Martian II FPV Camera Angles

In case you’re wondering, since it’s not stated in the manual:

The notches for setting the FPV Camera angle are 15°, 30° and 45°.

There you go, Internet, now it’s documented forever 🙂

I fly 30° personally, since for freestyle I think 45 is too fast and 15 is so incredibly slow, you’re almost not moving forward at all.

Have a look at my FPV Freestyle Videos on YouTube if you like!

Shopping furniture

The other day wanted to go shopping for furniture. But what’s that, they are closed on Sundays!? Well, then let’s at least rip their parking lot a bit.

Ripping around: GIANT CHAIR EDITION!

This video is more than overdue, i procrastinated editing and uploading it way too long.

This was filmed almost 3 weeks ago, we had a lot of fun and a lot of damage while flying around our local XXL Neubert (you get overpriced furniture there, don’t even ask).

First few batteries were just me ripping around the parking lot, then Daniel killed his Eachine Lizard 95 and the girls were getting hungry. Side note: Never go flying with hungry girls, unless you have no more than two batteries with you. End side note.

Anyway, then i decided to finish my last battery at the giant red chair that was standing around (it’s like 30 or so meters high, at the very least), but i did **NOT** scout the location enough and overlooked the number one enemy of every miniquad pilot: WATER! TO THE RESCUE!

Equipment used:

  • Martian II 5″ Frame
  • F3 V4 AIO Board from Banggood
  • Racerstar 2206 Motors
  • King Kong 5040 5x4x3 Props

FPV Miniquad Vert: Practicing Rolls, Flips Powerloops and Split-S

Today i went out to practice some trick combinations with my 220mm Martian II Mini-Quadcopter.

I know, you pros out there maybe think i’m still shaking a lot and not always staying in the flow, but isn’t that why you practice!? 😉

I’m into flight models since 2016 and into FPV miniquads since Feb 2017, so bare with me! Still, I think i made quite an improvement within the last 4 months 😉

New video: FPV Training Playground

Just me doing some FPV training at the local playground / soccer field.

After I finally got used to flying acro mode, i decided it’s time to raise my rates, lower the d, raise the p and add some speed to the quad.
I think have to practice smoother movement though… 😉

FPV Picnic and building the Wizz racequad

Yet another video is out, as you can probably see our flying skills constantly improve. In the meantime i’ve also been building a new quad, this time without tilting arms, a “regular” racequad on the Wizzard 220 frame.

Here’s the new quad in the building process:

How often can you crash your FPV race quads in one weekend?

We went out to fly,  and this time there really was a lot of crashing involved. That’s just the way it’s supposed to be if you’re learning to fly, I guess. Especially if you’re trying to pass things with as little distance as as possible, flying proximity, and if you max out the physics of your race quad with rolls and all kinds of stupid maneuvers.

Nuff said, video’s out, enjoy!
