I got the chance to try out a pretty decent radar gun recently. TIME FOR DRAG RACING. One of these copters went 99mph.
The contenders are:
T-Motor F40III 2700kv running DAL Cyclone 5045×3
* https://goo.gl/PSfR1d
Foxeer Datura 2206/2700kv running DAL T5050x2
* https://goo.gl/YhdQxY
Returner R2 2600kv running DAL T5050x2
* https://goo.gl/bto9Sm
All of these are on different quads an different weights. Yeah… that’s not fair. This isn’t a competition though. It’s just good fun.

I really expected something so small to have a lot of inaccurate numbers and missed reads, but it was really solid the whole afternoon.

Awesome Joshua! Always great content!
Joshua I got a quick question, the other day my mrm Reaper using the mrm mantis flight controller on 3.2 armed as I picked it up didn’t do too much damage. But what can cause that?
squeel squeeel like a pig

The same thing happened to me on my Commander googles I kept picking my friends quad up and yet it wouldn’t find mine. Very frustrating
2 things to comment on today.
Firstly, I agree about the commanders, I literally 3 hours ago couldn’t find the band of my quad, it was set on A2 but the goggles detected it as something completely different, no idea why.
Secondly, I had a thought about how the fatsharks don’t show anything on-screen, is that not the receivers job? The receiver outputs the video, the goggles just display it do they not?
The receiver should be the one adding the OSD to the feed before it sends the video to the goggles. If that’s not possible then it’s going to mean fatshark goggles are going to need some form of data connection from the module to be able to know what channel they’re on ect.
Which makes me think we may see a new connection type coming up soon for the modules. Just a shower thought though.
That evil genius laugh lol!
Good clean “watch this” kind of fun. We all been doing that since we were kids on our skateboards, bikes and everything else we can make go fast. Cool for sure
Hi JB, loved the video! How do you get the quad just to shoot straight? As Whalen i do it ? It just wants to go straight up in the air not straight in front of me?:( what am I doing wrong JB?????????????
Finally, correct use of a radar gun.
