Get Perfect Yaw Spins the EASY way! 

Smart thinking!

Nice tip, but the gyro only measures the rate of rotation. I think you meant the accelerometer, which needs to be enabled (freestylers sometimes disable it) and calibrated. 👍

​@@kandredfpvits the other way round..😊.. accelerometer measures rate of change, gyro measures the angle where its at.when u in acro mode u mainly using the gyro,and that is how beta flight calculates the drones flips on full scale deflection,or any deflection.. accelerometer helps in angle and horizon..u dont ne3d to disable anything.the betaflight and fc combo is smart enough to know when to use what

@@captain-22 did you Google that before you posted it? Because it's wrong and misleading. 😊

@@kandredfpv i am pretty sure u use the gyro to calculate the camera angle trick, not the accelerometer..the accelerometer only measure linear acceleration..in fact accelerometer can not detect yaw..

I've outsourced my editing, makes a big difference!

Glad it was helpful!

You're welcome!

Welcome! Glad you found the video useful.

Very cool solution. I like it!

Same. My sensitivity goes up by a factor of 3 and max rate by 2.3. I have to see how things go. Currently they're 100 and 500 respectively and would go up to 310 & 1172.

I just tried this method, and it was deffinitly way too twitchy

@@starsstripesjacket Good to know. I was wondering if anyone had tried this and what the results were.

not sure if it works like that since the relationship isnt linear is it? i cant wrap my head around it rn i guess i go test it later in sim normally i fly with yaw rate lower than roll so this would be quite a change so more expo on yaw would be nice

I think you match the expo.

sssssssssssssssbang!

Chris mentioned this doesn’t work well with angles

​@@jiatan_fpv you mean in the osd? still hard to hit perfectly but thats a good idea i might try that out :D

I run 45 on everything because I race as well

you would be very supprised how many ssssbangers are using below 25 degree angle :] @@Maxhotgo

:) I feel it would be the opposite: Yaw = tan(d)* Roll ? :)

Yes you're right. 👍

thanks!

Also set the calculator to RAD instead of DEG.

@@gentlesfpv what no you want deg or are you messuring your camera angle in radiant?

Try calculating it in DEG you'll get sth like 0.009 instead of 0.58 for 30 degrees of camera angle. You would still put in 30degree camera angle.

@@gentlesfpv oh my bad if you put the deg*(π/180) you convert to rad you can leave the "*(π/180) and use deg instead so it would be tan(30)=0.58

Yes, that works in conjunction with the FPV Angle Mix mode, which as far as I know does exactly what he’s proposing here with the flick of a switch (so you don’t have to fly these goofy rates all the time).

Thanks for the feedback! The right balance of weight is a key challenge I find so always good to hear what people think about the current solution 👍

@@ChrisRosser i love the frames by the way i have a v2 analog build thats at 248g with 850mah 4s and 1404 3800kv xing2 and its a really good quad, my v3 has the wasp link kit and 1408 motors otherwise same stack and battery its 60g heavier but the more power makes up for it, but it crashes harder so the durability increase is welcome, been flying the v2 for about 5 months atleast now i think, and the v3 for 1 month, and i managed to break 2 arms on the v2 so far in really decent crashes, after a ton of abuse, and i cracked a top plate because of the counter sunk screws and i cracked a rear and middle bottom plate things again because of the counter sunk screws. so the v3 i got from cnc drones without the counter sunk holes and it seems ALOT more durable, plus then its overall beefed up a bit, but now its heavy enough to sheer the m2, its a tough balance and we expect so much lol they blow my mind how you can beat them up and they just keep popping up and asking for more lol, i love my 2 little rippers! but ill avoid frames with counter sunk holes for the rest of time lol so iflight cuts of your frames will only be in a pinch cos cncdrones shipping to australia is a bit slow sometimes

Replacing the Carbon one? I don't know, seems like a challenge for vibration and resonance because it'll make the motor mount much less stiff.

Thanks was thinking of turning it into an Octocopter

Good eyes. Yes, those are the AOS Supernova 2207s and I can't wait to tell you more in the next little while...

changing the camera angle in BF doesn't change any flight characteristics, i think its used for gyro data and some other stuff.

@@genericfpv Nah you are misinformed, it mixed in roll with yaw input so you can turn more easily

@@JustInTime0525 thank you. Quick google and changing angle doesn’t do anything but under modes enable mixer and yes it does, consider me educated! I did some tuning and the guy needed me to get angle right for black box tuning. So yeah you original question is interesting 🤔

Best place to learn, like any trick, is in the sim. If you do a full 360 or a 180, you don’t need to be perfectly level to make it look good either. Use the horizon or an object to try and find where your camera needs to be to stay level. Just takes practice. All the best pilots manually coordinated inputs for about every trick. I’ve been using lower rates, and it’s taught me to coordinate even with simple rolls. There’s no correct way in this hobby. So however you get the job done and you’re happy with how you video looks, go for it. Just my advice.

@@Greg__K if you lift off and dont change pitch just do a 180 roll and you get your horizon for a perfect inverted yaw

realistic way to do inverted yawspin is to flip upside down so the horizon is in the right place (your fpv camera is level) that way you just need yaw input. it takes quite a bit of practice to get it down. important thing is, that you give yourself enough up momentum, ideally you want enough momentum going up that once you are upside down your slowing down to make it look like your hanging, so the way and turn back right side up to catch yourself. if you get it right it looks like you have huge hang time

This makes it easier to get a flat inverted yaw spin.

It depends a lot on your camera angle and rates, I think. I fly 30-35deg and 700deg/s on roll and pitch and I like it. If you're flying less than 30deg the yaw multiplier gets too high. Of course we could also reduce our roll rates rather than increasing Yaw.

@@ChrisRosser I use thumbs, so these higher yaw rates makes my obviously poor yaw technique very visible 🙈

I cover how to set KISS rates near the end of the video (in Betaflight but the process is the same)

Nice! I guess i should have watched to the end. I hear Betaflight and my mind just wanders off lol! Thanks!@@ChrisRosser

Witchcraft is more for d-term smoothing

😂👍🤝

It's SCIENCE MORTY!
