BF 4.4.0 has a bug in GPS rescue that can cause the quad to disarm above the ground and crash. This is fixed in 4.4.1. You should flash 4.4.1, not 4.4.0 like I do in this video. I have confirmed that the Flywoo 4.4.0 CLI dump should work fine on 4.4.1. Just do exactly as I do in this video, except flash 4.4.1.
Just got my first 03 unit. Djis instructions were already wrong about canvas mode. Telling me to enter cli commands that are no longer available since beta 4.4 added the option in the ports tab. Still can't install assistant 2 on any of my MacBook pros, so my buddy has to update all my dji stuff. And now, I find out my goggles v2 delete all my binds every single time I switch modes. Ugh 🫣
sir you do the best videos on youtube. you are clear and precise and get right to the point and you give links in the description to all items in the video...super thanks
4.4.2 is released 6/1/2023 what i did differently Selected flywoo405PRO board Looks like config text for ports peripherals changed, so loading from configs will fail to get osd working. To fix: ports -> UART3 in peripherals -> change from disabled to 'VTX - (MSP + DisplayPort)' Test flight - no issues, gps and sesnors good. Didn't try gps return to home
I also flash 4.4.2 today and no issue with OSD, 'VTX - (MSP + DisplayPort)' was correctly selected but in the OSD tab video format is still Auto by default
Exactly what I was looking for. Nice video 👍🏻 And you might want to change the target to F405PRO. Do not auto detect. Maybe that’s why you got some red lines in CLI
I might be thankn you too early. But this seems to have fixed the loss of gyro, accel with auto detect for 4.4.1 method stated above. I just reloaded my presets from earlier, not too much red, but still some...
@@imignap reloading your presets would be ideal. I’m just following what flywoo’s manual said. Plus, they only have 4.4.0 CLI…so it won’t be 100% correct, but better than losing gyro and accel doing auto detect.
thank yuo very much for these two videos about the flywoo explorer lr 4 with o3, i just ordered it as my first quad and also ordered a radiomaster zorro with elrs and a pair od dji goggles v2, it is a pure coincidence that yesterday you released these videos!! do you have some suggestions on if this build is good for a beginner in fpv that wants to do long range and smooth cruising shots? thank you anyway for anything you are doing!
@12:58 .. wait a minute (!) unless i am mistaken in your “definite guide” to ExpressLRS you used the other .bin file (with the model name) to flash the Rx but in this video you used the firmware.bin to flash the Rx .. so which one is the right one or best to use or am i totally off here? Thanks
Excellent video.... I did something wrong and when I couldn't recover the "dump files" from my old computer.... were can I get those files for flywoo explorer HD LR4 version 1 with caddx vista... Thank you.
Hi Joshua, I've managed to pick one up now and followed your video and all setup. Also followed the video to sort out all the GPS so ready to test that. The only thing I'm missing now is good rates. What rates do you recommend for the LR4 for cruising and filming? Thanks
Just a bit confused here. Is the BF upgrade process shown here for all the current versions of the LR4 or just the HD dji 03 version. I.e. I have the newest analog version 2.2 and am not sure if this update process applies to my quad as well. I suspect that it does but I want to be sure.
Thank you for this video Joshua! Seems like Flywoo has done a good job providing proper CLI dumps. I tried to upgrade iFlight iH3 from 4.3 to 4.4.1 and stuck with no barometer, GPS, Servos and half of settings wiped. Couldn't even connect receiver. Any clues how to do this for iFlight F7 controllers?
Hi I just purchased this drone and I’m new to fpv. For some reason when I connect it to beta flight configuration it says it has flywoo7 firmware at 4.4.3 ( can’t recap as I’m not in front of my pc at the moment) and when I try to flash to fly woo 405pro it says fair to find firmware. And defaults back to flywoo7 4.4.3. And when I try to import the both cli one from beta flight and the osd cli from this video it just disconnects and reconnects the drone and any osd change is wiped. Is someone available to help a noob understand this I want to get it flight ready. I am willing to give some money for assistance.
Anyone buying one should most definitely grab a copy of the cli dump on their site before they remove it. Because just imagine them leaving cli dumps for the previous 3 iterations of this drone available. Yeah imagine that..
@DuneRunner FPV I tried A few times. We forced other target the f745 nano. Then dev were helping me change resources and timing . And always one motor wouldn't work 😭 Maybe if we complain to flywoo enough flywoo will work to figure it out
trying to get one of these working with walksnail and elrs. getting a message say betaflight failed open usb device when trying to go from 4.3 to 4.5 any help?
Just watcged Limon's review of this and was surprised to see it came with BF4.3. I figured that was why you had the GPS weirdness that you did and am glad you are doing this video now! Just started watching and I'm hoping to see that you figured out the issue and showed a solution before it ends.
The GPS weirdness is still there in 4.4.1 - not the disarming before landing, but the pitching back and forward. I read the Betaflight wiki and it's apparently normal!
Would you increase the PID loop to 4khz on this setup te reduce vibration (i have crazy amounts with this quad). And is Dshot higher then 300 also an option?
How do you like the tune on the Flywoo explorer. Is it good? Would you suggest it over the standard BF tune or over any of the other presets you can select? And do you set the esc to 48khz and bidirectional dshot? Sorry for all the questions haha.
Flywoo send it with the ESC flashed with bluejay and set to 48khz pwm and with bi-di d.shot all set up! And their tune seems decent too, although I'm looking to see if there's a tune anywhere for the heavier li-ion packs.
Thanks so much. Love the videos. The blue flashing led on my expresslrs receiver is not blinking, and there is no wifi. The LED is solid red. This is a brand new quad. Can you help me?
Great new content! That was a lot of work to update a few month old BNF. Somebody please sell us an AI bot that will help with set up & trouble shooting. I know what you're going to say, blunty will do it for $50 an hour.
(I know it's been a month, but just in case) you probably flashed the wrong target. For some reason the board might get autodetected as F405 instead of F405PRO or vice versa. Check which one you have a flash the correct one
I want to use 50hz on my LR quad and 150hz on all my other quads. I thought I could bind a model in EdgeTX with 50hz and bind a model with 150hz. But it appears that the packet rate doesnt change with the model. And If I would change a quad and forget to change the packet rate, it could have flight issues right? Because in Betaflight the quad has also flashed the packet rate preset.. Is there a way to make this more easy?
I cannot get my DJI 03 air unit to go into bind mode. There are no lights/red light. The drone works and the DJI 03 air unit is plugged directly to the drone via the ports that it has and not a USB system to my computer.
!!** Just a heads up to anyone trying to get the mag in the WS GPS to work - my BNF ordered in early June from RDQ has only 4 wires connected to the FC instead of 6. The mag will NEVER work no matter how hard you try - BTDT. I'm waiting on a response from Flywoo but this is no bueno for those hoping to run INAV.
Hi all, mayb someone here can help me with my problem. Just got back into fpv n went HD n bought this drone with walksnail n crsfr, got it lastweek n flashed 3.9 to 4.4 firmware n reinstalled the “diff all” file that i save before flashing. Now drone doesn’t recognize tx or anything. Fc led stays red. Not sure what i did wrong, any help is appreciated
Man. This video shows you how to upgrade to 4.4. You searched for, "How to upgrade flywoo explorer lr4 to betafligh 4.4," but then Instead of following the video's instructions, you post a comment saying that you did something else, and now your drone doesn't work. How about you watch this video and do what this video says to do. Like ... honestly I just don't even know what to say. If I read that wrong and you are actually trying to follow the video, the place you went wrong is in pasting back in the CLI diff from 4.3 to 4.4. That's not what the video has you do. It has you download a factory CLI dump and install it.
