    crazy buggers, and here I am still getting the balls to do 2km!
  • Carlos The Cactus 1 year ago
    LOL, me too! In fact I lose my bottle at around 800m just now.... though I am still using a 3dBi RX antenna and have no diversity... that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! ;)

    Congrats on the record! You might consider speeding up your footage rather than simply fading from one chunk of time to the next. Would be cool to see it like a time lapse.

    That's definitely a feat!

    You guys should do another quick edit that has a fast forwarded version of the WHOLE flight instead of just chopped up versions! I'd look forward to watching that!

    Congrats !

    Can we see the flight-cam video with OSD overlay? Would love to see the video reception at that range!
  •  
  • editing with "fast-forward" footage is too shaky in a turbulent flight. we played it at 200% (double speed) and did quick cuts, everything else turned out bad.

    the OSD and flight cam video was lost after landing as we forgot to hit the STOP button on the recorder. next time!

    Great effort -rock solid teamwork!

    Were you able to fly it all the way to the ground, or did the chase crew have to take over for the landing?
  • no, we piloted all the way. the ground crew was waiting at the other end of the city, where we had agreed to land. we decided last second we would land before the city as battery was getting low.

  • Virgilijus plus 1 year ago
    Yep, that is nice! I wish I could have mountais as you! :(
    Can you share yours cruise speed, curent and etc? What whas the battery used for that flight? How long did it take to get there?
    Thanks

    Virgis
  • 6.6Ah total battery, cruise speed at 6A between 30 and 55) (normally 65kph, but wind was against us). total flight time was around 1h 20min, a little less.
  • Virgilijus plus 1 year ago
    Thanks.
    What about UHF transmitter antenna used? was it default or something like yagi?
    And what was the RSSI value at the max distance? :)

    What a great flight! Congratulations!

    If we put your radio equipment in our Y-UAV (y-uav.com) we can do a 50km return flight. We are ready for it, are you :-)

    wow thats amazing. can you please please PLEASE (hehe) tell me what equipment and hardware you're using, and the price total? or what is a setup that would maybe have half the range of that?

  • Ellz Ramclam 1 year ago
    Ok... I guess I'll be the idiot to ask. What's the challenge here: Glider takes off at point A and flies out 27 miles...
    Is the controller stationed at point A while all of this is happening or does controller follows and stays under the glider while it's flying the 27 miles? How ever it may be... still pretty amazing footage you have. Thanks
  • Hi, the controller is at the starting point during the whole flight... The challange is to get out as much as possible.

    Thank you for sharing this video... It's a wonderful and breathtaking footage. Do you use the EzUHF for R/C link?
