The GPS Rescue crash is caused by a known bug in BF 4.4.0. It is fixed in 4.4.1. I confirmed that the Flywoo CLI dump for 4.4.0 should work fine on 4.4.1, so you should upgrade to 4.4.1 not 4.4.0.

@scbartschi Год назад

I had the exact same thing happen with my Chimera 7. Tried it twice. Disarmed at 10-15 feet above the ground twice. Thankfully the grass offered a good cushion for the fall so nothing broke. I'll try out BF 4.4.1.

@_burd 8 месяцев назад

Another cool thing about this little drone is if you attatch the arm braces on with tri props and something like a 720mAh GNB battery you can definately use it for freestyle and the light weight means you hit the ground with less force, meaning it can survive a surprising amount of abuse for something designed as a lightweight LR cruiser :) You can also run 1500mAh 4s GNB lipos for a solid 12-15min flight times. Your punch-out will be affected, of course, but that can be a good thing when learning- not to rely on 'left stick go brrr' to fix your mistakes 😅

Long time LR4 owner (home built, almost identical spec w/vista and crossfire. 177g dry) 1. hate those buzzers 2. the cheap gps just take a while for first lock after that you are good 3. mantra to repeat - always get a lock before you take off 4. be gentle with Dave C frames, they are about the lightest in class

@sakfpv8444 7 месяцев назад

I still fly the OG explorer, I pre-ordered it the minute I saw dave_c announce it, with the caddx tarsier V2. Only thing I've changed is the vtx, for a rushfpv tank mini (800mw). Your review of it Joshua, was and is the single best FPV related video there is. They happiness that came through when you were just flying around was really awesome. And it's not a freestyle quad at all, but with a 650 4s, I still get around 6 minutes of flowstyle through the trees, or in a parking lot. With a 1100 4slipo, I get around 15 or so of cruising around the intercoastal. I keep telling myself I'm going to post all the footage I have...but when I do have time, I'd rather be fishing, flying, or hanging with my lady, the pup and our baby.

@digitalgrumpybear Год назад

Got mine last week and it came with a ND filter 4 already mounted on the O3 camera. Not sure if it's standard or I got lucky and someone forgot to remove it after testing the quad before shipping. Good to know that the 4.4 CLI should work on 4.4.1. I had one instance on 4.4 where the RTH direction was weird and the quad was flying sideways trying to get back home. I usually never let it land by itself.

@bjbeck11 4 месяца назад

Been eyeing this quad for a while, but went with the Emax BabyHawk 3.5” O3. So glad I did. Plenty of power and been bashing the snot out of it. Holding up great. If cruising, I’m getting 9min of flight time with 850 battery. BabyHawk for the win, awesome sub 250g drone!! The BabyHawk will do it all.

@chriscflint Год назад

I have tested GPS RTH extensively on my channel and in Betaflight 4.4.0 it does disarm too high in the air and could as in your case result in a broken quad. Betaflight 4.4.1 has added a few lines of code that appear to have this sorted. Bucking when returning can be smoothed out with settings.

Hi Joshua, at the time of filming and or the test flight the sun had spewed out a large CME. It was in the “ severe” category. This causes problems with GPS lock among other things. Perhaps try again and you may see more satellites lock in. Love ur videos! Keep up the good work.

@CDRaff Год назад

I have an older(v2 I think) analog Explorer LR and IMO an 850mah lipo is the sweet spot for performance/range/flight time. I can get about 12 minutes which for the speed it flies at is good enough to get about 2.5-3 miles out and back with some room to push it if you want. It also stays light enough to do some acrobatic cruising if you want which makes it a really fun flier for a big park. I should mention this is flying with a Caddx Peanut on board too. I have a couple of the 3000mah li-ion packs for it, but they have been moved to fixed wing duty where they work much better.

@Imakilln Год назад

Try the GNB 1100 4s HV 60C Purple series - Same weight/maybe bit lighter than a regular 850 4s lipo but 250mah more! Great for cruising around!

@gammagonad1657 Год назад

Ok, so think I might have been one of the ones who said that I have gotten 12 sats inside(near a window) almost instantly. One difference in my build is that I had it up front, no where near the O3 unit. It was a micro and I didn’t even use the provided foil tape. As far as settings, I have found that setting my “STAGE 1” settings correctly. #1 the aux channel with angle mode in the range so that it’s activated, and then #2 the throttle to say 1300-1400(a little higher than hover throttle, to pop it up out of trouble). For such a heavy battery you might want to adjust. Same thing for throttle in stage 2 RTH. Make sure that the hover is higher if running heavier batteries is going to be the norm. Adjusting these GPS parameters are very important for a smooth RTH. I’m not sure about it disarming in mid air lol. It might have something to do with the hover throttle minimum needing to be higher. Ground speed adjustments is also helpful to get it back faster. With these few parameters adjusted I have had very good results with GPS RTH in 4.4. It has saved me a couple of times already. One thing that I did notice is that the quad that I had the GPS antenna mounted on the back like that, acquiring sats did also take a bit longer. Hopefully YOU learned something today(so satisfying to say that to you of all people😉)

@SimplyGod100 Год назад

Hey Joshua great video as always, I'm now thinking I need a quad like this on my fleet!😅 I got a question for you, how worth do you think it is to get the goggles V2 right now, since we kinda know they're dropping support because they won't work with the mavics 3? I'm asking because I got a crazy good deal on some gear and I now have the HDO3 walksnail goggles, and I'm loving them, but you know they are as fast as a snail when it comes to updates and I can't stop wondering if they'll ever make something to compete with the o3, and so I was thinking of selling my analog goggles and try to get a pair of DJI goggles V2 to do analog for the quads that are still running analog and to test the o3. Do you think that's worth it or I shouldn't even bother to do so?

@pbshooter100 Год назад

I got the analog version a couple of weeks ago and am loving it. I also bought the frame kit for $35 and now have a full set of spares if I break anything or I could use it to build a second LR4 with components of my own choosing. I also purchased a baro/mag board for $10 which should allow the addition of a compass and a path to loading up iNAV on this 4 inch beast lol. Edit: also forgot to mention that all the stl files for the various TPU mounts, guards and other bits are freely available so you can print your own set in whatever color you desire.

@misturarica7519 Год назад

I think I got pretty lucky. I am flying a 5" with BN220 GPS and it locks up to 14 sats or more, often. It does take around 3 or 4 minutes to lock onto 6 sats on cold start but hot start it's like 5 or 10s. I also tested the RTH with no problems at all, but I didn't let it auto land, I re assumed control when it was arriving back at home point (BF 4.4.0)

@erv5890 Год назад

My 5 inch Five33 Switchback has the insides even tighter and I still always get 25-30 sats with a bn-220 which makes me think that how close the components are doesn’t really affect the performance of the GPS.

@weiq1887 Год назад

Received the quad several months ago. The RTH performed weirdly from BF 4.3.x to 4.4.1 (btw, the BF firmware target name was changed from 4.3 to 4.4). The link quality of the O3 unit & goggles 2 with original antennas actually is not as good as the air unit & goggles v2 with lumenier antennas. Love this quad, however there are some thoughts here. If long rang is the priority, 7 inch would be better (for this one, liion battery pack is required for long range, then the weight must be higher than 250g); if sub 250 is more important, some stronger frames would be better.

@techdaemn Год назад

Quick question.. Did you ever land and reset the home point (which includes the launch alt) after getting sats? I didn't see the fly time reset (indicating disarm/re-arm) which suggests it set the home position somewhere in the sky..

@milfordkd Год назад

In my experience the biggest factor in how many sats you get is the position on the quad. Cheap or expensive it's mostly the same. I really don't know why manufacturers put them under the vtx antenna and power cables, they create so much interference. Better GPS modules will get more sats eventually, but stick a cheap BN220 on the arm or above the vtx antenna and power cables and you'll get 15-20 sats very quickly, instead of struggling to get 6 on the ground. Honestly it baffles me as to why BNF companies keep making this mistake, and then people think the GPS is the issue.

For this size and weight its weird that they did not put the nano version of their m10 gps. It can run on 3.3v and it's amazing. I've never seen 30sats on such a small gps. And i can plug a type c to type c to my phone, run speedybee app and see my satellites numbers without a battery, and once I get the amount of satellites that i want, i plug the battery, go to odd and reboot the FC (to re enable msp) and fly, you can also remove the USB and it only takes like 10 sec to get all the satellites back. Also you if you have an aio, you don't overheat the video transmitter, and in some cases the Esc. The nank gps is a game changer since it's smaller and it means less TPU usage for 3d printed parts, so you save like 2-5grams of weight, for a light weight quad, it's a lot.

@Galileocrafter Год назад

10:20 I mean, you're flying around while the GNSS is still trying to lock. I'm surprised it even did. For the next time, let it sit for a few minutes before flying, the lock will be much faster for the subsequent power cycles of the GNSS.

Had mine for a couple of weeks now and loving it. Came with an ND8 installed which was a nice surprise. Upgraded to 4.4.1 with the CLI for 4.4 straight away and have had no issues. I also have the V2 Vista version and can confirm the GPS on the new o3 version is definitely a lot quicker and better. I have had a strange turning dive and the repeated braking when testing RTH, nice to know it's not just me I guess! But I will try adjusting RTH throttle and speed settings to compensate for heavy li-ions as suggested in another comment here. Mine managed to land smoothly about 2 feet from where it took off. Think I'll be installing my arm braces to be safe after watching this - I've had a few knocks and tumbles but no breaks yet!

I've been attempting some beginner freestyle and been crashing a lot, whether thats me or the quad idk😂. Looking to upgrade to a 5" freestyle quad soon!

@KOrnhOliO1 Год назад

Bro, sorry but freestyle and what this quad is actually capable of doing are two different things. Please help yourself enjoy this great hobby of FPV by getting a "real" quad that is actually capable of flying freestyle. It'd be impossible to learn freestyle with a quad that handled like this and has so little acceleration and cornering ability. I suggest you buy any quad of almost any size that doesn't have the letters LR in it's name. A 3 or 3.5" will still keep you under 250g, but perform on a completely different level. 😎🤘

@CalebAS Год назад

@@KOrnhOliO1 I don't think that's necessarily true. With a Lipo this quad is quite capable of some basic freestyle for someone new to fpv and it is nice to have less power to make throttle control easier and crashes less punishing. I have quite a few hours on a sim with more powerful quads and am about to start building a 5" freestyle quad but the explorer was a great first quad for me.

@@KOrnhOliO1 well scooter britches your dead wrong. This can definitely do light acro and allows a beginner to get the coordination necessary to advance on to a 5”

Especially with the smaller batteries

16:29 Just because it had a lock at the home location doesn't mean the position was accurate. Be aware of foliage cover, you're right next to tall trees here. Foliage cover, houses or other stuff blocking and reflecting GNSS signals lead to multi pathing and multi pathing leads to an inaccurate position. Source, am a land surveyor I use RTK GNSS stuff for the living.

When discussing the quality of the footage we saw versus GoPro at 18:16, this video seems to only include DVR from the Goggles 2 or Integra. I think some on-board SD footage would have been more appropriate for that comparison.

Yeah that's the kind of head to head I'm planning.

Here is my O3 video with Gyroflow and colourgrade in Davinci Resolve. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-whhlHg2r0L4.html

Which is the better quad: Nazgul o3 Vs This drone? And do they both go long range?

@JoshuaBardwell Год назад

They're completely different animals. Nazgul O3 is a 5" freestyle quad. Explorer LR4 is a lightweight long range quad. Neither is better. That's like asking whether a sports-car is better than a bicycle.

I have well over 100 packs on my V1 explorer. I have only broken one arm due to it getting stuck in a tree, knocked it out, and it dropping 60 feet. I installed the braces before the maiden so maybe that has helped mine be so durable. I have two of their 18650 packs but 95% of the time i fly with a tatu 850 4s. I get 6-8 minute flight times with that and it does flowy freestyle pretty decent. I just used your link to get the walksnail version and an O3 version without the O3. Thinking about adding hdzero to that second one just to try it. I highly recommend you get a new arm, add the braces, and rip it with the 850mah.

GPS signal processing is all done on the GPS module. What goes through the wire is just digital communication at pretty low speeds. It either works or doesn't. I don't see how shielding would improve anything.

@JoshuaBardwell Год назад

The wires act as antennas and pick up electrical interference which affects the receiver.

Also I find if I leave my cell phone in the house I lock 10 sats instantly. And go up to 27. (Or it's from rapid battery changes cause it's still warm ??? *shrug*)

My crux35 can fly for 15mins on an 850mah 4s, it can aparently handle an 1100mah, i know its not far but i flew a km out and came back and still had 4v per cell!
