I have also issue it shows 0% battery how to fix and i also got error battery not install properly but i disconnect the pin and solderd them togather please reply me brother

Nice flight! For the landings I can recommend to programm crow-brakes, that really throws an anchor short before touchdown.

Did you used Li-Ion accums in this flight?

The battery sits too far down from the control surfaces, like a mountain bike with a long stem; if the top-down COG can not be perfect with the wings then I would prefer it to sit above rather than below.

I have one of these but without a carbon tail. Never flight, almost 10 years hanging on the wall. I'll start to setup it in a few months. great video.

😊😊😊

How do you install the servo for the camera?

Congratulations, what server do you use for the bread? Thank you

I love this drone. But the battery replacement is so insanely expensive

07:27 no littering Benz not good for our environment i actually deliver rubbish to landfills for a living i see so much waste i think the crash was acceptable and as far as ELRS i would've loved to try but i use 1.2ghz for flight and it will clash with that frequency i wish you well on your journey and mission flight

Is the plane's 900MHz antenna vertically or horizontally polarized ? It looks like your transmitter antenna is horizontal, and if the plane's is also you'll get severe fading (due to nulls) during turns at distance. Whenever possible it is a good idea to point the antennas with the long dimension going up/down for vertical polarization. It is hard to do for quads, but pretty easy for a fixed wing. Otherwise you'll get failsafes even with ELRS. But I've been waiting for you to move to ELRS, you've got the terrain and opportunity/experience for some very long range flights.

Thanks for sharing

Grazie mille per quanto fai, bellissimo!, un gran peccato per l’atterraggio finale!, ma sono sicuro che presto vedremo un tuo splendido video. Ti raccomando fai qualche prova di trasmissione a terra, così da evitare le interferenze.

Ideal Spot for a VTOL Benz.

Perhaps a sea plane would be better

An informative and entertaining flight. What you call "pan interference" at 1:00 appears to be the heart beat of nervous pilots, seeing all that water and not place to land. Looking, looking, ... water everywhere! 💦😳 Great edit with music, as the "interference" merges into the beat (1:33), before going into hyperlapse mode. Nice combination of skill and luck on landing. This the equivalent of a rim-shot bounce in basketball. As long as the basket ball goes in the net, points are earned. ;) Fly safe, stay safe.

I tend to use ELRS alot now 🎉

Thanks for sharing Benz , iam glad you tested this system, I would like to ask if this system ELRS supports mavlink please or was you flying fpv, thanks for your time.

Hadir bang 👍✌️

kang boleh saya kerumah g? mau main2 liat drone punya akang.

Nice, whats your setup . I HAVE ONE OF THESE WINGS.

Bro what Camera & Mount u is using in the rudder?

Oh. Amazing Long range flight. I like it. But I hope that the plane was not damaged due to a hard landing.

Nice experiment and demo. Have noticed from the forum, that many using ardutracker rely on a camera that has integrated object tracking in video capability. It's kind of cheating, as ardutracker only doing the initial wide-angle tracking, and letting the camera manage focusing on and tracking an object once in-view. Only budget way I can think of for adding object in video tracking would be to use a Raspberry Pi Zero W (~$15) with OpenCV image processing / recognition library. This however would be more a software project, not an off-the-shelf (easy accessible) hardware project.

😱😱😱che splendida idea!👏👏👏

I follow you without ardutracker 😆

Wow 2hrs flight! What battery?

It would have been a lot better had the camera 📷 been underneath

Good to see a Nano Talon still being flown. I've still got one new in the box!

Loved that flight. Good music choice too! You are the FPV Airplane King!

No mountain and no ocean can keep us apart because of the gift of God we are all one in him

Morning from America. Great song and video Benz. Benz be Smoooooooth.

Good afternoon from S.Korea

And Morning from England 😋

Morning from Scotland

Interesting process you used to hack (reverse-engineer) and learn the camera control protocol. For code sharing, PasteBin (c, o, m, website) might be an option. Some transmitters have the capability to send GPS directly via an UART. Crossfire Nano Diversity is one such example (at least says so in the manual). This probably not much different that using your 'option #2' making use of wifi to share aircraft gps. Another option is to sync clocks in tracker and plane and include time with the gps data (ie: lat, long, altitude, and time), then would know both where and when plane was to 'guess' current position, regardless of any random delay in sharing gps position data. However, it might be too much to ask of an esp32 to calculate such realtime position 'guesses'. The problem you're needing to solve is definitely "Heisenberg uncertainty" related ... needing to know both position and time to a high degree of accuracy. Joking, but the problem is real, and exists beyond quantum mechanic systems.

Well done. I use mfd for antenna tracker but for friends i am preparing something similar to your camera tracker. Apparently the latest ardutracker has improved. Thanks for the inspiration !

Great insight, I had asked to show the setup in previous video because I had a project on antenna tracker, wanted to see how are you controlling the zoom. I was not pretending 😅😅

Very insightful Benz. Thanks for sharing. Great work keeping it generic, with just enough detail for the various key components.

Cool!

Greetings from Canada....... nice work..... I would like to build a Long Range Antenna Traker. .. You should make a tutorial how to.

weeeeeeeng

Really enjoyed the video! What is the stall speed of the glider?

Don't miss the bonus Binary footage at the end. Thanks for the call out @benz note! 🙂

Time to start balancing your props Sir......

Mainly because the where the motor mounts is very thin plastic and cracks very easy..

I just ordered a 2nd phoenix s 1600 can’t wait to fly it on 2s. Made the mistake of burning the other one out on 3s 😢

With FPV being popular, most pilots then to favour the Volantex Ranger (shares same wings). Most not as smart as you, overlooking the great perspective that a tail camera offers. They only think the tractor propeller will obscure their front mounted camera views.

Mantap 🥳
