I fly in VR using a Quest 3 headset.

Apparently the largest plane to land there IRL was an Airbus A319. I'd need to practice a bit to get a better feel for the approach in the 747 at Paro. I did better in my night landing there.

Look at my Paro landings if you want to see hard landings.

I've never been there IRL. It looks nice in the sim though.

@@CreativeRealityAU if you have the chance, you should go! It looks even better irl!

It gives you a feeling for how big the 747 is.

End the title with (sim) or (MSFS)? I haven't seen a good way to do this without adding lots of words. It's in the "Gaming" category and the description says "MSFS 2020 flying". Thoughts?

@@CreativeRealityAU i think MSFS is the way to go ^^

@@mspixxxiiii I was thinking about this. Do you think everyone knows what (MSFS) is? Or is (sim) is clearer for the average viewer? I thought adding (sim) to the end of the title may be clearer.

@Finn_Mc_Missile This is 2020. I have enough server and BW problems with this, so I won't be upgrading any time soon.

@@skies6546 Thanks for taking the time to watch my video and comment. Feel free to show me how you would do a better landing at an unfamiliar airport after losing all engines at low altitude. Merry Christmas.

@@CreativeRealityAU could have easily done S swerves on approach, or turned earlier and do a slow airspeed approach

people cant mess around in sins anymore i guess

@@MrSande Valid, i mess around in MSFS24 all the time, was assuming he was framing this as a more serious video

@@skies6546 I find S-turns in a 747 is not as easy as in a smaller plane. Turning earlier will put you too high. Flying slower is OK as long as you are overshooting your landing point - but then you have to dive down to burn off more energy to hit your aiming point, which means you will go faster. Remember that headwind will reduce as you go lower which could cause you to stall if you are going too slow. Energy loss increase as V-squared, so I find it better to manage energy loss through speed adjustments - but maybe that's just me. IRL kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5-upKewfK2Zq6c

@DenDanskeKarpe Apparently life is too easy and I need a challenge. Think of the fuel and carbon saving. But I have landed a small plane with a dead engine IRL, so I like to practice - for fun.

@matthewwright9217 You understand my personal flying style. My first flight at this airport. The trick to landing without engines is to imagine that you're flying a hang glider; then it's easy.

I seem to do better landings with the engines turned off.

I'm using a Quest 3 with USB connection to a Win11 PC running a 4080 Super. This video is using NVIDIA to capture the Oculus Mirror view of one eye being sent to the Quest 3. Drawing a square eye on a rectangle video means I lose the lower part of the instrument panel. I'm also using ASW or OpenXR Turbo to generate extra frames which is giving 72 fps in the headset.

@@CreativeRealityAU thanks!

I'm trying to find a decent way to record VR from MSFS and upload to KZbin in a way you can watch it in 2D or 3D. This looks OK in 3D if you use KZbin on a Quest 3 headset.

Thanks. The algorithm is basically stated in words on the screen. The program gives a visualization of the algorithm in action. If you were going to implement this then you are better off spending the time to understand how this works and implement the algorithm yourself. Probably the most interesting aspect of this solution is that it estimates the center of each color section without knowing the length of each color section.

XD SO SMART!

Not far, its not a GPS drone so it = trash. I've returned mine and got a D58 instead.

I recorded 14 mins of video from the flight this video came from. Each video file is 2 mins long. I'd expect you could get over 15 mins if you just hovered. Going up & down and flying around will use more power. I did one flight into wind and had to keep it flying forwards fast to stay in position - it felt like it only lasted half as long on that flight.

@@CreativeRealityAU thx

This is the raw footage from the SD card uploaded to youtube. The raw footage is slightly sharper than the youtube video, but still looks heavily compressed like the youtube video. Make sure you have your youtube video on 1080p for playback, you might be getting a lower quality playback. The E511 video is heavily compressed @ 4Mbps. My cheap dashcam video, also 1080p, is 20Mbps. It gives a much sharper and clearer image. I don't know why the E511 is so heavily compressed and I don't know of any options to change it. Maybe someone else is getting better quality from the E511? I've posted 5 different videos so far. These are the best quality I can get from the SD card (64Gig EVO plus) on the E511. Remember though, this is not a $1500 drone, it's a $100 drone. It would be interesting to see if it has the power to lift a GoPro or similar. It does feel like it has some good lifting power when you hold it.

@@CreativeRealityAU Thanks. That's quite helpful.

How far you fly it with the gps on
