Nice. Will have to try those lighter packs. 
It will be nice to see more people start flying with ADRC soon.

Built a 2in 2s based on the Petrel 85 frame and the BetaFPV O4 HD canopy II. To secure the canopy I just slid the bobbins over four M1.4X8 screws. Install the screws so they are long enough to rest in the round middle part of the bobbins. surprisingly secure.

Secure the wires to the frame with some dental floss

I see. looks like you you are setting up betaflight on a new build. 
Could you explain your setup?

Probably because Failsafe is selected in the Modes tab. If you don't need Failsafe on a switch just remove it from the Modes tab.

Your welcome.
Thanks for helping me get started. 
I have a much better understanding for it now.

I'm getting this overshoot on yaw I can't seem to correct.
This is on a Povo20 Pro 2  with the O4 lite and canopy.

Interesting frame. But its heavier than your current frame. And probably wouldn't freestyle that great cause of that. 
If your looking for a new frame, any of the popular 1s 75mm frames should work well with your setup.
 Pusher setups do provide a bit more thrust.

You can freestyle anything in my opinion ☺️

Yes. So unfortunate. The things we find ourselves doing for these quads.

Looks good really.
You might be able to smooth those jitters out by raising or lowering TPA Rate. 
I would try raising first.

Awesome video! 
Shouldn't have to guess where it is.
Should be within ~50ft of the last known coordinates before the splash.
I'd revisit :)

Perfect!
That's where I pulled those settings, from Air75 freestyle CLI :)
Also keep in mind that flight controller can come with various gyros.
Make sure to use the the CLI settings for the gyro that is installed on your board. 
In your case it's the BMI270.
Glad you got it working.
Have fun.

Backup your settings first
Type 

dump

in the CLI
Then press "Save to file button" to save on your computer

Now copy the following to the CLI

set gyro_lpf1_static_hz = 0
set gyro_lpf2_static_hz = 550
set dyn_notch_count = 2
set dyn_notch_q = 450
set dyn_notch_max_hz = 500
set gyro_lpf1_dyn_min_hz = 0
set gyro_lpf1_dyn_max_hz = 550
set acc_calibration = 17,43,30,1
set dshot_bidir = ON
set dshot_bitbang = AUTO
set motor_pwm_protocol = DSHOT300
set motor_poles = 12
set align_board_yaw = -135
set vbat_scale = 113
set ibata_offset = -600
set yaw_motors_reversed = ON
set small_angle = 180
set simplified_gyro_filter_multiplier = 110
set tpa_rate = 60
set tpa_breakpoint = 1220
save

This should set your filters and board alignment for your gyro
If this doesn't help we'll try PIDs next

Go into the CLI tab type 
status
Then enter

What gyro does it say you have installed?

I don't understand why your vtx power is reporting 20 in the OSD. Looking at your vtx table It should be reporting 25.  R : 1 : 25

This is just a  guess but I think the transmitter is transmitting at 200mw on Channel Race 1 and your not seeing that last zero on the OSD for some reason. 

The reason your getting static at 25 meters could be because your goggles are manually set to another channel other than Race 1? 
(I can go a few hundred meters on 25mw and still have good video)

Check  your goggle settings to see if they are manually set to a different channel.
You can also  try using auto scan to make sure it locks on to the channel your vtx is transmitting on. 

Let's take flight together and elevate the world of FPV drones to new heights.
