Finally got to try manual mode again today.
First try 20.6m/s max down wind. Second try I formatted the card, put a brand new ham_cfg_support file on it (even though I've used the same one for years now), turned everything off and turned the drone on first, then goggles and radio, max speed recorded 20.2m/s. Third try I re-flashed firmware on drone and goggles (didn't feel like it made sense to re-flash controllers) and after pairing everything again and rebooting I turned on goggles first, max speed recorded 25.2m/s (that got me excited for a sec as it was pretty close to 27m/s which should be max if it's really unlocked) but only for a split second when going down wind and slowed down to high 19s right after that so I guess it was just a big gust of wind. Fourth try I deleted the ham file and rebooted everything, then factory reset goggles and rebooted again, then added the ham file back again and rebooted one more time for good measure. Now whatever way I turn everything on I consistently get over 27m/s going down wind. Top speed recorded on the next battery was 28.3m/s. I wish I just did factory reset first before trying all that mumbo jumbo voodoo first
Funny thing is I flew around some buildings before and after speed change and noticed zero improvement in penetration so either 1) the RF part of the hack worked for me since day one or 2) CE mode was really freaking good in 2.4GHz at 100mW. Still feels like the fact that this works is a bug. I hope to be proven wrong again. If one of you that need to turn your devices on in specific order for it to work wants to risk trying factory resetting the goggles let me know if that changes anything. |
