    So now CASA (who have never flown 100Km BVLOS FPV themselves) will create rules, regulations and requirements that dictate to others (who have also not done this) how it should be done safely. The ignorant leading the stupid one might say.
    Instead of punishing those who have clearly demonstrated their ability to undertake such an activity with safety and competence, why not use them as a key part of the team that sets up the regulations and requirements to allow others to also do this safely.
    Bureaucrats are not interested in safety as much as they are in exerting their authority -- despite what they claim.

    When NASA crashes rockets in our oceans and contaminates a planet they celebrate. When some hobbyists fly a seagull sized foam airplane, they get fined. That’s messed up.
    So if you could use 1.3ghz video, what hardware would you use? And what ELRS would you select? 900mhz?

  • @JustinHunnicutt
    @JustinHunnicutt Год назад +1

    One thing I remember from the comments of the original video was someone mentioning the polarizations of the video receiver in the dish. They said reception would have been better if they had used an lhcp on the receiver since the transmitter had an rhcp and the polarization would flip when reflecting off the dish. I wish removed videos when taken down would just black the video but leave everything else cause there's so much good info. Maybe the comment could be found in the mentioned Internet history stuff or the wayback machine. If anyone has done this tell me if this is correct. It makes perfect sense but it just seems odd it would have gone so well starting from at least a 20db (that's just a guess at the true rc sniper incorrect polarization ratio) handicap.

    • @flat-earther
      @flat-earther Год назад

      I also heard before that a dish reverses polarization so you need opposite polarization if receiver has dish

    • @bassohollic
      @bassohollic Год назад +2

      That is correct. He basically flew 100km getting video feed with the wrong polarization.
      Pretty awesome!

    I can't figure out why my ELRS jumps from 25mw to 1000mw and the LQ drops significantly. Maybe the position of the antenna?

    This ultimately may be the way to fight BS regulations through civil disobedience. Have a community where you fly responsibly and if you so happen to get in trouble for doing that then the community has a gofundme me to help pay fines of those who do not comply with dumb stuff like remote id but fly in a safe responsible way like people have been doing for decades. We have to find a way to defeat the bureaucrats who refuse to listen to the hobby community and cater to the corporations wanting to buy our airspace.

    Not quite sure how it would be done but if you could incorporate a mobile phone signal into a camera. Be same kinda of idea as strapping your mobile phone to your fixed wing only not lol. Obviously you prob wouldnt be able to use fpv goggles but you could in theory get litteral unlimited range as long as you had a mobile signal or mobile tower relatively close.
