Betaflight 4.3 | Should you use the RPM Filter? 🤔 

Just finished a cine whoop build and installed 4.3 with RPM filtering. I just disabled and flew 2 packs in my backyard then enabled and flew 2 packs in the front yard. I don't get it cause I remember how much better it made my race kwad on 4.2 ... but for some reason I like the cine whoop without it. Just looked at the 4K video also and it proves that it wasn't just a feeling... the video is better... not sure why... but dropping it for now.

I've finished races with props so chewed up I was amazed the thing still worked, I think I'll stick with RPM filtering.

I just tried sfdt only with a wider frequency range of 100 hz to 700hz and it flew better than rpm filtering on my 4inch freestyle

based on the graphs that bobble when you drop throttle is pretty low freq. Since it's tied to throttle I wonder if antigravity is too high pushing the system momentarily into oscillation. I dont know how AG works these days so Im speculating here

If you listen closely, you can hear the sound of FalcoX falling into irrelevancy.

"To RPM, or not to RPM..." and sugarK blows a gasket. Just kidding Zak 😘

1 of my quads the rpm filter drains my battery fast and gets real hot turn it off quad is fine same settings on all my other quads are fine different esc though speedybee bs heli 45 amp

I destroyed 3-4 motors and possibly the ESC today after I enabled bidirectional DShot and the drone brought the motors to 100% throttle on its own in a disarmed mode. I explain it in my new video. But i have not flashed my ESCs with BlueJay. Maybe this was my mistake ?

Another great Video. Thank you for all your help and support.

My gut is saying my f4 flies better on 8k8k dshot 600 and sounds better than 8k4k dshot300 with rpm. Imma tune it further and really see because it's a tanq frame I'm gonna try learning 3D with and already turtled enough to start making 3d printed armor.

Love THAT Overlayed blackbox😎

to me it looked like much less propwash without rpm.

Hey... thanks for the vid. I was wondering - where do i get Betaflight Configurator für Android in v10.8.0 like in your vid???

🙌🏽🔥Quality content! I love BF 430 defaults and this is part of the A/B testing I don't have time for, but wan to do, and the meaning quick flight analysis. Dare I say... I learned something today and it's been a while. 🤓 Jumping to the detailed analysis flight. Considering #patreon for real as I want this info sooner than later😜Thank you for sharing.

Pretty interesting comparison, Mark! Thanks a lot! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

pardon my ignorance because i'm just now delving into the weeds of tuning. But wouldn't you want RPM filtering for freestyle as well. I know that I, and many other freestyle pilots often fly pretty rough props whether that is because you are cheap (me) or you need to fly back from a crash. wouldn't those extra vibrations be amplified by the D term and cause poor performance and oscillations?

Do you recommend using Bi-Directional Dshot on BF 4.3?

Oh and my answer to the question…antigravity. It’s when you chop throttle and go to zero and that’s when it does it’s job so it’s gotta be too high maybe?

Makes me want to try SDFT!! Which nightly did you try this on?

Should I use bidirection dshot for racing

@4:15 Why didn't you give the notches more range to work with?

Low (zero) throttle oscillations - may occur on higher esc frequency. Recommended to go back to 24khz (that helped me at least)

That's why I turn off antigravity.

Prius almost got a quad though the window! Good save! Good Vid! AG off?

Idle speed?

Does 4.3 have presets?

RPM filtering is still my preference

Where do u find it ? Want to try but impossible to get it for some reason can t find it

anti gravity I'm guessing need to be lower like exactly 12 :)

That motor noise is quite bad...

when it will be release, why always a teazerrrr

Or too long a vtx antenna and soft mounted

Isn’t t 4.3 still on nightlies?

There ain't no BF4.3. It's a myth. A long running myth - but nevertheless - just a myth.

Antigravity

AG
