Taken from iFlight's Facebook Group:
"If you get Jello on your helion please make the following changes to your PIDs page in betaflight. So far this has fixed everyone’s problems. It appears the problem is their is slightly too much P term on the tune to compensate for all rigs in our default tune. So far this has fixed all the issues on every drone we tried with jello.
Change your Damping slider (D gains) - to 1.5
Pitch Damping (pitch, roll D) - to 1.0
Pitch Tracking (pitch, roll, P, I, & FF) - to 1.0
Master Multiplier - to 1.7
Change your Iterm relax to 5 (from 8 )"

Hope that fixes the jello problem if you have it!

Ok, I'm going to be really honest here. I was the first to receive Helion and flagged the LED shorting issue against the FC, hence the taping fix and then the new LEDs. I will say, right from the get go, that I absolutely love this quad, despite its bad press on some forums. Many of us have provided valuable feed-back to the passionate team at 2Raw and iFlight and changes have been made.for he better. Josh and the team at 2Raw continue to provide updates so Helion matches Betaflight releases.
Mike, your flight tines -- 15-30 mins on that sized lipo is BS. That may be so for a Li-ion pack, but not a lipo. I fly Helion with a 6, 000mAh lipo, and I push speed. If I get 8-10 mins max that's a good flight. Regardless, I always love your passion for what we do, and I'm pleased you like Helion. 🙏❤

hy, thank you for the explicacion, what controler and google do you recomendo in order tu push this drone to the liminit?

[temuerasamuel]

I have a Bob57 & I have the antenna getting loose issue.. my fix was just a small strip of insulation tape to stop the nut undoing.. works great

[HuMaNiTaRiAn]

You should use a li-ion pack if you are really trying to do LR. a 6s2p pack will get you much longer flight times than a lipo, from 20>30 mins. samsung have 21700 5000mah 35A cells. I think 10inch is much better suited for these packs as my 7" really falls outside it's efficiency window while weighting 1.2KG, i struggle to get more than 30mins of cruising.
When you do your LR test please take a similar 7inch drone to compare and do a head to head., that would be really useful for people considering which size frame to get.

I have some questions about what remote and goggle combo I need to use for the new Helion I just ordered.
Here’s what I have:

- DJI FPV Goggles V2 and DJI Remote Control 2 (Came with the DJI FPV Fly More Combo)
- DJI Goggles 3 and DJI Remote Control 3 (Avata 2 Fly More Combo)

I purchased the Helion 10 with the additional ELRS 2.4 receiver and a Commando 8 Remote Control.

I know I can use the DJI Goggles and Remote with the Helion 10 as it has the DJI O3 HD Air unit preinstalled. However, if I use the Commando ELRS remote with the ELRS 2.4 receiver, which goggles are compatible? Can I use the DJI FPV Goggles V2? Or do I need the DJI Goggles 2? Or the DJI Goggles Integra?

If I decide I’d rather fly the Helion 10 with the DJI Goggles and Remote, do I need to disconnect the ELRS 2.4 receiver or can I just link the DJI Goggles and Remote to the DJI O3 Air Unit?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Do you place the flight controller in the middle of the frame or right in the center of the motors?

Good review and nice to see some channels reviewing. I bought a helion and have been enjoying it so far. Have seen the jello and it’s definitely more shaky cruising compared to my chimera 7. What’s your thoughts on the 55amp esc in such a big quad? One of the flights I did was a heavy headwind coming back and was having to push it hard. Was seeing 55-60amps and was starting to worry about popping the esc

[YTFPV]

how far can you go really in a perfect location 2.5 km or more and how long to charge a battery what would be the best long range for travelling?

[DerickPelser]

I just got my first long range 7” but now I have another issue, where can I fly? I live in Northern part of GA and here are zero places to fly long range. At least legally, WMA, state Parks are off limits.

[offaxisfpv]

put a small camera on top facing backwards at the antennas and watch them dance from the 10" vibration machine

[LifeofAccro]

id be annoyed not having usb port access without removing the shell, if youre DIY enough id probably dremel out a couple access ports and then 3D print a TPU plug i could easily remove, might be the best solution ;)

[DroneAddiction]

What reciever would you recommend for maximum performance and distance on this someone who is starting fresh and hasn't chosen a controller yet?

[ireshekanayake]

Good review. So are you saying jello can be 100% avoided if we attach the lipo as you suggested?

[MooeeJoJoJo]

Aliexpress has 10inch build kits for under 200 bucks 140 if u byo camera vtx and receiver which I prefer

[dantealighieri]

Hi everyone! I have problems with vibrations on the video recorded by the action camera. Especially in the descent part. Does anyone have any advice on this? what can I do to avoid vibrations in the video? Thank you!

[dragonblanc]

is it okay to buy this as a first drone ?

[joelmulder]

Might’ve considered it if it was available without the O3 unit, but at this price I’d rather just build something myself and hotswap the O3 unit between my other drones like I already do.

Hello everyone, I bought a Helion 10, installed it, and everything seems fine, but the range is very small, probably a maximum of 700м? Goggles lose contact. I'm using the following equipment: (Crossfire Tango 2 transmitter, DJI Goggles 2. TBS crossfire.) There are no significant interferences. I tested it in an open field. Big thank you for any help!

[Dragonewiz]

LOVE IT...!!! But will it work with the DJI goggles V1??? THANKS and great imformitive video good job...
😉👍🙏
