Thursday Winter Fly In on a perfect day

[Predator]

Running a bit short of time tonight but it was a very good turn up today & the weather was very kind.

May be more later.

Here is my first rough edit of the 4K HD digital FPV on the first successful flight with the system working as it should.

No gyro-flow on this one as for some reason my video editor wont accept the Gyro corrected footage. No doubt a wrong format setting somewhere. Try again tomorrow.

If anyone is interested there are two short gyro-flow stabilised videos on my you tube channel. Any constructive comments welcomed.

A couple of pictures of my flying on Thursday.

Only seem to be able to get one picture up…… sorry

Resize your pics to 1080 if you are having a problem loading them. There is no limit set on the number you load, only the size of them.

Im jealous of you guys flying Digital FPV when im still on 240P analog. Mike did you have a stall spin at 3 15 in? And seems like some lag with horizon line, but great footage.

[Predator]

Yes, well almost. I was gliding in to the hilltop and got hit with an updraft. No loss of control, just dropped a bit of height.

I’ve removed the Artificial Horizon in the OSD as, like you say it does lag a bit.  I’ve got the OSD refresh rates set fairly low so that is probably why.

Still sorting it all out, as there is quite a learning curve switching from analog to digital.

Will have to bump the ELRS up to full power now as currently I’m fixed at 500mw max and it looks like a bit over 2k maxes it out with the internal antenna in the plane.

Will see how it goes next time.

Your OSD speed drops right down indicative of a stall but not sure if thats air speed or GPS speed on your OSD.

[Predator]

The top reading is air speed, the bottom is ground speed, how they are generated ? any ones guess but no doubt at least in part by the GPS

The ELRS is now set to max 1000mw so that should improve the range somewhat.
