Testing the new build before the races tomorrow. Using the frame that I won from the Bier Stein whoop races in Eugene. Thank you BikeGuy and BlackCatDesignCo ! Stacked some LED's on the back of this one, very bright :) Will have to maiden in the morning before the races, will be a blast ! Still have the two backup quads that I have been running for some time, charging all my packs. #betaflight #multigp #runcam #blacksheepfpv #tbscrossfire #tbsunify #blackcatdesignco

SIM Racing vs. real drone racing at the SOAA fairgrounds indoor arena. After the races, Casey ManCub built the course on Velocidrone and uploaded for us to try. He did a great job recreating the course on the SIM. My times are almost identical LOL. I really like Velocidrone, it is a great drone racing simulator. We will be racing again at the fairgrounds arena on March 15th, can't wait ! I'm sure the guys will change up the course, and will be good to race at a new track at this same place. Find this map in Velocidrone under the Football Stadium maps, search for SOAA or SOAA Kickoff and you should find it. We will be on the SIM this weekend if anyone would like to join in ! Probably run some of this and some micro tiny whoop tracks. The micro pack is so good !! https://youtu.be/ZcHoklYJ73w https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 #velocidrone #betaflight #droneracing #SIM #tbscrossfire #tbsunify #crossfire

Racing both the Pro and Project Mockingbird versions of the NewBeeDrone BeeBrain. Southern Oregon Air Academy hosted their first indoor tiny whoop race, and many more to come ! Three heats here and we are all racing brushed 65mm whoops. AWESOME course ! so fun, was a bit of a challenge too, not super difficult but enough to keep it interesting. Course was quite long, used four large rooms in this bando building, even through the kitchen and cafeteria. Thank you SOAA and Rogue Leaders for the great event. We even went out and flew some 5" at the race course setup in a baseball field. Was a very busy day and a lot of flying, ran through every battery I own HAHA.

Quick five lap heat at the SOAA headquarters this weekend. After the whoop race we went outside since the weather was so nice, sunny and warm !! Some of the guys brought gates, Casey and Jack brought out the nice MultiGP gates, thank you guys ! After some quick setup, we ran some laps and went for it. Area is so nice and private, soft grassy field and open space. Also some trees nearby that we plan to incorporate in the near future :) Ran some fun laps here with Matt SemeGlass, Charlie and Jack WrongWayFPV. We sent it and had some good practice times. Running my old TBS Source One V2 that has been a workhorse for me all summer, since last spring actually.

Full setup and configuration for both the brushed BeeBrain Pro and Mockingbird edition. Big Thank YOU to QUADFELLAS ! The Pro brushed version comes with an updated FC and ESC that now supports Turtle Mode (Flip Over After Crash) with brushed motors. The Mockinbird editions comes with the BeeBrain Lite board and is configured with props out motor and propeller alignment. I go through setting up rates and modes that can be selected and changed in flight, so you can choose to use "Mockingbird Rates" for angle mode and quickly switch to Acro mode with rates accordingly. Also some discussion on Betaflight and target development for Mockingbird whoop setups, check out their page at; http://projectmockingbird.squarespace.com/ And take a look at NewBeeDrone products here; https://newbeedrone.com/ Check out Quadfellas here; https://www.facebook.com/groups/2050511781897867/ My other feeds; https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 #newbeedrone #beebrain #acrobee #mockingbird #project #betaflight #quadfellas

Met up with Matt SemeGlass at a local football field and setup some gates. It is cold and middle of winter, but we need to practice and get faster ! Fun time with Matt, we setup a number of gates and also used the goalposts as gates, triple gates actually. Split S over the horizontal post, then funnel turns around the vertical posts, works great :D Also the big block of snow near the far gate is intended to be a flag, so pretend that is a flag that we must rotate around. We will get more gates and this coming weekend should have a few more pilots joining us for some field practice. We have a tiny whoop race on Feb. 22nd and a 5" race March 15th. Season is already getting crazy ! Check out some of our flying on Matt's page here; https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcyEYT7tbI9t2eiTg7MH4Sg Can't wait for Spring to get here !!

Final round of qualifying this Sunday at the Southern Oregon Air Academy exhibition race at the fairgrounds horse arena. Casey and Caleb put on a great event, also thank you to Zane Rushi for race directing along with Casey ManCub. Fun round here battling with Zane RushiFPV, he is fast and we were going back and forth all through qualifying. We ran five rounds if I remember right, a lot of qualy but good practice before the races. I qualified well and made it straight to A Mains !! :) We then ran three rounds of A Mains to decide the final standings, was a blast of a race and check the end of video for qualifying results and race results !! I will upload race DVR soon, I did not run the GoPro during the race, just too heavy and wanted a lighter feel. I ran some qualy with and without the camera and the turns just felt so slow with the camera on top. The times showed too, qualifying laps were right around the 30 second mark and my race times were around the 26's and 27 second laps. We have another race scheduled here in two weeks, time for more practice !! Thank you Caleb and S.O.A.A. for organizing and hosting this event https://soairacademy.com/ https://www.facebook.com/soairacademy/ https://www.multigp.com/races/view/?race=19428/Southern-Oregon-Air-Academy-Kick-Off https://youtu.be/gGawBqxiQ44 https://www.YouTube.com/user/JDogB1 https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.FPVBook.com/FireBlade #droneracing #multigp #blacksheepfpv #tbscrossfire #tbsunify #SOAA

Two full heats at the races this weekend, what a great event ! A number of pilots this year, much more than last year. I think we had over 22 pilots that actually competed and 6 full heats at the beginning of qualifying. I'm running the NewBeeDrone AcroBee BeeBrain Pro here with the Nitro Nectar 300mah packs - so nice ! Whoop handles so well, and I put in some good laps, in fact I was the top qualifier for the event ! Won an awesome race quad from from Zaine BikeGuy and Black Cat Design Company. I will be building very soon as we have some 5" races coming up next weekend already ! Such a great time and thank you to all that helped setup this event and thank you to The Bier Stein for hosting our second annual indoor race !! https://youtu.be/BCOcIKrTigM https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.YouTube.com/user/FireBlade #quadfellas #newbeedrone #acrobee #beebrain

Met up with the guys at Cantrall Buckley park and campground in Jacksonville, OR. Fun time flying with Jesse, Damien, Kaleb, Jerome, Nathan, Derek, Justin, anyone else that I missed. And such a great park ! Quick No Edit Run with the 6" bi blade race quad running 6s 120c packs. Built this using an old QAVR frame and put 6" arms on it, intended for some mid range, possibly long range. I picked up a TBS M8 GPS chip to install, hope to soon and then take it out to Jesse's for some range testing. This one has the Typhoon 32 V2 4-in-1 ESC paired with a CLRacing F7 flight controller. The Typhoon ESC does not seem to support bidirectional dshot, so I have not been able to get RPM filtering to work on this unit. However, Betaflight 4.1.2 is working very nice without these features. PID tune is very close to default, increased pitch P and roll just a bit, and using Absolute Control and Integrated Yaw. (which you then lower I term values on pitch and roll, and remove I term from yaw. Also add D term to yaw) Lifted all filters 1.5x according to github, which is working very smooth. I do have Crossfire and Unify all setup, ready for some range. Running the old RunCam Owl Plus 2 FPV cam.

Whoop racing with the new micro pack in Velocidrone, love it ! Great SIM, and the addition of micros is excellent. A number of new maps also for the micro pack, courses more suited to whoops and other micros. The house is great, and this library map is also fantastic. A few different courses in this video, we try two different library race courses. The whoops are not easy ! And the tiny gates make for a fun challenge. Velocidrone already showing some new whoops coming out soon as well, they are working on the NewBeeDrone AcroBee, brushed and brushless versions :) https://youtu.be/GXMaMyopNhU Great fun for when the weather is yuck outside and whoop packs are charging LOL https://www.InstaGram.com/Jason_FireBladeFPV https://www.AirVuz.com/user/FireBlade https://www.YouTube.com/user/FireBlade #velocidrone #betaflight #teamblacksheepfpv #FlightSIM #droneSIM
