Remember convolution reverb plugins? Yeah, didn't think so. The blanks were to "excite" the acoustic space with a sharp transient impulse of white noise to model it in the plugin, so you could use it to process your own audio as if it were in that space. More techno academics for the studio jobs I had at the time.

Yeah... it's way faster. Nanotechs I had from 2 years ago.... 45-90C = so much faster. Battery is warm but not hot. Motors are barely warm. ~2 minute flights.
106 meters at ~80% throttle, @3:39 - 3:46 (delta of 7s) = 15.11m/s
~34MPH!
My Tinyhawk 1S record was 22.4MPH (in https://youtu.be/xpwDXPcwoJk )

$29 or 2 for $50... but remember; it's in a barn. Bring a hot towel or something. This is more FXT DVR 60fps FPV action... still fussing with the terrible Kabab tune that has been all flutters on my direct-solder build. Any advice? No, I'm not downgrading Betaflight.

Day 2: https://youtu.be/yCAfAEo-GqM
Day 1's ending crash broke an arm off. The stills show my (lack of?) jury-rigging skills out in the field. I didn't bring any spare anything, so had to make due with a chunk of steak knife and later a length of fiberglass rod chopped off an arrow shaft, which was the best I could find at Walmart to put this thing back in the air before the sun set for the weekend. It worked well enough to have the fun I set out to have while I was doin my boonie yo. Bonus... I had the rest of the arrow to tape an 808 cam onto, so I played with that a bit fer shitzn'gigglz.

I H8-battled a flock of geese for turf, then went for a quick dip... and somehow survived to flip and roll another day. I wasn't able to stop all the shoreline poopin'... but the brunt of it was at least mitigated to some extent.
They'll be back... and H8'll be there. He's airing out along with my socks and pants.

All stock still, has the pre-installed capacitor on the 3V pads.
Soon to tear one of them apart and figure out why the video is so terrible, and try to fix it. Leaving this here for a "before" reference.

I ended up chasing cars like a dog on meth, and seeing how late into the dark I could fly,.. until the mosquitoes found me.
More attempting to make things look decent in DaVinci Resolve. This uses the 4x Upscaling feature, some color grading, etc. Nothing went smoothly, but my computer is getting pretty old.

Stock Eachine H8 Blue Board (w/ prop guards and other superfluous plastic removed)
^^^ w/Silverware firmware (31.10.16 stock)
CL-0615-17 Coreless Motor ("INSANELY FAST")
^^ This doesn't make much if any difference imho; stock motors feel just as good. Once again, the only thing that made the H8 fly any better is the Silverware firmware, period! They're on clearance, so I tried 'em; https://www.airbladeuav.com/collectio... (coupon code: "CLEARANCE" = $5 for a set of 4x)
