How To Do Power Loops | QUADCOPTER TRICK TUTORIAL 

haha but have you mastered full speed to ground 4 point simultaneous motor contact upside down?....it was so glorious I quit the hobby for three days

sigma power loop

+Tom Coffel (TC) glad it's helpful.

+Russell Nelius thanks!

+Kevin Duquette lord knows I mess up enough tricks.

+Gostfalcon FPV Please feel free to add the whole playlist as you feel appropriate.

Done!

Thanks!

+sasquad da'great I'm definitely having fun!

Thanks for the helpful videos, much appreciated. I have a QAV250 with a Naze32 rev 6 running cleanflight. I tried the Seriously pro racing board TWICE and both boards took a crap. The are now referred to as seriously crap boards around my house, and I'll never go back. I wish I knew more on how to tune this naze32 board as it does some weird things at 3/4 throttle and yaw. I'll search youtube for how to do proper pid settings, as I am sure that is the problem. Peace Josh! -Bill

+sasquad da'great hydra has great ideas for boards but his hardware seems to have issues. Too much smoke for there not to be some fire there.

Agreed my friend, looks as though the serious flyers in our community are going KISS boards and the flyduino route.

Not true at all. Luke Bannister won Dubai on Betaflight for example. I mean, I haven't taken a survey or anything... I know that Steele and FGA are huge fans of KISS and they talk about it in their videos. But how much that reflects a larger trend, I don't know.

+jonesy400011 split S is already made ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CyhEUMpFoyA.html.

+Ultimatevapor918 thanks. It was a really fun day.

I hope I dont lose my baby when I attempt this tomorrow at the lake lol I should be good though famous last words

Well, it's a matter of feel and personal preference. The higher your full-stick-deflection rate is, the more expo you need to make the stick manageable around the center.

It's been a long time and I honestly don't know.

+Anna Sarah Krämer Fazendeiro I don't.

I'm sure you can. I just think it cuts the back side of the loop short.

Yes you can hold throttle whole the time that keeps the momentum which is the real power loop as people do LOS. Actually the best way to learn what is going on is by flying LOS....you can see what is going on. with fpv your more less blind during the move

Kancho!

I definitely agree about LOS! I was shitting myself when trying to learn power loops in the "tunnel vision" of FPV (especially when looking up at the sky). I tried it LOS and quickly learnt how the quad behaved during different stick movements and just how much room for error I had before hitting the ground :) I've been doing the same with inverted manoeuvres as well.

Yeah it's all got to do with camera angle. If you work your way up to 60 degrees you can see more of the path your quad is traveling and you don't need to let off as much....right Joshua?????

Practice stunts in the simulator first until you feel confident.

@@JoshuaBardwell nice man Would you not recommend power looping with Cinewhoop or it can be done?

Sure you can do it.

@@JoshuaBardwell Cheers mate!

+Dean Thorton Sure! But the results might not be what you expect since yaw and roll rate are not the same.

+Chris13FPV Yes.

+Tooth Pain if you were to do that the copter would lose control

Joshua Bardwell you definitely don't want to drop full throttle otherwise you will lose control but do bring it down to about 10%

All multirotors have at least a six axis gyro. Without that, you just couldn't fly at all.

+Joshua Bardwell well, technically, only 3 axis is mandatory. But I don't think you commonly find anything less than 6.

+Joshua Bardwell I've just bought a vortex 250 and I've been only flying with smaller quads line latrax alias. I'm pretty confident when flying with those quads at 100% rates so I'm eager to go bigger/more power

+Janmichael Grant I don't think the battery is what's making or breaking your moves. Possibly you could use more power, in which case any good 4S would do you.

Pretty much, yeah. Horizon lets you do flips and rolls but I don't think it will be great for this type of gradual move.

+Ikii Hisada you can try it. It depends in how tight a loop you're doing whether acro mode mode kicks in.

+Jamie Knight you need to be in rate mode, yes. I run Betaflight on various boards.

43.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MclZFLNG234.html But the command line utilities don't work any more with Betaflight 3.1, so you have to use the BB Explorer export webm video feature instaed.

Airmode should always be on in my opinion. Otherwise you lose authority when you go to zero throttle.

thanks man

+MatthewD'ArcyTheLad air mode is on top of acro, not instead of it.

i think i understand what you mean. but anyways you're flying in air mode then right? not any other flight mode

That is a pretty open ended question. Can you be more specific?

how do you set up your throttle curve for stunts. Like what are your points and percentages for low, 1,2,Mid,3, 4 and High.

Linear. Completely linear. I don't like throttle curves because the hover point of a copter is different for every copter, and what battery you're running, and whether you're running an HD camera. I just want a linear curve on every copter.

Josh does this mean you use the same radio and radio setup for many kwads? I expect this means your radio always delivers the same instructions and let the kwad show its colors? I am just learning and wonder if I can keep binding my frsky taranis to new (frsky-ready) kwads and try them out?
