hello, I have a true diversity rx on my quad, but I don't see whichn antenna is being used like you. how do you set it up in Betaflight to know which antenna is being used? thank you
You have to activate the RSSI DBM indicator in the OSD, and when the antenna switches you will see the number 1 or 2 after the rssi value, as you can see in my video ;)
@@steeveraye1787 The RSSI dBm:channel in diversity setups is a feature of Betaflight 4.5 as you can see here (betaflight.com/docs/wiki/release/betaflight-4-5-release-notes). Do you have an older version?
with a DJI O3 VTX I could probably reach 1-2km more, but I have a Caddx Vista and only 1 antenna on the drone. I will try to do other tests to get to 8-9km!
I have an iflight nazgul too. You had your throttle at 40 and fly 70kmh. Is that the optimal speed to fly this distance, so the battery doesnt get empty?
the distance you can travel with a battery depends on many factors: first of all, to do long range you need li-ion batteries and not li-po. in this flight I used a li-ion with a capacity of 4000mah. to find the right speed based on the weight of the drone you have to activate the battery efficiency indicator in the osd, which tells you how many Mah are consumed per km traveled, then during the flight you do some tests to see what is the optimal speed that consumes the least milliamps per km. in my case it is about 70 kilometers per hour.
@@DroneVisionIT also my gps rescue actually works every time now and the drone hasn’t fallen out of the sky once, I even had an issue where it would say zero satellites for a second so I tried gps rescue and it worked perfectly and didn’t give up when it lost them
Wow man, balls of steel ! Nice one ! With my Nazgul 5V3 and the same battery i was able to get similar flight time.
Thank you! Yes, Li-ion batteries are the best for long range!
Wow, I like it! Pp!
thank you Pp! :D
Very nice experiment. Thanks for sharing te telemetry. Cheers!
thanks! next time I hope to improve the range even more!
Raggiunta una distanza notevole. Ottimo.
È servito tanto lavoro per aggiungere dei componenti extra al drone, ma il risultato è stato davvero ottimo!
Great video... never seen the antenna number after the rssi dbi values... interesting!
The RSSI dBm:channel in diversity setups is a feature of Betaflight 4.5 ;)
Don't know if you noticed, but you reached the distance of 5 km only using 10mW of transmition power!
Yes I noticed it and I'm very happy about it! The Radiomaster RP3 module and RC Pocket are great!
is this radiomaster pocket range be like?? its surpricing!
Yes Is the radiomaster pocket stock 😁

@@DroneVisionIT I see, I always use rrsi Dbm, but I clearly don’t see which antenna it’s using

wow, what will be maximum travel distance if battery life is not problem?

@@DroneVisionIT Thank you I will try it
@@rgbro7150 your're welcome! Let me know!
You know there’s altitude to hold and heading hold on betaflight now
Really? I didn't know this feature! Where I can find this settings?
@@DroneVisionIT you have to update to 4.6 and select it when flashing the FC, and you might need a working compass for the heading mode
@@Industry-insider Thank you! When I update to 4.6 I'll try it!

@@Industry-insider have you already updated to version 4.6?
