complaints about the BetaFPV VR04 Analog Goggles was that you couldn't switch between 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios. It turns out that's no longer the case. Newer firmware versions now include a Scale option that lets you switch between them.

The catch is that BetaFPV still hasn't published an official firmware update method for existing VR04 Analog Goggles. So if your goggles don't have the option yet, there's currently no official way to update them. I've reached out to BetaFPV support to get this cleared up.

My quick guide showing how to change the aspect ratio: https://blog.musadigital.nl/posts/how-to-change-aspect-ratio-on-betafpv-vr04-goggles/

Finally reached the podium!!! 3rd place 🏆

Feels goooood, damn when I think that one year ago these guys were 10-15s faster than me... And now my best qualification run (first part of this video) is less than 1s from the 1st!

Meteor 75, first flight outside

First drone here. Yesterday, it was my first flight outside after 1 hour flying inside. Unfortunately, it will be also my last fly with it as I managed to lost it.

I wanted to try it outside with more space than in my home, so I went outside at the top of an hill without too much vegetation.

It was a *bit* windy. Not so much to me, but there was definitely some wind.

Started the whoop, forgot to immortalize by recording the flight. Full throttle for 2seconds. Then I was totally disoriented and had absolutely no clue where I was. I stayed flat but the only things I was seeing was the sky. Unlike in my home where furnitures help to positionnate in space.

10 seconds after launching my wife told me: you're going far away. Still no idea where I was. 2 seconds later some snow on the screen. Then no signal after 5 seconds. I disengaged, set the bipper. Wife saw it, before diving, above threes that were 400 m away.

I searched for some time but dit not found it... Lost in the wild.

I had no idea of what I was doing. Punished.

Anyway I found this fantastic for the couple of hours I was inside. And the same is on it's way.

See you soon.

Equipment was : meteor 75, radiomaster pocket and betafpv vr04.

Help with “runaways” please

Here’s my motor and pid settings if that helps to see. My air75 ii pretty often has what seems to be a runaway, the runaway warning does not appear on screen but the drone will begin to tumble mid air and after a second or two I’m able to regain control and continue flying as if nothing happened, most of the time it seems to happen when I cut the throttle after blipping it to the max real quick for a stunt or something, and just sometimes it seems to happen randomly

Firefly 1.8 hover throttle much higher after AIO replacement

I replaced the AIO on my Flywoo Firefly 1.8 because I was having RX loss issues with the original board.

The quad now flies smoothly, but the hover throttle has increased a lot. With the old AIO it seemed to hover around 40% throttle, while with the new AIO it is closer to 55–60%, and the climb performance feels much weaker.

Props are correct, throttle reaches 2000, motor output/throttle limit are 100%, and the motors don’t get hot.

Has anyone seen something similar after replacing an AIO?

Bought 2s frame for mobula 7 because there weren’t any 1s in stock. Ideas how to secure the battery?

Hi! I’ve tried putting 2 batteries, but they were too fat, no clue what to do, nowhere to get 1s

Throttle “Stuck” and can’t figure it out.

*I TRIED THIS WITOUT HOLDING IT ASWELL DOES SAME THING, JUST HELD IT BECAUSE I CANT RECORD ME FLYING EASILY

So just bought another new air75 and when I set it up and tried to fly it it was flipping over instantly and saying runaway so I went into beta flight and the flight controller was all wack in the 3D model so I adjust that so the 3D model accurately represents how my drone is oriented. But still like the video shows I arm it motors start normally then when I throttle up and back down it just keeps going up and only stops when I disarm it so I had to catch it out of the sky. It doesn’t spin or do anything other than shoot up.

Here’s some things I’ve already tried/looked at
- Checked the motor and propeller direction physically and on betaflight. My motors are set as reversed because of propeller direction.
- checked to make sure the receiver throttle in betaflight was acting correctly, going from 1000 up and then back down to 1000.
- adjusted the 3D model, had to adjust alignment with the yaw setting to 225 for it to act correctly.

Please help this is super annoying and have tried and watched many videos. Feel free to ask any more about what I’ve done as I may have missed things I’ve tried. Thank you!!

How to get ELRS 2.4 protocol on Pavo Pico II SBUS?

Hello Guys!

I recently bought my first TinyWhoop but at my local store only the SBUS version was available and I previously got my RadioMaster Pocket with ELRS... Is there any way to use it without soldering anything? If I have to solder, what do I need to?

I read some pages... some of them tells thats firmware and on the otherwise tells that is a hardware feature.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Can I add a gps to meps sz 1s 15A?

I would like to connect a gps to the board but I don’t see how I could do it in addition to a vtx and elrs rx. Would it be possible to remap some things to make it work? Any help apprecheated.

First time flying my tiny whoop and got it stuck in a 10m palm tree. Made a post and you guys gave some great suggestions.

My friend and I went straight to bigW to get some rope. After a few times of throwing my friend managed to throw it over the exact leaf my drone was stuck in and then we started shaking ... and it FELL DOWN🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

Man I'm SO RELIEVED

Mob8 O4 won't show up in Betaflight anymore - still connects to radio and goggles - other quads still connect fine with same cable

I have a new mobula8 O4 that I've flown for less than 10 minutes overall. I was able to set it up in Betaflight when I first got it but now it won't show up in betaflight and it's not being recognized by any of my computers.

I can still plug in a battery and fly it. The exact same cable works for my other quads so I really don't think it's the cable.

What do you think the problem could be? How can I fix this?

Indoor racing gates

I've seen videos with people who have 'gates' or rings or goal posts inside and they make a track. I searched on Amazon for FPV racing gates but for some reason they were like $100.

What are these called and where can I get them super cheap?
