Mountain Surfing with Failing VTX Long Range FPV Quad

Follow along as we learn how to mountain surf during this Long Range FPV quad flight up Church Mountain. Flight distance out was 2.6 miles or 4km and a 5200ft climb. During this flight we experienced degrading VTX output from what was a failing video transmitter. The thing totally stopped on the following flight. Check out that crazy video coming soon. We also were testing the TrueRC Singularity and the O.R.T 6 and 12 turn helical antenna, and the VAS Crosshair Xtreme antennas but with a degrading VTX no conclusions should be made.
