Hello daniel, need few tips from u 1. Do u use nd filter provided and what is the cam setting? 2. What is cam setting for night recording? 3. NTSC vs PAL which is better?
@@ronniequalls7217 yes for sure! But it’s the higher frame rate it doesn’t support. Its only 60fps but to be honest 60 is good enough if you don’t care too much for latency
Yes you are correct! The default is good for most setups but this one had super low kv motors and its hover point is higher than typical. It was better after I adjusted. But betaflight does overall land harder. Inav is almost too slow. But both can be adjusted
Either done all the steps or put the binding phrase on the receiver card on betaflight then connected to the WiFi of the radio control or put the WiFi password then or entered the binding phrase Either I did all the steps or I put the binding phrase on the receiver card on betaflight then I connected to the WiFi of the radio control or I put the WiFi password then or I entered the binding phrase m Either done all the steps or put the binding phrase on the receiver card on betaflight then connected to the WiFi of the radio control or put the WiFi password then or entered the binding phrase
It seems you have to put in the password which is expresslrs. For me it just connects because it already saved the password😎 try writing expresslrs in password and you should be good 👍🏽
Ok it let me in but when I entered the binding phrase which is also inserted in the receiver card on betaflight but when I save it tells me upload Failed what can I do to resolve it
You’re welcome! I want to try Ardu next and see what that will be like! I’ve always been more into betaflight but like to know how everything else works 😎 I’m actually part Jamaican and that’s probably what you’re picking up on haha! Actually born in Switzerland but lived a bit in Jamaica and all over the place haha
I read it can work without one and there’s a CLI command to use just gps altitude but in general gps altitude info varies quite a bit and isn’t as accurate so baro is always preferred. I do want to test if it will work with no baro and how stable it would be
I just came back trying 7.1, saw ypur comment on JB's video. My kwad was toilet boling on RTH and PH both, will now turn off the mag and try it. Thanks for the video though 🎉
@@DanielSingerX so just came back, position hold surprisingly works great, RTH works 50% of the times, other times it just goes into toilet boling. But still I wanted INAV mainly for PH and it works alright. Thanks for the video dude
@@asifwanders Amazing to hear it worked!! I did find RTH to be a bit weird sometimes where it waits a long time but never had any serious toilet bowling issues yet! Just a little sometimes and it seems to correct. But that’s definitely an improvement for you! A lot depends on how good your flight controller gyro is and vibrations. But glad I could help 😎
Yes that’s exactly what it’s doing! But the magic is the gps direction can manipulate the offset of the origin take off direction based on the gyro. The acc and gyro are basically blind and will only know position based off the heading when u took off until the gps data points it to real world coordinates. Of course a compass would do the same. I also imaging a system where if we had a real compass to align our drone and make sure we always take off in the same heading like facing exactly north every time it would also work.
Good question! Technically it can work without a barometer. I haven’t tried it but I know the altitude precision without the barometer isn’t as good. There’s a CLI command to get it to just use the GPS altitude and in that case you’ll only just need the GPS for every function. I will try this myself 😎
That’s a setting in gyroflow! It’s what gets rid of the fish eye of the lens and makes straight lines at the edge of the frame actually look straight instead of curved from the fish eye effect 😎
I don't know how you did that, I couldn't get my compass to work but when I turned the Mag off position hold or return to home didn't work. In Modes RTH disappeared when I turn Mag off...
This is a good point! Did you have RTH set up before you turned mag off? I did and it just continued to work once I had it off. However I just found out if you’re setting up from scratch and go to set the navigation modes without the mag there’s no option. How I fixed that is to select FAKE where u select the type of MAG and then the modes come up. Also remember this has to be on INAV 7.1 release candidate and it won’t work on just the 7
@@DanielSingerX ok, I actually set it up and after weeks of trying to get the compass to work I gave up and turned it off then realized that nothing worked anymore. I afterwards just changed to Beta flight. I will try and select fake and try again. Thanks for the info
@@albertfalls That’s exactly why I was excited to make this video because setting up a compass can be such a pain! Luckily it’s easy to switch between betaflight if u have your config saved. Only if u use analog you’ll have to also update the osd font. But it will definitely work if u set it up from scratch and use the FAKE mag. I imagine in the final release of 7.1 and updated configurator you won’t need the fake mag but let’s see what happens
@@DanielSingerX ok well I'll definitely give it a go, thanks for posting this video, there are no other videos out there showing how to bypass the compass. Your video has been very informative. Thank you.
I was thinking the exact same thing! In theory it’s possible! I’ve found that using any baro will bounce up and down a fair bit and Lidar is waaay more accurate in holding altitude but that doesn’t work higher up. I certainly want to test this. I would recommend the MTF-01 lidar and optical flow sensor for this and I remember seeing a setting to mix it with baro for use higher up. I must test this now that u say. I’m just in the process of rebuilding my rig with the optical flow so hope to get to it soon 😎
@@DanielSingerX Thanks for the heads up, i'm waiting for it! imho baro only feels bouncy on lower altitude, so yeah adding lidar might be the best solution
I will share this in a later video when I finish the development 😎 it’s not optional just yet. The specs are similar to the other one you asked about but the motors are 1103 8000kv t-motor. The frame you want is the grey one that holds the LiDAR in the back? I have a few designs. Or is it the black one?
This drone is pretty much all built by me. The frame is 3D printed in ABS and is my own design that I’m still tweaking. It’s running 8000kv 1202.5 Happymodel motors for efficiency and long flight times on a single 18650 battery, and emax avan 3 inch props that make it more silent 😎 flight controller is jehmcu GSF405A
No it won't work this way without a GPS, However you could use only an optical flow and lidar module without gps that will make it hold position based on looking at the ground and sensing the physical distance but this would be limited to a set altitude of about 3 meters depending on the module. with the gps you can go as high as you want and have it hold. personally haven't tried position hold with only the lidar and optical flow but in theory it should work! A good optical flow module with lidar is the MTF-01 if you want low altitude position hold 😎 I think I will try this also
Terima kasih! Bagi saya kebanyakan semuanya adalah konfigurasi default. saya hanya menaikkan nilai PID dengan sangat tinggi. Di INAV 7.1 posisi ditahan menjadi lebih stabil yang saya perhatikan. Namun PID untuk Anda akan berbeda tergantung pada motor dan berat Anda. Aturannya adalah jika motor lebih lemah Anda memerlukan nomor PID yang lebih tinggi. saya menggunakan baterai 1s pada motor KV rendah sehingga PID saya hampir setinggi mungkin. Semakin baik sinyal GPS yang Anda miliki, semakin stabil sinyal tersebut melayang. Saya harap Anda memahami terjemahan ini 😁
Thank you! I did see his video! I also made a video before about the same and our findings were very similar. Betaflight has come a long way and I feel a lot more comfortable with it for long range, but INAV gives ultimate comfort
Thank you!! The OSD is nothing special really, it’s the default for HDZero and also Walksnail looks similar. The layout u can just choose where you want the elements on the screen. Maybe I can post and link my OSD settings page if you want to copy the layout
This is news to me I didn't know you could flash a drone with INAV. I thought INAV was for fixed wings and other planes. But good to know you can flash it to a drone. I just know betaflight Quicksilver and emuflight
This is what I thought in the very beginning also! In more recent times I stumbled on people flying inav on regular drones and even doing freestyle acro and I became interested. There are few caveats tho like not all flight controllers have targets in INAV or in some cases the target name is different. Or you may see the target name and it may flash but the motors don’t detect or have a missing gyro. But most well known flight controllers will work!
@@DanielSingerX oh wow so that is a problem and should stick to what I know. I'm trying out fixed wings cause drone loss is getting to me. I love the speed and range with fixed wings.
@@LehtusBphree2flyFPV I’d say you can always try it out with whatever hardware you have! If it doesn’t work u can always go back to your saved configuration and carry on! That’s the idea I had when I tried my first INAV project. I’m also interested in a wing 😎 I flew airplanes long ago before INAV and flight controllers
Welcome my friend 😎 INAV is a new experience for me and I would definitely suggest using it for long range as I personally feel like my builds are more safe. What’s great is we have the choice to switch at any time if we wish. I’m yet to try all the features like waypoints but I can highly recommend it already
Haha that would be amazing right! I don’t think we will ever get missions on betaflight tho :( not for anytime soon at least but position hold is almost certainly coming from what I’ve been reading 🥳
Great stuff! Thanks Daniel👍 Nice to see more Betaflight pilots tinkering with INAV! What’s next? Ardu? 😊 Until recently, I was strictly Betaflight only for my quads and INAV only for my planes, but now I’m building a SpeedyBee cinewhoop with INAV 7.1 to run missions and go exploring! Happy days!
Thank you 😎 I’m getting back into planes myself and I do plan to visit Ardu at some point! I was always curious about INAV on drones and I’m glad I tried it! Having the right flight controller was what made it a bit difficult, but that SpeedyBee setup is perfect. INAV is about exploring as I say and that Love to do!!
Yes I’m still using it! I’ve actually started using the Radiomaster pocket a bit more these days but if I’m going to be flying in any challenging environments I always take this one for the higher power and peace of mind. And the more precise gimbals
U mean the blue iFlight antenna? It’s not ceramic but it’s definitely heavier than a dipole! U are right I should get rid of it 🤣 the dipole antenna has a similar performance too
I just received my RM "Pocket" (w/ELRS) last week, and I'm very impressed. And, I love that it has 16 channels if I so need. The gimbals are just right for me and the feel is that it fits perfectly in my hands. It's not too big and bulky or too small either. Pair this up with a decent pair of goggles, and you have a winning combination for flying your drone.
Very glad you love it so much 😎 it’s now my favourite radio even tho I thought I’d still be using my jumper t pro I always grab this one! It’s perfect to just throw in a bag and especially if you’re flying micro drones 😎😎 I thought the small gimbals would be weird but I’ve gotten so used to them! Happy flying 😎🥳
You would think it wouldn’t last but I get 8 mins solid each flight on this build. I’ve gotten up to 10 mins once on a super light build and the same 720mah battery. Super low kv motors are the compromise
@@johnsmithe4656 haha yeah the whoops aren’t the most efficient. Having 3 inch 2 blade props are far more efficient. That and lower KV motors are the key ingredients for longer flight time, but the flight performance of a whoop for inside is far more desirable 😎
@@MrPhilbautista the video feed is ok! It is the same as using a regular analog camera as you can only use it with an analog system. You have to make sure the settings are set for PAL and that you are recording in 50P and it looks pretty good 👍🏽
Haha yeah I’ve watched others gps land and it didn’t drop like my first test. BF does land harder than INAV by default though, it can be changed. My drone has very low kv motors for 1s and the hover point is much higher than it expects. I had older videos of return to home too that I wanted to show how bad it was back in the day 🤣 it’s come a long way
Thanks for the nice video :) I see that you also have Literadio 3 pro, if you would have to recommend radio for the beginner would you recommend radiomaster pocket or literadio 3 pro?
U are welcome 😎 I would recommend the Radiomaster pocket! The light radio 3 pro is also a good choice but the switches are not good quality and not smooth. The pocket is a very well built radio for the price!
You’re welcome 😎 Yes I did use 2 18650 and they worked ok but you don’t get the full benefit from them as you’d imagine. I ended up using a 3 cell 18650 that was better run time. But the 2 18650 do work well enough
