Oh my gosh! So happy you got the LR40 back safely and GPS rescue kept you in the sky heading home. I think I’d cry if I lost mine. Stunningly beautiful video with the fog over the hills at sunrise. Were you able to understand the why you had the video signal loss? I noticed you also had a momentary failsafe on the control link too. Are you using ELRS 2.4GHz? Thanks for sharing your videos and safe travels.
Hello Mark, I think that I misjudged the altitude because of the fog. There were probably trees between me and the quad or the fog was just a nuisance. I use elrs 2.4 and never have any problems with reception with the Turn LR 40. Internally, I had almost given up on the quad after the goggles didn't show any image for a minute. GPS rescue also only climbed to my maximum altitude and that naturally drained the battery. Best regards and many thanks 😊
@@Andrew_Dai Absolutely right, but I don't just fly the quad in mountainous terrain and often only fly it with a lipo battery in light freestyle. I'm too lazy to adjust the configuration every time. That's why I didn't change the battery warning to li-ion batteries. Best regards and always have a good flight 🫡
@@ermanpehlivan2335 Hey, in principle I would have gone for 3.2 volts, but I knew that the goal could no longer be achieved with that either. If I have a headwind or am high enough with the quad, I turn around at the latest when the battery is half empty. However, neither of these things happened and I was worried that I would not have enough remaining capacity for an emergency maneuver. And that is exactly what happened, i.e. the emergency maneuver At least everything worked out 😅🫡. Best regards and many thanks
@@fIysohigh I was really scared 😅!! I can't tell you why the module found so few satellites. That surprised me too. Thank God there were enough for the rescue, or at least enough at that moment!! Best regards
Wow...was ein geiler Spot und vor allem hammer moment!!! ...und verdammt...ich kenne den moment...sowie das bild stehen bleibt ist der schlüppa leicht braun!!! 😅 hab schon 2 flywoo explorer verloren...und keine wechsel schlüppa dabei...wäre wahrscheinlich eine sinnvolle Ergänzung im FPV Rucksack!!! 😂
Sehr schöner Flug! Hattest du rescue auf werkseinstellug? Wie ging 13:14 es deinem Akku nach dem flug hoffe es war ein li ion, der steckt das besser weg als ein lipo
@@florianricker1633 Vielen Dank, ich habe knapp 2000mAh nachladen müssen. Der Li Ion Akku hat das also gut überstanden😄. Wahrscheinlich besser als ich 😅. Beste Grüße
Thank you for sharing great footage; Great you got back you quad, GPS rescue worked. If you don't mind, could you share with us what type of battery you are using? Lipo or Lion, and it Mah capacity.
@@anotherview1 I think that the clouds partly affected the signal, but since there were also many small wooded hills in front of me, it must have been a mix of everything. Cheers to the efficiency of the quad and the 3000mAh Li Ion batteries 😅. Best regards
@@The-Drone-Guy Thank you very much sir, the quad came towards me via GPS until I was able to take control again and had a video signal. That was a close call 😅
very impressive rescue! I have a Tern with O3 which is my favorite drone, but so far I have not worked out the settings in betaflight 4.5 that trigger/enable rescue either by a switch or by failsafe. Would you post your GPS rescue relevant settings for Betaflight 4.5?
@@3dflyer347 Hello and thank you very much. The topic is very complex, but there are many good tutorials on RU-vid It would be difficult for me to address everything in one comment.I hope you can understand that!?I saw a good video recently, I can link it to you if I find it again tomorrow. Is that OK with you? Best regards
Wow what a flight! What battery did you use? You already drained 1.100 mAh when you deceived to fly back 🙈🙈🙈 and then GPS rescue which did a huge raise in height 🪫.
@@MatzeMaulwurf Hello and thank you very much. I use a 3000mAh Li Ion battery and had to recharge about 2300mAh. So it was a close call 😅. Best regards
@@BigKahunaFPVah nice. I was thinking about 1.500 mah standard FPV LiPos 😂🙈 maybe I should spot weld some 18650 VTC6 together. Still have some laying around to rebuild a power drill akkupack.
@@MatzeMaulwurf You can do that, but I don't trust myself to solder batteries. But I have 4s 1400mAh LiPo batteries and wanted to test them when I got the chance. I just always forget 😅!! Best regards
@@BigKahunaFPV soldering is easy. You just need to spot weld them before. Looks like you are flying in the north of Germany. Komm lang und ich löt sie dir zusammen ;)
