rrweather commented on a Build, Rekon 10 Pro - DJI O3 - BH 3110 900KV - 6S   Apr 12, 2025  

Have you noticed any jello in your footage? I flew mine down a mountain yesterday and at low throttle settings, the footage from my Action 4 was awful. I worked with Brian at PID Toolbox to tune mine so the low quality footage was surprising. At higher throttle settings, the footsge is great with no jello. I'm going to fly the same flight with a GoPro in the next few days and see how it looks. I know there are some folks that have had issues with Action 4s and 5s on drones. I may also try Master Airscrew props. Not sure what else I can try.

Sorry for the late reply. The DJI action cameras seems to have trouble with vibration and jello, so if you switch to a GoPro I am pretty sure it will not have the same issue. The current tune that I am using is the present on Betaflight for an 10 quad and it seems to be working well. Make sure you have enough weight on the quad. Meaning, when I took my first flight with a 1800mah 6s lipo, it did not handle very well. As I added heavier batteries, it seems to be flying smoother.

You were right. After I posted the question about vibration, I threw an old GoPro on mine and the footage was smooth. Looked like an entirely different drone. A few days later I went to fly and forgot my GP batteries. I had the Action 4 with me so I put it on and flew. The footage was just as lousy as before. Even the footage out of my O3 looked terrible. Weird how bad anything DJI is on this drone. Oh well--I ordered a new GP and I'm good using it. I'm using a big ass Lithium Ion pack and it flies great.

I just put the Master Airscrew props on mine. Also 3d printed a GP mount that should be much sturdier than the stock mount. Haven't flown it yet. Will be interested to see if there is any difference.

I'm jealous of your GPS/Antenna mount. I'm using SMA antennas but had to make the stock mount work. I am not well-versed with designing stuff in CAD.

Thanks for the reply.

Hey, was wondering if you could share the tune (diff all) for this. I've got one thats a bit squirelly as well, but you seemed to have tuned it out pretty well. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Well, how about some screen shots, would that do? https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1F6suznLbGY9dmM4pzle_F1eCIDYegxIS?usp=sharing

Let me know if this helps!

hey hanks for the tune. it works perfectly on mine! a bit different from yours but the concept is the same. this one is a 5 inch with a small tail. the battery balances it.

miszczuq commented on a Build, Toothpick HDzero AIO 1s   8 days ago  

Hello, very nice build. I also love 1s 3" platform and I was flying analog version for a long time but only when hdzero released AIO I build babytooth with one instantly. Now it is even better! Do you mind sharing tune? I am not the best at this and I am using one that is quite nice but maybe yours is better. Canopy also looks great, if it is not a problem I would like to try it too :D

Thanks for sharing! It flies much better on your tune. Amazing job

Could you share battery stl also? I am tired of using rubber bands, because battery eject often

reymontes commented on a Build, HDzero AIO Whoop   8 days ago  

nice build
I'm having issues with the aio5 and 30gkv motors hovers perfect as soon as I get aggressive on throttle falls out of sky😪

Davidpe   8 days ago 

I would be happy to look at your tune. What esc firmware are you using?

And give me a run down on your components.

One other note. There was a known issue with elrs on the HDzero aio5. Random failsafes. The new elrs 3.5.4 has apparently fixed the issue. That was an early April update.

Jeremy257 commented on a Build, Fractal 04 Air   9 days ago  

Slick, I have all the parts and planned to do the same. Thanks for showing the way with the Matrix FC! :) How hard was it to remove the HD plug from the AIO? Did you snip the corners off the 04 air unit like you did on the FC?

Davidpe   9 days ago

Thanks! It's a tricky build but a lot of fun. the HD digital port was easy to remove however I decided not to use the pads underneath and instead use the TX4/RX4 pads next to the removed HD port. I also used the 5v/ground pads next to the removed HD port. Just for simplicity of soldering.

I did not snip the corners off the 04 air. In fact, I ended up not really needing to snip the FC corners.

One other thing I changed. And I need to post some updated pics. I rerouted the ORT antenna to the as to not interfere with the battery leads.

Spyguyy commented on a Build, LiL'Matey 2 Walksnail   10 days ago  

hello matey pilot. I love your build. I've been looking for a action cam mount just like yours (the base mount). do you have an STL file for it or know where i could get one? thanks !

Hello Mate,
Hope you're well. Was wondering if ye might share the tune, even that you've likely scrapped it? Any help is appreciated, Mate.

ZKingFPV commented on a Build, Toothpick HDzero AIO 1s   11 days ago  

i have all of these exact same parts for this build but i was worried about the escs not being able to handle the motors. How is yours doing? i bought a beta fpv 1s 12 amp aio and i was thinking id run it and the eco vtx with the lux cam at a pretty big weoght penalty. but if this is holding up for you id much rather just use the AIO 5.

Davidpe   11 days ago 

No issue with the ESCs. I now have two of these same setups and have flown 50+ flights pushing them hard. As noted in my comments, I've built many of these Babytooths with the same configurations. I have a few that I've flown many hundreds (maybe thousands) of flights with the 1s 5amp ESCs and they are fine. I've personally never blown an esc on this setup.

ZKingFPV   11 days ago 

awesome news im sending it then! as far as the tune goes are you running whats already on the aio or do you have one? i literally have this exact build same frame, motors, props and all. i just have everything soldered up to the betafpv aio but im swapping it to the aio 5 now.

Davidpe   10 days ago 

Custom tune. Happy to send it to you.

Nice build!
I just built a similar one based on hdzero aio5, rci 12025, GF 75mm. I did throttle scale, as It does overpower the fc a bit.

ZKingFPV   11 days ago 

how much of a scale? im thinking about this same.build, i think i seen your build on here too.
