My Long Range FPV Drone & Gear : Gets 8.5km Out - Roundtrips of 18km+
I talk all about my long range FPV drone & gear. Including all the parts on the drone, goggles, antennas, li-ion batteries, a one of a kind 7" long range frame and more!
There are a few long range flight examples to start, lots of talking, long range gear information and a few freestyle clips at the end.
(I might make the frame available if there's enough interest once the new version is ready)
Video chapters:
0:00 - What this long range fpv setup can do
1:15 - 7" frame & props
2:00 - The drone and electronics
3:44 - Control link (crossfire)
4:00 - Diversity Rx antenna setup
4:20 - Transmitter & Tx module
5:10 - Li-ion batteries
6:05 - Motors, battery sag, amp draw and ESC?
6:45 - Lipo comparison
7:20 - FPV goggles and antennas
8:18 - 2 x high gain antennas w/ rapidfire
8:40 - Long range FPV frame that I'm working on
9:30 - New long range build
10:30 - My next batch of 4s li-ion batteries
11:45 - Some warmup / freestyle flying
14:07 - Ending / video suggestions
I'm often asked about how I get such good video and transmitter range. The biggest improvement for most will be from upgrading their antennas. I use these ones (Airblade UAV affiliate links):

Comments? Questions? Leave them in the comment section below. I'll do my best to answer.
This flight was done with 2 x 2600 mah 6s li-ion packs in parallel, one on top, one underneath.
Post process:
-ReelSteady Go for stabilization
-Adobe Premiere Pro for editing, color correction etc...
-Recorded at 2.7k 60 fps and exported at 4k 60 fps
Music all from youtube audio library.
