Angle vs Acro Tiny Whoops In 2023
In 2018 It was clear that I needed to fly Angle Mode with my Tiny Whoops in order to perform my best on the race track. In 2023, we have a whole new level of tiny whoop. Is angle mode still the best way to race around a track? Or has acro mode shown up to take the tiny whoop racing crown?
Today we take a look at Both a Mobula6 HDZero and Meteor65 (2022) and compare how they perform racing around a tight technical track in both angle mode and acro mode. Which quad will reign supreme? What mode will be crowned the champion for racing?

Today we use our Part 107 commercial pilots license to capture drone videos using a DJI Air2S photography drone. We're testing the ability to use an EUC to get around town, setting up quickly for capturing drone videos and not having to worry about where to park a car. I don't typically take DJI drone videos.

    I havent flown since 2014, most was still flying brushed but brushless was getting pretty hot, FPV was still fairly new...fastforward to today. A friend sent me a little shit drone, ya know the type, for beginers not knowing I use to be a pretty good pilot on the sticks. Through lots of research and ton of videos I see everyone is acro over angle, but what happened to those with real skills and fly in 3d mode? I was shocked to hear people claim they are flying inverted in acro, and after watching many videos I have come to the conclusion that most people just do not know what it means to really fly inverted. So this is what I am going to be doing, bringing back real 3D acrobat flying just to show those new to quad flying what real inverted flight...I cant wait to blow some minds at the top of a power loop I set at the top literally upside down and hovering at the top of the loop, then finish it after a slight midloop hover...so much more you can do in air with 3D over acro......FYI, I am just south of Detroit, small town on the river, if you know then you know....maybe see ya out and about

    • @JohnEFly
      @JohnEFly 5 месяцев назад

      it's definitely much harder to learn to ride an EUC than a onewheel. So don't worry about it! The biggest thing for me is that you can stand stationary on a onewheel, but not an EUC. It makes it easier to learn what it's like to balance. The EUC you have to get over your fear of it moving to make it easier to balance, but it's hard to get moving when you can't balance. Just keep at it, and once it clicks it becomes second nature, and honestly I find it easier to ride around than a onewheel. Good luck!

      hey, things have changed a bit since the original build. The battery inside this at the time of filming was 7S20P. Since then I have added 3 more internal batteries (all 7S, one 20P and one 16P but with 21700 cells). All 3 are wired in parallel. I then also have an external 7S24P battery which I can connect to an expansion port I added in case I need the extra capacity. The total battery is about 4.6Kwhr internal now with a 1.8Kwhr external battery I can attach when needed. All of the batteries are using Daly BMSs.
