Apparently, most Tiny Whoop pilots fly autolevel. This was news to me, but hey, when in Rome... so I fly my Betaflight Newbeedrone Acrobee in Angle mode.
If you use Betaflight angle mode, but your quad doesn't hover level when you center the sticks, I'm going to show you how to fix it. You need to calibrate and trim your accelerometer.
If you have a Betaflight-based Whoop, you MUST check out Project Mockingbird. I haven't tried it myself yet, but I've been told by one pilot that it comes as close as possible to Betaflight matching an Inductrix-based Whoop's handling.

* https://www.facebook.com/groups/BlackSheepLOUNGE/permalink/1098808670604902
* Bug found in Tango 2, causing a 30hz update rate to all external modules
* TBS pulled down several firmware versions having this bug
* Firmware 1.23 does not have the bug but it was also pulled down (not sure why)
* Firmware 1.21 is the latest one currently available but it has a different bug that limits output to 50 Hz

47:03 - Betaflight 4.3 is coming soon! Here are some highlights to look forward to!
* RC/FF Improvements by Chris Thompson - https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight/pull/10650
* Essentially the code for RC Filtering has been reworked, and some bugs have been fixed in Feedforward. Now you can go from really low smoothing, to auto_smoothness values that are really high for extremely cine-smoothed inputs.
* KarateBrot has a new SDFT, which is a new digital fourier transform with a better bin size, which will allow much better notch filtering.
* Currently the dynamic notch is a single notch, using a larger bin size so it is less accurate, and would scale based on a fixed Q factor so would be larger at lower frequency and smaller at higher.
* The new dynamic notch has twice the bin count, allows for up to 5 notches, and lets you define the bandwidth of the notches instead of relying on the fixed Q like before.

I had to reduce my P gains by about 10% when going from BLHeli 13.1 to 14.0. The extra power from the motors is most obvious on full throttle punchouts. Before BLHeli 14.0, I didn't get as much of that, "rocketing into space" feel (since I'm on 3S). Now I'm at least starting to get it.

How does DJI's FPV system hold up vs. analog? DJI has higher resolution and lower latency, at least when you're at close range. But what happens when you start pushing range? Let's find out!
