So I want to fly my very first flight tomorrow with my Meteor 85 and I am not quite sure what to do. I know how to pair your goggles with your drone, but I am not sure how you do the same thing with your controller. Also I don’t know which I have to connect firstly. AND I am not sure what to do after I flight, for example if you have to check your battery voltage or how to properly disconnect your controller with your drone… any help appreciated!
Items I use
Drone Meteor 85, Controller Tx12 mk2 elrs version, goggle avatar walksnail hd

yeah
hoary stag
so as soon as you turn on both, they bind
Its as easy as that? Oh wow
And firstly turn onyour radio?
eternal marsh
you first turn on the radio, then the quad
hoary stag
So no throttles are positioned uncorrectly
hoary stag
you first turn on the radio, then the quad
Ok
And you bind your goggle with drone with a button
eternal marsh
i think so, you will have to look up how to do that. do you have your quad with you now?
hoary stag
Yes, unfortunately Its raining, its dark, its cold and i dont have any batteries charged yet
lol

But I already tried it once and got some clear image, had to unplug my quad because it was nearly burning
Im gonna do that again when i will actually get in the air 👍
Ok if everything is bound I just fly
Can i just use a new battery after one got empty? And the goggle notifies you when low goggle bat voltage?
eternal marsh
Ok if everything is bound I just fly
well, you only need to bind it once
then when you turn on the quad and the setup it binds automatically'

mhm
hoary stag
Ok
eternal marsh
have you practiced in a simulator?
hoary stag
Should i check the batteries voltage after every flight? Or is it just fine when i land at 3.5v?
eternal marsh
Should i check the batteries voltage after every flight? Or is it just fine when...
land at 3.5ish
hoary stag
Will it get back to 3.8v automatically ?
eternal marsh
when you land, you just get as close to the ground as you can, then disarm
hoary stag
Like 3.8 is storage voltage
eternal marsh
until you charge it
eternal marsh
no
hoary stag
huh
eternal marsh
leaving them at 3.5 or 3.6 for up to a week is just fine
hoary stag
Oh alright
eternal marsh
so if you intend to fly later in the week, or the next day, just feel free to leave them be
hoary stag
And if you are not gonna fly for weeks just storage charge?
eternal marsh
correct.
hoary stag
Oh, and what about the goggle battery. When should I storage charge it, also after im sure im not gonna fly for longer? (Just asking cuz it wont get fully discharged after every flight)
eternal marsh
Oh, and what about the goggle battery. When should I storage charge it, also aft...
yup.
goggle bats usually last a longer time
since goggles don't draw much current

Oh and i have some problems with my channel selection on my controller. Whenever i select arm for ch1 for example and i powr off and power on again my controller its gone..
eternal marsh
Oh and i have some problems with my channel selection on my controller. Whenever...
what do you mean?
what "channel selection"
eternal marsh
is it in betaflight?
hoary stag
You can setup the „things“ you want to have for arm/disarm, beeping and stuff
You can do it on your radiomaster
hoary stag
Wait ima get my radiomaster real quick to show you what i mesn
eternal marsh
or do you perhaps mean the mixer tab in edgeTX
eternal marsh
Is there any more you have to be aware of when/while/before/after flying?
don't fly around people....
hoary stag
Ok
