indigo mist
Hey, im having issues with my meteor, it feels very saggy and it feels very spongy, recoverying from a poweloop takes isane throttle. When i fly a full pack it instanly goes to 3.6V(1s). I feel like this was diffrent before.
What would cause this, and how would i go about fixin it.
Its my "training drone" and i crashed it alot of times in the years i had it, maybe its time for a newer one?

How old are your batteries? Did you change any settings recently? PID values or flashing new firmware etc.
indigo mist
No, i dint change any setting

So what could i do to increase performance?
I still gotta soilder the vtx to the camera cable, cause anytime i hit sum it comes loose and i cant see , but thats not tied to the power issue

you're pretty limited as it stands
better batteries are the most noticeable thing
you could also solder the motors for a little boost but then replacing them can get annoying

Those batteries will sag hard when they go bye bye. I only have 1 out of 4 550's of the Lava 1 series left. That one will sag at 2-3 min, so it's just a TS battery now, LOL. Anyway, I went with the 680's Lava 2's. They are 1.5 grams heavier so if your concerned with weight go with the 580 Lava 2's. They are a direct fit into our frames.

I went with new batteries and flies like new
Mine is the updated Meteor 75 PRO 04 version.
south terrace
Same same, I have the 3 in 1 board, you have the 4 in 1.
Digital version is about 7 grams heavier too. IDC, Matrix series have heavier frames and FCs. Takes a good hit and keeps going, haven't had nearly the issues of the AIR 75 flyers

is the o4 version better than the one ii have pperformance whise?
if anything it's gonna be worse because of the extra weight of the o4. and no I think the motors are the same
indigo mist
not because of the o4 ,i cant even run that with my old v2 googles
but those motors with the analog

22KV's on the 04 PRO's digital or analog version
The Matrix series is for a different consumer then the AIR series.
indigo mist
hmm oke

The AIR series, oh you could have fun there, if that's what your after.
AIR 75 Champion edition is built to go zoom zoom
indigo mist
this one ?
south terrace
Yes!!
3 different editions
Champion- highest KV motors, low flight time
Freestyle- lowest KV, most flight time
indigo mist
28000KV goes crazy

Racing falls somewhere in the middle
There's someone on here that put some 32000KVs on an AIR frame
up to your imagination, really
indigo mist
i think with the bt connector i could even run the same old batteries til theire dead
indigo mist
hmm
south terrace
I know right, LOL
indigo mist
yea
i was thingkin about building a 2 inch instead
but i think that will break when i crash

Try hitting full throttle upside down, in concrete, meh. stuff happens
indigo mist
