FPV Gear

 I finally got my FPV gear on. I don't have much detail about this. I bought a Mobius and am really happy with the results. I moved the battery to the top. I was to large to put on the bottom and my landing gear standoff didn't last very long. I would like to come up with a way to have a permanent Mobius mount.




Failed OSD

I tried to install the Micro MinimOSD but this was not a success. The solder pads ended up coming off and I was never able to get it to work. I was finally able to flash it but it was to late. Maybe I will buy another one later and try again. It really isn't necessary at this point.

Tips for New FPV Pilots

  1. Keep a low camera angle. This will allow you to fly slower and land easier. Once confidence is gained the angle can increase
  2. Start in a big open area. You can fly in small places when you get better
  3. Stay away from people and animals. This rule should be followed by novice to excellent pilots. If you were flying over someone and had a hardware failure, this could put them in danger
  4. Stay away from property like Cars, Houses and Building etc...

Goggles

Here is my Quantum V1's

This works pretty good. I shortened the cables to reduce weight and clutter. Maybe I will get some Fat Sharks some day.
