[safe tinsel]

Rush Tiny Tank

[hidden rapids]

Can you show the VTX tab in Betaflight?

Or just go to the presets tab and search for rush tank and apply the VTX table preset

Then save and reboot

[safe tinsel]

oka ill try that next

[hidden rapids]

Yeah, you don't have a VTX table loaded

[safe tinsel]

now i have a vtx table

but it still shows undefined and 0 for values

[hidden rapids]

Because you have band, channel, and power set to none

[safe tinsel]

Just set band and channel to whatever u want

[hidden rapids]

I recommend you set it to RACEBAND, Ch 8, power 200

[safe tinsel]

it goes up to 350

dont i want like superman vtx

[hidden rapids]

No reason to use max power unless you need it

[safe tinsel]

Just do 200 r8

ok bet

I use second to top

So In my case 650

[hidden rapids]

Put VTX power on a switch, and/or enable low power disarm so the VTX doesn't fry before you start flying

[safe tinsel]

In your case 200

Looks good

Just add low power disarm

does undefined not matter

[hidden rapids]

no

[safe tinsel]

should I only have the vtx on when flying so it gets cooled

[hidden rapids]

Can you see your video feed in your goggles when set to Race 8?

[safe tinsel]

the goggles and radio is in the mail

unfortunately gets here within a few more weeks

[hidden rapids]

I use on until first arm

The VTX will be in low power mode until you arm the first time, then it will stay at the power level you have set

[safe tinsel]

I also have a pit mode switch

[hidden rapids]

If you set it to on, whenever you disarm you will lose video unless you are right next to the quad

So if you crash and disarm, no video

Yes, pitmode on a switch is a good idea should you need to "idle" your VTX while you have the battery plugged in

[safe tinsel]

I need to learn so much more about betaflight

and i need to go outside to see if my gps works lol

[hidden rapids]

Can't do much without goggles and a radio unfortunately

[safe tinsel]

but thats fine. wall decoration for the meanwhile

thank you for the help :)

much appreciated

[hidden rapids]

Yeah, ordering direct from Radiomaster is super painful

Where are you that there were no other vendors?

[safe tinsel]

Canada. Most of our online shops were out of stock and amazon somehow missed their "delivering tomorrow" quota twice so I cancelled from there too

irl shops were mostly digital dji goods

[hidden rapids]

Most of the US shops deliver to CA AFAIK

[safe tinsel]

i honestly thought radiomaster was gonna be the fastest

i was wrong

[hidden rapids]

What did you get? Boxer?

[safe tinsel]

yeh the clear one

gonna put green ag01s in it one day

make it shmexy

[hidden rapids]

https://rotorvillage.ca/radiomaster-boxer-transmitter-elrs-transparent-edition/

It's new, so a lot of places don't have stock yet

Or sold out of their initial allotments

[safe tinsel]

i got all my parts from there very fast shipping

less than a week

im not gonna be too sad if my vtx burns up tho, im planning to go digital at some point

time to go outside and see if gps works lol

[hidden rapids]

https://www.getfpv.com/radiomaster-boxer-radio-transmitter-w-leds-elrs-2-4ghz-m2-transparent.html

GetFPV has it, looks like $18 shipping to Canada

[safe tinsel]

u think radiomaster will cancel my order in time?

i contacted about their stock and I got no reply

[hidden rapids]

RDQ has it too

https://www.racedayquads.com/products/pre-order-radiomaster-boxer-edgetx-rc-transmitter-elrs-2-4ghz-transparent?variant=40213304115313

[hidden rapids]

Probably. How long has it been?

[safe tinsel]

since july 7

so only 4 days

[hidden rapids]

Yeah, they take at least a week to ship

Cancel your order and order from one of the US based shops

[safe tinsel]

wait wait

radiomaster is not US based?

uh oh lmao

yeah ill do that then

[hidden rapids]

They're in China

[safe tinsel]

makes sense why i got a chinese paypal organization name

freaked me out

or should i just wait another few days and decide then to see if they ship it

i got the expedited shipping anyways so once it ships it'll get here fast

[hidden rapids]

You could save $20 and get it by the end of the week if you order from RDQ

[safe tinsel]

i did that.
