170kph FPV Mountain Dives & Scenery Surfing | AtomRC DolphinPro fixed wing

 !Please watch with 60fps (maybe set your TV to this instead of 50hz), so it's as smooth as intended!

Had some amazing flights with this bird. Not the most efficient one (in fact about 25% less efficient than its predecessor), but avg speed of 100 kph let's you zip around in the scenery, and full throttle gives me 170kph and a bit better handling in gusty conditions (important in the mountains).

I had to get used to this plane. It's dialed in better now, quite reliable - autolaunches always work, plenty of power even for bad throws (see settings in my initial review or directly here)

INAV 8 still gives me pitch oscillations (or "dolphining" up and down with the nose on cruise mode or RTH modes). From OliverC:
- CG ahead of the factory marks (3-5mm), and 3 mm "reflex" on Ailerons (3mm up trim, supposed to fixe the pitch oscillations)
- I use a DELTA mix with AILERONS (as on the old Dolphin) and just mix in 20-30% of elevator on the VTail - this flies better than stock config with traditional elevator

Landings: can be a bit tricky... I found that "flaring" it (up elevator and 0 throttle) to slow it down makes it land like a stone. So a bit of throttle and not to much pull on elev.

Also might install a "fin" on the bottom to protect the prop on landings (don't want to use folding prop). So far the stock props holds up nice.

Stats: These were 12 flights, 1h 52 mins in the air, 22 Ah, 192 km distance covered

I mostly fly 2x 1300 mah 6cell pacs in parallel (lipos from my 5" drones, 10 mins) and also 21700 based 6cell LiIon with 5Ah for longer flighttimes (around 13mins). You have good ammount of space in cockpit to move around batteries for CG. Long Packs work best.

I still run DJI O3 on this plane, ND16 Filter, Gyroflow Plugin in Premiere with stock settings, (Rocksteady off in O3!)

The Moment That Sold Me on the Creality OTTER lite!

 

From desk tests to a full garage moment – see how the Creality Otter Lite 3D scanner delivers stunning results, even wirelessly! https://www.geekbuying.com/go/9xzkghQz (affiliate link!) 🛒

In this review, I put the Otter Lite through multiple real-world tests to see how good it really performs. Thanks to the WiFi bridge, scanning directly to my laptop was super fast and cable-free – the perfect combo of convenience and performance (but not all PCs have wifi! and the laptop should be fast enough!) Whether you’re into 3D printing, product design, or just love cool tech, this scanner offers pro-level results at a price that’s hard to beat.

DolphinPro Dives - Path of a Hero

 Not been flying a lot in summer.  Either TOO hot or rainy - no inbetween. Also many windy days. And even this one here was forecasted as low winds - but up there on the ridgeline - Gyroflow really had to work hard to stabilize footage :)  

Super happy with my setup now - INAV 8, 2x 6S 1300mah packs. Not ultra long flighttimes - but good punch and sporty flying.

And if I want more time in the air, I use 6S 5000mah LiIon.

...one really good REASON to use the OSMO Mobile 7p!

 With all the built in stablization of modern phones - why would you want to take an extra piece of gear with you? I found out why it is really good to improve shots for my reviews!

STEEP OFFROAD TRAILS - Ausom L2 Max Dualmotor Scooter 🛴

 Got the chance to try this DUAL MOTOR BEAST from AUSOM, which is one of the best value scooters I tested so far. For heavy riders the 2ND MOTOR is a must! Such scooters are normally priced over 1000€ - this one is considerably cheaper! Find out if they had to save on functionality or cheap out on components to achieve this lower price!

...how to make the ultimate longrange DIY pack 🔋(DJIs Magic sauce!)

 Here I show how to build your own longrange lipo battery with exceptional features (large capacity, low weight) and really affordable price while those cells are of good quality (they are used by DJI!). Not sure how long this ALIExpress seller will be able to sell those cells - maybe DJI will stop this at some point? 

My 4cell 3850 mah Packs weigh around 225g! and are good for 30 min flights with my planes or copters. On planes you can easily use 2 or more of these packs for even more flighttime!

Find the CELLS at ALIExpress (but not for Germany...) 
(and make sure to chose the RIGHT size - 3850mah not the 2400 ones!)

Specs:
- charge up to 4.25v
- cut off at 2.8 v (land at 3v under load!)
- continuous 12A are OK, up to 28A possible  (5 sec, use 2P for more demanding copters/planes)

TIPS:
Solder pads: minus pole is easy to TIN (normal solder sticks well here)
+ pole is ALU (with nickle attachment)
Good giude

How Good Is 3DMakerpros MOOSE? (vs Creality RAPTOR)

 

The MOOSE scanner uses blue LED flashes (not laser!) for scanning, featuring AI-powered tracking and alignment. It doesn't require tracking markers—although scanning spray is still necessary for transparent or reflective surfaces. Get your 🫎 Moose here (EU, Affiliate)  or international store Discount Code: ⭐RCS30 for 30€ off!

🔹 Positioning: Ideal as a quick tool for referencing objects in 3D design. It delivers better detail and accuracy than budget NIR-based scanners but falls short of premium laser scanners like the Creality Raptor.

🔹 Creality Raptor Comparison:
- Costs around €1100 (sale) up to €1800 retail
- Offers higher accuracy with laser tech
- Requires tracking points and a powerful GPU
- Best suited for scanning small objects

🖥️ Performance Notes:
- Works best on high-end PCs (e.g., Core i9 285K + RTX 4070Ti)
- Acceptable results even on older laptops
- First test (DolphinPro gimbal canopy) was smooth, though software sometimes stutters and loses AI tracking

🎨 Texture Mode:
- To avoid long processing times, reduce mesh complexity below 100K faces
- Excellent image quality for texture mapping

📦 What’s in the Box (luxury bundle, choose basic bundle to save money as the tripod isn't that great, the turntable not important and you can order a cheap case if you need one)
- Nice carrying case
- Power supply & long USB cable
- USB-powered turntable (no power switch)
- Mini tripod (not super stable)

Difficult Lawn? Here’s How the Luba 2 Performed After 3 Months
