    Thank you for showing us. I just received my tango 2 a month ago.. but i had it on pre-order for a little while. So I was wondering what version I have.. now i know. Thank you so much

    Version - Hardware version
    v1 - 1.01
    V2 - 1.02
    V3 - 2.01
    V4 - ?
    Probably someone knows what is a hardware version of v4.

    My V3, gives me the option for 1W, should I go that high?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад

      It's unlikely you need to go that high. Generally it is best to use the lowest power you need for the distance you want to go.

    can u explain something to me cuz I'm still a noob , if I have the tango 2 crossfire and I can switch to 500mW max power. How far can I fly a long range drone ? And what video transmitter would I need to allow me to fly that far ? And Does it matter if I'm using digital dji or analog ?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад

      Actual range depends on a lot of factors such as the antennas you are using , the weather, what is between you and the drone, etc. So that is hard to predict. But crossfire at 500mW can go quite far. If you are looking to do really long rang flying many many miles/kilometers, I'd suggest joining some Facebook groups dedicated to long range. Also, start small and slowly work your way up to long range.
      DJI FPV and analog can both go far with the right antennas, however DJI has a limit of about 8 miles or so.

      @@mohammedzohairalikhan6103 No, it is not necessary to upgrade to 500mw. You can still go crazy far with a lot less power as long as you have good antennas and antenna placement.

    i have 1w on my tango 2. new firmware installed yesterday. What output should i select. 250mw 500mw or 1w?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  9 месяцев назад +1

      Ideally, you would use the lowest power possible that still gets you the range you need. Unless you are flying many miles/kilometers away, you won't need 1w. Start with 250 or maybe 500 and get a feel for the range and adjust from there.

  • @edouardmalot51
    @edouardmalot51 3 года назад

    Hi, I got telemetry lost at 1km today. Does it mean I was a the range limit or does telemetry is sent back with 25mW (nano Rx), si with 500mW I had more range ?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад +1

      I forget what the power level is, but yes, the telemetry sent back from the nano rx is not 500mW and you will lose the telemetry data a lot sooner than you will lose the control signal.

    So I had Crossfire 3.78 installed with the Rev of the board at 2.01 and the update to 4.05 seems to have left the screen with downloading even though the update says 100% complete. Tried everything to get it to complete but appears bricked. Anyone seen this?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад

      I feel like TBS briefly mentioned a bug with the download icon showing up on the screen after the update during one of their live streams. I thought in their case it went away as soon as you tried to use the radio. If that is not the case for you, I'd open a support ticket with TBS.

    I wonder how hot the Tango 2 gets when outputting 500mw? My R9M Lite Pro module gets super hot running at 500mW but it hasn’t caused any problems.

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад

      No idea. But I do know TBS did a bunch of testing before determining what the safe max output power of the v3 board would be.

    Did I get it right that when I order the Tango 2 (with V3 PCB) now that 500mW should work out of the box?

    • @5zero7RC
      @5zero7RC  3 года назад +1

      Yes, that is correct. A new radio with the most recent board will work at 500mW.

      Higher power output from your radio can give you greater range. But if you don't need extra range, it's best not to increase the power any more than necessary.
