Flight controller on a wing??? Nooo... wings are for *flying*. You need to embrace the forces of aerodynamics, not fight them with a flight controller!

Excellent podcast! I had a very similar issue with the GPS on my flywoo explorer lr4 with HDZ Freestyle v2. With the USB cable plugged in I would get all the satellites, as soon as a battery was plugged in and the vtx powered on, they would all vanish. I tried to wrap the gps wires in copper tape, reroute away from the VTX, move the vtx antenna, replace the GPS, and more but nothing worked. I moved the gps to the front of the drone above the camera and that fixed my issue. I think HDZ messes with the sensitive GPS antenna.

Well I wrapped the gps wires in copper tape and also mounted the gps on the right side of the quad between the front and rear motor, and it works perfectly, then I also switched to iNav and it works great

My slope gliders are big enough not to be affected by the added weight of RID but many of my powered planes are just over 250g, adding any extra weight is not desirable, using smaller batteries to accommodate the extra weight is the only option. PITA

love you guys. Ivans "Id be as good as Minchan if I just flew as much he did" was prettty funny. Like yeah maybe, but the fact he puts in the work to fly 50 packs a day is the impressive part not the superhuman reaction speed. I also have to say id disagree with this new sentement that all motors feel the same but thats just me. I feel diffrences even between diffrent batches of the same motors, but im also pretty ocd. Keep em coming guys!

of course full respect to Minchan for flying that much, it takes serious passion and dedication. Didn't try to talk him down, just saying that almost everyone could be just as good as him with enough stick time.
