G’day mate. Any chance you have any surviving drone footage, or know of any footage going around the old ox before it burnt down? I love creating 3D models and photogrammetry scans. I’ve created digital models of the ox hotel in the past. I would love to create a 3D photogrammetry reality scan of the old ox in fact it would me amazing to pull off since the building is long since gone.

Wait.. you are using the L9R with 1.3Ghz? how does that works? Im going to build a plane with a L9R in 5.8Ghz and was thinking in changing my 1.3Ghz plane from 35Mhz to other system (too much interference in 35mhz)...L9R is attractive but i was put back of armonics between 2.4 and 1.3.. So your setup does interest me :D Edit: Oh..i see in the comments you use a filter on the VTX
Its in the US and EU warehouse now and reduced a further 20% goo.gl/lyc8gi Great camera and such low latency. Amazing what less than $100/€100 can get you these days. BB
Hello. Very nice record. Just a question: what's the Volts out from rssi port? From my L9r I've 1.8 analog volts instead the 3.3 v from datasheet. Does it match right with storm, or you need to tune the setup for rssi? TK
Pretty good those L9Rs eh? I have one also...Why didnt you hook up the rssi to your Storm?, you can watch the signal strength then....Already seen easy 10kms at 90% signal on a standard TX Taranis antenna......you dont even need a patch or a booster....rssi would confirm this for you....Thanxs for sharing.
Thats pretty good on 2.4ghz 10kms should be easy if the Storms rssi is reporting the truth about the L9R....I also recently purchased the L9R to use with my Taranis.....Which anttenas are you using on your L9R, the standard plastic block ones ?....Thanxs for sharing, who needs UHF?....:)
thanks craig for the rescue again all ready for a test flight again the receiver had antaner missing replaced with sky fly long range one replaced camera lens reglued hatch canopy syclops storm and vtx and motor all ok after 6 weeks lost in the scrub with 38 deggrees plus heat even 3inches of rain found 5ks away the phantom flys again thanks to craig tanke
How did you position the 2 antennas on the plane? How near/far from the Vtx, at what angles, were the 2 antennas both horizontal or one vertical? Thanks. All info appreciated.
Yeah I never did that again. Very lucky. I have progressed to Quad copter only from home videos. Much easier and less stressful.I just took some night footage of some more fireworks last night.
ctank66 Nice. Funny enough, I am at the same point - the setup and geographical hassles of fixed wing (Skywalker in my case) have led me to acquire a QAV400.
I use as my primary fixed wing an FX 61 Phantom which I have been out 8235m instead of the old Bixler 2 and EPP Fpv plane. It is so much easier to put in the car, setup. I have my main filming quad the Alien 560 from hobbyking with 3 axis Gimbal and Gopro 3 Black and a 400 size homemade H quad as no 2 quad. Also mini H for closer fun with Mobius camera. The QAV 400 looks like a nice frame. I have been looking at it for a while myself.
i think the best choice if i want long range what battery use with FX 61 Phantom ? Taranis antenna mod with 7 you meant module frsky!! or direct antenna solder taranis ?? thank you for review
I used a 4 s 5000 mah Zippy compact for this flight but I also use 3s 4500 mah with good results. This plane would be able to carry 10000 mah without problems if you wanted more duration. My Taranis mod is direct solder no module and I used a 2.4Ghz 7DB Patch Antenna. i will be trying this setup with a booster on the tx soon. Regards Craig
I you have no power and go into rth it is stil trying to go to set altitude witch was set at 250 mtrs hence to slow air speed I wated to fly home manualy but poor vision out of vtx to my googles exelent editing camera explorer 19 boscam
exelent video craig the old Chesney head frame brings back memories I used to go down every day to check the pumps and lower the pluger pump when I was working on care and maitance for csa mine in 1976 good one
thanks craig you saved hours of time and efort the bixler saved the day two hours of repair work a new camera and one new 2200 mha battery and its ready for fpv again thanks again negy
Cool video, that little guy can move, I’ll give you a sub 😊
Still got the old bling

Video 1.2 ghz?
Koestel Yes it is.
thank you
how do it works with L9R at 2.4Ghz?
What frequency are you running your VTX on...?.....Amazed its not trashing the L9R reception, its a very sensitive reciever....

GOOD PILOTING SKILLS CRAIG
thanks craig for editing and posting shame it was a windy day great work

DONT KNOW VOLTS JUST PLUG AND PLAY THEN DO RSSI ON STORM SETTINGS
wow you only pull 3.3 A ? thats nice !
A fun landing!
Hows the numbers on race days? Enough for separate buggy and truggy? Tracks looking great

yes got a filter on not Bad 25 ks for 5000 mahs rssi at 80 so can go more distance yet thanks ctaig for posting
great L9R but you have filter in vtx 1.3g !!
YES MATE
next for better visual and 10ks plus mabe thanks for downloading craig
What antennas were you using for the video?
we will have to do it again but go south to nth great footage craig
nice footage you have got bigger gonads than me craig haaa
thanks craig for the rescue again all ready for a test flight again the receiver had antaner missing replaced with sky fly long range one replaced camera lens reglued hatch canopy syclops storm and vtx and motor all ok after 6 weeks lost in the scrub with 38 deggrees plus heat even 3inches of rain found 5ks away the phantom flys again thanks to craig tanke
thank to dvr recording safe for enoughther day rth not engaiged ah

looking good out there, Hi Rob, I met you at Liverpool club , I f I could some work out there, I would be a keeeen racer for sure
mistery gost sighting mabe
Balls of steel launching and recovering from...that...urban nightmare in the dark.

you will get better results next time flying east on the nyngan road beter line of sight unreal distance from a 37 dollar rx
good flying craig
Hi Craig, Good to talk. I wouldn't mind progressing to a FX 61 one day. Rob
Incredible footage!
great footage cristel clear you could include peak open cut and newy and old ress mabe next one
that was a close call could have been a midair your right it bloody hard to do
bloody unreal footage
Great Video! Good save!!
good video cant wait to get mine
Nice video :) How do you like the plane? (I have one for FPV, quite a few flights on it and I like it a lot :)
a bloody long way up good result better attempt next time mate I will be home on sunday
