Anything will fail safe when you lose an antenna in flight. Happened to me a dozen times, but otherwise, yeah ELRS is amazing, I love it!!! GPS is useless for freestyle, you literally have to change the settings every time you take off to suit your environment, tried it, got sick of it. I personally found more issues than benefits. Run it only for long range nowadays, which I fly rarely. Turtle works only if you didn’t break your props (or motor, or electronics, etc) and they can spin freely. Hope this was somewhat useful.
@@maddercat interesting info and perspective, thanks. Preset warnings is the only OSD I utilize during freestyle flight. The other few OSD elements I employ are checked only on the ground or during DVR playback… Cruising and location scouting is another story. For the couple of GPSed “freestyle” builds I run… After I change the ceramic GPS antenna to copper wires and encapsulate it… it seems pretty durable, but I’m way more gentle on these two. My proper freestyle builds are more purpose built… But I am always open to doing things differently!
Hey tell me the location for this video, your looking at my general area on top of the mountain I have search and rescue drones and one made to retrieve quads. I could probably eventually get at least one of the lost drones back.
@@Unicyle I fly a hglrc sector d5 with GPS. Barnwell has quads with GPS on them and some other freestyle pilots. Often times they don't set up the GPS through beta flight. I did it because I'm normally in open areas
I once found a short conveyer belt that was running. I perched it and it didn't end well in the end of the belt when I fell off. I didn't rearm quick enough before the quad hit the ground 😂 Easy to find though.
Thank God for sponsors....losing 2 quads in 1 day....if I lost both my quads in 1 day I'd just sell my goggles and radio....lmao bubby flues 03 air too so that's go pros and 2 p3 air and 2 complete quads gone
Isn't it safer to just use the O3 footage (If you guys use O3) for these type of risky flights? I mean, I know you guys are sponsored and all, but losing a Gopro with each crash has got to hurt... I wonder if there are people who go to these locations looking for your equipment after you guys upload the videos lol. Also, HGLRC makes a Mini M10 GPS Module that weights nothing and locks Sats in no time, so you can have GPS Rescue ready just in case of a FAILSAFE, or you can also get coordinates in case of a crash. My 50 cents...
As someone who just got his first drone (mini 3 pro) this kinda footage makes you look like a god. It’s also good to know that everyone else crashes too 😂
I have wanted to see a continuous barrel roll around a structure like this for ever. Nice job.
Poor Bubby's LR game seems cursed. I'd love to see an episode where he goes flying with @FalconRadFPV or @VISMAFPV
That false flute in the end is hilarious!
RIP Bubby's kwads
2 kwads were harmed in the filming of this episode 🤣
Uhm... Failsafe with ELRS?
How about GPS return to home?
How about Turtle mode to get the other one back?

@@maddercat do you know this exact location? I’m always up for a rescue mission.
Awesome flying guys 👍🏻 love watching all you guys rip cool spots
SO sorry, Bubby! That's tough. 😬
If I see blue and pink in concrete of building or road, I’ll share the coordinates. ;)
What a ride! I was at edge of seat!
awesome flying 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love from Kush
Sick, that gap was top shelf.
Nice that you are flying with rotor rite peter
How many gopros did Bubby lose?
I think loosing a gopro is alot worst than a quad.
GoPro is a lot cheaper though
Hell ya burning all the local spots keep it up guys!
You guys need the beach version of that wagon. It has wider tires and is a lot easier to pull.
I'm sorry for your lost, your Rx lost.
Underrated comment! ❤
Tearin up the ole gun range.. there's so much there I'm surprised I didn't see more of it.. another video? lol :P
Couldn’t get access to it easily :(
-Bubby
WHy not set the quad to return to home when it fail safe? Especially flying out somewhere as wide open as this.

Wow, nice rattler! Thought about landing on the belt? Well, maybe not top down. Bad luck, Bubby!
Wow, it's a great flight
Fun fun! I would've liked to have seen some goggles DVR of some of the carnage however.
Well Bubby time to build two new ones good thing your sponsored
Sucks just losing one quad let alone two. Better luck next time Bubby.
Just a moment of silence for all the quads ever lost while flying LR
RIP DRONES
Flow Looks Familiar

Super nice contents~~❤❤
Awesome video guys keep it going
no quad left behind!
Does Bubby not record the DVR? Or is it DJI o3 that stopped DVR recoding?? All we see is Bubby talking and DRAMATIZATION.
Dvr sd card corrupted the files 🥲
-Bubby
In the end it's me.

3:54 As everyone's butthole simultaneously clenched
why not using a ViFLy Beacon to try to locate it? Guess it will increase your chances atleast
nice content .
I think that quad might be gone... 😮

RID can help you find your drone when you lose it
Mama said there would be days like this…..#F00kiT
❤
There goes 1600$ 😅
Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Yeaah^^
man LOL, the hole had me jumping up screaming and *we want to see thaat "powerloop" in full, Vanny... ;P*
What an episode 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Huuuuu❤👍👍👍👍
Nice and Early.
F
TWO BUBBY ONE WAY NOWOOP HAHAHAH XD
Vanover: i dont crash (every video)
also Vanover: 2:14
Spoiler needs an airtag..
AirTags only work if they have phones nearby to bounce off which needs to be within 40 feet
I know but...
could send out scouting iphone... @@SBvice
Awesome video reminds me of the old Rotor Riot vids where you fly new locations. This was a great location cheers
love you guys! I just learned the trippy spin in the sim. can.t wait to fly wit cha!
no wonder that first quad is gone when the camera guy runs in front of bubbys transmitter....
Who loves short shorts? Rotor Riot loves short shorts.
😂that ending 🙌
Epic
No landing with take-off on the belt ☹️
Crossfire ftw

wish we had spots like that here....
oh no! (no beeper onboard?)
frist!!!!!
