Walksnail Avatar Tips Out Of Nowhere | no GPS fix | Long Range Test | Penetration Test 

Left my job and today Im going to new one. Its a lot better now. The amount of stress build up in the old job was too much for me. :)

Thanks. I'm glad you've find it informative

yes it is! :)

Yes there is.

Its fine now. :)

I havent got the V1 but it looks like the problem is still in v2. Maybe scraping the screws would solve this issue but on my long range quad I really want to be sure that GPS will work as well as it could.

Damn thanks for this info. I do have the problem with V1 vtx (I have to power my FC with USB until I get gps fix and replace USB power with lipo

Mads Tech did a video where he uses a spectrum analyzer which shows the V2 no longer has the interference the V1 had. Of course there are more reasons why interference could happen to include a faulty device or poor installation.

Its on my channel but outdated. I'll make some new one :)

I have done every tests on 700mW, I am not sure if I mentioned it in the video. Probably not and that is a huge fail. But the OSD info about channel is something I forgot there from Analog vtx. It is not the reality because the vtx power on walksnail can be set up only throught goggles and not from FC.

@@VincentFPV Ok, that makes sense.

Unlimited power and all of the mbps you can find.

@@VincentFPV so you would recommend for the 1200mw and 50mbps?

@@farisnazeri9841 I would recommend to use the freedom of changing parameters for specific place. Race mode obviously for race, for some cruising alone 16:9 1080P 50mbps. For agressive freestyle 4:3 720p 100fps 50mbps. Its just few clicks! Use the hw and know the fw ffs!

@@VincentFPV thank for tip sir.

it is always a compromise to where you put the GPS. You can put it in front but it is more likely to be damaged while some crash. You can put it in the back, but it performance will be worse due the interference from VTX and a bit from RX. You can put it on the side between arms, but this will cause more air resistance. I just put it at the back as I designed the frame myself and the back is combined with RPSMA connector holder and third stage antenna fixation. But there were options for mounting it under the Thumb 4k, but I assume that imaging processor from thumb will produce a lot of noise too. And for real I donť mind to shield the cables. :D I was also using coax cable on analog builds to route video signal and even power for vtx after cleaning it with LC filter. :)

@@VincentFPV Agreed, but the M10 GPS is tiny. I never carry a bloody great heavy GoPro, another madness IMO. I guess it's all down to preferences. I'm a retired Design Engineer, so I tend to make custom parts for my quads....🤔😳😏🇬🇧

@@EnglishTurbines I totaly understand. :) I still love to carry the 20g Thumb because the 4k video from it is much better than the avatar DVR.

@@VincentFPV Yes, on that subject, have you had any joy stabilising Walksnail footage using Gyroflow yet?...🤔🤔😳

@@EnglishTurbines Recently I found out that there is almost official lens profile by Hermes and I started with some experiments. The syncing points are really pain in the a** but you can find them and most of the time they are around 120- 170ms (mostly 142). I like autognerate 20 syncpoints and then I delete many of them that are not in the range. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B9y2wsLZeiA.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BeMchRICk5A.html
