Re: La porket flight log.
That was a wild ride! Very cool.
It would be cool to see you do a flip through the goal posts. lol

Re: La porket flight log.
Yeah let's put some flight manoeuvres in for Dan to do... Haha... Hmmm, ok. Do a nose dive towards the goal post then flip it as you go through it....or maybe hover inverted.... Haha

Re: La porket flight log.
i that video i was going to go through the posts after one of the dives but bottled it as i pasted it i was at the right height, horizontal gap isn't a problem vertical is a different story but im working on that.
I might try a flip through the posts as long as the entry isn't at 50mph. Quick flick of throttle and flip in theory, damn i wish i was a team pilot i could push so much harder.

Re: La porket flight log.
I think your doing a fantastic job Dan, you have progressed so much in the last few months. And your skills and knowledge with the quad are certainly something to be proud of.....

Re: La porket flight log.
Thanks tony. I live, breath and sleep bloody mini quads, im not sure if thats a good or bad thing.Tony wrote:I think your doing a fantastic job Dan, you have progressed so much in the last few months. And your skills and knowledge with the quad are certainly something to be proud of.....
And wait for the bodge-copter im hoping the thing is near indestructible, Im working on the german theory, of needlessly over engineering it. It would have been cheaper to buy a blackout 330 and ive not even got a the bits yet. lol.

Nice flight Dan.
I've played a bit with rolls and flips but I get more of a buzz out of low altitude high speed proximity flying (and crashing)
The miniquad FPV addiction is spreading.

Re: La porket flight log.
Lol it all gives me a buzz. At the moment I try to do a couple of packs of each fast and low, prox and then acro. In the hope that some day I can string it all together in a nice fluid flight.

Re: La porket flight log.
Its been 9 days since ive last flown, due to the weather. Its dry today but really windy about 25-30mph, but like ive said embrace the wind, and i had an itch that needed scratching .
had some good fun in the wind, heres some fast and low 8's with crash.

The crashed caused the motors too desync so i couldnt fly the remaining 7 packs , i had to come home and recalibrate the esc's.

Re: La porket flight log.
WHOA!!! That was awesome! While watching the video, I was wondering if you crashed into the ground or clipped a goal post. You were definitely tempting those posts, lol. After you got the esc's recalibrated, is the quad "all good" again?

Re: La porket flight log.
apart from all the devastation yesterday i put a few packs through porket, i think this was the second. it felt super locked in after flying the un-tuned B-copter.
