You are a credit to the hobby and I hope you never lose motivation to make these videos as they are in such a relatable format. Thank you for all the time and effort. Sincerely.
yeah @nick what Angelos said.
sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Gavin Decker instablaster =)
@Will Kayson Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Will Kayson It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
One of the most trusted reviewer in terms of whoop quads
favorite whoop channel. ty for caring so much about the viewers and what we're trying to find out. you should do the discord PLEASE even just if its to pick your brain or hop in the sim so im not so lonely😅
ill even help (or get one of my much more knowledgeable friends to) help you set it up and make it easier to manage people (behavior) in the discord
Winston Morris Mom want let me have discord
Regarding the range improvement by replacing the VTX antenna: I tried it, it maybe helped. What really fixed the range issue (specifically frsky with multiprotocol) was resetting the Frsky_spi_offset value to 0 and follow up with a frequency fine-tune on the TX.
Also, I found the board I purchased back in March doesn't suffer the sub-3.0volt issue of resetting the eprom
ALSO, I had good results splicing a betafpv C01 camera onto the plug for the camera. Works just fine!
THANK YOU! Was hoping to hear all your thoughts on these little guys and your experiences.
I'd really enjoy a discord with you about micros. I think it would benefit the community greatly.
I put the runcam nano3 in my tinyhawk. I had to change the plug to a male to connect it. It worked for like 5 flights then quit working. I put the stock one back in. Now I need to check it with another VTX I guess just to be sure it's dead... Oh and I'm an old guy that doesn't use Discord, but if it helps people I'm all for it. Thank you sir...
Your wiring for the nano 3 cam is wrong. At the connector it should be Yellow, Red, Black instead of Yellow, Black, Red. That's why the Happymodel replacement is working fine.
Good eyes!
@Nick I noticed this same Difference/oversight/QC issue. with my tinyhawk S after upgrading to the caddx eos 2 on there had same issue. the simplest fixes are usually the biggest head scratchers!
I've been busy, and I'm way behind on watching FPV videos, always glad to see one of yours. Thanks for all you do.
Your antenna mounting on your goggles actually makes a lot of sense ... gonna try it for my back yard flying. Thanks 👍
Thanks Nick!
I recycle all ziplock/static bags within arms reach of my unboxing/repair bench. Easy to mark notes and possible issues and file away. Nothing gets thrown away in hopes that something in the “ hope to repair” bin needs a donor. Happy flying!
Well done thanks Nick, I am focusing on the micros and your channel is my favorite way to learn something and see whats coming down the micro FPV community highway. My youngest child is is 22 and i am blessed to be flying these little birds and learning and flying has brought a lot of joy to me when the shackles of pharoah constantly need your attention. FPV flying is as close as you can get to the front seat of a heli/plane. I am also blessed to be learning to fly while building a real plane with my local EAA chapter and have been talking to other members about using FPV flying and racing as a part of our Young Eagles program. Teaching young people to think with a mission focus similar to every time you fly a real plane and incorporating pre-flight inspections for aircraft worthiness, operating your mission in a safe way and debriefing are assets in young peoples lives that will take them farther with these disciplines of building and operating these little birds as well as life in general. I am not personally against Paetreon and i realize being able to share and give away what you are not using or just want to bless your community with, is grossly over reaching by the PC culture of CZcams Algorithms and totally understand why you need to do something different. It’s whoopin time ;)
Shalom
I added a 100uf low esr cap to the battery leads. This thing rips so hard now. The battery doesn't sag so much now. Highly recommend a cap to anyone who sees this comment.
P.S. Love your videos Nick.
u got a comapre vid ?
Discord would be a lot of time for you, but that being said, I would love it. You are someone that I respect and since I'm new to the FPV world, I sometimes have questions.
Thanks so much for this info! Mob 6 is my first quad and I’m addicted ! I have the fkysky version and the vtx range was about as bad as what you showed, so I replaced the antena with a lumenier micro axii. The video is great but now I’m getting worse rssi signal and get fail-safed every once in a while in my tiny house...hella fun though I can’t get enough! Keep up the good work your videos are greatly appreciated!
When the weather gets a llittle better im getting a whoop!!!! Thanks 4 all the info Nick!!!
7 out of 7 dudes with Tiny Hawk (S,2,2S) were happy after soldering all those lipo's (520/550mAh) with BT2.0 connectors. (And with the 48khz mod some got more than 2 minutes extra flight time) It's worth it !!!
like that with a before and after video same condfitons wouldbe great
Nice job Nick, great info. Appreciate the way you help everyone with these things in our hobby. Gotta love the gear! Jeff
Great stuff as always! Discord could be a good way to bring in a conversation, feedback, or place to host info that would be readily accessible. Another older way would be a forum, but i don't know of any popular drone specific forums. With some of the keyboard forums (geekhack, deskthority) they use a wiki for the readily accessible/easy to find info.
I can confirm that the reset of the flight controller to Betaflight defaults with a battery voltage under 3.0V can and will happen to other boards as well. I have seen this happening to my NBD Acrobee Lite board which is flashed with the latest PMB 4.0.6 Betaflight version (hex from the official website).
That re-set happend to me on my MOB6. I thought i was going crazy lol, because i knew what was there, but now its different. Thank you for sharing what had happened. I got it all straighten out now. Love your videos, you do a great job and service. Thanks again Nick
Great info on everything. I always look for more flight time so the less blades more flight time comment is interesting. I’m already running 48khz on my mobula 6 and get just ove 4 minutes, but more is always better.
@Nick Burns
As with the Tinyhawk S, I also had an absolute total failure with the Mobula 6 (25000kv) :|
The frame is bent, 3 of 4 motors rattle / vibrate or wiggle the motor bells, VTX range indoor 5-6m / outdoor 20-30m, SPI Flysky range indoor under 7m !!!
The extra receiver you mentioned was also in my package.
Unfortunately the Flysky versions weighs 1g more + receiver then 2.2g more, of the 19.8g promised 22g will end up on the scales !!!
To avoid discussions with Banggood, I unpacked the Mobula 6 live in front of the camera.
Would you like to watch my last video how bad my engines sound even without a propeller?
In principle, I only have 2 options, either cannibalize or completely rebuild with almost everything. !?!
What I can use are at least 1 motor + 1 canopy + 1 Runcam Nano 3 :) :) :)
That’s stinks. We can straighten the frame, boil water and hold it in for a bit then set it on the counter. Don’t let us sit on the bottom of the pan
@@NickBurnsFPV
Thanks for the tip
That with the frame is the smallest problem, I already have a Meteor65 here ;)
The other problems are more essential !!!
No matter,
I have now completely changed my whoops to BT2.0 and I am thrilled.
The voltage under load has shifted upwards by 0.2V, e.g. from 3.7V to 3.9V.
And the MyLipo batteries are just brilliant and amazingly cycle-proof, but I only use Non HV Lipos !
29:00 I bough runcam nano 3 replacement and direct solder the cable on the camera ( not cut the wire) it work just fine
We have almost the same gear and in same colour! I got the S version of the xlite . I have the skyzone 02c ones though. Got them just before yours came out .
If you dont already have it banggood do a bag for about £13GBP that has solid foam for the xlite and also fits those skyzone goggles perfect . Really good small compact solid bag . Look it up
I’m using the stock female connector version of the runcam nano 3 in my newbeedrone brushless and no issues thru 60 plus packs.
Another very informative video, thanks Nick.
Smart audio is in the VTX. So switching receivers does not affect it. As for the flysky, we've had no VTX issues that look like yours. But it does come with a longer antenna than the frsky ones. The built-in flysky receiver is absolute garbage but they kindly included a small full-range receiver that added ~1g but had great range.
As for the runcam nano 3, I managed to crash full throttle into a 2x4 and it broke. No visible damage but there is just no picture anymore. Checked all wiring and tested with different vtxs but nothing, so they can break in hard crashes. Unfortunately they are hard to come by these days so I'm still waiting for a replacement.
Great vid! Appreciate the update on the potential negative with the Jesc! Keep up the good work!
Always great content Nick. Good stuff.
Awesome video, Nick! Thanks for all the tips! 😃
About the Discord... Well, I almost never post anything there, but... I would enter. 😊
Nick I have the HDO2’s and am far sighted. I have no problem with my eye lashes touching the lens. Great info video!
perhaps there is thicker foarm for the face so it wont happen with long eye lashes ?
i recently bought a runcam nano 3, to replace my old broken mob6 cam. if you do the replacement pay attention carefully with the bolts, don't switch the bolts for the camera mount to the one that secured the canopy, they're very similar, if you by mistake switch the bolts, the camera wont produce any picture, the bolts for the canopy somehow contact with the components that caused the malfunction
You have a patreon! Hell yeah! Discord ftw, you channel is a niche so I think it will help a lot of people. You are doing great work and always seem sincere and true to yourself. Awsome!
Thank you I appreciate the kind words.
I feel like you do a fairly good job making conversation in the comment section and asking questions in FB groups like owners groups or PowerWhoop group usually gets me answers that I need. Not saying don't makr one, but if it brings extra effort maybe not necessary since I think much of your knowledge is well laid out in thr videos. Fun format actually, sometimes these little topics are good to address but don't need a whole video. 👍
Discord. I'm watching this video for the first time and thinking what a brilliant idea for this hobby. I can't tell you how many times I've needed a resource like what you've described in this video. I will check and hopefully find you on Discord.
It is still a goal of mine. I had hoped to launch it while I have been working from home. I didn't suspect I would be more busy than going to work each day. I still have plans to launch, just need work to settle a bit first.
I had the alternate runcam nano with the female connector. Soldered on my connector so I could use it on the mob6 and it's been through over 50 flights no problem.
Now I got a replacement as I'm building a second Ina microheli frame.... Andi Ben iticed.the camera has changed. The lense is a different shape and clearly glued shut with two Dabs of glue ! Should be focusable also
I did find the connector I used was not the original, in short my wiring was wrong. :(
I saw PH2.0 connectors first used by blade (it was first called MCPX connector in the hobby because of a product of them) and wl toys since the early 2010s or so. Still have my little flybar helis from them (that brought me into the hobby) and love them. So tinywhoop didn't really pioneered that connector
Where those solid pin connectors or the folded/rolled pins?
@@NickBurnsFPV Don't know but they are solid, not hollow like a saw before and the cables are (badly) hand soldered
@@NickBurnsFPV Oh do you mean if the cables are crimped on? I believe so but they made an additional solder blob over the connection
@@NickBurnsFPV I have one in my collection. It's definitely solid pins.
@@VincentFischer Both are important. Although for a time we can get away with both rolled pin and crimped.
Great video, keep doing what your doing. Thanks!
Hey Nick, great video very informative and useful information. Would love to see a Discord channel if you can fit it into your schedule!
Great info video and man your flying skill is epic!!!
Thanks for sharing all of the info!
thank you for all the effort in making informative videos
I found the ph2.0 with solid pins on banggood that you have to solder your own wires on.
I'm not a discord guy and I really appreciate your vids being here on youtube.
Same for me.
You can get PH2.0 solid pin connectors at digikey.
Rumor has it that GNB will come out with a PH2.0 replacement in Feb
I’ve had a Crazybee F4 Pro v2 (not Mobula6) do the same thing. 😩
Got a small battery powered fan at Walmart for cooling a vtx on the bench
I was experiencing the firmware reset issue for the first few days using the mobula 6 with stock batteries. I got it most often when a battery was ejected from the quad in a crash. I actually added two small rubber bands to keep the batteries in and allow for some RDQ 525 mA 1S cells to be used (rotated 90 deg to the stock batteries.) You can definitely tell some sluggishness with the heavy batteries, but i'm not good enough for it to matter.
Love the infomercial by Nick!!!
I like the way you got it set up so you don't get bots attack your giveaway the job.
@Nick Burns. after listening to your video I think you are right we need a central place to store data. I think discord is not a good place though as not everyone is a part of discord. Like I might be on your discord but not JB or RR's discord as an example. I was thinking I will start a drone wiki (like wikipedia but for drone info). What do you think about that idea? If you are interested I would be happy to make you a co-admin on the site because you are so knowledgeable.
As I dive in deeper to discord I can see where its no better than other resources. I don't know what I would be a good admin, my time is so limited and being slow editor wouldn't be in the wiki's best interest.
@@NickBurnsFPV wiki it out off off testing and long term experience , logging can help allot with dates , this that happend , after change this its better in this way etc, keep updating like facebook line but per drone , where people can share in timeline the drone expertise and mistakes etc.
dude were you born a legend or did you just become one over time ,.. I see the notification .. grab a cuppa and love getting all the info .. cheers nick ... do it !>>> Discord
No legend here. Just another dude, dad, husband, son and brother. I do appreciate the kind words. I hope the talkie talkie vid was useful.
@@NickBurnsFPV every vid you do is useful. .. ive got 8 beta fpv 19000 kv motors and looking to build something to it .. > any idea > ? 65mm looking for props and FC help .. any preference or just something that would work
@@fpvnme4845 I would build something like the "ultimate mobula" video, 75mm whoop. FC could be the mobula 6 FC or the new betafpv 1s board. My 40mm prop preference is the gemfan tri blades.
I appreciate the videos ... like your style of videos and keeping it simple and to the point ... I fly 5” and just getting in to the micro flyers currently flying a tiny hawk S and thinking about upgrading the camera on it
Try the TH2, camera is good and that 200mw VTX makes all the difference. It's a fun Acro outside as well, it will dive haha.
very helpful
Hello, thanks for all information that help us. I try to understand with my English from French. 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for making this video I broke my Mobula 6 and I can’t get parts because of the China thing keep up the videos
bt2.0, xt30, xt60, xt90
if it was an xt15, it would be the standard for micros
Gday Nick, very awsome summary and great way to have a secret ga, Discord would be great with you in it Nick, its a community place to chat and ask questions and to be able to ask you questions about micro's would be very cool considering im on the other side of the globe, Discord is very awsome for pilots not on facebook as well, great job mate.👍🛸
Could you do a video on the different solder connections on tiny whoop boards and the proper way to solder them. We burned a board because we didn't push a wire through the hole style connection, and we were told (my wife and I) that it wasn't getting the proper amps because it wasn't soldered correctly
Like Discord but hate for you to spend time there rather than your great reviews. Keep up the great work. Did you lengthen the throws on your X-lite? I loved the form factor but I've gone back to my trusty X9D with full size gimbals. Waiting for someone to make the next killer radio with full size gimbals. Tried a lot of others all up to Jumper but switched back to old school cause it works. Tango 2 would have been it for me if I could have added a D8 module, but understand why they didn't go there.
I did lengthen the throws via the threads. Supposedly the new radiomaster radio should be one to look at.
My first moderate crash with my Mobula6 damaged the Nano 3 cam in which it lost it’s focus. I replaced the camera and my next moderate crash damaged the second one also. I hope Runcam fixes this issue because the Mobula6 really needs the Nano 3 to keep it’s performance.
I hear they are aware, we shall see what they do
I’m with you on the 48kHz... I like the flight performance of 24kHz better.
Nick your house is haunted. Lol. Great video. At least I learned something today.
I'm not a patron but I would think it would be a good idea for a discord as long as it doesn't stretch you to thin cause I love the info you bring to the table not to include I love your flight footage but keep em coming and be blessed
You connect camera gnd wire to the v+ on the mobula fc. Replace gnd and v+ will be work :)
Great vid sir keep it up
I replaced my camera with a runcam nano 2 with the same kinda female connector, so i had to solder to the plug the mobula6 came with and works fine.
I bet the non mob6 runcam3 camera needs 5v, where the mob6 version can run on 1s voltage. A fully charged 1s might be just above the minimum threshold, but would soon drop below once you are flying.
thanks for the video Nick!
-The 5 BT 2.0 connectors I bought & soldered onto 5 different 1s brand batteries still seem good Nick. Definitely a bit fiddly to solder but I'm an old noob so surely most people can do it?
-I need to try the jesc upgrade, still haven't done it 😢.
-for me the gemfan props don't break, I use them in the Eachine Novice1 (3blade) & Trashcan (4blade). I've bent a couple but never broken 1 👍, I just bend the prop back & keep flying.
-i would join your discord👌
-i haven't had an impulse to purchase a 1s board, I probably should though as I fly the trashcan on 1s mainly indoors & a a tiny bit outside.
-thats odd about the camera!
1. great video as always. 2. I use the same Frsky radio and yeah I really hope Jumper will come out with a similar style that is just as good because no more FRsky radios for me. 3. Your eyelashes are like mine so the HDO2s will be fine and I highly suggest you get a pair especially what is coming next ;) I have always parallel charged for years now.. as long as you are within .5 v it's fine.. I do 10 bats at a time 1s to 4s and 4 at a time on 6s.. never had an issue.. ever..
Jesc turned my flight times from 2-4 min on the 6 and 4.5 on the 7 love it!
nice. more stick time is always good.
on the mobula 6 19 or 25 k ?
playmatee1 25000kv
I wonder if it's the difference of an added regulator. Maybe the mob6 part is 3.3-36v and the runcam one is strictly 5-36v. Haven't had that experience yet . Maybe they underclock the mob 6 one so it draws less current. I'd say throw a meter in series with the power and check the current.
Awesome video. Full of information. What you think about the jumper T8SG plus V2? Really enjoy your channel Nick you rock. 👍👍👍👍👍
i would deff be interested in a DISCORD thanks nick i think that would be awesome as your channel is my fav on youtube thanks nick
I flashed jesc on my king kong et 115 v2 and I crashed on my first flight, the quad just felt different so I think you might be right.
As always another good vid mate
Hey Nick, I see the Rotorgeeks battery in the video. Cross boarder shopping I see 😉. Do you have an affiliate link to Rotorgeeks as they are a local shop that I will be using for my supplies. One way I can give a bit of support to the great work you are doing.

Nice video! I am looking to get those 03O's
looking great nick :)
I’d look at your local hardware store for a paint pen, I’m sure they have a white.
Woot!
i’ve had my mobula6 board wiped twice since i’ve owned it first time was down to around 3.0v just cause i wasn’t aware of the issue second time i was a long walk away trying to get back dropped it down to 2.8v. got the skyzone o2c really want the 030s...
I was flying mine and it got below 3 and , it reset. I didn't know what to do, didn't know about beta flight. after 4 days of hard learning it is working again and set up better for me than before.
Nick I have one of those "Mobula6" but I can not get it to fly I get to beta flight and i'm lost I don't know what to do ,, I wish someone would make a video start to finish on binding your quad to doing the betaflight but make it complete...start to finish . Or have a live section where you could text or e-mail to get some positive help..
a discord would be good. talking is much better than having to go back and forth with messages.
Hey Nick kudos as always! Great stuff...question.....what are those Frankenstein 75mm builds? Trashcan frame with Mob6 guts?? Do you have vid on that conversion and flight test?? If it’s anywhere near as smooth as Mob6 out of the box imma try it...tinkersville!
Its this czcams.com/video/6LcPxY8dL1c/video.html basically a mob6 with mob7 frame and props.
Thanks for the quick reply! Too easy I’ve got a second Mob6 and a V2 frame I purchased a while back...what I don’t have is the HQ whoop props...I do however have a few spare sets of props for my Mob7 and Trashcan...I’ll try those and see if I get anyway near the performance you did (flt time) and let ya know....
So...built it...v2 frame and my some spare Mob7 props! Did you have to add extra grommets? I did IOT get it to sit down tight enough on the frame and hold in the FC....it flies great though started having some RSSI issues out of the gate! Tad frustrating...BUT...took it down into my garage (two underground levels, I live in an old converted industrial mill) and did some proximity / slalom work...I was getting about 4:30 on some really tired slightly puffed 600mah GnB....and a whopping 5:35ish on both brand new Emax 450mah batteries I had on hand...wow...I did flash the ESC with JESC to 48hz....impressive...granted I’m just not driv8ng it as hard as you do indoors but still....
I’m having the same issue your having with your Camera and vtx (with wires spliced instead of directly soldered to each other). Except I’m having that issue with the HGLRC nano vtx. The Betaflight osd shows just fine but no video. Weird!!
Interesting this is the first confirmation I have had. Thank you
I should add that I was using that new BetaFPV lightweight FC also and not the crazybee FC
The wiring is diff. The vid and grnd wires are swapped.
Ref the VTX power - there is a video on CZcams of a guy measuring the output at different settings - and it gets up to 200+mw !!!! How long it would last at this power is debatable :-).
The discord chat could be useful, and tying it to the patreon should filter out the trouble makers pretty effectively.
Maybe this will help someone. I was quite satisfied with my stock Mobula 7 flying indoors on 1S. I upgraded it to 4.1.2 and thought it flew slightly better (I had been noticing some twitchy movement). I then put on JazzMav 16.77 24Khz (per Albert) and I got very bad circular oscillations and motors not arming consistently on 1S. The arming issue disappeared on 2S and it ran very smooth. I took another of Albert's suggestions and turned on Vbat Pid Compensation (BF-Config) and it made the 1S oscillation much better, but reduced flight time. I'm now running only 2S with 50% throttle cut and it's better than 1S before I made all the changes. I went through exactly the same issues with a second Mob7, and looking back I think my 1S bats were getting weak - maybe part of the problem...
Larva x HD comes with 2 or 3 lipos? Your review differs from the listing
I got three. I could have been a packing error. I go off what came in the package rather than the listing. Listings can be a bit unreliable.
Great stuff. I want to switch my ur 65 to a BT connector. Also my motors, going to try your suggestion on using the mobula 6 motors.
I just set up 2- 300mah 1S GNB's and my US65 to the new connectors, just today in fact. lol
@@Heiple2007 I didn't know you could run two, 1s batteries on the ur 65
Hey Nick since you posted this has there been any updates or work arounds regarding the low voltage “dump” the Mob6 boards are doing when driven down below 2.9v? Occasionally I get a Little overly enthusiastic and fly it close to dropping! I just ran into the problem mentioned in the last few days...TWICE...oops on whoops! Let us know if you come across any fixes...as always great job...you and the family be safe, stay healthy!
No, only development is HappyModel has posted cli dumps for it.
Nick Burns thank ya sir....btw any word on the uz65 from eachine....looks like they’re trying to one up the Mob6...a la their Trashcan vs the Mob7...better spec’d blah blah blah....likely as temperamental...Mob6 has been great outta the box...config dumps notwithstanding
You are the reason that i bought Mobula 6 (I dont regret it)
I have FlySky version and my video is very good for micro quad, I dont see any problems with my video reception.
Keep up with good work.
I’ve been saying it for a minute now that when you go to 48 it flies like junk
Thanks for the content
Thank you for doing this video !!

My wife listens to audio podcasts at that speed too. Its a bit strange but does make great use of the time.
@@NickBurnsFPV hmm I should try that too...
Only listen to "The FPV Show" ( Gapit FPV ) sometimes when im repairing stuff :)
Maybe repairing is also 50 % faster too LOL
@@Cre8ionz. Gapit still around? I haven't seen a post by him a good long while.
@@NickBurnsFPV Podcast has come to an end at Episode 100.. ...Not on CZcams.. Few post on Insta.. think he`s busy working with bigger filming drones :P
@@Cre8ionz. ah I didn't know he was into filming drones. I did watch a number of his flight edits, I was attracted to his color grading and fresh spots.
On the FlySky version, check what the VTX power is set to. I just received a Mobula 6 with FlySky receiver (should have been FrSky btw, something went wrong there) and with VTX set to 25mW, the actual output power was about 1mW, according to the RF Power Checker V2. Only when selecting the 500mW power setting in the OSD Smart Audio settings, did the measured power get somewhere close to 20mW. So it seems something's messed up with the FlySky version of this board.
Ah, which version of betaflight did your board come with?
@@NickBurnsFPV 3.5.7 so it can't be a VTX tables issue. Also came with Flit14 receiver included in the box, with extra piece of paper on how to set it up. It also came set with Smart Audio power level at 500mW, which I changed to 25mW, because I thought that setting was wrong. Then I went flying, and had poor VTX range, like you. I changed back to 500mW setting, and the range was much improved. Then checked with RC Power Checker, and found that with VTX set to 25mW, and quad armed, the power was around 1mW only. With power set to 500mW, the reading was close to 20mW, so much more like you would expect from a 25mW VTX. Some HappyModel voodoo, it seems.
@@rc-fannl7364 Really great information. Thank you so much.
@@NickBurnsFPV Glad to help. I also had very bad range on the SPI receiver, FlySky version. Had to install the bundled Fli14 receiver, which is plug-in, due to the already soldered on wire harness. It's a tight fit, and add around 1.5g weight, but now I have no more range problems.
@@rc-fannl7364 You are my hero! I used VTX index 0 in BF 4.1.7; it worked but was nothing like the gorgeous videos Nick Burns have flying around. So I took your advice above and added levels 1 and 2; according to Happymodel they are 100 and 200mW ( www.happymodel.cn/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/BTFL_vtxtable_20191028_104831.zip ). The 100 is as bad as "25", but the 200 is sooo much better! Thank you! I have the Flysky board.
