at 6km it still shows rssi 99...! amazing man but there is some advantages of background signal noise also, i mean if you fly this setup on city side or crouded side then there will be a different result
Goodmorning. I've been thinking about this setup and you've helped to make that decision. I'm interested in seeing where your channel goes from here? I'm a Minnesota farm boy with a lot of acres to fly over and we only have 1 neighbor about 1 mile away so everyone's happy :). He flys a Autel xstar pro I think it's called. Can't miss it! Big orange thing in the sky! Have a great day. I'm guessing if you live in the USA you're somewhere near Iowa or Indiana?
hey buddy, That was amazing. I want to turn my quad into a long range quad. Do I need a tbs unify vtx with the crossfire? And besides the vas black cannon antenna did u have anything else to help u with fpv feed? I have the Aomway commander diversity goggles and Im gonna buy the VAS antenna. Do I need anything else? thank u
If your still wondering, the tbs unify has nothing to do with crossfire except being made by tbs. You would also want to use a circular polarized antenna so you can fly around yourself without loosing signal.
so why the hell is my LQ dropping down to 40 after just 1.3km? Maybe cause the antenna isn't placed that good, but does it make such a huge difference? i have it unter my left rear arm...
Elecifun thanks for watching! probably the crossfire if you can afford it. I didn't get any dropouts, only low rssi. I bet the diversity Rx would be even better.
It was great to watch, cheers for uploading. I will go with the TBS as I watched a review on the Frsky long range kit last night and would prefer the features in the TBS Crossfire (www.hobbyrc.co.uk/tbs-crossfire-868mhz-transmitter-module). I will try the micro RX first as the price difference with the diversity is over double. I only have a 250 sized quad.
aaron estrada how does this return to home function actually work? Is it like a safe mode to ensure u don't lose ur quad? Also how can I get this on my quad? Any help would be really appreciated.
Ben Jones I think the drop in RSSI shows you can. I think it would be very hard to get the quoted range. The conditions of this flight were pretty ideal
Blink I think it drops out abit when the quad turns around. Maybe the antenna orientation during the turn caused it. I thought it would be better to be honest, my L9R got 5k.
Blink yeh I have to admit I'm not that impressed. I understand it would be an improvement for a 5" racing quad as the micro Rx is small but it's not great for real long range applications. This was direct Los too, 20k is bogus.
Blink Well the crossfire would easily do that, the rssi on the video is pretty consistent for at least 2k. I don't think for the size there's much better than the micro Rx. If you can fit an L9R though that's rock solid. I'll try and do a video with the L9R and a patch antenna, I think it will wipe the floor with the crossfire.
I should have added with a "wind surfer" reflector on the Taranis side. Even without one, we routinely get 4 to 5 miles. I have a TBS Micro Rx and to be honest, the long range results have been disappointing. I think it's mainly directed towards the quad folks.
Awesome flight. Just kept thinking that's going to be a long walk if it goes down!
Thats a long walk to pick her up if it goes wrong 👍😁
It has gps so it has gps rescue set up incase of failsafe.
would love to see the 10+ mile one way flight
he probably gonna pick the drone by drive over and check the dvr in his goggle
A reason to buy the tbs crossfire micro! Thanks to show this range test!
at 6km it still shows rssi 99...!
amazing man
but there is some advantages of background signal noise also,
i mean if you fly this setup on city side or crouded side then there will be a different result
6km?? La señal en el osd que es LQ o rssi? O las dos?
Good flight.
Did you used normal operating mode or forced telemetry mode?
Rfmd 2 or Rfmd 1?
Regards
How did you get rssi to work? What do you have set in remote?
Which output type have you selected for your RSSI on your OSD indicator? I have RSS/LQ and It is at 40 already at 3km
Albert Kravcov sorry I really can't remember as I don't have it anymore
How do you get so good RSSI, Im getting much worse on my microtx, can you show antenna mounting?

And maybe the clearvieuw module
whats the gps module u use please
What vtx did you use cause video never went out
so why the hell is my LQ dropping down to 40 after just 1.3km? Maybe cause the antenna isn't placed that good, but does it make such a huge difference? i have it unter my left rear arm...
Você udou o Crossfire V1 ou V2?
Quantos Mw?
at 2017 there was only V1
@@ПавелШаламов-ж3д what firmware are you using?
Hi which vtx and dvr do you using in quad and goggle?
thank you for the video... how is the penetration ... have you had a chance to test at all? thanks
HomeGrownCanadianFPV No not really I'm afraid. I went back to the L9R in the end
ok... L9R is good anyway... either or I guess
did you have the VRX ant on a tripod 6 feet off the ground?
I loved watching that. What is your conclusion Frsky or TBS for long range?
Elecifun thanks for watching! probably the crossfire if you can afford it. I didn't get any dropouts, only low rssi. I bet the diversity Rx would be even better.

Crossfire smokes the frsky in long range especially if you get the original tx with up to 2 watts of power. TBS has taken the system 100km out.
That 100km video is suspect,i dont believe it for one moment..
good video dude
what firmware in your TBs Micro Tx? is it 2.24 or the newest 2.33 ?
Holy shit 😎😎
Can I see your RX antenna position please?
I'd love to see this too
Sorry I no longer have the Rx. It was on the back of the quad with the dipole in a vertical orientation.
So when you landed, the dipole will hit the ground?
James Li No there was enough ground clearance on the quad for this not to happen. It had a huge 4000mah 4s lipo under it.
DinkBox got it, thanks !
Great video Is it possible to use TBS Crossfire micro with GPS naza V2 system? On a drone? Thanks
Marco Antonio Balbo Motta it will work with the naza V2 just fine
Thanx for the Test 😉👌
Was it the normal T-Antenna?
Nice we’re are you based us👍
What gps module was installed?
Which RX you are using?
With tbs Diamond or stock antenna ?
What happened at 7:07?
I think he triggered RTH
then at 7:49 he recovered the control
I want to see 40 km 😀
Are you using the m8n gps?
Karstacus Yes, that's correct
How to vtx?
Wicked 😊
It's with 10mw ? or 100mw ?
would be also interested. did you fly with 25mw or 100mw of tx output power?
Sorry for the late reply, it was 100mW
cool ;)
Alot of questions on here but no one is answering wtf
Very niçe 👍
what happend at 7:06?
Sebastian Gies I switched it to return to launch because I was lazy
looks like it failsafed to Return to Home. then got a good signal back and he put it back in acro mode
aaron estrada how does this return to home function actually work? Is it like a safe mode to ensure u don't lose ur quad? Also how can I get this on my quad? Any help would be really appreciated.
You can't test the range with a quad. They'll run out of battery before the crossfire even starts to roll up it's sleeves
Ben Jones I think the drop in RSSI shows you can. I think it would be very hard to get the quoted range. The conditions of this flight were pretty ideal
DinkBox not hard at all. I have the full size tx but I’ve been out further than this on 25mw
Pretty strange that min 16 rssi :(
Blink I think it drops out abit when the quad turns around. Maybe the antenna orientation during the turn caused it. I thought it would be better to be honest, my L9R got 5k.
I'm really in doubt about this product... i mean they said 20km but i have saw some video about failsafe at 100 meters away...
Blink yeh I have to admit I'm not that impressed. I understand it would be an improvement for a 5" racing quad as the micro Rx is small but it's not great for real long range applications. This was direct Los too, 20k is bogus.
Yeah totally got it, what you suggest for me? basically mid-range flight like 1/2km (with the x4r i don't feel to do it :D )
Blink Well the crossfire would easily do that, the rssi on the video is pretty consistent for at least 2k. I don't think for the size there's much better than the micro Rx. If you can fit an L9R though that's rock solid. I'll try and do a video with the L9R and a patch antenna, I think it will wipe the floor with the crossfire.
Really not so hot range. Not even up to L9R at 9 miles!
Steven G I've never heard of an L9R doing 9 miles.
I should have added with a "wind surfer" reflector on the Taranis side. Even without one, we routinely get 4 to 5 miles. I have a TBS Micro Rx and to be honest, the long range results have been disappointing. I think it's mainly directed towards the quad folks.

Dislike for having tens of valid questions under the video and zero answers. Uncool.
He might be busy mate give em time
But to be fair it has been a couple of months
Hi can you tell me your Setup on your kwad and send me pictures from your kwad?
