Trying to get everything running well before the event this weekend. West Coast Throwdown in just a few days !!! Haven't been quite comfortable with Betaflight 4.x yet but spending more time and doing more research, reading github articles and watching other tuning videos. Betaflight 4 is so much different, especially with PID tuning. Yaw Integral values are completely different, as well as yaw proportional settings. I've been experimenting with filter settings, TPA, I Term Relax, Feed Forward, among other things. We are getting there, and hopefully will be running well for next weekend. I was skeptical at first with the BF4.x versions but now that I'm learning the differences and how to tune, it is very cool. I can see where they are going, or at least I'm assuming... We shouldn't need to run as high P and I values, and we have more flexibility with using TPA and I Term relax, so that we can tune across the entire throttle range. But the problem is, we need to learn how to use these features. Can't wait to meet everyone at WCT !!! I'm also working on a last minute backup build, trying to film most of it but running out of time ! https://youtu.be/QPkCjqYcXA4 https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/FireBlade #betaflight #westcoastthrowdown #teamblacksheepfpv #tbssourceone #tbscrossfire #tbsunify

https://youtu.be/KSRVLZb3wzE Second tuning session for the TBS Source 1 build. After the last video, I did some reading and research and decided to update to the new release of Betaflight 4.0.4 I still get worse yaw bounce than in 3.5.7 but seems there are some fixes and additions to help. The Betaflight Facebook group has an article pinned showing some testing data that I'm trying, also working with I-Term Relax settings. I'm going to apply I-Term relax to the yaw axis after this session. I noticed that the default BF settings have I-Term relax applied to pitch and roll only. Handling of Pitch and Roll seems very nice, crisp and clean. Yaw is not very good with the default settings, seems to only issue that I have with BF4. Some FPV tuning after this video :) Thank you Kwad Garage for the great parts and service; https://www.KwadGarage.net Thank you Krazy Kwads for the great deals and fast shipping; https://www.KrazyKwads.net My feeds; https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade Build; TBS Source 1 V0.2 frame TBS Crossfire Standard TX TBS Crossfire Nano RX TBS Unify Pro VTX iFlight Succex TwinG Dual Gyro F7 FC and 4-in-1 ESC iFlight XING 2207 1800kv motors RunCam Racer 2 GoPro Session 5 FrSky Taranis X9D Plus Fat Shark Dominator V3 with FuriousFPV True-D V3.7 #betaflight #teamblacksheep #fpv #fireblade_fpv #tbssourceone #tbscrossfire #tbsunifypro

https://youtu.be/-3jBEWWj8QI Part 1 of a series of tune videos I'm working on with the TBS frame and iFlight stack and motors. I've wanted to do this for some time, finally took the time and effort to film some testing after a new build. This can be a tedious process, so I apologize for the length of the video, and still more on the way... Using Smart Audio with my radio to make changes on the fly, adjusting yaw proportional and integral values in this video. I'm already formatting the second video, should be out in a couple days. Please stay tuned for the giveaway winners, I have some great goodies to give out and I'm about ready :) The Build; TBS Source 1 V0.2 frame TBS Crossfire radio system TBS Unify video system iFlight Succex TwinG ESC+FC stack iFlight XING 2207 1800kv motors blue camo RunCam Racer 2 GoPro Session 5 2.7k 30fps Superview 1250mah 100c 6s packs FrSky Taranis X9D Plus Fat Shark Dominator V3 with Furious FPV True-D V3.7 https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade #betaflight #tbssourceone #tbscrossfire #fireblade_fpv #iflight #tbssource1

https://youtu.be/6oZj_7daZlE Met up with Jesse last Saturday to finish up our long range builds and test Crossfire and Unify. So far AWESOME ! Everything working great. Signal quality is perfect, both radio and video. I'm getting some noise in my video feed but that is either from not enough capacitors, or my VTX placement (might be too close to FC) I have it mounted on top of the stack. We need to go further ! We already have some plans for the next flights, more close follow footage and try to get all the way across the far ridge :) Check out Jesse's channel and give him a follow !! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwdtUUtKJsxG7CkkvdcF0jA My gear; Frame: TBS Source 1 V0.2 Stack: iFlight Succex TwinG dual gyro with 50A 4-in-1 ESC Motors: iFlight XING 2207 1800kv Blue Camo RX: TBS Crossfire Nano 915Mhz 100mw VTX: TBS Unify Pro 5v 200mw FPV Cam: Runcam Racer 2 HD Cam: GoPro Session 5 2.7k 30fps Superview Radio: FrSky Taranis Plus with full Crossfire module Goggles: Fat Shark Dominator V3 with FuriousFPV True-D V3.7 module and ImmersionRC vertical clover and FuriousFPV Poker Chip patch antenna https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade #teamblacksheep #tbscrossfire #tbsunify #betaflight #firebladeFPV

https://youtu.be/uG7T61tVGbc Finishing up a new build with the TBS Source 1 V0.2 frame, and showing some goodies to possibly give away ? Thank you to all of my subscribers, it is time for me to give something back and show my appreciation. I have some really cool stuff that I want to give away to a few folks who really need these parts. Anyone out there grounded right now and need something to get back in the air ? Let me know if any of these items help, and if not let me know what you need to get back in the air, maybe I have something that will work. Thanks again everyone and I can't wait to send out some goodies and maybe see someone use them in a video ! Stay tuned over the next few videos, and we will decide how to choose a home for this stuff and also check out the maiden video for my new TBS Source 1 build. Loving Crossfire and Unify, now must try the frame :) They have a v3 out now but haven't been able to get one yet, and these are under $30, had to try ! https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade #teamblacksheep #teamblacksheepfpv #tbssource1 #tbsunify #tbscrossfire #fireblade_fpv

https://youtu.be/_V9INKKlKJ8 Full run at the Collegiate Drone Nationals 2019 track on Velocidrone drone racing SIM. Trying to get my lap times down using time attack, and enabling ghost mode is a fun way to race yourself against your fastest lap time. Each lap is against my fastest time at the course, continuously trying to beat my best time and better my lines. I really like this SIM, I've tried a few and so far this one works for me. Love using the Taranis X9D Plus with SIM :) Manual race mode !! https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.FPVBook.com/FireBlade #velocidrone #sim #timeattack #fireblade_fpv #ghostmode

https://youtu.be/Xf7jYCP8uNI Getting in some practice time on the sim, not very fast yet but getting it down. Now that I have a nice radio, makes the sim much more fun. I like working with the sim to experiment with rates, trying different settings. Ghost mode is a lot of fun, time attack is a great way to learn the track and practice, and the ghost is my best lap at that track, so I can continuously try and improve. Using the laptop here so the video card is not the best, does fine for a laptop and I will not complain. Getting ready for the West Coast Throwdown in mid August :) Anyone want to share ghost files and race each other's best time !! Hit me up and I will send my ghost files, and I would love to download others and try and race against them :) I have a cloud drive we can upload the files. Comment and I will leave a link https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade #Velocidrone #SIM #droneracing #racedrone #multigp #betaflight #fireblade_fpv #timeattack #ghostmode

https://youtu.be/IAx6vp0eeCg Practicing my two minute runs at the FPV Jamboree in Creswell last weekend. Lots of great obstacles and challenges to fly. The crew did some big upgrades this year at the event, added a lot of gates and other fun goodies in the field. Also removed some trees and trimmed them up, what a great setup ! Weather was perfect, a bit of wind but nothing crazy. Every year gets better :) Check out info on the event at http://www.fpvjamboree.com and http://www.forwardflight.com My feeds; https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.FPVBook.com/FireBlade https://discord.gg/aRagMuJ Discord user: FireBlade#4248 Quad: Frame; iFlight XL5 V3 Motors; iFlight XING 2207 1800kv Blue Camo 4-in-1 ESC and FC stack; iFlight Succex F7 TwinG 50A Packs; 1300mah 120c 6s Blades:  Ethix Watermelon RX: TBS Crossfire Nano SE VTX: TBS Unify Pro 5v FPV Camera: RunCam Racer 2 Goggles: Fat Shark Dominator V3 with FuriousFPV True-D V3.7 Radio Setup; Taranis X9D Plus with TBS Crossfire Standard Module Radio at 25mw and VTX also at 25mw Thank you Albert and Kwad Garage for my awesome TPU parts http://www.KwadGarage.net Thank you Jesse and Krazy Kwads for the great deals on my quad and radio gear http://www.KrazyKwads.net #FPVJamboree #ForwardFlight #Betaflight #iFlight #Hakko #FireBlade_FPV #krazykwads #kwadgarage

https://youtu.be/_1_wdgW0agY Drones everywhere !! Watch out for the mid-air at 3:08 Couple practice sessions at the FPV Jam this year in Creswell. Some practices from Friday evening, right around Golden Hour, or Magic Hour as some call it. Some nice colors and shadows. The guys did a great job with the course, a lot of additions this year. Many more gates and challenges, I love the power loop tower with kiss trampoline at the top :) Weather was perfect too, right around 80 degrees. Had a great time flying with Zaine and Tyson and all the guys, thank you Forward Flight for putting on the event !
