I mean you could just keep your batteries away from your kids but cool solution i guess, but babies eat pennies, and they dont taste good, so i dont think this would work for any kid under 3.
After flying this drone for the past year, I think it’s a little under powered for the weight. It’s great to learn with, but once you start flying more aggressively, it’s a little harder to maneuver. Id say try flips closer to the beginning of your fresh battery, that’ll give you the most power and response, after 30 seconds of flying, voltage sag kicks in and the drone is less responsive. I might upgrade to the X and try a 2S battery set up. Good luck and hope this helps!
I thought about doing something like this over my pool but weaving steel cables through the grommets so I could slide it back if I wanted. Do you think that would work? I would tightening the steel cables tight so I shouldn't get any sag, just curious if you think it would slide back and forth easily? Great job on your project.
Should be able to do so through grommets. Might take a couple people to help slide as it could potentially bind up. Some cheap cable pulleys on Amazon might make it slide easier. Send me your pics/video when you get to trying it out! I’d be curious to see what you come up with!
Interesting. I wonder if the new models are different. Maybe try to control it while flashing red. If it still doesn’t work, try turning the controller ‘on’ and then plugging it in. Are you using the original charge cable that came with it? Hope this was helpful! Good luck!
@@CEEJ-LIFE I figured it out. For anyone in the future, for LiteRadio 3 if you have a AMD CPU it won’t support the controller. You have to downgrade the controllers firmware in Beta Flight. However, if you do this. It will be a different firmware than your drone and the controller will not connect to the drone anymore, only simulation. So you also have to downgrade your Drones version. In short, I returned it and got the Pro with Lite Radio 2. It doesn’t have the AMD issue and all this extra stuff.
It’s a pretty dramatic difference between having it and not having it. When it’s 110 degrees outside it certainly makes it more bearable. Thanks and stay well!
Also a great idea. Wouldn’t have mattered in this application though. Pole bent in a bad wind storm and I address it in a follow up video. Thanks and stay well!
As long as the wind doesn’t exceed about 30-40mph it’s pretty tame. I’ve had a couple days beyond that and I certainly keep my eye on it haha. Rain doesn’t effect it
If you can down by the wire near the rock wall put some yellow or bright colored ties on the cable for safety reason. Not sure if people ride dirt bikes?
That’s a good idea, this area is in a wash and not really a ridding or walking area. But, that’s a good idea and maybe I’ll do it anyway. Thanks for the suggestion!
Critiques 1.) That type of shade material gets really beat up in the sun and will rip in roughly a year 2.) When he needs to replace it, he will need to remove all those tapcons, thus making it not hold after replacing it over and over. 3.) Their is no way to let out the sail when major wind storms are eminent. 4.) The Zip ties will slowly break in the elements, but i guess that is an easy replacement. All these critiques are minimal minus the need to mess with the tapcons. Overall, good project. Looks nice
Ya, the material has baked a little with the intense heat but is inexpensive enough to replace after a couple years I can justify. Tapcon screws are a bit of a pain when it comes time to remove, but with an impact and a little wire to take up excess space, they do the job. Zip ties have for sure gotten brittle and I have replaced quite a few of them. Thanks for your input! Pretty spot on with your observations!! Haha stay well!
Great ideas. Looks like a fun play and relaxation area. I liked how you thought out loud in your description of the construction. I am concerned about your small looking hook attachment at your house-beef it up!!
I live in Phoenix and was at Harbor Freight today, I saw these and I am considering using them in a vertical position to shade a east facing wall and a south facing wall to help cool a room. How have they held up in the time you have been using them?
Surprisingly well. I expected the sun to deteriorate them after a couple harsh summers it they’re still holding together pretty well. I’d say it’s an inexpensive solution to at least try! Good luck and stay well! Thanks!
Haha glad to hear! I’d say just make sure the structures you mount everything to are fairly secure and solid. This will help with the overall experience and functionality. Thanks and good luck!
