Quick question, is the link for the download broke on the facebook group?

[@ProjectMockingbird]

@@bradcurtis9560 yeah, all links to the dev hexes are gone now as .30 official release is coming. Be on the lookout for a new PMB for it, and it will also be a preset!

[@M.TTT.]

@@ProjectMockingbird hey, is there a video explaining the presets for the mob6 using Emu? I haven't looked yet, but just got my mob6 today. Thank you.

[@ProjectMockingbird]

@@M.TTT. my website and FB group have a new .3.0 tube that works great with the Mob6

[@JoshuaBardwell]

PLEASE NOTE: The video shows flashing Emu 2.0 RC1 via the Emuflight configurator. That is the incorrect version for use with Project Mockingbird. Please download the dev version linked in the Facebook page. In the video I say that the Mob6 and Meteor65 crash well. Then later I complain about how when they crash they stick to the wall or ceiling on Betaflight, and they don't do that on Emuflight. What I mean is, compared to a brushed Whoop, they crash well, in that they have so much torque that when they hit something they can instantly correct and often keep flying. But then sometimes Betaflight air mode flips out and the motors rev up and they stick to the wall or ceiling until you disarm. Upon re-watching the video a few times, it's clear that I'm crashing more on Emu, and I'm overshooting corners more too. My personal take on this is that the Emu tune feels so much better that it's encouraging me to try to go faster, and then I'm getting less precise. In addition, the PMB default rates were a little different than the ones I was using on BF. I think that with more practice, or with a more skilled pilot, the Emu tune would definitely be faster around a track, and it was no-question more exciting to fly. But some pilots are going to be faster on the Betaflight tune (or a slightly de-tuned version of the Emu/PMB tune) because they'll be more in control.

[@KnizzleHizzle]

Curious to see how emuflight would do without the tune for a more FW to FW comparison :-)

[@JoshuaBardwell]

@@KnizzleHizzle Funny. The last time I tested Emu and flew it on defaults for exactly this reason, some people criticized me for not flying it "at its best". Just goes to show.

[@KnizzleHizzle]

Joshua Bardwell oh, sorry, didn't mean to critize, I found it quite informative. But as I don't have a BNF whoop so I was curious what emuflight brings to the table ;-)

[@ianrmurphy]

I'm curious why you consider the rates part of the tune? For me rates are distinct - a good tune gets the best out of the rates I like to fly and I would always put my rates onto a quad before evaluating how I feel it flies.

[@hoonam814]

I want to see you do 3d mode with the mobula 6

[@srossi88]

Josh, did you disable airmode in BF? My mobula recovers just as well once I turn that off. I believe Patrick has it turned off in his emuflight config

[@lorentacar]

Can you make another video with the 19kv and give your finale Thoughts on battery handling... in my expérience i flew it with 450mah and 550 with a throttle curv to get an easy hoovering and it stay really fun to fly ... and flew sooo long! i suppose that suit Better to the low kv due to more torque... perhaps i say BS if someone knows tell me.

[@The_Real_Zaineman]

WOW, my Mobula 7 just goes full throttle freaking out when I hit something TOO ! The fact that yours does that too makes me feel so much better. Also, my Mobula saw you flying your Mobula. Now it doesn't me flying it or touching it. It says I make it feel icky......... Z

[@jawolllinger]

Newbie question: Would reflashing a Mob6 HD to Emuflight and JESC make any sense at all? I understand, that the Mob6 HD is not a good choice for racing, but would JESC flashing also increase flight time for the HD and would the emuflight tune also improve the "handling"?

[@mdo]

Yes. Afaik they're basically the same quad just a different camera system.

[@kristof007]

JESC or Bluejay or any other ESC firmware with 48khz or 96khz PWM frequency will increase your flight time on the Mob6 HD.

[@markvarian1637]

@joshua the meteor65 gets another full minute with the 48hz esc fix. At least in my case with the betarpv batteries.

[@baefed]

Sucks its not available anywhere for a few more months... by that time winter will be over and we will all be back outside on our normal quads.

[@gabbo2027]

I'd recommend playing with throttle curves rather than a limit, that way you can tame your low & mid stick throttle, but keeping full power available for when you're about to plow into the bottom of a gate :)

For amazing indoor footage see Nick Burns. Very hypnotic viewing. He witters all the way through every video. Very entertaining.

[@Gillete13bmsp]

On mobula 6 with 25000kv motors i saw big differnce with jesc 96khz. A plus 30 seconds from jesc 48khz (setup with emuflight and PMB settings). At 3:30 flight time i take out the battery at 3,7v resting voltage and at 4:00 flight time, resting voltage is 3,5-3,6v.

[@veek2767]

I was not expecting those pants.

[@kevinmahoney9205]

So, what about the flight times after flashing to EmuFlight & PM? What kind of flight times do you get with the 19000kv and better batteries?

[@jameslaraia]

Annnnnd now I’m buying a Mobula 6😂😂😂😐😅

[@uavtech]

Key to no freak on hitting stuff is turning off Airmode (in any firmware).

[@JoshuaBardwell]

True but then the quad has no authority at low throttle.

[@uavtech]

@@JoshuaBardwell yep that is the difference. In Airmode, you don't need 0 throttle authority. That and a lower I-term or lower I-term limits as when you hit a wall, I-term starts to wind up as Angle Mode tries to correct.

[@Quick-Flash]

@@uavtech emu does have it's own ways of dealing with that. And as you can see it crashes well.

[@ProjectMockingbird]

Yeah, turning off airmode definitely helps but Emuflight has extra things to keep that windup from happening and recover more quickly.

[@o3rMeNs]

This whole emuflight hype is a bit exaggerated if you ask me. It’s just that many people don’t turn of things like airmode because youtube video’s have drilled them to always leave it on. BF can do the same as EF although some features that EF brings should be done in your radio mixer instead.

[@michaelsouders4026]

In the video you grabbed an earlier version of EmuFlight, rather than Patrick's link to the newer 0.2.15 beta binary. I'd recommend using his binary, as it may have additional features and tweaks that aren't present in the one you grabbed. I made the same mistake the first time I did this.

[@jibbajabba4597]

I found with betaflight disabling air mode and putting it on the same switch as the modes switch (so air mode is disabled in angle mode but on in acro for outdoor stuff - I have a mob7) virtually stopped the sticking to the wall syndrome whenever you hit anything. I keep meaning to try this EMU/PMB but the Mob7 just flies so well and I have limited flying time, but I will one day...

[@JoshuaBardwell]

Disabling air mode does fix it. But then you have to set up idle up to keep the motors spinning at zero throttle.

Hey hope someone can help me out - my first drone is the Mobula6 and I'm unsure about when I should be landing and ending the flight. The OSD says "low battery" after about 40 seconds of flying and then it says "Land Now" with the voltage at 3.3V after just 1 minute of flying. Are there some settings I should change? this is after having done the firmware change to JESC 48khz which is supposed to increase flight time. These are brand new GNB 300MAH batteries so I'm not sure what the problem is. Should i just keep flying down to 3V or will that damage the batteries badly? Cheers

[@Z4nd3r-D]

Hi JB, I notice you are using batteries without cables (not sure on the correct way to discribe); does this work OK? I have the opportunity to get some cheap GNB 300mah 1s without cables but was concerned they would stick out too far or move the COG. Any advise from anyone? Thanks in advance..

Okay...so I know I am super late on this video, but just wondering if anyone out there can help me. I recently got a mobula 6 and went to put emuflight and JESC on it. everything seemed to go smoothly, but after setting everything up after arming once throttle up it goes into a spin of death. The motors appear to be spinning in the proper directions, and I didn't physically move anything around, not really sure where to start trouble shooting....thanks ahead for any help

[@adamdrtina7261]

Hi Joshua, can you help me with betaflight, please? When I connect the quad, main screen works (I can move with the quad and see it) but after I click on some command, the whole betaflight freezes and I have to shut it down. I can't literally do anything including getting into CLI. I've tried to update firmware but that didn't help. Do you have any solution please? Have a good day :)

[@nicholaskerslake3936]

Hey Joshua, giving Emuflight a go. I'm setting up Emuflight LUA script and the pids.lua file has the same name as the Betaflight file hence it isn't working for me. Have you run in to this error and did you find a solution to it? If not is there somewhere I can go for support with this sort of problem?

[@jalkingforjesus]

I tried the PMB emu flight tune for mobula6 and really didn't like it. The quad just felt way looser, particularly on yaw, which felt positively mushy compared to Betaflight. Mind you neither emu flight or Betaflight 4.1 on the mobula6 flew as nicely as my UR65 with 0802 19kv motors, JESC 48khz and a very slightly tweaked 4.1 F3 performance edition PMB tune. For me the combination of razor sharp handling with slightly more momentum is better for my style of flying. Which is not to say that the PMB/Emuflight team aren't awesome, just interesting that I seem to have a different experience to most of the other people who have tried this particular tune.

[@FPVDiverBomber]

Also what's the difference between betaflight and emuflight for these micros. Like what's the filtering diff and pid diff and the actual math in the software. If it's just a different feature set that could be enabled in betaflight is prefer that. Uav tech already showed there was nothing different in emuflight vs betaflight when. It first came out. Is that true still?

[@ProjectMockingbird]

JL FPV Emuflight added new code for Angle mode specifically. It’s got a new way it handles Angle PID’s over the old Betaflight way, new code that handles crashing and wall sucking (it has a “high and low” PID setting based on stick deflection), expo in angle mode, and feed forward in angle mode. It also has a new way (well, it’s the Silverware way) of calculating yaw. It does it around the gravity vector and it is less likely to i-term windup overflow...it does have it’s own downsides, but overall better.

[@NeoAmor9]

This may not be the most relevant place to post this comment. But might be related to both the Emuflight firmware AND Betaflight firmware. Observing from both the Emax Tinyhawk AND the Eachine Trashcan. I have found something that seems counter-intuitive to me about "Crash Flip" or "Turtle Mode". Both micro-copters are completely "stock" as far as their motors and motor positioning. When attempting to flip either forward or backward. Both the two back props, or the two front props spin together as You would expect. And those "flips" are often successful. But when I try to flip left or right. The motor/prop selection for those flips does not seem correct to me. One way, the back-left and front-right props spin together. The other way, the back-right and front-left props spin. All the quads ever do, is just spin around on the floor. They never even TRY to flip over. I ALWAYS have to try to flip either frontward or backward. To even have a chance of success. Seems to me for a sideways flip. It should be either the front and back left props. Or front and back-right props that are configured to spin together. Googled to try and find some way to choose which motors are activated for "flip". But didn't find anything. Not sure if it's the FC firmware, or what. But the same motor-choice is present in both the Emuflight firmware. And the Betaflight firmware. And for both quads. Love Your vids Joshua. You're such a character. Saw the guitars hanging on the wall in this vid. Maybe we'll jam someday. ;)

[@JoshuaBardwell]

If diagonal motors spin then the quad thinks you are inputting yaw.

[@NeoAmor9]

@@JoshuaBardwell I think You're on to something: I prefer kind of a hybrid stick configuration. Not sure if it fits a "mode" definition. But I prefer to have both "two-dimensional" axis controls on the right-stick. Pitch (forwards backwards) Yaw (left-turn right-turn). Which control the quad more on a flat 2 dimensional plane with one stick. Kinda like driving a car. In some sense. Cars do not have anything like "Roll". If they did You'd probably have to carry barf-bags in the glove-compartment. Whichever way I move the right stick. That is the 2 dimensional direction the quad goes. Regardless of altitude. It's just more natural for me that way. Even after a couple years of struggling to "learn" Mode 2 like every One else... The moment I configured the sticks THIS way. I got a huge upgrade in piloting skill. It just "fits" my natural tendencies and impulses. My right hand is the single "driving a car". 2-dimensional axis controls. "KNOWITALL" indeed. DUH! Right stick for Pitch - forward/backward flip. Left stick for Roll - left/right flip. Thanks my friend. You said in a video one-time that people who don't fly Mode 2 "are doing it wrong". Maybe. I know You were being kinda tongue-in-cheek. But I coulda spent another couple years flyin' 20 feet and then crashin' into shit. And then putting the copters away for 8 months until I felt like being humiliated again. OR... I could choose to do it "My Way". I chose the Frank Sinatra approach. ;) And it paid off nicely.
