FX-61 - Lost Craft ALERT!! - My critical INAV error!
#fx-61 #gogglesx #fpv #speedybee #inav #elrs #walksnail
Testing new FPV aerials on The Walksnail GogglesX and comparing it to the stock setup on the GogglesX a certain feature unknowingly activated in INAV 7 has resulted in the loss of the FX-61. This was the first FPV plane i built using INAV and one of my all time favorites.
Now its time for a new build!

Sucks you lost your FX-61 to an inaccessible location. Such a nice bird. Did so many things right, just one tiny mistake. 😕 A mishap with RTH is more common than some people will admit. RTH can be tricky, as with every selection there are pitfalls that could lead to a possible issue. It's an area of config that should be checked based on flying location and type of flying intend to do. Similarity, not selecting correct config profile based on battery type (or size) can also result in less than ideal flight. Great tip on getting GPS lock. I recently picked up a FX-84, the FX-61's smaller sibling.
@@AerialWaviator I think I will build another one eventually like I said that bird was my first real iNav build and has many battle scars over the years. I was actually thinking of rebuilding it with a new body a few weeks ago. At least if I get another I know it will perform flawless from the maiden as I will always have the setup and configuration I used. I totally agree every flight your RTH and failsafe settings should be checked as per location flying. The smaller fx-84 plane is also a great bird!
How far did you get when you used 1.3 ghz ?
I'd be interested to know too.
@@nellodude I never really tested it fully but best I did was just over 10km out with good signal on both 1.3 vtx and 915 elrs. I did just recently do a range test using the 5.8ghz alpha 10 watt vtx which I can’t upload due to legalities. It went out to 10km with good signal no breakup with stock aerials. I did a review on it while back called Akk Alpha Series. It’s a beast but not very efficient
@@stonesrcchannel Ok thanks I just thought the area might be bad for RF I have a spot in Vic where I have been out 70km but another that I struggle to get past 15 km (on 1.3 ghz with high gain antennas) I have never been past 11 km on 5.8 ghz and I was wanting to get Walksnail as well but am disappointed in your distance. I would recommend the TrueRC x2 air for the goggles but I really think you would get better range using a ground station receiver higher up than using goggles with the TrueRC X-Ray antenna but it depends on what you consider long range. The best advice I can give is to launch from a slightly higher location (even 3 meters higher than surrounds) Good luck mate.
@@nellodude I don’t think the area I fly is great for range as there is a quarry just behind the hill I fly from. I am now in need of a new spot as works have started where is fly. I do plan to get the x2 airs for the headset someday and I agree the ground station does have its benefits which I may even look into someday with antenna tracking. Thanks for the tips!
Bummer, hang in there.
Are you near Cairns?
@@planet43 yes you know the area?
Really sorry you lost this plane. We all been there. Part of the game. A lot of speculation in regard to what actually happened. When you first built it did you ever test RTH and observe the behavior of the aircraft all the way back to your takeoff location? Also after every launch you should check RTH prior to flying.
@@IanF-FPV yeah rth worked flawlessly it was the fact I had linear decent active and because of that RTH was on a gradual decent back home with the hill in between. It is a function in iNav I usually have turned off but in this case it was on.
Bad luck on losing the wing, I have one of those, they fly so well too. I have the Use Linear Decent option but the option underneath I set to 500 m just because I feared such a situation. You might also want to use the backtrack option for 500m so the plane will attempt to follow the route that took it out of LOS and hopefully you would have recovered video.
@@Caroline_Tyler yeah I also use the backtrack 500m on all planes with linear decent switched off. This plane for some reason I missed that it was different from the others. Bad mistake on my behalf. Anyway time for a new build!! 🥳
Hate when that happens. I've lost 2 drones that I built. It's okay to cry since you're by yourself. Just don't let your kids see you.
@@mvs7779 My kids did see me cry 😢 but at the same time my wife seen the lightbulbs of wonder flashing around my head as I was thinking of my next build.
What is the kv rating of the bldc motor ?
@@letsseehowofficial9981 it comes with a 1406 2600kv motor
@@stonesrcchannel thank you so much sir. And what's the size of propeller?
@@letsseehowofficial9981 2 blade 5x5 prop
Thanks for the video. Just bought the same goggles and vtx unit but trying to figure out how to attach to AtomRC 405 Navi. Hope it as simple as your set up.
@@PeterBrown-o4k It’s been a great setup for me. My only complaint is lack of range from the goggles which I have currently fixed using patch antennas. But other than that very happy with the Walksnail system. Thanks for watching.
Very good stable plane. I’ve had 211mph out of mine 6s 😯 so your 200kph is can easily be done with the correct set up. And yes, mine is 211MPH not kph. I use a 70a esc and 2000kv motor. Check it out and how I launch on my page.
@@ttucker2073 that's amazing awesome job! I'm not after record breaking speed just a craft that flies well and can do easy 200kph. But your Alpha is very impressive!
BIT rate. A byte is eight bits. I.E an eight of the bitrate.
@@m3chanist sorry I’m not sure where your going with it, little confused 😕
@stonesrcchannel in the video, you talk about the byterate several times but what you are describing is the bitrate. They aren't the same thing. Bitrate, pronounced: bit rate. Byterate, pronounced: bite rate. You use the later while talking about the former.
@@m3chanist oh I see yeah mis pronunciation with the word my mistake but I’m sure people will understand what I’m taking about.
@@stonesrcchannel No worries, great flying by the way, looking forward to doing some myself when the weather improves here in NZ
Wow nice picture for analog, Surprising ! Could have only been better if you could see the plane, but ya the little bugger is hard to see. lol
@@landlocked4771 it's going HD system for its next upgrade. But yeah it's not a bad picture at all for analog.
such a good plane to fly,,👍👍👍
@@sarangmixtv8757 I'm happy with it so far 176kph is still fast but next video hopefully faster close to my goal of 200kph
@@stonesrcchannel wow,,almost there brothe,,24kph more,,lettss gooowww..👍👍👍,,you can do it brother..
It lands very fast as well, doesn't the landing damage the model?
@@narenana the ground is pretty soft no damage. Alpha Strike gets unstable under about 50kph
wow,the video is very stable brother,,so nice 👍👍👍
Could you try adding a lidar and try auto landing on this with inav?
@@narenana yes most definitely I have never set that up yet but I have thought about doing it on my long range planes.
I have been doing autolandings on my sky surfer last few weeks and not been able to get the absolute right parameters. The touch down gets missed by about 10-50 feet on each attempt. But thrilled to see your build. There is so much space to place all the electronics and you have done a very neat wiring job!
@@narenana thanks 👍
Gday mate, When you connected to Inav just after reading instructions, Saying to hold down boot button when connecting with usb, You didn't hold the boot button down, Do you need to hold the boot button if not updating firmware. Come from betaflight, first wing FC, Just a bit confused by the steps....Not even together yet just received and going through the instructions and watching your great tutorial video. Cheers Jason.
@@QuadographyAustralia1965 You only need to hold the boot button in when wishing to update the firmware. That puts the flight controller into DFU mode for updating FC. Just normal connect for setup or tuning etc only need the FC to be plugged in via USB. Thanks for the comment any help just ask.
@@stonesrcchannel Thanks for that and the quickest reply ever, that's what I thought, but confusion set in. I'm just waiting for a T1 Ranger Twin motors, I don't want differential thrust, so hopefully I set it up properly. Cheers mate.
@@QuadographyAustralia1965 Good luck that. Personally I would try the differential thrust just my opinion as it helps turning. I was planning on a twin motor build someday using differential thrust. Good luck hope all goes well with it.
Do you by chance have a copy of your initial settings others could use to push into the CLI and get the setup you like? For those of us just starting out it would be nice to have the same basic default settings as you, same OSD, inputs/outputs, rth, takeoff assist. I’ve been watching you for quite some time and I would like to see what you use as your default setting in iNAV if possible
@@iamsoulcandy Thanks for watching I will see what I can do regarding this. Obviously to just copy everything from cli is not really recommended unless you are using the exact same plane and all hardware included weight would also need to be very close just to copy all settings. Saying this copying OSD and other basic setup should not be a problem. Do you fly an fx61?
Heres the OSD setup i use on it although now it runs a Walksnail Avatar HD FPV system now so these most probably will not work if your running any analog FPV system.

hello i have one question, what happen when u turn off your google X during the update ? I did it and im now stuck in a black screen. How can i do know ? tank you for your help :)
Its important not to turn off the goggles while updating as it can brick the system. It sounds like what you have done. My best advise would be to try reinstall the firmware again using the step in the video and if that won't work you may need to contact caddx to see if there is a solution to unbricking it. You could also ask on the Walksnail or Caddx facebook page as they seem quite helpful too. Best of luck i hope you can get it resolved. Please let me know it reinstall fixes it or not.
I unplug the vtx during update then I just start update procedure again and everything works.

I bought goggles x in May. If you also need analog they’re a terrible choice. Lately I use Sky04X pro and the walksnail vrx. Don’t hold your breath for that “upgrade”
My friend, there's a nice repository online, "walksnail dawt app" that stores all Walksnail firmware. Excellent source for all Walksnail products, I've found, and a better UI than the Caddx site. Just the other day I pulled the newest firmware for my Moonlight 4k's and Goggles X, as well as the new beta app for the goggles. Just wanted to share!
Yes that’s right I forgot about that page. I can open it but won’t let me download anything for some reason. I have tried everything on my devices to download but I have but never been able to download anything. So I’m not sure what’s going on there.
Hi, I am working on a similar build in a F550 With pixhwak 2.4.8. Radio control is through ELRS RP3 reciver and a Radio master Pocket Transmitter. My transmitter and Reciver is connected as i can see the C in the top right corner of the Lua script but not recognised by Ardupilot. I have chenged the flight channel to 12 but still it is not working, Is there any particular reason that you underwent ?
know
So sorry for late reply hopefully you have it worked out by now. Sounds like you may not have the wiring correct from the reciever to pixhawk. Make sure the tx is going the rx and rx to tx from reciever to pixhawk. Mine is setup on serial 4.
Would you recommend this FC and Camera for an Eflite Opterra? Getting it down is hardest part of flying the Drift, it's made to loiter, and does it well.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes I think the FC would work well on most planes but if going larger wingspan I would only recommend the 1s lite for tight builds like the drift. I would suggest the moonlight camera , avatar gt longer range or v2 pro best cameras although most expensive than the 1s lite.
@@stonesrcchannel The Opterra does have enough room for the larger version of the SpeedyBee F405 Wing, the Moonlight kit is on my list - I absolutely want clean onboard 4K recording to SD card. I have HD02's already, and the Walksnail VRx will clip on those, I don't need the high frame rate for what I want, duration and a quiet prop are more useful for me. Looks like a lot of retailers don't have the VRx + Moonlight kit in stock at the moment, but do have the VRx + 1s Lite, so I might end up with the 1s in the nose, and a Moonlight in a belly-turret style gimbal housing. Do you know if there a way to set one of the spare switches on the controller to adjust the video transmitters output level? 25mW is perfect for the local club flights, but there's some areas where the signal drops out, and it'd be great to be able to flick a switch and get higher power when needed.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes I have thought about that exact same setup for the VTX power but have not found anything just yet that suggests it can be done just yet. I don't see why it can't be setup to a switch or even set as dynamic power, a bit like elrs dynamic power works, that would be great.
Most reports indicate the CG nubbins are too far back, by about 3 to 5 mm. A little nose down helps penetration, especially if using small battery.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes I have heard this too although when I check the CG it definitely flies best a little nose heavy indeed.
Geeze, that's tight, just had the thought until I watched your video, might just stick with the Kopilot. Well done, Nice job.
@@QuadographyAustralia1965 it's tight but works well. Thanks for watching ,👍
The Kopilot just fits, works as advertised. BNF version inc camera is good 'My First Wing'

I just picked up my Goggles X, and a couple Moonlight 4K kits, also, after a decade of analog flying. My choice of Walksnail over DJI was easy for me: DJI's AeroScope system, and how it was used in Ukraine. HDZero isn't quite what I was looking for, that is to say a proper HD filming solution to replace my HD cameras on my quads and planes. But the biggest selling point was the HDMI input on the Goggles X's, as I have a ton of models with analog Tx's that I don't want to/can't afford too replace, lol. But so far, I've just been taking both sets of goggles (analog and X's) to the field, as the only analog module solution I've seen is goofy, really goofy. I see you've got the lens covers and Fat Strap as well - I went with the "Pinup" style, lol. There's a replacement foam surround I've installed from BG that has solved the light leak issue for me. On a Mario 5 frame, I've had nothing but great performance so far. Even on a fixed wing Penguin, it's been a rock solid setup! I haven't tried the Moonlights in the dark yet, but have to imagine they'll be as good as any of my GoPro's or Insta360's for footage. Thanks for your review, Stones!
@@GhostRyderFPV I plan to get the new Avatar Gt and set up a gm3 gimbal on a long range build. The head tracking is what I'm really keen to get into with these. Cheers happy flying
wow,awesome brother👍👍👍
@@sarangmix397 thanks bro they are a cool goggle for flying with
Loved the video! Just wanted to throw this out there (totally fine if it's not a good fit!), but I'm a video editor and I sometimes help creators improve distribution by making their content a bit more snackable for viewers. Think catchy intros and outros, or even some engaging short clips! Would love to chat if you're interested.
Hi thanks for the video editing tip much appreciated as it is something i really enjoy doing for this channel and our family you tube channel "The Stones Life". I love to hear tips and ways to improve videos especially over on my other channel as i try to put more effort into those videos for our family history please check those out if you can.I would be happy to hear of ways to improve for sure.
@@stonesrcchannel Sure, I sent you a.mail.. kindly have a look
do you have a tutorial to unlock all modes?? For longrange
@@Biscuit_The_Crazy to unlock the extra power just go to caddx download centre on their website and download the FCC Unlock Procedure unzip the package and read the note on how to install it. You will unlock 1000 and 1200mhz plus 8 channels.
I will have a video on this soon but it’s pretty self explanatory once to unzip it and read the “read me” file.
@@stonesrcchannel ok thankyou 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This flight controller has almost ruined me. But i have a couple solutions for people that may have same issues. #You can ONLY go into dfu mode in inav. If you want to use ardupilot mission planner, you need to use inav to flash ardupilot firmware. (eg. save ardupilot firmware to computer and click load local) #Unplug your receiver etc or you wont enter dfu mode. #After setup, I wasnt getting any signal actually going to servos or motor until i downloaded the firmware off the speedybee website.
So the micro sd could do with an extension cable 😂
@@m14srv yes indeed!
I'm curious, why do you feel the need for rave music in this informational video?
Keep going you’ll easily get over 3 km with the stock setup. Don’t be a chicken. I was using a 5” quad with the HD V2 single antenna (foxeer stubby) and stock Goggles X unlocked. With the patch you should be get like 7km. I will test this shortly when it arrives.
@@Gowieee cheers mate thank for the comment. I'm currently looking at the true RC X2 patches for it. I will retest when I get them to show the difference.
@@stonesrcchannel that’ll be interesting for sure. We need more Goggle X content. I see Caddx have “solved” all issues in their most recent post. I wonder what that will look like.
@@Gowieee also I'm keen to get this new Avatar gt 2watts VTX they just released.
I use the vrx receiver and the avatar pro dual antenna tx. I replaced the tx antennas with Hglrc hammers and the top 2 antennas on the vrx with the same 2 antennas and did 6km perfect video. I only turned around as I chickened out. Also I am using 700 mw power output and the stock patch antennas in the vrx.
Awesome thanks for your input that’s great to hear. I’m certainly going to upgrade the RX antennas soon, then I will do another test.
Weeeeeeew..
You'll want patch antenna on your goggles on both two of the receive and the one antenna that gets retransmits from the vtx. Also make sure your vtx antenna have some height to them . Also, 1200 mw has always been rumored to be over powering the preamp. I want to say most people use 700mw
I have a couple of True RC X2 aerials coming I heard they go into the bottom connectors? I’m not sure regarding the retransmits though as to which one that is. I should use another patch antenna on this one to? Thanks for the help.
@@stonesrcchannel on the goggle x the transmit antenna is top left (on your head for reference). Both WS and DJI will ask to have packets retransmitted if the packet is lost or interrupted. If you only use an omni and are try to fly far your re-trasmit antenna will limit you if it needs to ask to rebroad cast packets. A patch that focus the signal will be helpful.

@ShermanKenB awesome thanks for the help
😮😮😮🎉
Holy power stations batman! That's a lot of power and range.
You can't believe anything that comes from China. The range they state is absolute bullshit. I hope Walksnail is on the next ban list in the USA. They still have not fixed issues with this system!
Gday matey, ages since I watched one of your vids, but very timely. I've been going back and forth between the HDZero and Walksnail as I was about to embark on my own digital journey. I'd recently decided to go for walk snail and like you, I was wondering abou the range on fixed wing. Also like you, I'm disappointed with 1.6Km although I am looking forward to see how well the goggles X work in with my old analog gear so that I can keep using my old gear with the new for the long range flights. Up to now I've been working with an ancient analog box goggle so the digital goggles represent a major upgrade for me. I did see one guy with pretty decent range using some cheap home made (3D print) helicals. ruclips.net/video/CYphV5FPbYc/видео.html Thanks for this vid and the commentary of what you're trying to achieve, always appreciated.
Hi and thanks for the comment, I do hope once i upgrade the aerials it will improve considerably although i can't see it being as good as my 1.3g systems. I did originally buy the GoggleX for the analog and to keep the long range 1.3g setup, but now flying HD, i think all my planes will be eventually upgraded to HD.
@@stonesrcchannel Hmmm, I was going to purchase the exact same camera/VTX combo that you're using, but now I'll just get the goggles and wait for the new range to be released in a couple of months. It's supposed to have 4 times the range, but we are at the pre-product release hype stage so we'll see how that all goes when released. Thanks again, you really helped me with my purchase decision.
@@FixedWing Oh thats good to hear i haven't heard anything regarding range increase as yet so fingers crossed for that. I feel the walksnail system has heaps to improve i hope they keep going the way they have been so far although i it has been a shame they seemed to release the goggle x a bit soon which is why they have copped a bit of bad reports. In saying that i have had nothing to complain about i ungraded the heatsink and run the latest firmware and everything works well. Like i said in the video my only disappointment is the range but i'm sure that will improve as i upgrade the aerials and better products are released in the future.
By the way i have just tested a long range analog vtx from AKK Tech which was sent to me. Its the alpha 10 watt vtx and i just did a range test with that on stock aerials it reach 8.3km with no drop out, unreal vtx shame its not HD. I did a review on it a few videos ago.
is it wendy?the video tremble sometime..
Some wind when the plane shakes
it flew well,its stable,,👍👍👍,
Yes bro its a good plane and even better now it has HD camera. The new camera makes it much clearer to fly with.
The launch scares me brother😱😱😱
I was surprised it did 155 kph
I’ve had 211mph out mine. It’s on my channel. 6s lipo
I also do a vertical launch. Directly strait up. 👊🏻
@@ttucker2073 wow that's amazing
That particular kit supports up to 13v, so up to 3s directly from vbat.
Yes I now have it setup on 3s. Seemed a little unclear to me regarding the v1 and v2 as It seemed the v2 could run more than 5v but to avoid risking it I set it up on 5v to begin with which I have now changed. Thanks for confirming!
my 2nd flite she caught fire on 3s
Dude.... cool project but that vtx is a rough choice. Those have no heat sink and almost no thermal mass to hysterese, so they overheat like crazy. I have two in HD whoop builds, and when working on the bench even with the vtx dangling in front of a fan it is borderline overheating. If I power up a quad with one, it overheats in under 2 min and that's exposed to air. In that enclosed space I expect some serious mid flight sudden video shutdown issues. They are a great piece of kit if you MUST use 1s batteries or if 10-20 grams is going to make a difference - like with tiny whoops. But in this use case for a few dollars more the 2s kit with a heat sink is vastly preferable.
It does overheat if left too long without airflow but once in the air it’s fine. I have flown many flights 20-30 mins without any issues so far. I was thinking overheating issues would be a thing during the build but so far have had none.
