Long Range FPV Ride Along With Commentary : FalconRad FPV

[@alexanderfpv6655]

I love that your spotter used the term 'homemade quadcopter' - sounds much less menacing than long-range drone.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Ya I think it softens it a bit in case the person doesn't like drones. Although most of the people we run into think it's interesting for a minute or two and then carry on there way.

[@CDRaff]

I got into the hobby thinking that I was going to be all about the freestyle, but I love that feeling at 0:30 so long range is where I have settled in the hobby. It gives me the same feeling that I used to get back when I played in bands and we were right about to go on stage. It a strange and weirdly addicting feeling of "confident dread"; I'm super confident in my abilities, and my gear, but who knows what could happen to ruin everything and have it all come crumbling down around you. One of the best feelings in the world IMO. Edit: That feeling at 8:25 is exhilarating too. Utter terror, and pure adrenaline.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Thanks so much for the comment. Yes exactly, it's always a mix of those two feelings.

[@OCDRex11]

Great description! I have never done this and I now know exactly what it would feel like by your description. I want to do it! lol

[@AErefrigeration]

I've been building and flying 3.5 yrs now. I was inspired by the great freestyle pilots, practicing, watching videos, buying product over and over. I went to Vegas to fly with a youtube personality, raced, etc. At this point I'm over the freestyle hysteria. Freestyle is good for the parts Distributor, smash, rebuild, smash rebuild. Once I discovered FalconRad and his Falcon, I've changed my game. It's all about the sick LR Falcon frame now. Mountain surfing at 5km away is highly more exciting than smashing your build trying to matty flip or invert yaw spin at a bando or at some city park. This Falcon 7 build is the pinnacle of the hobby for me.

That was a very adventurous flight. The setup of cam angles also works well. Your spotter did a great job as well. Always great to have someone checking values for you but most importantly talk to strangers that might come while flying. The waterfall was great, the glacier and mountains behind it even better!

[@charlesc7020]

Really like the commentary over the flights rather than music like to know what's going on in your head while flying

[@FalconRadFPV]

Thanks, I'll going to try and keep doing a mixture of both video styles.

[@EnglishTurbines]

It's like Groundhog Day, the sunshine, perfect calm..a little slice of heaven...Enjoyed the views at the top, spectacular...Your 900mhz control link will work way better when you put that Moxon vertically polarised, and the Dipoles on your quad too...5.5kms is nothing to this system with correctly polarised antennas...🤔😳😳🇬🇧

[@FalconRadFPV]

Ya it was one of the last beautiful warm days of fall. I don't usually turn my antenna to vertical unless I start having control link issues. It fits in my old Taranis case nicely with the antenna attached horizontally. When I go far out I'll set it to vertical though. I always only have one antenna vertical and one horizontal so even if I'm pitched forward 90 degrees or whatever I will never point the null tip of both antennas at myself.

[@ValleyFPV]

Great stuff. Glad to see that I am not the only one that gets nervous flying.

T-shirt!! So jealous. Wearing 3 layers now in the Kootenays.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Oh sorry about the confusion, I flew this in the end of September.

[@jimross898]

@@FalconRadFPV I figured. I was wearing two layers in September. I hate being cold. Question for my AOS Falcon build on the video side. Going to build the 7 turn helicals for my goggles. Trying to buy SMA pigtails. All I can find are RG316, not RG402. Any reason I can't go with the RG316?

[@FalconRadFPV]

After researching about making the antennas it seemed that 402 was the recommended one to use. I'm not actually sure of the differences between them. I think the 402 has better shielding for lower losses. 316 should work as well, it's what the extensions I use are made out of. I use an extension to connect the antenna to the goggles, that way I don't screw an antenna on and off my goggles module every time I fly.

[@jimross898]

@@FalconRadFPV I think the main difference is the 402 is semi rigid. But it also provides a better signal as you suggest. I watched Xjet's video on making his helicals and his take was, the difference is negligible. So the 316s are on their way with some double sided 1.5 mm board. I have a roll of 14/2 electrical wire I'll use for the elements. Just strip off the insulation. Been wanting to make these for a couple of years now so will be fun to finally do it.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Thanks buddy!

[@markifi]

this would be a great search tool for mountain rescue. fly out, watch the footage, rinse and repeat until you find whom you're looking for. much cheaper than helicopters and the recorded image is very clear. is it possible to deploy a radio repeater at 4-5 kilometres out? it could double your range. i'm not sure that's how it works (fly out, drop the repeater on the top, fly back to change to a fresh battery, fly again)

[@FalconRadFPV]

Cool idea. With drones this size the limiting factor is the battery not the control link range. The max range for my drone is about 10km out and 10km back due to the battery. The control link should be good for double that in perfect conditions.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

Depends on quad and a lot of factors. I have a few quads tri give me longer flight time. Including my 7" .. GF 7035 tri beat the LR7035 bi. Now if on my test I was carrying more weight or flying faster that might change.

[@LZRFPV]

Awesome! Are you ever worried about crashing way up in the mountains and starting a fire?

[@FalconRadFPV]

That is one reason I choose to use li-ion batteries. With a lipo all you need to do is have a branch poke it as you fly by and you have a fireball 1 min later. With li-ion they are put through rigorous testing including including short circuiting the cell, crushing it etc... if any of the tests create a fire the cell fails. They are much safer than a lipo when it come to any fire concerns. Also if you happen to crash and not disarm or something the li-ion battery will sag much more than the lipo rather than spinning the motors till they fry.

[@LZRFPV]

[@chknoodle2324]

Thoughts on getting into long range by starting with the 6s 5" quad that I already have and adding GPS, baro, etc? How noticeable is the difference between 5" quads and 7" quads when flying long range? All of your videos are awesome, btw!

[@bluecollarstoner]

The controllabilty, wind tolerance, and weight capacity goes up when moving from 5 to 7. I have a 5" low kv (2200 for 4s) freestyle quad and run it on a 4s1p li ion for 12 minutes of mountain flying. 8-10k round trips. Works great, cheap and multipurpose. Though in gusts it's underpowered. Building a 7" so I can run both the 2600 li ion packs I have in parallel. Then move to 21700 cells. Most quads can be modified for long range.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Well bluecollarstoner covered it well. Ya biggest difference is some added efficiency and the ability to carry much more weight (big batteries along with a full size GoPro). Low kv helps with range or running a 6s setup on 4s (maybe with higher pitch props?) could help with range as well.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

I have both a long range 5" and long range 7" . I love the 5" being much smaller. Easier to transport. I still get great flight times with a light weight camera. Can cover total trip 12miles. But you put full size gopro and it doesn't fly well and flight times drop a decent amount. Where 7" handles gopro with li-ion no issue. Each has their place. I use 5" when I travel. If running gopro I'll usually run 6s 1300mah and still get way over 10mins flight cruising easy. Use li-ion and go2 if going really far with it. My denver video was my 5" long range. And I have video on what parts are in it

[@TheMadmacs]

this is a v diff flight i think, the ridges make it really hard to pick an altitude or even rising cruise. i noticed a lot of turbulence over the water falls, its always unexpected that the moving water should mess up the air that much, i think for the final vid i would go for the mountain on the right, go right over the peak and dive over the lake and just get a good eyeball on the los and let the cinematics take care of themselves. then if i had enough juice left i'd climb the extreme ridge back up to the peak i started at. its longish, but if it gets close its an easy cruise n glide back home

[@FalconRadFPV]

Ya this one is a bit more difficult than most of my flights. That's right, there is always turbulence just above waterfalls. Almost every time I get in real close the quad will wobble a bit because of it. I'll take a look at your suggested flight path next time, LOS to the mountain on the right is quite limited though.

Thanks! Ya I do probably over sharpen my videos. I struggle with getting a really nice natural look and perfect white balance so I tend to go for a sort of surreal appearance. I'll try toning down the sharpening a bit a see what people think. I think I got into the habit of trying to use it to improve detail due to the lower dynamic range on the Hero 6. The dynamic range and shadow details are better on my newer Hero 8 so I probably could drop the extra sharpening that I'm used to doing. Thanks for the input!

Sounds like a bad antenna issue, wrong vtx power setting or mismatched channels between VTX and goggles. Just guessing though. That's early for it to cut sort of sounds like 25Mw power maybe.

[@FalconRadFPV]

With my eachine ev800d and two helical antennas I've made it a bit over 5km with an 800mw vtx. You have to have clear line of sight to the quad the whole time though. But with the receiver that's in those goggles, if you get big tree in-between you and the quad when 4 km out the video will get bad right away.

Did you using 21700 cell or 18650 for this flight?

What is the best channel and band for long range in 5.8ghz?

[@FalconRadFPV]

5645 should get just slightly better penatration than 5905 but I think most antennas aim for 5800 as the center of the range of RF coverage for the antenna. I fly 5790 usually in hopes that the antennas will perform their best. All that said, no matter what the frequency the antennas and the placement of them will be what plays the biggest part in video range when using 5.8g.

Frame weight: Carbon - 190g, Hardware - 26g, required TPU parts - 30g

Is it just your left hand that shakes?

[@FalconRadFPV]

Both I think, I sure notice my left more though since it can make throttle control nearly impossible. When I first started long range I crashed my first long range quad trying to land because my hands were shaking too much. Now usually after one or two flights I'll be all good.

[@MrJasonodonnell]

@@FalconRadFPV Interesting, I had the same degree of shaking for a good year mostly on my left (throttle side) causing serious loss of control - I am Right Handed, "but" as a musician (25years) my Left hand is totally dominant.

Salut Sais quoi l'appareil que ta femme tiens stp?

[@FalconRadFPV]

She has my old EV800D goggles. With two helical antennas. The EV800D work as goggles as well as a screen to hold in your hands.
