[@baggszilla]

Yesss! Thank you for this DrainMan! I just updated to EdgeTX and now I'm going to BF4.3!

[@ericboff7273]

Awesome intro vid to the new Betaflight!! I absolutely love your videos and energy ma man!! Keep them coming!! I can't wait til you blow up on KZbin even more!!

[@osama4790]

I only have a little left until I start flying for the first time, just waiting for the rest of the items to reach me like tbs tango and here I am a nice short video of using Betafilght 4.3

[@WrongWayFPV]

Just flew 4.3 for the first time today.. stock settings on my mark4, and it's never flown better. Quad actually felt locked in. Highly recommend to flash your quads to 4.3.. just make sure you're running 10.8 on the configurator

[@Mawragfpv]

[@Marcus2750-u1t]

Drainman you the man bruh! Love your content man plz dnt ever stop! Much love and respect man!

[@scu-dub]

I can't believe I just got a new lap and wanted to put the new beta on it and bam!!!! Drain with this vid lol👍✌

[@greg0063]

1/2 way through this video and subscribed, the clarity of the process and presentation is awesome. Glad I found the channel!

[@rflekt]

3:54 bro you got the same voice of Samuel L. Jackson! Great video!

[@jessefriesen9666]

Good shit dude! Excited to fly 4.3 soon.

[@pricelineseale6778]

Drain Man!! Hey Drain Man your my go to for anything FPV, your videos are very informative and easy to watch. Question, if I ever needed help with something drone can I pay you for some 1 on 1 help over the phone?

[@MosOneK]

SUCH A BIG HELP ! THEY WALK THROUGH AND BREAK DOWN WAS PERFECT FOR MY DUMB BRAIN

[@Deserthacker]

"If it works, why mess with it?" The fact that it can be messed with is enough for me lol

[@scu-dub]

It's just so tempting lol😁 I heard some scary stuff about the new version locking up and deleting all your configs when plugging up to speedy bee on your phone so definitely have to make sure everything is updated 👍✌

[@Deserthacker]

@@scu-dub Hmm, I haven't used spedybee in a while. There is an official (although beta?) version of the betaflight configurator. You could always just keep a txt file of your config (diff all) on your phone, just in case. Good flying!

[@blitzfultime]

DrainMan makes dis shit alot easier, subbed.

[@jamesmichaelcabrera9613]

Thank you. I’m new to this

[@RossHasAdrone]

my dude comin in with the KNOWLEDGE bomb. i love it

[@ninmarioscc]

I love this guy's energy

[@willpowerfpv3246]

Love every one of your very special videos, dude! It would be great if you could lock in your camera focus...in auto, either your animated movements, it has trouble staying in focus and really messes with my eyes. The info is on point, concise and to the point, and always fun to watch. Love when you take components to the microscope. Keep doing you, bro...the Drainman is total underrated. Wish I could sub twice. 💪

[@NatanRufino]

I really enjoy your videos... you are in such a good mood that's contagious... thanks brother!

[@charlesc7020]

[@adamcfpv5372]

Great vid brother that is for the help I was getting mad you made it easy

[@eliocesar3681]

Thank you very much friend. Great Tutorial. Congratulations.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

Learned something!

[@sheapyfpv8224]

Love Ur enthusiasm man keep up good work 👍

[@mootine2007]

Great video. 👍 You mentioned doing a Driver video. That would be great. Showing when to use each of the drivers would be a first and only video. Like if your FC board doesn't even get recognized as a device by the PC would be where to start. Then go from there. I just had a problem where ImpulseRc kept failing with an Iflight Mini F722 TwinG FC because Iflights manual say put your Tbs Nano Rx on Uart 1. But that was interfering. Temporarily disconnected the Rx and I was able to use ImpulseRc Fixer and then Ultimately flash the FC. As soon as I hooked up the Rx again it won't go into DFU mode. So Betaflight FB page suggested moving the Rx to Uart 2 for the fix. Apparently you shouldn't use Uart 1 even though Iflights manual says to do so.

[@tristanhouleiphone]

Thanks for the awesome video. Will be checking all your other stuff out subscribed

[@JacoduPreez]

I am a rebel and just left the new betaflight version in the download folder with the other random downloads :p

[@RaynerGS]

Are there any improvements related to GPS functions? Salute from Brazil.

[@RGMGFitness]

*Nice job on this video!* Love the energy in your videos. Quick question...can I run and old version of BetaFlight Configurator (10.7.0) and a new version (10.8.0) on my Windows machine at the same time? Have a feeling I'm going to need both for a while as I have some older quads and some new ones coming. Would be nice to be able to run both without having to uninstall and older version of the Configurator. Just want to confirm no one's reporting issues running both (10.7.0 & 10.8.0) simultaneously before I try this. Thanks again!

[@beatzbycam8925]

Been in the hobby bout 8 months always get nervous updating things, but love the progression and this years releases seem to be hot!!!! thanks for your vid put me at ease and gonna go do it now and rewatch! big thanks from england - flowcam_fpv

[@KK-ol5ov]

Thanks 👍

[@sagitarman30]

Gracias me ayudo mucho

[@GenesRCAddiction]

Thank you for a great fallow along video 🙏👊👍✌️

[@roman8747]

Thanks for the tutorial, the last time I updated beta flight it took three hours. I found out later that I should have deleted the old version first. Should I delete the old version first?

[@blitzfultime]

Thx man.

[@Soarhighfpv]

Newbie question I’m building my first quad will the the flight controller need flashed or will it all ready have a firmware on it ready

[@2high2flyfpv88]

It will have firmware already on it, but I always flash with the latest.

[@2high2flyfpv88]

I just did a build with the Kakuteh7 mini and it flies fairly well on the stock settings, but the rates are way slower than I like, but when I went into the rates, the new ones make no sense, and it adjusts 10 points at a time. Seems a bit weird the rates stayed at 800 when I moved the numbers up. Guess this will take a bit of playing with .

[@pjb5262]

I was wondering if you could shed some advice. The other day I bound my Tx to my Tyro 69 (I know ..I know....but I am just a noob when it comes to programmable drones). The sticks did not elicit a response from the drone. I then decided to update the firmware and flash the FC. Boy was that a mistake! I can plug in the FC and it reads it, but now I have no gyro, accelerometer.......I have nothing. Would Beta 4.3 & 10.8 Config help???

[@konaboyz1690]

And I thought tax law was ........ Good job Drainman Surfing CPA Hawaii

[@jessjoshwyatt3571]

Is there no way to download to a windows 7 computer starting with this version? Just always liked windows 7

[@opossumfpv]

[@vascobatista1011]

[@flyguycinematic6030]

I recently got back into find my old drone it had the butter flight configurator on it so I switched over back to Betaflight. I just downloaded the new Betaflight and went to configuration To set up my transmitter receiver But in the configuration it is not allowing me that feature The tab isn’t even there. I use spectrum. I can’t switch to anything because there’s nothing there. Can you help me out? Thanks

[@JohnIn2SonAZ]

I can't install it I get a notification that says.... Error Uninstalling Configurator The System cannot find the file specified??

[@pixelgunman8388]

Why when I run the ImpulseRC driver fixer it says “looking for a flight controller” and it does nothing but loads.

[@levigangler9126]

Please help. The driver fixer is not working. I have a new computer with windows 11

[@brandonehinger5385]

So what do i do if i bought my drone from someone nd it doesn't work how do i start from scratch and load up something that will make it work will this tortial work?

[@Booster388]

cool it sucks that i cant use bateflight 4.3 cuz i use windows 7

[@jeremykelley9054]

I am thinking about going back to win 10 and see if it works that way

[@jamiehill9578]

can i save whtson on the board from the top of beta flight page instead of using commands line then when i do update the load safe file then all that was on the board from iflight will go back on

[@MrWalterbanks]

Noob here, how do you load text file for firmware flashing. I screwed up my Rekon35 trying to update. Betaflight wants a .hex or another type of file but not text. Thanks

[@broken4999]

Hay bro I tried flashing and it says initiating reboot to bootloader didn't work any ideas

[@chrislarn8675]

hiya drainman. old pc died so bought new windows 11. trying to get betaflight 10.8 to open a port! The impuilse rc driver fixer hangs saying its looking for a controller....Ive spent two days now trying to get this all working. Can you offer anyadvice what to do when this happens?

[@jeremykelley9054]

betaflight firmware flasher not loading properly. when I click the flash firmware icon, betaflight tries to load but keeps spinning a wheel and says waiting for data. What am I missing? Fresh download betaflight 10.8.0 on windows 11 homeHP pavilion x360

[@levigangler9126]

Please help! Do you have to download the drivers then use Impulse driver fixer? I can’t download CP210X because there isn’t one for my operating system. My BETAFLIGHT doesn’t show the STM USB as yours did. What am I doing wrong?

[@2high2flyfpv88]

Use the impulse driver fixer, it will load the drivers you need. You may want to check out some videos on it, but it's fairly simple.

[@peeweeherman5590]

Whoa you got alotta drones... more drones than I have girlfriends.. well you beat me by 1.. Haha

[@joshmcdonald81]

brother please help when i hook up to fc and no gyro showing in beta any ideas ....its a axisflying argus f7 pro

[@jaredmende3641]

Does Anyone know what It means If The lights blink on 32a 32bit kiss Esc mean???? There not idling correctly. So when I go in to test them on the kiss configurator they start blinking and Then screen stops working all of a sudden.. And The Only way I get The Configurator to respond is to cut it off and go Back In.. tried 20 time's over same.

[@AZAZAZ716]

After trying to put in wrong u a r t s or took them all off or spun my motor but my gyro don't work now or nothing load but I'll have to resurch more but i hope it will all iron out but thanks for your help!

[@TheEcho2]

What's up with those Eye Brows Bruh ?

[@whats-hamptoning]

I can't find the v10.8.0 configurator anywhere ... all that comes up in the link here is v10.9.0 - and BETAFPV is as about as helpful as a bag of open razor blades, all my support tickets being ignored ... I've had this Cetus X Betaflight Kit for not even four days, I'm about to stomp on everything in it and throw it in the fire, and NEVERRRR buy a BETAFPV product ever again in my life

[@dustinplee5067]

When I try to download beta flight it says error uninstalling configurator this system cannot find the file specified how do I fix it
