Betaflight 4.3 Modes Tab | COMPLETE WALKTHROUGH PART 4

[@orlinn3]

You're the fucking man Joshua you have no idea how much you just helped me. Thank you for being what felt like the only person on this website that was able to help and not rush into it and you gave me everything i needed to know and now after 3 hours of dicking around and struggling I find you and now finally at 6:40 am I got to fly my drone all thanks to you :)

I am dropping this comment after i just watched you explain headfree and headadj mode. so impressive how much you know. it's just so much information to take in, like school. Good thing I have a great teacher, just need more coffee. I think I'm almost airborne.

Thank you Joshua. You are hitting on things in this series that I have never asked about, but always wondered what they did or did not do ot what their function was.

[@WernerBeroux]

And if you have only a few Aux (looking at you tiny whoop), you can have two or more button use a single channel. It gets a bit complex in the mixer but works.

[@bellis7077]

I just did something really stupid. I just received my Flywoo Explorer LR 4 HD V2.2 (thanks to your review!) and went t set it up using Betaflight 4.4. Betaflight absolutely terrifies me so I only use the basic options. I have the DJI goggles V2 and the black DJI FPV controller. I set up the Modes and OSD yesterday. When I was doing the modes I only had Beeper, GPS Rescue, Horizontal and Acro modes (both on AUX 3), no Angle. The Angle mode greyed out. This was the factory default. Today I was going to set up GPS Rescue to what others have found to work. Over night I found that getting Angle back was easy. All I had to do was to click on ADD RANGE. It worked. I then positioned the Angle to the top switch position where Horizon was and then moved Horizon to the middle switch position leaving Acro to the bottom switch position. After saving I realized I made a mistake. I did all this without the receiver being on. Now when I throw the AUX 3 switch on my controller to move between Angle, Horizon and Acro modes the yellow switch position indicator in the Modes tab of Betaflight does not move. The same is true with Arm, GPS rescue and beeper. As well in the switch Receiver tab, none of the horizontal bars move any more when moving the joy sticks or switches. Betaflight and my controller no longer recognize each other. Any idea how I can fix this? Is there a way I can undue activating Angle mode and moving Horizon back to where it was yesterday then saving. Would that fix the problem? I am hoping there a really simple fix. I am a tech challenged newbie. I hope you can help Cheers, Bill

[@YurisbelJimenez]

To me it makes sense to have 2 AUX inputs for arming. For example having the throttle all the way down plus a dedicated AUX button to avoid a run away situation. Im new and trying the learn here. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Keep the good work.

[@JoshuaBardwell]

That's prearm mode.

[@roberthanson9843]

Joshua thank yo for this informative tutorial! I am totally new to FPV, Betafligh, and associated things. I have been flying fixed wing models since u-control in 1957 onward through hard tube single channel radios etc. I am currently using Jeti and Exbus and I am setting up a GEPRC Cinebot 30 with a Jeti Rx in it running xbus. I have flown it and apparently successfully setup angle mode. No crashes yet! However the problem I am having is that for a reason I don't understand the Betaflight is not recognizing the switches when I try to set up other functions such as beeper, trainer acro etc. I went back and deleted all the ranges I had set up in modes and the switch setups in Tx. Then tried two set up the switch for Angle and Horizon on a switch and it is not seeing that when I throw the switch. What have I done that it is no longer recognizing the switches? Thanks

[@Fac-i1k]

Note that the maximum amount of lines (ranges) we can create and save across all modes is 20 ! It is not documented though

[@MindRiderFPV]

The patience of explaining it YET AGAIN! Lol.

[@bebenoeg5188]

Thank you JB, always listen to your lessons.. 😁👍 next..

[@GRANOLAFPV]

Failsafe mode is also one way to set up multi-quad switching for things like team racing. I have my TX16S set up so that the numbered 6-pos switch selects which of my 3 identical quads is “active”, which is accomplished by setting the ranges for each quad to put it in failsafe mode whenever it’s *not* selected. It also disables the VTX via the FC’s built-in pit switch via the “User1” mode on the same switch. Talon FC’s come setup with the “User1” mode to active the pit switch.

[@GRANOLAFPV]

(Failsafe mode is preferred over paralyze mode since you can “reactivate” the quad if needed.)

[@joecachia2]

I don't know if ill ever cut it in fpv , but this betaflight tuning thingy is facinating.

[@LynxGenisys]

Ok.. yes, you're right. I'll go to the start of the playlist ...cuz you're right.. i did randomly end up here in the middle from a seatch.. 😂

[@flyntmoreland7385]

I'm stuck. I'd like to assign Flip Over mode to a switch on a TX16S but it's not on the list on the Modes Tab. I found a comment that I need to use DShot, but I can't figure out how to turn it on. I'm Running Betaflight 4.4 and a JBF7-V2 flight controller. There's so much to this stuff. I feel like I'm drinking from a fire hose but, all your videos are helping a bunch! Thanks!

[@JoshuaBardwell]

Turn Dshot on in the Motors tab. Set the motor protocol to Dshot 300.

[@flyntmoreland7385]

[@Fly_High_FPV]

User1-4 are also used for Adjustments, like if you want to setup rateprofiles on an aux switch 👍

[@JoshuaBardwell]

I don't think that's right. You set those up based on the aux channel position directly.

[@youtubxkip]

FailSafe: About the reason, it can be used just as a "return to home mode". Meaning, not for testing, but for actually activating it, e.g. if TX stick is broke during the flight or health issue, e.t.c. just to explicitly instruct quad to take over and help. In my setup I'm using AUX2 for all modes, so TX maps all the bells and whistles to single channel with 6-8 positions: 1. Acro (default, no mode activated) 2. Angle 3. Horison 4. 3D (actually I only use this one in simulators so far) 5. Acro Training (was default for the first week) 6. Return to home But this does not mean TX just have mapped 6P on it, there are more complex logic, like confirmation button, or quick angle (SH toggle overrides mode to Angle as a quick button to auto-level in acro, if I disoriented after hitting a branch or something, helps a lot during first months, also helps in simulators). Since TX is way more powerful and smarter and because more AUX in ELRS means - less frequent updates of AUX round-robin, I think even if you just use switches for modes (not 6P), it still makes sense to pack all of it into single AUX channel on TX. But for simulators TX also maps every mode to individual channel, and even oscillates them, because simulators usually expects HID controller and apart axes have only buttons. For this and other simulator-only things, I'm using CH16-CH31 that are never goes to real transmitters. This helps me to keep 1 setup and 1 model in TX for 3 quads and a simulator simultaneously. My point is - keep logic separate from transmission. TX have it's own brain and flexibility for you to make use of, AUX channels is just a way to communicate stuff, and BF Modes is just a way to interpret communication back to real action. Don't over pollute your AUX.

[@johnnyrocket3200]

I use the FAILSAFE-TEST as some kind of a panic!Button. When someone plugs their Battery and is on the same VTX frequency as I am, then I'm blind far away mid-trick... Or when my Radio outranks my VTX in range, which is always the case, I need to hit the "RTH" because I'm blind. Or when I lose orientation mid trick and am about to crash.

[@FPVSlice]

Really appreciate this series!! If you understand how all of this works it's more beneficial in the long run.. instead of just copying values. Thanks!

[@BSkridaila]

There is a good reason to setup multiple switches for one function. I setup beeper with arm only when quad is disarmed. Once I recovered from bad crash switching to angle mode, as I recovered I turned on beeper on accident trying to switch back to acro which dropped the drone right into snow... Since then I run this double switch setup

[@alexeyfedorov7645]

Great series, Joshua, love it, thanks a lot! Regarding fake safe mode. What if use it to return home when you loose orientation for example. Just flip it and get your drone safe at home. Is it viable?

[@quad55555]

the only reason to use telemetry on a switch, is long flights mid-range/long-range if you want all the info, but want to see the whole screen without all the writing and numbers to obscure the view...telemetry only when you want to see it not always obscuring vision

[@sliksoft]

Thanks JB i was looking for this

[@MichaelRogersJesusrules]

Cheers JB.

[@LifeofAccro]

thanks, just bought a runcam thumb and was wondering how i could wire to uart and assign a switch for recording ;)

[@TechnicallyTom]

A good example for two switches activating a single mode would be using the pre arm switch trigger the beeper and also having a switch that just triggers the beeper. This makes you quad beep right before arming as a warning to let others know you are about to arm. You could just set it to the pre arm switch but there are situations where you might want to use the beeper but not set pre arm, for example, someone looking for your crashed quad wanting you to turn on beeper.

[@wesley4713]

That’s an interesting use. That would work well on my tinywhoop when I’m flying around my preschooler. If it beeps it bites! Later on in life she wonder why beeping noises scare her. I wonder though if setting up modes like this is akin to setting up osd info. Like the more you do it, the less you care. Lol “ I need to know my esc temp!”

[@ryswe]

in that scenario you could also just toggle the "beep on arm" option in the beeper config, which would be an easier simpler way to do that

[@TechnicallyTom]

@@ryswe This doesn’t do the same thing. I am setting the beeper to go off before arming. Setting beep on arm wouldn’t beep until the props started spinning.

[@ryswe]

@@TechnicallyTom I'm curious, why would you want it to beep before arming? I personally find too much beeping annoying so I don't see why someone would want that

[@TechnicallyTom]

@@ryswe You let everyone in you group know that means you are about to arm if the quad beeps. It’s just another safety measure.

[@ls4life544]

Love the video, Lean many thing from it. I just wanted to mention that you did not discuss "GPS rescue" and "GPS satellite beep count". They sound self explanatory maybe that is what you did not go over them.

[@lermy3d]

I was thinking into incorporate a "come Home and auto land" button to my drone, and it seems that Failsafe mode totally fits into that feature perfectly. Is this something Betaflight can help me achieve if I hook up a gps?

[@jermainecunningham5188]

Your doing a great job keep it up😊

[@shALKE]

Awesome stuff. I wish Betaflight would add a mode where the quad levels and maintains elevation, basically standing still.

[@Fly_High_FPV]

Dji accomplishes "loiter mode" with a barrage of sensors...barometer + optical image for elevation, gps combined with optical for position. If you've ever seen a toy grade drone try to RTH(it's not recommended) you'll know why it's not in Betaflight yet (flyaways or worse). INav and Ardupilot support it, but still need additional sensors.

[@proxemiafpv5746]

I think what you are wanting is in a league that beta flight isn’t really aiming to do. Good luck. If you want that, as stated, go DJI.

[@wrstew1272]

INAV is a brother that could do altitude hold, but you have to have a barometer on or attached to the flight controller. See Painless360 for details. Betaflight isn’t really interested in that kind of stuff, but INAV is

[@skyweaver3199]

I wonder if we could start a betaflight troubleshooting contest. Where pilots sign up to compete. Then we somehow have the same issue in a quad that we have to fix, or a host/hosts with the quad/s and we have to troubleshoot issues with that host. Then we set up a point system based on the issues.

Good Morning Joshua. I purchased a Nazgul5 that has "AIR MODE" as a mode in BETAFLIGHT on AUX 3(1700-2100). It also has Mode-ANGLE on AUX 3(900-1300), and Mode-HORIZON on AUX 8(1700-2100). This doesn't make sense to me either... But my primary question is, when you have a moment, would you please explain why one would want to toggle this AIR MODE? Thank you.

With the distances/environments you fly, i'd probably recommend Crossfire Tango 2 or DJI controller. Tango 2 is compact, durable, and longrange af, plus it's OpenTX(FreedomTX) if you wanna geek out and program a bunch cool shit. If you wanna keep it simple, DJI's controller will keep you from even needing to add a Receiver, not much to customize, and it works. My buddies who hate computers love the DJI remote control, the rest are flying mostly Tango2, Mambo, or TX16s and a few random hand-me-downs 👍

I’d get the radiomaster Zorro. I got the frysky cheapo version for $80 and added a module. Or - just get the elrs internal one. I personally like the modules because you can take them with you to a new radio / adapt to tomorrows stuff.

how do i import my simulator drone configuarations and tunings to my real fpv drone for optimal flying experience?

[@Fly_High_FPV]

The downside of telemetry is increased latency. Racers may choose to disable telemetry to shave the latency to it's extreme limits. Look at the latency tests for ELRS, Ghost, and Tracer. The 2 fastest run no telemetry mode to get below 4ms of latency. Tracer is a hair slower because you can't disable telemetry. That said, i'm always using telemetry, and I'm even using the Crossfire NanoRX Pro that has 500mw of Telemetry broadcast power, because I want my openTX callouts for battery and LQ especially when i'm at long range 👍

[@Fly_High_FPV]

Latency via jitter*

[@jiatan_fpv]

Telemetry mode is a receiver setting, disabling telemetry in BF won't reduce the latency because the receiver would still be either in telemetry mode or in one way mode, and not receiving any telemetry from BF doesn't change that. Otherwise, good points.

[@Chris-xe5ts]

My first advice to every beginner is always: do not put arm on this switch! :D I have seen so many injuries because people accidently flipped the switch by hitting the leg/whatever when picking up the quad or when putting down the remote. Just use the switch above for arming the quad^^

[@ATN007]

..Or use prearm :) I started using the momentary as prearm... much safer.... :)

[@JoshuaBardwell]

You can use prearm mode or you can raise the throttle after disarming. Either one will prevent accidental switch-flip arming.

[@Chris-xe5ts]

@@ATN007 Sure. But that makes it a lot more complicated than just using another switch ;)

[@Fly_High_FPV]

@Chris best practice is to put throttle up as soon as you crash , so it's safe when you pickup...all this safety is the result of us using 180degree arming, that by default would keep the quad from arming if we're carrying it sideways...

[@bloatedgoatfpv]

Has to be on aux1 if using ELRS. You could remap aux1 to another switch but I use prearm on the momentary switch. I think that's the best solution.

I've downloaded all new drivers and files and nothing seems to work. Any ideas of what I could try. Also, I'm only getting three tones when battery connected to quad...any help is greatly appreciated....Thanks.

How do I remove a link and range? I added black box to a channel and I want to remove it

[@JoshuaBardwell]

There is an X button on the right side of the link or range.

If you want to open a huge can of worms, contact your dev buddies and tell them that it isn’t a black box, it’s a pair of orange boxes. That would be one interesting conversation………I know, it’s called that by almost everyone. But orange it is. Helps find them.
