I'm sitting here working on FrankenQuad and I cannot find the backup file I made of the flight controller. More on that in another thread. What I really wanted to do is head outside and get some video from this runcam split.
For those that have not heard of the Split, it is an FPV camera but it also records in 1080P and saves it to an onboard card. I have tested this before just inside my office, but never outside. So, since I can't find the backup file of the flight controller from the testing I did on the bench, I decided to toss some props on FrankenQuad and head outside.
It was quite windy outside today. 20-25mph winds with higher gusts but I don't care, I have to fly something! I put it on the ground, check to make sure it is recording, and boom, we are in the air. And holy hell is this thing touchy! But again, more on that in another thread. Possibly with the video (or lack thereof).
I took the quad up and was flying it around when it came down and crashed upside down. I flipped it over, checked the goggles, all is well, so I do some LOS flying. I head back to my chair and put the goggles on and start to fly, and the video is frozen from right after I took off after that crash. Okay, I reset it, got it recording again and flew some more.
It kept killing the recording, and the video kept freezing up. No idea why. If any of you have had this issue, let me know!
