I was pretty into flying back when whoops were new but stopped for financial reasons. Recently, friend got his license and I caught the bug again watching his videos.

Got this Mobula7 and have been having a blast. My old box headset has an awful receiver but I got a crazy deal on some Fat Sharks that should be here soon.

I also just moved to a place much better for flying - I can fly to a park without passing any private property.

I’ve been binging Joshua Bardwell’s videos and, of course, already thinking about what I want to buy next. Thinking about a monitor or a second cheap headset for other people to watch.

I haven’t geeked out this much on a new (or rediscovered) hobby in awhile and instead of spamming my friend, I decided to post here and maybe get this community going.

Anyone else on Lemmy into quadcopters/FPV?

    I’ll mostly be flying freestyle with the mob7 though I’m considering something like a cinewhoop for just cruising around!

    I sure wish DJI would release a headset with a rapidfire slot. I’d pay a premium for it!

      They have adapters that you can plug the module into the DJI goggles. I tried it with a black sheep and I can’t remember why, but I didn’t like it. I think the screen was too small or something.

        I think I remember reading that there’s also a delay with using adapters, too. Not a TON but enough to notice
