hot tip: don't copy code/console input text out of formatted docs like google or word, whitespace and other wonky formatting characters can come along for the ride and cause all kinds of havoc. always copy from a plain text source like notepad ;D

This is exactly what I needed to finally start using launch control

[BBFPV-wwne]

Yeah I like they way you just right to the point. Didn’t go into the historical usage of launch control, ideal scenarios you’d use launch control, other pointless things. Great video!

[JSKCKNIT]

Thank you! This was what i was looking for.

[toastedCAROUSEL]

i like the way you kept it simple. thanks for the tuto man!

I just stumbled across your video. great video. I was wondering how they were launching like that I've been trying to do it manually and having a horrible time. Didn't even know launch control was a thing till now. Amazing video easy to follow along

[DruMCoMPanY]

Best drone tip of the year, thank,you.

[MatthewTaylor]

I'll set this up today. Thanks for this video

If you get an error about the OSD warning line, that's because:
"Added in 4.2: The OSD warning will start to blink when the throttle gets within 10% of the trigger percentage. Provides a visual indication that the throttle is close to triggering a launch." (from BF Docs)

[mrpash]

That's is awesome... I will definitely will give that one a go. Thanks for the video

[uvakindfpv]

Thanks for this video. In what fly mode do you have to be in for this to work. I assume you can't have it in angle mode with launch control, do you have to be only in acro mode?

[volta]

Nice tips man, recently trying to figuring out how launch control mode work and i didn't really know because I'm still new at it

[rclife]

Thanks for the snippet of code it works

[grumpyfpv]

Thank you. Everything worked except the OSD part as it says it's not a valid command? Any tips?

[DavidFPV]

Down to what matters.
In my opinion a perfect tutorial :)

[nimhbot]

That’s super cool. Thanks for sharing.

Massive help thanks, I'm going out with my neighbour tomorrow who builds longbows and we're following an arrow shoot... that's if the arrow doesn't hit the drone first! :)

[mr.j]

Best, simple and clear,
Thnks a lot sir..

[TorontoFPV]

you'd flick it off though if you crash to turtle and take off normally right?

[ckfpv]

Very cool 👍🏽💯💯 learn a new thing everyday
