Glenn, Happy Birthday and congrats on the retirement.. Your ARWP look and fly great. You are all ready for Marc to destroy your wings.. 🙂. Your flying site is beautiful...
Thanks, I was really pleased how it turned out and it did feel good to fly. I have 3 ARWP’s for Germany now but will have keep away from Marc in the air. I am very lucky to have that flying site and everything looks beautiful when the blue sky and sunshine appears.
If we install inav radar I can see you coming and escape 😀 Had a great birthday, slight hangover. Looking forward to this years so much, August not that far away now.
Happy Birthday for today and hope you have many more years of retirement doing this brilliant hobby. Great footage and hope to see many more flights from you in the future glenn. 🥳🍺🍺
Cheers Greg I have plenty of time now to do all the things I enjoy and am looking forward to travelling to new places to fly and meeting fellow pilots.
Happy birthday for yesterday Glenn and enjoy your retirement. Love the camper van and a good idea. Fun times ahead. If your down in Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire let me know. A few of us have permission from a farmer near stevenage to fly. Be good to fly together. I have a pro and so does my mate. Think my motor is 1500kv and flys well. 👍🏻
Hi thank you it has only just started to sink in that I dont have to get up for work anymore and have so much more time to do the things I enjoy. I would love to come down snd meet you guys. My email address is on my channel profile. If you drop me a message we can exchange phone numbers and arrange something.
Hey Glenn, happy belated Birthday and congrats on your retirement! Nice footage as usual. Always like your flight videos showing you don't need super LR to have loads of fun.❤ I have a question. Why did you have to change P and D values from the default? Was it because you reinforced the wings and replaced the elevons? This is the first time I saw someone had to change anything apart from the default FF.
Hi, thank you, into my second week of retirment and I am loving it. Yes I believe that the extra stiffness of the elevons plays a significant part in why the stock P and D cause it to shake at higher speeds and when pitching down in particular. I am no expert so cannot give you a definitive answer, all I can say is that I do in flight tuning until it feels as stable as possible and flies how I like it.
@@bluefish3607 good to hear. hope for a lot of fly videos!! Congrats again. It's interesting how simple elevon improvement, without changing the airfoil profile affects the PID.
@@mpsaeris1855 Yes I am surprised at this tbh. Just got back from a setup session with 3 AR Pros with balsa elevons and they all have the same pitch wobble on stocks PIDS and feel a bit tight. Not sure if the balsa elevons being a little widerr were connected to the wing and / or the servo covers have any effect. Anyway for me it's how it flies and I go all three flying really nicely with a consistent feel.
Could you please share all your FC settings for the AR Wing Pro - would love to know all your pid values and auto takeoff settings etc. Just building mine now and its so hard starting from scratch... do you have a git hub account or something where you save all your stuff ?
Hi Roy, with regard to my setup I would not advise using that as a starting point because my Wing is going to be different in all sorts of ways to yours most likely. You will get far better results if you use the stock inav 7.0 settings and then perform an autotune, autotrim and autolevel once you get in the air. I use the continuously trim servo option in the config tab switched on so I don't actually have autotrim as an option but it is entirely your choice. In terms of Autolaunch my AR is quite heavy at 1.65 kg so I use a 1400 idle launch throttle and 1950 launch throttle. In terms of the elevon setup I have about 3-4 mm of up elevator at 1500 neutral position in inav but a stock plane would be slighly less say 2mm should be fine. In terms of max throws I would aim for 10-12mm for a stock plane. Here is a link to a video made by my friend and inav guru Marc Hoffman. Although its not based upon the current version of inav, the principles still remain. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vdhg54bsiEM.htmlsi=ZmrkvnEc4dnGm6Ci I hope that helps Roy, good luck with the maiden and enjoy your AR Pro.
Hi I arrived at those values just from in flight adjustments and seeing how the plane feels. With the balsa elevons and my 800 - 2200 servo throws I get very bad pitch vibration in fast dives. So there is no science behind it for me I just adjust the values until the plane feels fluid, I don't like too much FC intervention so I have the values quite low so the plane feels a little looser than stock PIDS but I am a pincher and have a very delicate touch on the sticks which allows me to compensate. Thats the best way I can describe it.
Stock is fine, I fly quite aggressively and fast and thats when the balsa elevons help. Try stock and if you feel the need you can easily upgrade as I did.
hehe there is alot of protein and fat in flies :D. Be carefull not to get to lazy and fat in that comfy fpvchair :))) nice flight! about to maiden my heewing f01.
I am trying to lose weight and have managed to lose 30 pounds this year so far and protein is an important part of my diet but I prefer to be dead before I eat it 😂 Best wishes for your maiden 🤞
@@bluefish3607 You are absolutely right, they are not all just feed foward. Now you made me doubt the premiere of my ar wing since I was going to leave integral roll 10 and integral pitch 15 as recommended by Pawel. According to your video, instead of uploading I should lower the PIDS as much as possible.
On the other hand, I would like to know why the autolaunch is not even in a vertical line, does it have to do with the way to launch it? How many degrees of CLIMB do you have? thanks!
@@fpv_wing I find with my setup and balsa elevons I need to lower the values P I and D on pitch and roll. I find it easier personally to do the PID tuning in flight and feel immediately how the plane responds when I change the values.
