My first flight didn't go to plan because I forgot to take the BOB57 out of 'Angle Mode', so for all intents and purposes this is the true maiden flight.
In EP#1 I also noticed my old LiPo's weren't performing well and were a bit saggy and squishy, also, The GoPro Hero 12 was turning itself off mid flight, so I am going to use this episode to test out all of these concerns.
The BOB57 setup with Crossfire RX and O3 Air Unit should be good for a couple of kilometres range in theory, but there has been a lot of reports of brown-outs and random disconnects for folks online. Based on this, I am just slowly checking how my setup specifically is affected by this. So far I have had one disconnect back at FPV Park in EP#1 but I am not sure if that was a true brown-out/disconnect, or just me having it setup wrong. All I can do is keep an eye on how this setup responds over solid ground before trying to fly out over the ocean.
