Popular Post Bob Eisenman Posted August 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2018 The ride to Marblehead’s - Devereux Beach goes along some sidewalk with big old tree root upheavals. It’s better to use the roadway when traffic permits. I wanted to use the Yuneec Breeze drone to take some 'orbit’ video above Marblehead Harbor (at low tide) while staying away from the traffic and crowds at the same time. The public launch was a good place to take off. Devereaux beach is the long Beach along the coastal mainland and the causeway reaches out to Marblehead Neck. Marblehead Harbor is filled with sailboats until around the end of October when they get pulled out for winter storage. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 That Yuneec drone is actually pretty good for the price. It's a little tipsy during the turns it seems, but video quality looks not bad. SlloooooooooooOOooow pan. Slower. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows.....I guess.. You can fly or flat spin the drone (for about 6 minutes per charge) at a point but....as you go higher the control input begins to get choppy and the video feed breaks up. So....the drone has an 'orbit mode' (continuous programmed flight input) of defineable radius and a max speed setting elsewhere. Setting the radius to a larger value (this is my 1st time trying the orbit up high) with a slow max speed should give more slooooowness.....since the circumference of the orbit increases. The wifi runs at 5 GHz wifi. Smaller drones like Tello use 2.4 GHz wifi. At 2.4 GHz a $12 wifi repeater extender is reported to not only improve range but also the video feed and controller input quality. It runs off the USB port of a 5volt phone recharger battery + an app to connect networks. https://www.halfchrome.com/mi-wifi/ The Xiaomi Mi wifi extender / repeater won't work with the Breeze 5Ghz wifi. One Breeze flyer I read about is experimenting with a 5 Ghz repeater (netis WF2710) https://yuneecpilots.com/threads/breeze-range-extender.6001/ 5 Ghz wifi repeaters are not readily found by Google, AliExpress, Amazon etc. Yuneec has just released a new beefier drone than the Breeze called Mantis Q with a HALF HOUR flight time per charge , 4k video, face recognition and voice commands. https://www.yuneec.com/en_GB/camera-drones/mantis-q/overview.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calculation prediction for 1 revolution per minute in orbit mode. Circumference = (pi)*D Circumference = (pi)*2*(radius) At a radius of 32 feet, and at 3.3 ft/sec Seconds=(circumference)/(rate) Seconds=[(pi)*(2)*(radius)]/(rate) Seconds=[(3.14)*(2)*(32 feet)]/(3.3 ft/sec) Seconds=60.9 seconds 1 rpm is (predicted) at about a radius setting of 32 feet while at a rate setting (lowest) of 3.3 ft/sec Yuneec Breeze: predicted rpm vs radius at 3.3 ft/sec Radius=16 feet = 2 rpm Radius=32 feet = 1 rpm Radius=64 feet = 0.5 rpm Note: 'takeoff point' refers to the point in space where the drone operator switches to orbit mode after placing the Breeze drone somewhere in 3d space with pilot mode. In other words the drone sits on the circumference of a circle with the default center set as a distance from the drone.

Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Maybe it’s just me. I get a little motion sick after a long day at work and when low on glucose it seems. I was watching it on a 21” Dell PC monitor. The first spin I was like cool this is pretty scenic! Woo I’m way up hiiiiighhhh! Then by the third or fourth rotation I was like get me outta this whirling aerial teacup ride of upchuckness! Nice location though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should just try the photo function. :o) Orbits are safe flying (in well to do Marblehead) in the sense that the drone doesn't really go anywhere except up and directly above, an Invoice important newbie flyer concern in terms of the single battery...it's a done deal on location after a few minutes. Meanwhile on the ground, music from a live band at the beach house across the street lent a relaxed Friday feel to the endeavor. I thought the orbits were fast too but it was the highlight if my day. There's a point where constructive feedback like yours is sensible but where, after spending a few hundred bucks out of pocket (like on a retail marketed 360fly camera) the central feedback theme becomes 'I hate those curvey fisheye lens lines'...don't post.…or 'it really needs a gimbal....I'm very sensitive to vibration'. True.... curvey lines aren't found in the Mi sphere 360 or that a gimbal really does produce nice smooth video....but the comments rejection on first try for arm chair based non monetary depleted viewers who most often post next to nothing of the same can be irritating. A recent verbal exchange with authorities at another urban location while using an action camera on a selfie stick to see over a wall at an airport location near parked aircraft underscores the central theme that posting content to 'social media' where global viewing by unseen, unnoticed and unfriendly viewers is considered a threat which could have legally adverse consequences for the photographer who may be primarily interested in just capturing a photo of a scene.
