Epic Whoop Racing with HDZero Digital FPV! Mr ShutterBug 2023-02-21 | I took my HDZero whoops to a race at Sumerian Brewing Co on Sunday, and it was a TON OF FUN!

Very cool!Special thanks to Roger Ma, and to Dan an Liz Sugano for all their hard work organizing these events.

Full details here: youtu.be/hufEk1cLG1cI was also flying the Happymodel Mobula 6 HDZero, but I swapped the motors to 25,000KV 0802, and I swapped the battery connector to BT2.0 so I could use my Tattu 300mAh BT2.0 batteries (which are excellent batteries, by the way).Music:"Confidence" by Roman Senyk Music (used under license)

PSA: You new BETAFPV FC could be PERMANENTLY RUINED unless you do this BEFORE plugging it in! Mr ShutterBug 2022-07-04 | Public Service Announcement: Unfortunately this BETAFPV F4 1S flight controller has been shipping with a bug. The first time you plug in a battery or USB cable, it will boot up and permanently alter the gyro chip making it unusable and unfixable! Fortunately, if you have not powered it up yet, then you can save it by holding the boot button to put it in DFU mode the very first time you connect USB. Then, you can flash it with an official release of Betaflight 4.3, which won't have this problem.For more information about the bug:github.com/betaflight/betaflight/pull/11584?fbclid=IwAR00ecXWZrwhV2HwlOGO5cO-81fKNW9888GPrMyEvHdSpa0b2JG7JJ0fgGII hope this helps someone out!

Building an Ultra-Light Digital FPV Camera for HDZero / SharkByte Mr ShutterBug 2022-02-08 | With this new camera, my HDZero 1S Whoop is now just 22.8 grams, and it has the widest FOV I have ever seen on a digital FPV system!

Thanks!- BetaFPV: http://bit.ly/betafpv-shutterbug- GetFPV: http://bit.ly/2Ot4q2K- Banggood: http://bit.ly/2OVcf1rExact parts I used for this camera:- Runcam Nano HD Camera: bit.ly/3yGNVpn- Lens from a Wolfwhoop WT07 analog camera: amzn.to/2XV7g6a- NinjaTek Armadillo TPU: amzn.to/3HA1omLBuild Notes:- Camera: I used the older Runcam Nano HD camera. It has an orange body and a 14x14mm back plate. The newer Runcam/HDZero branded nano camera has a different size back plate (14x16mm) and a different size sensor. I also have the Foxeer Digisight V2. It could work but it is not as light even after you remove all the analog wires because the sensor itself is encased in a thicker piece of glass.- Lens: I like the WT07 lens because it is ultra wide. The downside is that you have to remove the glue to get it off. I used a tiny screwdriver to break through the glue and then pry it off in pieces. There are lots of other whoop cameras with the same size lens however. If it has an IR filter, then it will probably work. Pick your favorite and give it a try (if you're feeling brave enough to modify a $50 camera, that is).3D Printer Models:- STL file for the camera body I used: bit.ly/3oxEWTE- Remix the TinkerCad project if you want to modify the parameters: bit.ly/3GBrWlY- STL file for the updated camera mount: bit.ly/3rL3ZVvThanks for watching!

Can Quicksilver Make Me A Better Whoop Racer? I Want To Find Out! Mr ShutterBug 2021-11-25 | Quicksilver is a relatively new firmware option from some of the same devs who brought you NFE_Silverware. It supports brushless motors and a variety of F4 flight controllers. It even has a nice Configurator and OSD menu system! You can probably flash it onto one of your existing builds, but why would you? For me, the answer comes down to one killer feature for angle mode racing. It can take a hard hit and recover in the air without losing track of which way is up! No more "drunk gyro" syndrome!

Racing the Official MultiGP Qualifier with Digital FPV! Mr ShutterBug 2021-08-18 | It has been way too long since my last 5" drone race, so today I'm trying to shake off the rust and put some times on the MultiGP 2021 International Qualifier track! It's going to be epic! I'm flying a brand new Floss racer with a custom build of Betaflight 4.3 optimized for 500Hz ExpressLRS, plus I get to use Shark Byte digital FPV! I may not be the fastest racer out there, but it's a good chance to put the latest cutting edge tech to the test!My FPV video was great! I've never been able to see the track so clearly! Latency of Shark Byte feels just like analog with a rock solid 60Hz frame rate. Fortunately, my digital video did not cause any interference for analog pilots and it worked perfectly with the timing system too. It's really the perfect thing for racing! I hope they start allowing Shark Byte at all levels of MultiGP racing!I'm also using a custom build of Betaflight 4.3 with a custom tune and ExpressLRS running at 500Hz. Running your input that fast creates extra noise, so properly handling that noise is key to having the fastest RC link in the world! I collaborated with Chris Thompson (Betaflight dev) to get this one dialed in. I hope to share more details about that in the not too distant future, so stay tuned!STL File for Shark Byte VTX Mount:thingiverse.com/thing:4935577Music:"Heroic Feat" by Roman Senyk Music (licensed)Huge thanks Olympia FPV for hosting this event!

It makes it hard to go back to analog FPV on my racing build. More info and related videos below...Fun Fact:This Shark Byte ET5 build got lost in a tree for a few days. I finally found it thanks to my friend Clif who did a fly-over with his DJI camera drone. Once I knew where it was, it was easy to get down. Crazy how well these things can hide sometimes!Related Videos:- Parts and Info about this ET5 build: youtu.be/5sJYGE7f6GU- My 1st Shark Byte build (a Babytooth): youtu.be/YxDOrr-jt40- My 2nd Shark Byte build (a ShutterBug85 Whoop): youtu.be/UgvgwyX5DgIRyan Quellet's Tutorial for the M12 Lens Mod: youtu.be/E1BqN_Ttv44Music:"Sport Drive" by Roman Senyk Music (used under license)

Building an AMAZING Racing Whoop with Shark Byte Digital FPV (ITS SO MUCH FUN!) Mr ShutterBug 2021-05-15 | You wouldn't even know that this "ShutterBug85" build has Shark Byte because the components are contained neatly within the frame. It's my most durable design yet, and it's ridiculously fun to fly around my yard!

Unfortunately every other AIO can also fail. None are perfectly robust.

The one in front needs a smaller head. betafpv.com/products/screws-and-rubber-dampersShutterBug85 Analog Version:If you are using analog FPV, then your performance will be even better because of the reduced weight. In that case, you can mount the FC on top, like normal. You can use the same canopy with any 14x14mm camera, but you might need to adjust the position of the screw holes depending on the length of your lens.ShutterBug85 3S Version (batteries tend to be heavier, but you will have less voltage sag):- BetaFPV 1103 8000KV Motors: betafpv.com/products/1103-brushless-motors?variant=14735142682668- BetaFPV 12A F405 Whoop FC (you will have to remove the motor plugs if you want to make it fit under the frame like I did): betafpv.com/products/f405-20a-aio-2-4s-brushless-flight-controllerblheli_s-v3?variant=34899934347398- Otherwise the same as aboveCustom Betaflight 4.3 Tune:My new tune is a work-in-progress.

DAS Might Change The Way I Race Whoops! Emuflight’s New Dual-Axis Steering! Mr ShutterBug 2021-01-04 | I have a fresh new whoop for 2021 racing. It has updated components and a new tune, but the real secret sauce is a new feature of Emuflight called "Dual-Axis Steering". It's specifically designed for angle mode racing, and it may just change the way I fly whoops! Build info and tune below...Emuflight Tune:Thanks to Patrick Clarke for early access to this Project Mockingbird tune (still a work-in-progress). Emuflight screenshots and CLI commands can be found in this document: bit.ly/2MkaJajDual-Axis Steering:DAS is set up in the CLI. The names of the commands have changed since the time I made my video. If you’re using an older build the commands are called “add_yaw_to_roll” and “add_roll_to_yaw” (as described in my video). If you are using a newer build then they have been renamed to “das_roll_with_yaw_input” and “das_yaw_with_roll_input” respectively. The setting “das_yaw_with_roll_input” means, “when you tilt the roll stick, also make the drone rotate about the yaw axis.” This feature can be set differently for different rate profiles. The recommended starting values are given below. Increase the “das_yaw_with_roll_input” value if you want to do more of the steering on the right stick. Full right-stick-only steering is hard to get used to, but I enjoy using a mix in the middle.set das_yaw_with_roll_input = 30set das_roll_with_yaw_input = 20Drone Parts (If you use my affiliate links it helps me out.

Can this 1S Toothpick Really Carry an Insta360 GO?!?!

Build info below...Note:I post affiliate links when available. If you one of the links to make a purchase, then I can earn a small commission. It's an easy way for you to help support this channel at no cost to yourself. Thanks!Build Info:This is a 1S drone built on the Babytooth frame by FPV Cycle. The drone weighs about 33g and is very similar to the first one I built, which I showed in my video "Building the Worlds Lightest 3-Inch FPV Drone": youtu.be/obns6k1xhIc. The battery weighs 13g and the Insta360 GO weighs 20g, so battery + action cam doubles the weight of the drone for a flying weight of 66g.Insta360 GO:Tiny action cam with amazing image stabilization. It can only record for 5 minutes at a time and will run out of battery after two flights, but it opens up some interesting possibilities, so I have fun with it.

Thanks!The Insta360 GO Camera:- BetaFPV: bit.ly/3id5vbG- GetFPV: bit.ly/32fxulvThe Beta95X V2 Drone (as seen here):- BetaFPV: bit.ly/3gK8CX2The Beta95X V2 with DJI Digital FPV:- BetaFPV: bit.ly/3bmvxqkABOUT THE INSTA360 GO:I just got this camera. This footage came from my first few flights with it. The image quality is NOT as good as a GoPro, but it is cool that it can mount on such a small drone and you don't have to strip it down to reduce weight. A lot of the resolution is lost because it records a full 180 deg and then crops down to the 16:9 rectangle. Also, the compression makes things a bit blocky when things are moving fast. I scaled it up to 4K to get the best compression on YouTube. There is a phone app that lets you change the stabilization mode and even rotate or re-aim the shot (which is really cool) Unfortunately, the PC/Mac software is pretty useless. When I mount the camera sideways (like on this drone) and use "FPV Stabilization" mode, the video comes out sideways. You can fix that on the phone app, but not on the PC (weird). The camera also has some real limitation that you should know about. It only records for 5 minutes at a time, it only records 25 fps, there is limited in-camera storage, and the battery only lasts for a few flights before needing to recharge. It is a really interesting camera though. I'll probably have more interesting footage to show in the future. Stay tuned!ABOUT THE BETA95X V2 DRONE:It actually flies quite well for such a small whoop with an HD camera. I was happily surprised! It was pretty easy to control, but flying really slow is still a challenge. The "pusher" design seem to help in flight, but it can make it tricky to take off again after you turtle in the grass or dirt. I used a 450mAh 4S battery and was getting over 5 minutes of flight time (longer than the camera can record) on gentle flights. Note that the flight time will probably be lower if you use a naked GoPro and the DJI FPV system, but those are options.Music:Catch Me by InfractionWarm regards,Nate
