Betaflight idle up how to: I changed following parameters: set min_command = 1060 (was 1000 by default), set min_throttle = 1050 (was 1070 by default) and set pid_at_min_throttle = OFF (was ON by default). On top of that, I added an override throttle Channel switch with val=-100 in my taranis and set min microsecond to 1068 on throttle Channel output.

regarding the problem mentioned at 18:50 i wrote a lua script that gives you a throttle warning. Just add the script as a special function to the idle up switch. local running = false local timenow local function init_func() end local function run_func() if not running then timenow= getTime() if getValue('ch1') > -1000 then playFile("/SOUNDS/en/system/thralert.wav") running = true end end if running then if timenow< (getTime() - 300) then running = false end end end return {run = run_func, init=init_func }

Idle-up comes from RC heli's putting the motor at 90% and only changing the pitch of the blades. Back in the day with the first acro quads we would just set our IU throttle curve to start at 10%. Take off in normal, IU in the air. AFAIK "Airmode" is the same thing, and having the motors spin-on-arm is also the same. This seems so much more complicated than it used to be

Justin Pryde airmode on betaflight is reaches much deeper than bumping up the throttle to keep the PID loops active. there’s a lot more going on and, in some cases (full throttle) i think it’s forced on regardless of settings... so there really is likely a noticeable difference between idle up and airmode on BF at least. which is better? i dunno. but dayum i wish BF would let me spin the props to check for bends / damage rather than hand spinning motors like a dope. seriously it would be really nice! i hadn’t even thought of that side benefit.

@TiagoTiagoT 5 жыл бұрын

Doesn't Airmode change the PIDs at low throttle to keep things consistent? Or am I mixing things up? edit: Oh, and also, doesn't it allow the props to stop while still keeping the quad responsive to the sticks, allowing for greater air time when upside down?

@detroitfpv4329 5 жыл бұрын

Idle up and air-mode are actually two different things where idle up is simply raising (trimming) the throttle output level at min stick input, air-mode on the other hand changes the response of the PID controller to input. They can be used together or separately and should not be confused with each other. Especially for those using BetaFlight.

Thank you for sharing the knowledge, I used the video to successfully set up idle up. I'm on Betaflight and like G3R FPV mentioned on the comments below I use the set pid_at_min_throttle = Off command to get it to behave more like you like Kiss. I have tested on the bench and did a hover and I'm liking the fact that I don't get the "air mode" bounce I can just land the quad without any drama.

Mr. Steele, thanks for all that you do FPV! I just switched my kiss v1 alien over to idle up from air mode. i have to say it was a little weird at first, but it is much more stable and dont get any weird drops going from full stick to 0 stick input on the throttle. after flying a few packs like this idk why anyone would want to use airmode. thanks again and keep these types of videos coming.

Good info. From my days as a 3-D heli pilot, I just add a rotary dial to the throttle channel mixer as an accessory throttle or governor. It's not sophisticated like airmode or as convenient as a switch, but it's a super simple setup and is infinitely adjustable while flying.

Ok so Betaflight can also do this if you play with the "pid at idle" setting in the CLI. I tried setting up my gear like you had in that one Snake FPV video a while back and really loved it since. However, I do fly with airmode as I have never gotten "idle up" to fly well. This might just be preference I guess. I do have airmode on a switch so if I don't want to bounce while going under a car for example I can just turn it off, but for the most part I just use this to inspect my props like you explained... Awesome video Steele. Happy flying from South Africa :)

In Betaflight you have a Motor Stop function which should be disabled, also there you can set the min throttle, which usually is like around 1050. Has nothing to do with airmode iirc.

You can add an extra special function that only actually arms when throttle is at zero position, it really complements this setup and makes it safer for sure! This makes it real safe and prevents quad taking off to the moon if throttle is anything more than zero before idle up trigger is engaged. i'll try to post a video showing this tomorrow.

@marshallsweatherhiking1820 9 ай бұрын

Im a newbie, but my idea is using a 3 way switch. Up position is disarmed, middle position is low idle, down position is high idle. The arm function is a combination of either middle OR high on the 3-way AND down on the regular 2-way arm switch. Arming requires 2 separate switches to be something other than down, so its less likely to happen by accident.

@keithphillips1234 Жыл бұрын

Just got out of the drs office getting my finger repaired😂. Setting mine up still and went to arm it in my hand, it freaked out and screamed and chewed my finger up. Was my stupid fault for even considering it, but once armed, it screams, so it needs to be tuned some more.

That whole drag race thingy with the throttle, you can use a few special functions to create a safety feature. So idle up would only work when throttle is low.

@dabit4840 5 жыл бұрын

The 'quad bounces wildly in a random direction when you hit something' is an irritating side-effect of airmode, at least on BF with my flying, eh, crashing skills it is. However, I found that enabling 'crash recovery' eliminates this. Crash recovery puts your quad in level mode for a few hundred (configrable) milliseconds when it detects a crash, just enough to regain orientation and keep on flying instead of ending up in the tree branch next to the one you just hit. Personally I think airmode works better than idle up when not hitting stuff. There is also wind etcetera with which airmode just copes better than a raised idle.

@sorenb.4173 5 жыл бұрын

Idle Up in kiss is something completely different then airmode in betaflight. In betaflight comparable thing is simple the button "don't spin motors when armed" deactivated. That makes your motors spin when armed so you don't stop your motors in air when going zero throttle. Airmode does something different but also does that, so it's more of an side effect. Airmode again is something different completely. Without airmode if you are falling(after you went up high and cut throttle) and give command for a roll, one side of motors gets spun up for example 20% and the other side 20% slowed down. Since you are at minimum throttle anyway it can NOT get slowed down more then your min command (idle motors barely running) and your kwad behaves different on low or nearly max throttle situations. With airmode on, say you are at 5% throttle doing the same roll, one side gets spun down to idle from 5% even if it should have been 20% less, but the other side that should have spun up 20% gets spun up 20% plus 15% to give you same roll behaviour as when you were mid throttle. Basicly without air mode in betaflight, in low throttle situations your flight controller is limited on how much force it can command the escs to keep or change the orientation. Most easy said as I could: Without air mode hover the quad on half throttle and bumping it it will aggressive fight against the bump. On low or min throttle it will fight the bump very tame. Air mode on it will fight the bump as aggressive as on half throttle. On super high powered quads that might not be so noticeable cos 5% up on one side and 5% down on the other will already make you spin crazy. But in any zero throttle situation you should notice the difference. I have aux1 on a 3way switch. Down is off.. medium is armed and high is armed plus airmode. So i can lift off or check the quad with airmode off and it behaves realy tame and doesn't try to eat my face.

@controlflow89 5 жыл бұрын

Activating PID/gyro with non-zero throttle via idle up switch seems to be the major safety issue for me, Betaflight got it right with zero throttle arm requirement. Arming with two middle position switches after failsafe in extreme situations seems to be the safety issue as well, zero throttle + one switch is safer and easier to trigger.

@meltonenterprises6761 3 жыл бұрын

Airmode is something I've been trying to figure out cause people say they use airmode but I personally do not at all like what it does with airmode. My quads take off as soon as I arm and I can't drop down into things cause it wants to fly. Landing is difficult too. I'm hoping idle up with my cheaper betaflight quads will help in dropping down holes and landing.

Bf has "dynamic idle" first thing I thought was "that sounds a lot like idle up but on the flight controller." (in the sense that a lower motor speed is available to the pid controller than the nominal idle speed, a side benefit to idle up if you tune the throttle curve a bit) I always thought the active pid on idle was unsafe. And that attenuation of it was stupid. I thought the best way to do things was to make the pid and mixer see things in terms of thrust and torque. And some features on bf are going that way but then it's a mess of cli without much to alert you that it's even a thing.

Hey Mr Steele. You mentioned in this video that "AIRMODE ON" in quads can cause quads to go berserk when it hits an object. If a quad is configured with "IDLE UP" and quad also hit an object, will quad also go crazy?

On kiss no lol. On everything else. Yes

That Middle switch Arm is confusing to try and translate it to a Tango 2, can you make this video showing the setup on the Tango2 using the left A button to arm, and the right D button to idle up, PLEASE?

why does the gyro not work when the quad is armed? what causes it to work when the idle up switch is used.

First off thanks a bunch, I was wondering how you had it setup. Ever since I got my alien I've improved my skills as though as I've been flying for years. Glad that finally decided to buy something that is proven by you to work Everytime! Thanks Quick question, I seem to can't figure out how to get my audio from the kiss pdb. I'm using your earbud and fatshark dominator v3. Thanks in advance.

@MrSteeleFPV 5 жыл бұрын

The audio comes from the mic on the pdb. There’s an audio pad for your vtx (white cable) if that is soldered on it should work. What vtx ?

@@MrSteeleFPV TBS vtx, I realized that the mic wasn't soldered so I did that but nothing changed. I have your alien 6s build.

Could you accomplish the same effect by adding a custom curve to throttle and set the lowest point to -85 or so?

@MrSteeleFPV 11 күн бұрын

I guess same thing different ways.

IDEA: instead of having two switches, have one switch to arm and idle up, this is nothing new, but the new idea is to have it only arm and not idle up if the throttle stick is not at the bottom. Then you have the option to arm and check the props as well as eliminate the hazard of idling up with throttle up. 1. Throttle stick all the way down and switch is flipped - ARM & Idle up 2. Throttle stick not all the way down - Just ARM and once throttle is pushed all the way down Idle Up is enabled someone tell me how bad of an idea this is before I try it :P

Sorry, i´m not a native speaker, to put your quad in the air you need to switch to middle-position and that do activate airmode or not? that would mean that in the air airmode is active ?
