Much appreciated!

Thank you. Looking to tune out some more propwash eventually lol

Thank you, will do!

Thanks! Here I'm using the dji v2 goggles with a module and adapter.

​@@AlexGFPV Do you have any antennas other than the stock? I ende up buying meteor 65 pro with Skyzone sky04x pro goggles!

@@pablowasserman yes i do, i bought a couple very cheap ones on aliexpress to attach to the module (eachine pro58). The dji ones dont work with the module as far as i know

I haven't had a chance to try the boxer unfortunately. Coming from the pocket to the zorro it is nice to have more resolution in the gimbals but i also kinda miss the short throws. I will mention that the buttons on the zorro feel like they are intended for thumbing (like the switch and button placement), whereas what i've seen of the boxer looks like it would accommodate pinching better. Both will work fine though!

Appreciate it! Definitely felt floaty like the sim did so the transition wasn't too bad. 3.5 is a great size for a do it all quad

Some people start one way and switch to the other and do way better. Pinching is great for control but sometimes i'll let my index finger come off when doing flicks and big movements because its hard to reach the full throws pinching

@@AlexGFPV that's where I don't feel good flying pinch either, I feel like my pointer finger limits my thumb. Also feel like if I had a Zoro I could thumb better or pinch better.

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks 🙏👍

lol that's one way to get the effect - maybe speed the footage up too. What's giving you trouble on the sim?

Awesome! Thank you!

What size are you thinking of going with? My biggest tips would be invest early with transmitter and goggles (like if you know you'll stick with the hobby try and find a good deal on nice ones). At that point I'd get lots of time on the sim and then a cheap and durable setup (whoops are great I wish I had one earlier). A backyard 2 inch ripper could be great too. That being said, if you have experience and want to go straight to a cinewhoop or five inch freestyle quad (depending on your goals) it is possible to do that too, but i wouldn't recommend it to most people.

depends on the day lol, but yes most of the time I do CCW

Thank you!

Thank you! It is the stock camera and tune, yes. I think the the video reception and lighting make a big difference here.

Guess I missed one 😂

The swords look solid too. I love the frame so far - managed to pick it up for 60 so wasn't too bad considering it has a lifetime warranty. Definitely a little pricey at $90 full price though.

I haven't had a chance to fly tryp yet but from what I've heard from others liftoff physics feel floaty and game-like compared to other sims. Hasn't bothered me but it feels "slower" than real life for sure.

Tryp is really realistic, it also has the Nazghul as one of the preset drones to choose for your drone in game.

Good stuff, enjoy! The races can be tricky for sure...

Amen brother! I too shit ton in the simulator but couldn't fly half as well IRL. I think its maily cuz in the simulator there is no risk of quad damage and we freely do risky moves while IRL we don't take any risks

I'll try it out 👍 Jumping from 2.5-4 prop pitch is def making a lot difference too i think

Agreed. That was my conclusion in the end of the video 👍 . The reason throttle played such a big part for me was because of my low camera angle (probably 18-20 degrees), which meant the spin had to be much more aggressive and the quad had to be much more vertical to keep the obstacle in view.

I haven't checked out either VelociDrone or TRYP, but what you said about liftoff definitely checks out haha

@@AlexGFPV I recommend VelociDrone, unless you have a gaming PC, then I recommend both TRYP and VelociDrone. They both handle a bit differently, but they are the closest to reality. I avoided VelociDrone, just because the name sounds stupid, but it as it turns out, it was the most accurate simulator , until TRYP released its latest update. Now they are tied IMO

@@AlexGFPV you’ve gotta say it like Chubs Peterson from Happy Gilmore.., “It’s ALL in the PITCH. It’s ALL in the PITCH.” LMAO 🤣

@@AlexGFPV I’ve been working on inverted trippy spins (not an orbit, camera is pointed straight down and top of quad is angled down and towards the object) in the simulator, but it can only be done in 3D mode. Super difficult

I have one too! That will be very tricky with a whoop lol

liftoff

Thanks! Do you mean reversing the direction and spinning the other way? Or how can it fly facing upwards like that?

Interesting! How much throttle do you usually use during a trippy at that size?

@@AlexGFPV that depends on the angle and the copter size i would guess around 60% with 20° cam angle the higher the angle that less throttle you need it also depends how much of the obstacle you see and how big it is so if you want to have not just the tip that needs more throttle cause you are more tiled back and if its like just a tree that needs more throttle too cause the turn is narrrower i have one vid where i got dvr but its not a real trippy there im at around 25° cam angle and 50% throttle throttle is the value in the bottom right corner kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bNVxga2Et7Kymqs.html

@@bluefpv3263 very true. I'll check it out!

Half of that was for the memes and half of that was common decency - at least I learned how to blur in the process 😂

@@AlexGFPV 🤣🤣🤣 hahaha. Real talk though, liking the frame? Was thinking of grabbing one :)

@@dinosabic5383 Yes I am. I was planning on going with the quadmula siren f5 (regular version not split so I could fit the big stack w/ heat sinks), but it was out of stock. This one ticked most of the same boxes and even some more! Found it for 60 bucks and jumped on it. The only things I wish they did more like quadmula would be front camera mounting (I could pass on the aluminum in favor of lighter weight and more space), and the mounting layout/space/included extras. Everything else seems to be the same or better! Both high quality durable frames.

@@AlexGFPV Ay that is great to hear! That is actually funny, I didn't buy the Siren because it is out of stock atm as well. Still looking for a replacement. Might give the Marmotte a go. Cheers mate!

For sure - especially with freestyle. Thanks!

Thank you! This means a lot

I am, thank you! Unfortunately it’s in pieces atm because I needed the o3 to film with my smaller quad. Time to buy another soon I guess lol.

For sure! I mostly changed the rates because the pid tune from factory is pretty good. I run 880 for yaw, and 900 for roll and pitch (actual rates). I put .23 expo on those and then .18 expo on the throttle. I also turned on dynamic idle and set the value to whatever is reccomended for a 1.5 inch prop. Everything else (besides OSD, beeper, and switches) is how it was from factory.

Five inch felt a lot closer to the sim I was flying, and indoor freestyle probably helped with precision. Though, to be fair, this wasn't my very first five inch flight. I tested the quad out a couple times before this video.

@@AlexGFPV well, ok. That makes sense. Anyhow, nice flying for (almost) first 😊

@@kaskalo2 Thanks!

Thanks!

When I started flying in the fall I did mostly simulator for awhile with a five inch quad, so even though the weight and power feel different after flying micros, most tricks are similar to the simulator I started on. The indoor freestyle helped quite a bit with control too - especially before I got my tinywhoop and was flying 6s in parking garages and buildings.

@@AlexGFPV wow man
