Okaloosa County, FL ; Northwest, FL ; Niceville, FL ; Destin, Fl I've flown on and off for 7 years. I'm not very good but I love to fly. I fly whoops to 3in. I'm hoping to build my first 5in this year.

A quick couple flights this morning here in Florida after the snow. It was very windy.

@Thebigbilltheory sorry I kept saying angle and I meant acro. If you're flying angle, try horizon. It gives you a bit more freedom of movement. if you're using betaflight go to the modes tab and you'll see horizon. Set it up on the same aux as acro and angle mode in a different switch position and then set up the switch on your radio.

@Thebigbilltheory enjoy your build, but just keep flying that whoop. They are the ultimate training device. Fly outside as much as you can when it's not windy. Are you flying in acro mode or horizon? If you're just trying to do acro, get better with horizon first - folks will say it builds bad habits but I just disagree. I think angle mode only for beginners makes them quit before they have a chance. Especially if you aren't going to actually put a bunch of time into the sim. Fly horizon line of sight indoors to get used to successfully maneuvering in tight quarters before you put the goggles on. Go with acro when you can get outside and are feeling confident. Your whoop will save you so much pain, money, and time in the future when you start getting more expensive stuff. I'm not saying this is your mindset, but if it is, HD will not make you fly better, its helpful but really it just makes it nicer. Hopefully this come off as friendly advice and not an attack. Enjoy flying and don't give up!

Upvoted reply on a troubleshoot question What size bolts are used for a 3.5 inch prop?

I second that suggestion. Every crash with a whoop is harmless, usually for the whoop also. When you crash a 3" or bigger, your at least bending a prop, maybe breaking an arm.

This is the board with the video system taken off. The red light is always persistent with and there is a blinking orange light that comes on.

Upvoted comment on a troubleshoot question Why does my camera feed not show in my FPV Goggles?

The reason you can see the battery info is because that’s a completely seperate system than the camera feed, as the OSD gets added to whatever input signal it has from the camera and then it gives the signal plus the OSD to the VTX, so the Flight controller working, butyour camera is disconnected or broken

Did you try to recalibrate?

Not sure on the EMAX E8 but on Pocket radio I can manually change outputs for sticks MIN / MAX.

I dont have that transmitter, but i would plug it in to betaflight, go to receiver tab, and check what the inputs are doing. If you can recalibrate the gimbals on that transmitter i would do that too

Keep trying to get it into DFU. If you can't find anything on that, than you might be screwed.
