throttle limit is actually insane, put it to 50% ,train lines, go full speed, do it again. and pro tip: use a stacksaver, they are like 3 bucks and it will save you a lot of escs/flight controller. well made video btw. happy flying :D
omg dude I have done this to all my quad profiles since I saw your video. This has been invaluable to tame all my quads. Awesome tutorial bud thank you so much!
I built a slow quad for drl simulator and I'm way faster with it on a gp course. I was wondering if throttle limit was a thing, now I know. Thanks for sharing how to get this set up.
I agree with your theories for the most part, especially when it comes to throttle limit, but I think that learning to fly at different camera angles is something you should do early on. In my experience, people that the people who learn to only fly at one angle have trouble adjusting later, which is important if you start to get fast enough to need steeper angles like 55-60 degrees. By learning the mechanics behind camera angle and learning to approximate the required movements and adapt, you gain a skill you otherwise wouldn't be practicing. This will help you go between something like a Tiny Whoop and a 5" race quad with more ease.
Oh, I absolutely agree. I noticed that myself too - as soon as you put enough stick time into several rigs with different cam angles you don’t care that much about it anymore. But you have to get a grip on both extremities, 10 degrees for tiny/cine whoops and 50-60 degrees for racers.
I wondered because this first didn’t work for me with my Tango 2. But figured out why: Tango II XF 6.10 delivers the option to bypass gimbals which saves about 1ms latency. So if you want to use different Throttle Limits over a Switch be sure not to select any mode in general radio settings. It will only work if you select freedom tx like in the past in general radio settings of the tango 2.
Thanks!! I set this up on my TP3, I'm now able to rip in my little yard. SO MUCH FUN, going to set this up on all my quads.. Really makes every setup more versatile! Subbed.
It's not only good for racing - one can benefit from it also in freestyle - if normally not using 100% of throttle - by adding throttle limit the resolution goes up - and it's pretty obvious that with more resolution comes more precision (imagine a deep dive followed by a tight gap)
Brother u r great .... U actually show a way wht I like much and serching ... I saw u also make cinehoop ... I saw yr one vedio of cinehoop so expecting u make ... Brother exactly this problem happen with me ....I don't need super fast drone for race I want a gental smooth flipable movable trunable but fully controled quad .... Yes I wanna make a cinehoop ... Can u suggest me wht bitaflight vertion I need and pid tunes wht modes is best for cinehoop ... Can u pls share yr cinehoop experience with us ???
Hey. Not sure if you have seen that already, but you can find the details of my Cinewhoop setup on the build page rotorbuilds.com/build/20986 One caveat though - my build is rather unusual as it is very light and was put together for carrying a Hero 5 Session camera. For larger GoPros it would be fairly underpowered. I don't have a lot of personal experience with "classic" Cinewhoops, but JB recently did a pretty good roundup on a few of them, maybe that can be helpful for you th-cam.com/play/PLwoDb7WF6c8lphYruuwDNLR4TP0_u3Xaa.html But yeah, thanks for the suggestion, probably my Cinewhoop setup might be interesting to some pilots out there, so I might make a video on it.
Brother really yr information is logical nd easy to consume ... I like it ... Thanks for yr all info in this chanel ..I saw one by one ... For this vedio I hv a condition ....u make a throttle cap switch that's great nd easy nd handy much ....but did u said when we need to chenge cap mean after use 100 throttle at some place I decide to go with 70 % then I need to disarm my quad first ,??????? Can't I apply it during a running quad ? Pls let me conform that part ? If somehow I manage to adjust throttle % at running quad it will be easy more ..... Do u hv any suggestion bro ?
You don’t have to disarm the quad to adjust the limit. If you manage to take your fingers off one of the sticks and turn the knob while keeping the quad in the air - you can do it. The limit is applied in real time as you change the knob position. In the video I disarm the quad to check where the limit is at, and to do that I raise throttle to the maximum and see what the throttle indicator in Betaflight OSD shows. But you can totally do it by feeling while in the air, and if you have a radio with side sliders, like X9D, you can even make it comfortable.
@@ErgoFPV always like a savier (for me atleast ) brother after the pid king of internet I fall in love with u .... U explain to the point ... Perfectly wht I serching for my cinehoop making ....there was a Little info about cinehoop even at 3 months ago also in internet ... I found clearity when I hit yr website nd read about yr cinehoop making ... Awosome explanation .... 4.1 betaflight u use for cinehoop wht is a maximum challenge for cinehoop pilots. ....all afraid to come at 4.1 .....they maximum love 3.5.7 beta... But u dare to go with 4.1 with most logical tunings ....brother i become yr fan nd will reguler follow u ... I also wanna make donut cinehoop ....I m confuse wht should I go for 3.5.7 or 4.1 ( even download donwload 4.1 beta properly is a huge matter specially in vtx ) can u pls suggest me wht should be a good option for me ?
Thank you! I don't think you can make it work on i6X because it does not run OpenTX and offers less customisation options. What you can do instead is use the OSD menu if you run Betaflight 4. You go to the OSD menu by throttle to the centre, yaw left, pitch forward, then enter PROFILE, then RATE, then page down to see THR LIM * options. You set THR LIM TYPE to SCALE and THR LIM % to the desired throttle cap percentage. Then you yaw right to bring the quick exit menu and choose SAVE & EXIT. It is less convenient than a potentiometer because you need to bring up and navigate the menu. Even more, it does not allow you to quickly check what the cap is at because throttle indicator in the OSD shows the position before Betaflight does the capping, so it always shows 0-100% and to see the actual cap you need to visit the menu. But performance wise it is the same, so you can use it for getting better at track lines exactly as I did in the video. Cheers!
I fitted a powerful motor to a light aircraft with a lion battery. Can I prevent it from damaging the battery by drawing too much current with this method? I think even half strength will suffice.
Is there any difference between doing this and just changing your throttle to scaled and 75 percent in the osd under rate profile? I ask because I have a tango 2 with no potentiometer
Hi Friend, so it means that when we set it like the way you do it will set for all the quad we have (only set it for one time), or we have to set it again for each every quad that we have?
Could it be that the knob is not calibrated properly? On QX7 there is a small dead zone at the beginning of the range but otherwise the whole rotation is working. There is a calibration option somewhere in OpenTX menu, I would try it.
Hi, I tried it yesterday and I feel wayyyyyyyyyy better with the throttle. So yeah thx for the tuto. Thumb up and sub.

Thanks, no other youtuber solved my problem this fast and made it this practical (with the potentiometer)!
Thanks, mate. Comments like yours make me think I should start recording videos again :)
Thank you for the fine tuning of the range for the adjustment. Perfect!

I don't race but this will help me stay on Earth with 6s.
Thanks.
.... And start twisting my knob....aaahahahaha🤣
Awesome and very helpful video thank you!

Nice! I will apply it right now!
Why ThanQ good siR... I learnt something today😉
I guess I will be making the shift to 6s soon! 🤪
I have been trying and trying to figure out how to do this. Thank you!!!! You made it so easy. Much appreciated, my friend!
Awesome tip. Thanks
Thank you to share “The secret”.
I just try it and feel more and more love my quad.
Top Video!
Thanks for posting.Good info,clear presentation
Nice technique, well explained. Thank you.
Excellent tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing this.
I had mine on a 3 positon switch, but i like the pot idea! Nice! Thanks!
Awesome! Adjustment in a bliss. Thank you. Keep doing videos like this. Following you now. Thanks.
thanks i hope this helps! it was super easy to set up
PERFECT!
Great video thank you
Man, great tweak...had to sub...so glad to have found your channel...keep up the great vids.👍
Thank you for the tips and tricks. I just found your channel on TH-cam and I like how you present the information.
Thanks once again!
Thank you! There’s more stuff coming :)
A very good video and information. Thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing
Amazing
Excellent
I like this method best.
Cheers
Subd. You got a good way of explaining things. Keep it up!
Hey it's working thanks!

Thx bro. Good video
Thanks. However if I want to llimit the throttle limit even further below (say to 35%) what would the weight and the offset settings be?
Love it. Great tip!!
Thanks man
Great video! Going to test it on the sim as soon as possible!

What would be the values if I want to limit the throttle down to 40 %? Thanks😊
I fitted a powerful motor to a light aircraft with a lion battery. Can I prevent it from damaging the battery by drawing too much current with this method? I think even half strength will suffice.
It should
Hey I got a tracked vehicle with centered stick control with reverse. How do I limit my throttle with a pot?
What would i change the numbers to if i want to have this but inverted. Like make it work the same way but turn the knob the other way

Thanks dude, is your dvr which you run 6S, is that quad's motor 4s motors ?
You’re very welcome! No, these quads are 6S native builds with 1922kv 2207.5 Hyperlite motors.
8:16 the throttle resolution is actually higher
You’re absolutely right :)
@@ErgoFPV no worries!
For me this regulation works somehow strange. reacts only in 1/3 of the position of the knob. Is this rather normal? I have x-lite
Could it be that the knob is not calibrated properly? On QX7 there is a small dead zone at the beginning of the range but otherwise the whole rotation is working. There is a calibration option somewhere in OpenTX menu, I would try it.
@@ErgoFPV ok i will try, thanks
Works perfect after calibration, thanks again :D
You're welcome!
