Autosave to mine Tiny 6. Now i love it, tnx Joshua 👍 Its all thanks to you and your passion for the hobby. Winter here, snow and cold or rain and slush so indoors is the only option this time of year.
I got the RTF Geprc Tiny Go and this is a "Go To" video! My lil guy in auto level would drift forward and a touch to the left. After using your video, it is damn near perfect, many thanks. I come from "collective pitch" helicopters. Not very good at it, crashed many times. Many tail-booms, skids, blades and such, I have become very good with repair and mechanical setup. Out of the 21 helicopters, more than half can hover like GPS and the rest do need a tiny inputs. All of which is done in agility mode or as it is referring to in the quad world "ACRO".... Calibration and trimming in the quad world is easy with the stick method. Consider me a fan, thanks again.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! Yesterday on my first time ever flying a quad I panicked and the quad got stuck in a tree about 15-20 meters above ground. Of course I had disarmed it and now it couldn’t arm because it was stuck in 90degrees angle between some branches and the tree was to big to shake it down. LUCKILY my friend had seen this video and remembered your tip on how to recalibrate it with the stick command so it again could arm and with a bit of twisting and props chipping away it came down!! Lucky ending!! Many thanx from Sweden!
An oldie but a goodie. I didn't know about this but buying the BetaFPV LiteRadio 2SE ELRS version. It doesn't have trim buttons like every other radio I've ever had. That forced me to find this, which is really the "right" way to trim a quad. Futher the LiteRadio doesn't have model memories, which is fine because I have all my Whoops use the same settings... except for trim, which again this technique solves. Thank you!
Hi Joshua! I've been thinking it was my fault to not being able to hold my tiny whoop in place. After watching your tutorial, I realise that there is a fix to the drifting. You saved me! Thanks a lot!
This couldn’t have come at a better time! I’m rebuilding a quad for a fried who likes to fly in angle & horizon, and I had now idea how to fix this outside of the stick trims, but I figured that would mess with my endpoints. Thank you!
I really don't want to be one of those guys but if I may... Other things I would check when a quad is drifting before I trim would be bent props, trim settings on the radio, and sticks centered (1500) in BF. Heck, even a battery on crooked or not "evenly placed" can cause drift or what appears to be drift, especially on a micro. This stuff may or may not be present but if it is, all the trimming in the world will be for nothing if you don't fix them first. Thanks for another fine video Mr. Bardwell.
Having followed the instructions for setting up,binding, upgrading betaflight and flashing my Mobula 7 I was glad to see this video on how to calibrate. My mobula 7, on attempting to take off it just tilts to the left (using camera as front) I adjusted the trim but was interippted somewhat by three screws falling out of the rear left motor and the motor dropped out of the frame !!!! This certaily has been a learning experience. ;-)
This was a life saver! Thanks Joshua. I was trying to figure out how to level my Tiny with the USB cable coming out the bottom! I had several block designs in mind to raise it up. Your way sooo much better!
I used 4 identical mugs to calibrate with a battery on. I have used taller heavy cups with usb plugged in, but you have to deal with the cable's own weight affecting the balance.
thank you Joshua, you just taught a old dog a new trick. I did know about the stick commands, now I do all because of you. thank you again and for sharing your knowledge.
That tip at the end is super useful deserves more visibility. Especially since it doesn’t really matter to the whoop market and most of the video was for them :) It’s great because you still have the safety of the small angle setting , but can get it out of trees or use it on a racing starting stand
Dayum Joshua, being new to fpv, but not new to drones, I got a TinyGo and thought I'd never be able to fly it properly because of the constant in-flight adjustments. I can't believe this method actually worked for that, even with the proprietary transmitter. Now I have a new love for the little guy. Just because of this you just got yourself a new Patreon. Thanks and keep up the awesome informative videos.
Joshua Bardwell i started this hobby only for your special videos, simple clear and explanatory, i was really fighting with my drone as i'm very beginner and as you said I was struggling to figure out what was wrong with me, and it was enough for me to search through your videos to find the simple reason. You are a myth, when I will have the economic possibility to become your pathreon will be the priority! keep it up!
Joshua Bardwell, you did it again! Thanks so much! I did not know I could do that.. The build I have makes it impossible (disassembly required) to do an accelerometer/USB connection, now I can lay it flat and calibrate it with stick commands.. Your the best, and really like the skirt...
That tip at the end of the video is awesome. I set small angle to 180 just in case I get stuck in a tree. Now if a friend gets stuck I'll have one trick up my sleeve to tell them about :)
I realise this is a pretty old clip right now, but I've recently gotten into Whooping in preparation for winter. Just wanted to say, this trick saved my buddy's ass today when he got a 2" stuck in the top of a reeeeeeally tall gum tree. I recalibrated his accelerometer, armed it inverted and thrashed it out of the tree. Cheers, JB! Just wanted to let you know how useful your clip was for more reasons than one :)
Thanks!!! This video was so full of information. I like your energy and how you warn your audience 'now you are gonna learn something'. You are the pinacle of TH-cam, making videos that help people to learn new skills! I bow to you.
Man you have been a key resource as i get into this hobby with my self built mini quad. I use a 3d printed frame thats held with zipties that obstruct the usb. It also drifts backwards when i hover. I manage to fly fine but was eventually going to tinker with the trim via the configurator. But that would mean constantly wasting zipties as i tweak, test, tweak, test. I had NO idea about the stick commands. This video just popped up in my reccomended feed and will save me from so much hassle. Thank you for making this and every video. My next quad is actually going to be based on your recent build and i will absolutely use each and every affiliate link.
Some great little tricks and tip thanks JB.. I never fly in Auto Level However I don't mind admitting I have it set in all my quads, and use it for landing, makes life easier lol Some people say its a cheat I say its a Tool
Thank you Joshua, this is excellent information. i always fly acro and have never bothered recalibrating because i could never get it right. But with this information i am going to recalibrate my entire fleet. its always useful as a panic switch if you,re in trouble. thank you so much, i really learned a lot today
Another great tutorial that helped me achieve exactly what I was looking for. My Protek35 would start tilting towards right and forward even before it took off and even in the angle mode. This helped me to calibrate and trim it so well that now when I start applying the throttle there is no initial drift even before the takeoff. And even after the takeoff the quad drifts very little.
Thank you very much for the video. It totally explained what I was experiencing (drifting forward) because the quad was connected to the computer (micro-usb connection port on bottom of quad) which caused tilt during calibration. It is nice to know I can calibrate and trim without having to connect to computer alleviating what caused the drifting issue. Thank you again. G3D bless you!
Hi Joshua..having trouble connecting to betaflight with my new Armor 65 Plus, so this video helped so much in calibrating my accelerometer! Thank you so much!!
Love that your getting into tiny brushed quads. I havent gotten to brushless yet, becouse I am having so much fun building micro brushed ones, since all the hardware has gotten cheaper and better. Great tips btw, looking forward to more micros
I wasn't expecting to learn a darn thing from this video, and then you go and provide instuctons for calibrating out in the field. Awesome, my Tiny7 (with it's dumb USB port location) will finally get a true calibration. Thank you!
Joshua - I'm one of those acro-only guys, even with my Tiny Whoop build that I race regularly with our local MultiGP Chapter - FLX FPV. I was taken aback in the interview with JP with the statement that no major or minor whoop races are being won by pilots flying acro. Our chapter is half-way through it's second season and every tiny whoop race has been won by a pilot flying acro. We've usually got 12-16 pilots on hand for each race, and there is a variety of acro and angle modes, but the fast guys all fly acro and seem to have the best flow. I'd be very interested to see you spend a little time really dialing in the acro-bee to fly well in acro mode, as well as angle mode, and then dig a little deeper into the position that you have to fly angle to be fast. And if you ever get up into central NY, make sure you come do some whoop racing with us!
Omg thankyou!!!! Been learning on a tinyhawk 2 (addictive fun!) I have a mavair2 (awesome) but I didn't realise how un balanced and dialed in it was until it started heavily drifting left. Now she hovers like a champ! And my flying!!!!! Zero to hero! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I should have seen the video before this weekend ;) Due to drift I've lost my quad in a wet field and spent 35 minutes ankle-deep searching for it. Ended up going home after 7 seconds of flight with totally muddy copter ;)
awesome tips JB, I was just playing around with my whoop last night trying to add I gain to deal with drift. This looks like what I should do before even messing with the PID.
Good to see you making some video’s about tiny whoops. I have a couple of them (some original F36, E010 and some a combination of a E011 frame and motors, with Beecore fc’s an aio cams. Project mockingbird helped me a great deal setting it up. And the stick commands come in very handy 👍 I only fly acro when I have to lose some weight, since the quad is all over the place in acro mode, and I have to pick it up every 7 seconds or so😎
These stick commands just saved my life😂😪 I crashed in my neighbors balcony in my apartment at an angle so the quad wouldn’t arm. I calibrated it sideways and made it home❤️😂😬 omg so lucky
Super helpful! I kinda stopped flying angle on my whoops because calibrating within BF is tricky (really hard to get it right) and for some reason I just had a brain fade on stick commands. I also really like the tip on the small angle. I set to 180 for this very purpose but don't really like it - just one less safety measure disabled. Definitely will consider switching in favor of your method.... however turtle mode has definitely made this easier (although not all my quads esp the 5" ones are on DSHOT ... so definitely helpful!).
You should do a video on stick commands. I think it would be very helpful for many. I remember BorisB telling someone to recal accelerometer when they got their quad stuck in a tree.
JOSH! Thank you so much for this! My acrobee started pulling hard to the right yesterday and I didn't know how I would recalibrate with the USB cord keeping it from being level. This saved me a lot of trouble and headache. 👍
I spent 4 hours trying to get my quad out of a 70' tall tree, the next weekend I went to Joshua's house for Kwad camp and I got my quad stuck in one of Joshua's tall tree's (yes that was me the first person to get stuck in a tree at Kwad camp) and he showed me the Accelerometer stick command and got my quad out of the tree in 2 minuets, I'll never forget that day. GO TO KWAD CAMP IT'S AWESOME! 👍👍👍
I did learn something today! Awesome content and knowledge sharing. Kinda funny how nobody else shares these little tidbits of knowledge. You're the man. And thanks for that.
Great video I just started flying in angle mode for the first time and could not get my whoop to Hoover in place thanks for the information helped a lot Thanks
You Sir, are friggin Awesome! Love the channel! Have been having issues with my DJI equiped Cina-Quads, and DJI was unable to figure it out. This video just made me love these little quads even more!! Thank you!!
This is the video I've been looking for.. omg I'm new to rc quads and my 63mm baby nazgul is just bat*hit crazy to try and fly in the house.. barely any add to the throttle and slams the ceiling.. now i have an idea as to how I can manage that. Thank you!
You totally bullied me in to flying acro! And I want to thank you for it, I still use angle mode as my oh shit / first stage fail safe before engage full fail safe. Thanks again!
Great video man! Glad your getting into whoops, because this is going to make me better at learning my whoop! Never knew about the stick commands! Love it, can't wait to get home and do this!
I’ve been having some trouble pid tuning my acro bee. Getting some oscillations, I’m so stoked you’ve seen the light cause that means help is on its way! Haha. Oh, and get that lil beast in acro mode with your idle up just like a big quad, it comes alive! Not saying anything bad about self level, just saying give it a whirl and see.
Great little snippet at the end...that could have been so helpful this summer...3 day journey to get 2 quads out of 180' tree!!! Needless to say they were rescued but your idea is far better than my paying multiple tree climbers!!!
SteelTallon , what batteries are you running for your 75? I have the same quad and got the 260Mah batteries and hate them. They seem under powered and flight times seem way too short.
SteelTallon that sounds more like what it needs. Thx SteelTallon for the info. Going to keep flying my FT gremlin till I get new batteries for my brushed quad.
Another great vid Josh! Just what we needed to learn. My ten year old son and I have been flying our tiny since building it together from scratch a couple weeks back. (OK maybe I did most of the building..) We had become so bored with the simulator and the tiny is way more fun for learning! Plus the cats love it! Keep up the great work.
Ha! 'my hand isn't even on the stick...' Oh how we used to love our quads when we could hold the transmitter at arms length and exclaim 'see I'm not even touching the TX!' (pre GPS, pre stabilization, pre optical flow, pre everything -Hobbyking KK2 board days)
I use both angle and acro on my micro quad. I tend to fly in angle when in close quarters and acro when in large rooms or outdoors. My friend BoostFPV, however, from what I can tell, races his whoop exclusively in acro, as evident by a celebratory power loop after crossing the finish line in one of his videos.
Wow, thanks so much!! I learn SOO much from you! I’m stoked you’re giving TWs some love... I’ve recently gone bananas over them. Love your channel! Keep the great info flowing.
Perfect timing on this Bardwell! Your interview with JP sent me on a journey to project mockingbird and learning to fly in angle mode. Just last night I was trying to tweak the new tune as a had a heavy left drift. Thanks for the trimming tips!
You have to save settings, both sticks down and out.
I didn't notice needing to save manually while using the function. Someone else in the comments is telling me it auto-saves now.
Ok, good.
Yes, for sure it auto saves. I think this was a 3.2 change, but it could have been one release earlier.. I'd have to look.
Autosave to mine Tiny 6.
Now i love it, tnx Joshua 👍
Its all thanks to you and your passion for the hobby.
Winter here, snow and cold or rain and slush so indoors is the only option this time of year.
I havent updated so thats good to know!!!

This is by far the easiest and most intuitive calibration method. I say this because I am afraid I forget (again) and won't find this video (again).

Wow! It has been 5 Years since Joshua posted this video & this video helped me to stabilize my tiny Flywoo FR16. Thank you. Appreciate your help. 😀
I had no idea you could do those stick commands!, Thank you Joshua for pointing me here. There are definite benefits to supporting you on Patreon.
That tip at the end is super useful deserves more visibility. Especially since it doesn’t really matter to the whoop market and most of the video was for them :)

I found that Angle or Horizon modes are great to switch to, while learning to fly Acro, to recover just prior to a crash.
This video addresses the VERY problem I am having right now with my Mobula 7. Thanks JB, you are earning the patron $ I send each month !
Thanks!!! This video was so full of information. I like your energy and how you warn your audience 'now you are gonna learn something'. You are the pinacle of TH-cam, making videos that help people to learn new skills! I bow to you.
I know this is an older video I've been going through all your videos love your videos thank you so much for all the awesome information
OMG it’s like a hidden gem in a video game if you completely watch this video! Thanks JB!

my voice has been messed up the whole time yours has JB, and i can rest mine, no yt show. respect.
Great vid! Thanks! My son and I have been racing whoops recently. Really useful info for us whoopers!

JD, this is extremely timely for me sorting out a few BetaFPV 65 and 75's. You never fail to deliver - Thank you!
Thank You !!!! My Mobula 6 lifting super straight UP without any drifting now!
Hi Joshua..having trouble connecting to betaflight with my new Armor 65 Plus, so this video helped so much in calibrating my accelerometer! Thank you so much!!

Great tips on calibrating and how we can use some Betaflight features most of us didn't know existed. Thanks Joshua!
Thanks JB!! That was an awesome trick I never knew. Tuned my TW and I can't believe how much more precise I can fly!!
I learned something today. My new (and first) Whoop (mobula8) needs some trimming. Now I know how to do it! I'll do it this evening, probably.

Literally binge watching your stuff over the past couple weeks. Needless to say I've learned a lot!!! Thanks big man!! 💪🏾
Omg thankyou!!!! Been learning on a tinyhawk 2 (addictive fun!) I have a mavair2 (awesome) but I didn't realise how un balanced and dialed in it was until it started heavily drifting left. Now she hovers like a champ! And my flying!!!!! Zero to hero! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I should have seen the video before this weekend ;) Due to drift I've lost my quad in a wet field and spent 35 minutes ankle-deep searching for it. Ended up going home after 7 seconds of flight with totally muddy copter ;)
I actually learned something today ;)
Four years later, and me too.
awesome tips JB, I was just playing around with my whoop last night trying to add I gain to deal with drift. This looks like what I should do before even messing with the PID.
I am now a tiny whoop believer. I am going to start putting things in the cart. Watched the entire series so far. Looks like a ton of fun. Great vids!
Good to see you making some video’s about tiny whoops. I have a couple of them (some original F36, E010 and some a combination of a E011 frame and motors, with Beecore fc’s an aio cams.
Project mockingbird helped me a great deal setting it up. And the stick commands come in very handy 👍
I only fly acro when I have to lose some weight, since the quad is all over the place in acro mode, and I have to pick it up every 7 seconds or so😎
These stick commands just saved my life😂😪 I crashed in my neighbors balcony in my apartment at an angle so the quad wouldn’t arm. I calibrated it sideways and made it home❤️😂😬 omg so lucky
Super helpful! I kinda stopped flying angle on my whoops because calibrating within BF is tricky (really hard to get it right) and for some reason I just had a brain fade on stick commands.
I also really like the tip on the small angle. I set to 180 for this very purpose but don't really like it - just one less safety measure disabled. Definitely will consider switching in favor of your method.... however turtle mode has definitely made this easier (although not all my quads esp the 5" ones are on DSHOT ... so definitely helpful!).
Racing Tiny Whoops in your home is like the quadcopter version of the Micro Machines games - you get to experience your space a whole new way.
You should do a video on stick commands. I think it would be very helpful for many. I remember BorisB telling someone to recal accelerometer when they got their quad stuck in a tree.
+1
I was having so many issues until I found this video. Thank you
JOSH! Thank you so much for this! My acrobee started pulling hard to the right yesterday and I didn't know how I would recalibrate with the USB cord keeping it from being level. This saved me a lot of trouble and headache. 👍

GO TO KWAD CAMP IT'S AWESOME! 👍👍👍
I did learn something today! Awesome content and knowledge sharing. Kinda funny how nobody else shares these little tidbits of knowledge. You're the man. And thanks for that.
These are awesome tips JB! I tweaked my 3 smallest quads and they all hover virtually perfect now! So nice!
Great video I just started flying in angle mode for the first time and could not get my whoop to Hoover in place thanks for the information helped a lot Thanks
wow!!!!!!!! i only fly 5 and 6 inch on 5s and this video was amazing . i didnt know u could do all those stick commands!!!! awesome!!!!!
You Sir, are friggin Awesome! Love the channel! Have been having issues with my DJI equiped Cina-Quads, and DJI was unable to figure it out. This video just made me love these little quads even more!! Thank you!!
This is the video I've been looking for.. omg I'm new to rc quads and my 63mm baby nazgul is just bat*hit crazy to try and fly in the house.. barely any add to the throttle and slams the ceiling.. now i have an idea as to how I can manage that. Thank you!
Wow, very good tip. With the usb cable plug-in it was very tough to set it level. Thanks!
Wow I never knew that! After flying for a couple years I learned something new today and very valuable information!
Really great information here. Thank you, Joshua. I am glad to see that the whoop/angle modes are getting some respect from one as respected as you.
You totally bullied me in to flying acro! And I want to thank you for it, I still use angle mode as my oh shit / first stage fail safe before engage full fail safe. Thanks again!
Great video man! Glad your getting into whoops, because this is going to make me better at learning my whoop! Never knew about the stick commands! Love it, can't wait to get home and do this!
Thank you Joshua, appreciate you getting back so soon, I'm new to all this stuff
I’ve been having some trouble pid tuning my acro bee. Getting some oscillations, I’m so stoked you’ve seen the light cause that means help is on its way! Haha. Oh, and get that lil beast in acro mode with your idle up just like a big quad, it comes alive! Not saying anything bad about self level, just saying give it a whirl and see.
I used to get a soar throat when I lived in pollinville but after two and a half years in south Florida, not even a sniffle!
Great little snippet at the end...that could have been so helpful this summer...3 day journey to get 2 quads out of 180' tree!!!
Needless to say they were rescued but your idea is far better than my paying multiple tree climbers!!!
Why didn't I know this, great explanation man ! I was always trying to trim on the transmitter itself.
I just bought a BetaFPV 75s, and had no idea about the stick commands. Thanks!
SteelTallon , what batteries are you running for your 75? I have the same quad and got the 260Mah batteries and hate them. They seem under powered and flight times seem way too short.
Flight Dreams mine came with a BetaFPV 550mah HV. I also bought 4 GN3 550 HV off Amazon. I like them, plenty of power and about 3-4 flight times.
SteelTallon that sounds more like what it needs. Thx SteelTallon for the info. Going to keep flying my FT gremlin till I get new batteries for my brushed quad.
That was a really good one. I had no idea you could trim the accelerometer with stick commands.
Best info ever for new comers . Thank you.
What about trims on tx
Another cracking... well explained and demonstrated video Josh...your knowledge of all things Quad is truly commendable ....Your the man....Thank you.
Another great vid Josh! Just what we needed to learn. My ten year old son and I have been flying our tiny since building it together from scratch a couple weeks back. (OK maybe I did most of the building..) We had become so bored with the simulator and the tiny is way more fun for learning! Plus the cats love it! Keep up the great work.
I do agree that auto level mode is the best way to fly a tiny whoop indoors!
Ha! 'my hand isn't even on the stick...' Oh how we used to love our quads when we could hold the transmitter at arms length
and exclaim 'see I'm not even touching the TX!' (pre GPS, pre stabilization, pre optical flow, pre everything -Hobbyking KK2 board days)
I use both angle and acro on my micro quad. I tend to fly in angle when in close quarters and acro when in large rooms or outdoors. My friend BoostFPV, however, from what I can tell, races his whoop exclusively in acro, as evident by a celebratory power loop after crossing the finish line in one of his videos.
Cette vidéo à 6 ans, mais ca fonctionne toujours ! Merci beaucoup pou l'astuce !
Thank you! Your channel is sooo useful for a noob. FPV is awesome!!!
Ask and you shall receive. Thanks Josh
man your voice is rough! thanks for sticking it out for this video. rest those chords bardwell ;)
Great advice on how to calibrate. I was wondering how to do it with the darn USB plug on the bottom. The stick commands are great.
Whoop’n in trees is fun Joshua 🙂 Thanks for the tips
Wow this was really really helpful. I had no idea you could do that with stick commands.
An excellent video Joshua, I wish the 30 mph winds would sod off, so I can do some trimming.
Wow, thanks so much!! I learn SOO much from you! I’m stoked you’re giving TWs some love... I’ve recently gone bananas over them. Love your channel! Keep the great info flowing.
I have been looking for a video on this very topic, especially stick calibration. Good job and thanks.
Love your educational videos!!!!!!! Love tiny whoop 💪🏻
Why NOBODY told us about stick commands? Thanks Josh =)
JC told us once, may he rest in peace.
absolutely love this not having to plugin to betaflight to adjust trim, ty ty ty :)
THANKS! At my first test I saw the drift on the right... then I found your amazing tutorial and I fixed it :-)
JB your a god among pilots
Thanks again. Saving lives, brother. Happy thanksgiving
You're very informative and easy to understand. Thanks for this video. I'm new and very intimidated setting up my FS I6X and my Tinyhawk.
Perfect timing on this Bardwell! Your interview with JP sent me on a journey to project mockingbird and learning to fly in angle mode. Just last night I was trying to tweak the new tune as a had a heavy left drift. Thanks for the trimming tips!
Thank you so much for your video. After a. calibration of the accelerometer my mobula6 fly much stable :)
