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

After my initial review this April I can now show you 3 month of progress and you will see how well it did on my difficult lawn. See the little issues I ran into, some tricks, easy fixes and hear if I still would recommend this product.

Here's the main review (in case you missed it)

3DMakerPro Eagle LIDAR scanner - see the improvements

Had this LIDAR for 7 month now and have seen a lot of improvement. See the updates for both the firmware and the most recent Software. These days they have reduced the price again, with this link: https://shrsl.com/4wxfx  the Code: RSC15 for 15€ off should be applied automatically!

My Philosophy: Honest, "almost scientific" testing, I test products rigorously and share honest opinions—even if it costs me affiliate earnings. Using my affiliate links supports my work at no extra cost to you! Huge thanks!🙏

AtomRC DolphinPro Review, flights, chase shots

AtomRC asked me to test the DolphinPro - which was an instant "YES" for me - since I love the previous Dolphin! The new one comes with many improvments - here you see all the details - and I took my time to properly testfly it, give you some INAV insights, mods, and STL files.

SPECS / INFO:
Wingspan: 800mm
Length: 862mm
WingArea: 16.96d㎡
Material: EPP
Motor recommend: 2807 1100KV
ESC: ≥6S 50A BEC
Propeller: 8040-2

WEIGHT:  959g (all except battery)

FLIGHTTIME: 21 min cruising around = 2110 mah (2x 1300mah 6S Lipos)
  so 15-20 mins on 2600mah 6S
  ~25-35 mins on a 5000mah 6S LiIon

BATTERY OPTIONS
2x 1300mah 6S Lipo - far back
1x 1300mah 6S Lipo - all the way fwd
1x 5000mah 6S LiIon pack

GPS altough it's just an BN220 and not a modern M10 - acquisation was quick and sats were plenty

Wingspan a bit shorter than old one, denser foam (at least the grey version),
VTails larger, further in the back,
VTail + Ailerons - plenty options! (spoilerons for landing?, Speedbrake?)
Wingfences - instead of downward facing wingtips (which broke easily)
Control rods "beefier" not the bendy wires
LEDs installed
Nose: different options, magnets + screws - no glue needed
Wire channel below battery for nice Video cable install!

TIPS:
SECURE the LIDs (front one comes with a screw - use it!)
Back LID flew away in a highspeed test (140kph)
Use this "AtomRC Canopy locking arm (verschluss nupsi).stl" and a little bowden tube glued into fuselage with a screw.
I use INAV:  7.1.1 (at the moment)
To have correct MAH readings in your OSD (if you use their AtomRC FC) you can set this SCALE (I've calibrated it and it looks accurate now):
set current_meter_scale = 170

Autolaunch settings:
set nav_fw_launch_max_angle = 90
set nav_fw_launch_motor_delay = 200
set nav_fw_launch_climb_angle = 18
set nav_fw_launch_timeout = 10000
set nav_fw_launch_max_altitude = 0
set nav_fw_launch_thr = 1750
set nav_fw_launch_idle_thr = 1300

What a RemoteID Scanner sees and how it works (Dronetag Rider)

This is an interesting look into REMOTE ID and how official organizations can use these tools to secure their operations airspace very easily. It's also really scary as to how easy you can be found as the pilot of something like your consumer DJI drone :)
