Ha! I’m always chasing high points for take offs as well. Most times this is what allows me to fly low and fast for the entire path. Spending a good amount of time on google earth planning the route is helps with orientation and blind spots for sure. Great work. Cheers!
It's not often you find yourself at the base of a mountain with solid signal reception all the way through... I've noticed it works better when you're lower down because as the drone climbs higher, the signal tends to get stronger...
Yeah, it's not pricey and it works great, so at least we've got one problem sorted; just the video feed left to deal with! :)) P.S. I haven't flown over the sea to that island yet, that's on my to-do list once I get those helical antennas. Good luck up there, bro!
Nice! Yeah get/make some li-ion, you'll just feel more confident. I wish i had a place like that to fly near me. Ive got my 6" setup for longer range, got floppy props so it's still compact, li-ion, Gemini diversity, using walksnail with diy 3 turn double helical antennas which are smaller than 5 turn but perform better. Gone out a little over 4km but without any good scenery have just really been testing range a little more each flight
Yeah, that's definitely good range. You need to gradually push it to gain more experience and confidence, and to see how your gear holds up. Helical antennas are awesome; you might get even more range with them. But take it easy, man! Good luck up there!
@@Wild__FPVmaybe it's just because I'm just used to the landscape and it just looks boring to me and someone else might find it interesting, I'm in Wisconsin, Just a suburb of the capitol Madison, pretty much corn fields and trees around me no real valleys or larger hills, can't wait to get back out west this summer though!
@@Wild__FPV yeah the double helical are awesome, they give you almost as much gain as a 6 turn but with a wider cone. Yeah, my last flight of a little over 4km was limited by the fact that I didn't want to go over the interstate and the over water with a side wind of 15-20 mph, so that's far enough for now, but yeah each time I go out further I'm more confident going the 2-3 km seem easy, LoL
Well, dang... I was checking out Google Earth, and man, you don't have any mountains within a thousand miles until you hit the Rockies. That's quite a haul! I'm in the same boat here, where nothing exciting to film is nearby, but I've got the Slovenian Alps just 200 miles away, and some beautiful mountains within 250 miles in my own state. Yeah, heading out west for the holidays sounds like it could land you some awesome spots; seems like everything west of the Rockies is just packed with mountains! Best of luck out there, buddy-go west and enjoy! :)
Thanks, bro! I usually keep the throttle at around 20-30% to save on battery. It makes for a smoother flying experience - longer flights, less stress, and it lets me take in the scenery more while I'm in the air.
Man that’s so gorgeous love it keep up the great work!!
Great flight have you ever gone out over the water ?
Another great flight! Makes me wish I could fly more often. Cheers!
Hope you find some time to take to the skies! Good luck up there, man!

Koja dobra lokacija 👀👍👍 odlično izgleda. Ovo je za oči i odmor 👀😍 pogotovo poslje utakmice ⚽️😱😉. Ljepi pozdrav i uživaj
Dobit ćemo Italiju buraz, vidjet ćeš! Drž se! Pozdrav i tebi!
Nice flight bro 👍
Thanks bro! ✌
I just built a Chimera 7 V2 but need to get a diversity receiver currently running a CRSF nano with immortal T

What state do you live in? I find it hard to believe there isn't a single nice spot near you... :(

How much throttle you gave it ? Amazing flight
Thanks, bro!
