A short video from two boys with their (RC) toys.
Experimenting with some low level flying.
I find it hard to move in a straight line.
Just like the lower sensors are fooling the craft where it is heading.
Next time I will try without them.

Nice video.
Cute little boy you've got. It's only a matter of time before he can handle his own drone too.
Yes, it's strange... flying in a straight line is almost impossible at low altitude while the speed is low at the same time.
I experience the same thing and can confirm, that it really helps to disable all sensors.

Yes, I am a little hesitate to disable the sensors, but I might have to give it a go soon.

Very nice video, Your son is going to be race driver with all the 360 turns he was doing

It almost looks like he was a gold digger trying to get past some layers of dirt

Great Video, he will be in the air before you know it!

That afternoon I let him play a little with the MP in a wide open field with only the left stick

Indeed!

Cool video.

Nice little video, love that you have your son there too, like you i'm hesitant to turn off the sensors also. Great job

I've never seen kids clothing like that before but i bet it's one of his favorites lol my daughter is 25 and i'm not a grandfather yet so kids cloths are foreign to me.

Lovely vid mate

No, you probably won't soon.
These are UV blocking clothes. For swimming actually.
Our kids have my wife's genes and don't have much pigment in their skin.
So this is better than having to use sunscreen all day..... (now we only have to do their face).
But I must say it is an exception to see them wearing those outside of the beach
We had a little swimming pool up in the garden that day.

Thanks a lot!

Nice video, i have the same problem, it gets a little better in tripod Mode but still drifting , check the rc calibration also

Even the forward Sensors also?

Thanks a lot!

You're welcome mate

Yeah... when I fly low (and I often do) I always turn of the sensors completely. Of cause you have to be a lot more careful and aware, but the drone actually gets more stable flying forwards in a straight line.

Haha well done. Even frog hunters need some r&r

Montfrooij Posted at 2018-7-1 12:34
Thanks!
Yes, I will give it a try sometimes...
I might....

You are welcome

Very nice video.  
Nice to see a father and son having fun together.
Just couldn't figure out who was having the most fun

Really Smooth Video ! You are Great Monti !

Great video my friend.  Awesome colors and looked like a lot of fun there.  Myself I tend to fly with OA off about 90% of the time.  I notice that the flying is smoother with it turned off but of course need to be extra careful.  I would say about 1300 of the 1600 miles flown with OA turned off.

Aha, super, thanks for the tip, I like to fly low also have to try this, High up there can't be any need for sensors as I see.

Will try this.

Happy flying
