I got some new long range gear and i figured what better way to test it out then to fly it all the way to this sketchy island and back, oh and i beat my long range record in the process...

If you want the badass battery, holla at your bud, i'll make it happen . My buds at UpgradeEnergy only use the best cells, and they manufacture and Warranty the packs in the USA. I had them make my Stay High Field Charging Packs after meeting their engineer and confirming they knew their shit. Do you guys want long range 18650 and 21700 packs? I usually cater to freestyle, but happy to give the people what they want 🙌

@LudicrousFPV Год назад

Perfect timing. Im looking for some packs for my 7inch

@BOTGRINDER Год назад

@@LudicrousFPV I was very happy with mine, could def have done 7km.

@picklefart Год назад

I've had excellent luck building my own 6s packs with molicell 21700 cells. I use them for fixed wings with 2 hours of flight time and I get way too bored after 45 minutes with a quad so I don't know how long my 7 inch flies with it.

@davideagling6415 Год назад

Always loving your vids, bro! My first choice to watch when I get in from work! I should probably chuck you a few quid sometime! I've been going similar distances with my mod'd Flywoo LR4 and it can be proper nerve racking with each glitch of the video link. You'll have a bit more confidence in your batt if you calibrate the amp meter and display the used current in your OSD. That'll tell you how much of your pack you've used, in mAh. They say, as a rule of thumb, use 1/3 on the outbound, saving 2/3 batt for the journey home. For me, keeping those antenna pointed at the craft ain't always easy. I'm usually flying solo and, when I fly in to land, I see myself looking either up or down too far. I'm sure I could go much further with a ground station (fixed antenna). Keep on making the good shit, bro... and smoking it! We all need it..! :-D

@stst8301 Год назад

Nice freaking L O N G range flight,EPIC!

@LucianoVeryNiceHi Год назад

hear me out - it's so nice to see that you built in that "muscle memory" to remember all cameras, to start recording, check on everything, proper pre-flight for long range and making sure all stuff is doing right... takes a few fuckups but at some point we're steady ready for that flight :D add that altitude meter onto OSD and you're good! :D

@thirtythreeeyes8624 Год назад

Hell ya, I would add altitude to the OSD, throttle percent, speed, even amp draw and mah/mile or mah/km if that's what your into, it all helps in long range especially if you have to limp it back on a dead battery and you're right about using two packs, one probably isn't sufficient for the amp draw on a heavy 7" Also 17k for the park in less than 10 days is sick!

It must be a totally different way of getting "high". Getting high on stress, anxiety, and nervousness. Not my cup of 🍵 tea, but each to their own. Me, I prefer Indica. 😎🤘

@thirtythreeeyes8624 Год назад

@@KOrnhOliO1 It's actually really relaxing if you are flying in the mountains and not worrying about going as far as possible just exploring some mountain sides a couple miles out. You have to get through that first stress of being on the edge of video and control though and learn the limits of your gear and when to turn back. Being willing and able to hike for it also helps ease some anxiety if you actually want to send it down the mountain.

@@thirtythreeeyes8624 this is true. My first foray into inav was with a mamba mk2 FC. I used a bn880 and an external baro module wired up to the SDA/SCL pads. I mostly run inav now.

You need to set up your OSD better for long range work on this quad. For starters you’re using the wrong LQ value for ELRS. Having speed, altitude, and maybe a artificial horizon would also be helpful.

@Fly_High_FPV Год назад

@Crixus The Gaul soldering is not the right way to make your own packs. If you dont have a spot welder, the best thing is to buy pre-tabbed cells, so you can solder leads on tabs instead of ruining the chemistry with heat (cooking your capacity) and risking fire. Ive made packs for decades, and I highly recommend against direct soldlering li-ion cells 👍

@@Fly_High_FPV Then why are you not making your own packs? I am widely aware of the risks, but hadn't heard of the pre tabbed cells. That is interesting.
