definitely a SpeedyBee fan...have full size stack and just finished re-discovering the F7 mini V2 in my Shendrone (brand not labeled on top), have that X frame as well...need to build it out --so much with the gone2hell32...time to KISS it lol or INAV it
Hi painless, i want ask a about my problem. So i cant arm my quadcipter because there is a massage "prearm: battery 1 below minimum arming capacity" do you know how to solve it. Thank you
Check ardupilot.org/copter/docs/failsafe-battery.html and make sure the power module is plugged into the right power input... Happy flying
Realy nice store! I bought some of my equipment there - full SIYI link, AAT, etc. - but unfortunately due to customs & taxes is not always convenient to get them inside EU …such a pitty ! F**king Brexit 😢!
The Big Boy updates are great…. Not that I would need this stuff, but great to see and follow along
WOW this is great for people with disability's and or something different, Great video thank you
Thank you for keeping us up to date!
could the steering knob be swapped to be throttle and the throttle becomes rudder, and the gyro for the other two axis?
Sure.... Happy flying
with the trainer port onboard you could almost fly like a real plane aside from the throttle trigger
Thanks for an informative video. One tip, if you hold the Shift key when hit "Frame" it will turn the laser on at 1% to show you the "Frame" lit up.
@Painless360 Do you have any updates on this unit? I tried searching your video history but no more mentions of it as far as I saw! I want to give it a shot -- did it work?
It didn't work with hobby grade stuff, despite their assurances. Give it away as a prize as I couldn't use it. See my video on a more recent gimbal that does work with hobby stuff.... Happy flying
That's brilliant indeed! Thanks, Lee! 😃 This is definitely going to be useful! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
This looks like a better solution than the hack video but if I remember correctly, launching was a pain for him. I guess autolaunch could solve that 😅
That's what I would use... Happy flying!
Just the handicap capabilities are Endless….
UHU Por is not UV safe, but might outlast most airframes. CA is generally too brittle, although the penetrating is great for soaking into Balsa.
could you not run an extension and stick it to your cap?
That could be possible! :D
Can you use it for a plane as it is a gourd transmitter
Yes, as I discussed in the video... Happy flying!
3rd axis for yaw should get you all the fixed wing controls and would work with copters too. Stay tuned for version 2.0
This really is a handy bit of kit, making it so the handset orientation is another set of inputs (look ma, no hands!), and works great. Regarding your own project, you may want to check out one of Ivan Efimov (Limon from BetaFlight)'s recent videos ("Easiest DIY Motion Controller for FPV using Betaflight"), as he has been playing with the MT12 and using a flight control for it's gyro/IMU, feeding it into the handset using SBUS. Was able to get pitch, roll AND yaw that way. Could probably just as easily using the headtracker project, but that could be a new use for an old/otherwise gathering dust FC.
Thanks. His are some of the videos I was referring to. This gyro opens up the radio for lots of additional uses... Happy flying!
Hello. I am a new user of cube orange. I have a question. Can you tell me please why servo doesn't work? I am using futaba s14.
It could be a lot of things - check out my builds aimed at new users on the channel for things to check. Best of luck.
Aa friend of mine drives an RC buggy one-handed with a conventional radio remote control. In mode 1, it uses the throttle axis to manage the throttle and the aileron axis for steering. The handle spring is activated to have forward gear by pushing the handle and the brake and reverse gear by pulling the handle. This takes a little practice, but it works very well.
Hi, we are developing a Blade Runner style roadable VTOL flying car called Sky Chaser, and have developed a working 1/6 scale foam board model. It looks and drives like a car, and flies both vertically like a tricopter drone and horizontally like a twin engine flying wing, with double rudders and double elevons for control. In addition it is amphibian, and both navigate and take off and land in water. Functionally it is a tilt rotor flying wing design with 2 tilting motors in front and a stationary motor in back blowing thrust through a hole in the back of the wing. It functions the same as the Xiake800, and uses ArduPilot for the flight controller. We have also built a full scale 200 lb unmanned prototype and have begin n testing it. Our goal is to develop a manned vehicle and are looking for partners the help develop it. See my icon for more info.
shame its not 3axis with some filtering
Does that addon disable the "steering wheel" on the radio? If not then some clever extension (like maybe ziptying a paddle extending from the wheel) will allow for fully controlling 4 channels with one hand, trigger finger for throttle, a thumb or something else for the yaw and tilt/pitch for those two. Interesting to see, i could imagine using the gyro functions for controlling a camera gimbal in a FPV ground vehicle.
No, adds two more inputs...
Can it use to controll drones Like DJI gyro handle?????????
Answered in the video.. Happy flying
Hi Lee, Great video and information about how to get the gyro working on your MT12. I miss my single stick radio, I am disabled and don't have much movement on my right side, so I started flying with a single stick radio. Last one I seen was a TARANIS radio. Unfortunately I talked with FRSKY and they decided not to make it. Thanks again for the video and information on this radio.
Did Ivan develop it?
Developed in-house at RM. Has been in the works since the initial MT12 concept, just finally made it to market. It's more limited than what Limon came up with, as it is using the accessory port at the bottom of the radio, which can only read two analog inputs - i.e. the two-axis joystick, the two 2POS switches (although it technically should be able to do 3POS) and now two axis 'gyro'. Limon was using the trainer sbus, thus was able to feed in all three axis from the flight controller.
@@pfeerick Thanks for the detailed information 👍
@@pfeerick A while ago I thought about controlling a plane using the head tracker on my goggles, but I haven't tried it yet.
Brings back the single stick radios from the eighties. This must be great for hand launching models with no flight controller, especially if you - like me - can't master the left hand throw.
First comment 😄
Thank you for sharing
Want to do this but cant find DFU interface
See pinned comment... Happy flying
Thank you, this worked like a charm. In the case of the T1, I actually prefer two identically coloured lights over a 'scale' red/green setup. The latter has a practical purpose for full scale pilots in busy airspace, but not so much in RC.
I just got one and the vtx video keeps cutting in and out anyone have a idea what t happens when it gets hot and it still happens when I fly it
thanks so much! First 100% understandable explanation!
"i don't know where do they expect you to put the receiver" WHO KNOWS!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 As always great video!!!!
Hello Lee. I have been using this on my OpenTx configuration without any problems (since you last helped me) but having spent the last two days trying to help a club member configure his system I have an issue that I hope you can resolve. His transmiter is a Radiomaster TX16s MkII running EdgeTx v2.10.1 and the telemetry is all being received OK. I can only find one set of iNav Telemetry files to download (the same one I use for my OpenTx configurations) and that has installed OK on his EdgteTX transmitter but although the basic widget window is displayed a lot of text is missing. For example the gauge headings are not displayed, and as soon as the GPS gets a "lock" the GPS coordinates vanish (displayed in a colour you can't see ?). Do you know of a solution to this, or have I installed the wrong iNav LUA telemetry "system" for EdgeTx ?
Check for an update to the widget. Some older versions won't work on the latest EdgeTX. Please let your flying buddy know about my videos too... Happy flying!
Thanks Lee. He has watched a lot of your videos but this problem stumped him, and me so far. So far as I can tell I have installed the latest version of the iNav script.@@Painless360
Then delete and rediciver the sensors... best of luck
Hi, I have a question. I have the iPhone 14 Pro Max. I'm not a professional, but I really like editing and recording videos (especially real estate videos). I want to use Gyroflow to stabilize some shots because even though I use a stabilizer (Hohem), I feel that in long shots, the walking is noticeable, and in the orbit-type shots, some movement is noticeable. How can I record the gyroscope movement? Because the iPhone doesn't give me the necessary data. I have an Insta360 X3 camera, does it help? In this case, would I need to set the same number of frames on both and the same resolution? But is there any issue when switching lenses on the iPhone (from normal to wide-angle)?
Lens profiles are selected once before rendering so you'd need to have lens profiles for all the settings. Ideally gyro data is needed to stabilise, but the latest versions have the option to stabilise footage without. See this page for iPhone docs.gyroflow.xyz/app/getting-started/supported-cameras/mobile-phones . Best of luck
@@Painless360 Thank you very much for your reply 👍🏻
Tell me, does the internal resistance of the batteries show correctly or is this function not accurate? :) I need to test the wear level of batteries at my work. I can, of course, do this with a special device, but it’s more convenient right away while charging. Thank you.
I wouldn't trust the reading to be super accurate as the same battery can read differently on different chargers.. Happy flying
