The Flywoo CineRace20 DJI HD V1.0 is a versatile drone designed for both racing and stable video shooting, offering an extended flight time. It features a unique double-duct design, distinguishing it from simple prop guards, and is inspired by the RaceWhoop concept from Free Zillion. This design allows it to fly with the agility of a racing drone while maintaining the stability of a Cinewhoop, ensuring jello-free video footage.
Function Description:
The CineRace20 is an all-round drone capable of high-performance racing and stable aerial videography. Its primary function is to provide pilots with a flexible and stable platform for capturing video without unwanted vibrations (jello effect) and to offer extended flight times. The drone is designed for personalization, allowing pilots to combine different color frames. It also integrates a Flywoo Bt-nano Bluetooth Module, enabling mobile devices to set flight controller parameters.

Usage Features:
Personalization:
- Pilots can freely combine their favorite frame colors. Note that replacing ducts requires manual installation, as pre-built drone colors are fixed.
Receiver Binding:
- TBS NANO 915: Connect USB, wait for the receiver's green light to flash, then follow the binding procedure outlined in the provided video tutorial.
- ELRS 2.4G RX: Supply power to the EL24E/EL24P RX. Wait for the LED to turn off, then immediately turn off the power. Repeat this process. On the third power-up, the LED will double-flash, indicating binding mode. Insert the 2.4G ELRS TX into the radio transmitter, select External RF mode to CRSF protocol, find the ELRS menu (after copying the ELRS.LUA file to the SD-Card tools), enter ELRS, and press [Bind]. The RX module's LED will become solid upon successful binding.
- LED Status Meanings: Solid LED: successful bind/connection; Double-flash: bind mode; Slow flash: no signal; Fast flash: WIFI hotspot mode (for firmware upgrade via web browser at 10.0.0.1, password: expresslrs).
- R9MM FCC ACCESS OTA: For ACCESS protocol remote controls, follow the provided YouTube link for registration and binding.
- R9MM ACCST Protocol: Copy specific firmware files (FW-R9MM-ACCST_v20190201 and FW-R9M-ACCST-20190117) to the SD card's firmware directory. Insert the R9M TX module and flash the necessary firmware. To write firmware to the R9MM receiver, remove it and connect it to the S.PORT port.
- Binding R9MM TX and RX (ACCST):
- Press and hold the RX's bind button. Power on, and the red and green lights will be on.
- After R9MM selects binding, the RX red light flashes, then exits.
- Power on the RX again; a green light indicates successful binding.
- XM+ Receiver:
- Press the XM+ receiver button. Power on, and the red and green lights will be on.
- The remote control enters binding mode, and the green light flashes to indicate successful binding. Turn off and restart.
Mode Setting:
- Set the ARM switch and flight mode switch. AUX+ corresponds to the remote control switch, and the yellow area indicates activation.
Motor Test:
- Unload the propellers. Test the rotation direction of the motors one by one on the safety switch.
VISTA Activation and Binding:
- For convenience, VISTA is activated by default at the factory and updated to the latest firmware version. The BNF version can be used directly without further updates. A YouTube tutorial is provided for assistance.
Bluetooth Function:
