FPV Drone Footage - Long Range Flight To Glacier W/ DVR - 4K

[@jerrychapman9025]

My wife was violently hit by a distracted texting driver & has now been confined to an invalid bed (spine shattered) for 9 consecutive years. I care for her every need. Sadly, we will never get to leave our home together ever again to travel & experience such beautiful and spectacular places as you just shared with us in your video. Thank you for a truly amazing experience! We actually felt like we were there ourselves.

[@FalconRadFPV]

You're welcome. I sorry to hear about the terrible accident, but I'm glad to know that something I made was able to bring you some enjoyment and perhaps a bit of distraction from everyday life. You might like this one then, it's actually unlisted now because it doesn't really fit into my video type so well but it's a great little 2 minute nature experience kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnXCc62Ge86Cias

If you watch these incredible videos that FalconRad puts out together, Then yes sir. you have left your home and gone along for some of the most beautiful places on Earth, and did it together. I am so sorry for your situation. I am in Oklahoma (right above Texas. (that is why it is so windy here, Texas sucks, lol) and I have to mention that being right below Kansas doesn't help either because Kansas blows), I am a former Paramedic and my Girlfriend is an RN, we have both seen the pain you are in, and empathy is real. If we can help you in any way, please let us know. I personally escape this place and ride along with FalconRad on his flights, as I too fly FPV, but nothing like him. I always refer to flying as Therapy when I go, and this illustrates it better than any words can. God Bless

What an amazing incredible location with all those overhanging snow fields, glaciers, and water falls. Appreciate you included the OSD telemetry as it provided additionally details on the challenges faced. The GoPro view is amazing, but somewhat deceptive on scale. That you had ability to fly at over 80 km/h and were still felling the effects of the wind gives some insight into how extreme the conditions were higher up. Beautiful flying. (having this video watched more than once) Nice editing too.

[@FalconRadFPV]

Thanks for your comment. Ya, no way I'm hiking for 6 hours each way up to a VERY dangerous glacier, the snow can cave in and drop you into cracks in the ice up to 20 or 30 meters deep. It would require experienced mountaineers, a little out of my budget.

[@chrisbee5481]

Totally awesome. Why isnt any long range 7" pilot using bi blade props? I thought they are more efficient. Heard many have jello issues

[@FalconRadFPV]

I use tri-blades because I find them smoother. Many 7" quads do have jello issues. At 7" props spin much slower than a 5" so the vibrations are a lower frequency. The lower the frequency the more likely it is to interfere with HD footage in the form of jello. With tri-blades and my super stiff frames jello isn't really an issue at all for me.

[@johnandersen8999]

Wow! I've been getting into fpv and trying to figure what genre intrigues me most since it is all so exciting but I can only afford so much gear. I think this is it for me! I've just gotten started on your helical antenna design and should have that running soon. 2 questions Have you ever lost a drone super far out? And what camera are you using for the HD video?

[@FalconRadFPV]

Glad to hear about your interest. Twice I've lost one about 1 or 2 km out. One the battery ran out the other was getting behind a ridge and losing video then my GPS rescue didn't work for some reason, not sure why.

[@skylandmediagroup]

Absolutely amazing content! Is this in BC?

[@TheParadigmShiftTV]

Nice flight. Love seeing new locations. Do you do anything special to connect to satellites on your first flight? Sometimes I find myself waiting 20 minutes to get 8 sats. I have to unplug my battery 2 times and let the FC cool down as I get the overheat warnings while waiting. I seem to recall seeing you had something plugged in to your quad to get sats. Was it just a spare battery?

[@FalconRadFPV]

I use the SpeedyBee Adapter 3 to power the FC and GPS for finding sats. All it needs is 5v no need for the flight battery. Only catch is that the FC needs to have a 4v5 pad for GPS that is powered by the USB. It's also easier to get sats with no VTX powered up.

[@tenATP]

Love these videos. I am wondering if it’s possible to go further without moving up to 7”. I appreciate that 7” is important for efficiently carrying a full size gopro, but this isn’t a concern. I’ve done a 17km flight with a 4” quad and 4S Lion and am convinced that 20km is possible with a lighter setup. So 4-5” gives maximum range with 1p 18650s, do you think would 6” give me maximum range with 1p 21700s?

[@FalconRadFPV]

Yes I think 6" with 6s1p 21700 is probably a good match. It it's a really light build it might even be better with 5s1p 21700 to keep the weight down. Without a GoPro it should still be a decent weight to fly with, even with a GoPro should fly alright. I started long range with 2508 1200kv, gemfan 5055 props and 6s1p 21700, I was still getting about 14km with a GoPro. (I did over 20km with my 4" flywoo explorer, never more than 2km away though, it's video was sketchy)

[@tenATP]

​@@FalconRadFPV Thanks, I only just saw your reply - appreciated. I'm currently buiding an AOS LR5 which should manage decent range on 4s 18650 while maintaining flight performance. I do wonder how well it would accomodate 21700 4s1p and whether it would cruise much further than 18650. Tricky to get GPS outboard without blocking the props somewhat unfortunately - it's frustrating how the LR5 design leaves GPS mount design as an exercise for the reader.

[@zefixx6659]

Nice one! The Location is so beautiful. Is there a reason to Fly with 1W Crossfire? I have set mine to 250mW Dynamic and never have seen more that 100mW on 6km away. Sure more output power means better penetration but is there another reason for you?

[@FalconRadFPV]

No reason, I think I have it set to 500mW now. But ya 250 should be fine. I've been 8.5km out at 250 mW on the V1 version of the micro TX.

[@danieledm0101]

Nice vid as always, curious why didnt you set the Solo at max instead of 800Mw ?

[@FalconRadFPV]

No need, 800mW can do over 10km easy with good antennas.

[@Reecefpv]

So awesome bro. I wish I could get some decent goggles to do this type of flying. I seriously love just exploring with the cinewhoop and the 7" but I just don't have the range with cheap box goggles lmao. Iv been trying to find someone upgrading so I can buy the old ones lol 😆 maybe one day.

[@FalconRadFPV]

With good antennas (or my own diy helical ones) I've made it over 5km out using eachine ev800d goggles. It's about antennas and the placement, many cheap goggles can get some good range if you put some work into testing antennas and positioning.

[@Reecefpv]

@FalconRadFPV awesome I'd love to try a helical one day. I got a 3d printer now so I was wanting to make one but just don't have the time with 2 jobs and supporting the wife that can't work right now. I might need to try some new Antenna's though. I wouldn't think they would have went bad because I only used those on my goggles and take good care of them

[@pamelax64]

Amazing!!i have a question about your flight?it would be possible with commercial drone like dji 3 pro and other ones?sorry if it's a dumb question :(

[@FalconRadFPV]

Thank you very much. That's a great question, they are both drones right. This one is FPV so its flown with a camera view as if you were sitting in the cockpit so to speak. A DJI drone doesn't have quite the same control use, and doesn't work well for FPV type flying, they are amazing at staying in one place and getting a stable crisp shot though. But flying in such a dynamic way and flowing over the top of the environment is more difficult with a DJI style drone. They have the range and could get great videos of the same spots they just couldn't flow over the surface in the same way while flying.

[@earry509fpv]

I have really been curious. When doing long range like this, is it smarter to use a patch and helical? I don’t have 2 helical, but I have plenty of patches. I’m curious what’s the smarter setup…. VAS crosshair extreme array, helical with patch, or standard Omni with patch or helical? I’m running TBS Fusion on my Dom v3 Fat Sharks

[@FalconRadFPV]

I'm not sure if the fusion module has the signal combining thing like rapidfire, but that's what I use and it works best with two identical antennas pointed the same direction. With standard diversity swapping to whichever signal is best it might be good to have a wide coverage patch antenna and then a focused high gain one like a crosshair, X2-Air or helical. Avoid using an omni when flying long range, it won't help you much past about 2km out. (Unless you want to fly behind yourself during the same flight)

[@earry509fpv]

@@FalconRadFPV nice thanks for the advice, I haven’t pushed more than 2k just yet…. Not quite confident yet. However, I do own the crosshair extreme dual patch array, The OG LZR SpiroNet array, one 3turn Helical, my menace invader patch, and a couple other patches. I’ll start experimenting!

[@nonameguy1427]

Great Video! Maybe I missed it, but how mamy mAh's do your 2 batterys have combined? Guessing by voltage, around 6000mAh? So your max range might be very roughly around 18km, right?

[@FalconRadFPV]

Almost perfect guss! Ya about 18km with 6s2p 18650, 5600 mah. I use 2800 mah cells rated for 35 amps. More with 21700 cells but it's heavy and doesn't fly as nice as with the 18650's. Some people prefer going with 6s1p 21700 and 4000mah packs, its a bit more mah per gram and a bit lighter than 6s2p 18650.

[@nonameguy1427]

Thanks! I really want to built an small, nimble fpv drone in my next holidays, having previously built a 10" hexacopter (which flies like a brick lol).

[@ariafpv]

Hi, I want to build a new 7" for longrange and filming cars. Basically just as light as possible while still having good resonance characteristics. May I know the minimum angle without props in view on your radlion? Or even the motor layout?? Either I'm designing my own frame with some additional features I have in mind or I'll get yours

[@FalconRadFPV]

The RAD Li-ion has a bit of prop[s ion view until is is run through reelsteady, then usual they are cropped out. For filming cars I would suggest the falcon 7. No props in view, stabilized or not. Also its prop layout lets you literally (I have done this a few times) scrap the front of the FPV camera mount on the pavement while flying. It could get some great shots of cars with the FPV cam at 28 or 30 degrees and the GoPro at 20 or 25. You could be scraping the ground chasing a car and still get the whole car in view I think. Doing it a bunch would need a custom print to protect the front mounted antenna though as that's what actually makes contact.

[@medienmond]

how high can you fly with your drone. I mean, if you start at 4000m above sealevel for example. Does it make any difference when starting at 6000m how high you can go (without battery capacity in this calculation)?

[@FalconRadFPV]

I'm not sure exactly. I do know that the propellers become less efficient at higher and higher altitudes because of the thinning air.

[@flowstate_link]

Awsome ❤

[@FPVGeek]

Very cool but I was nervous with how low you were draining your batteries. I've been flying for more than 10+ years now commercially and it's a big nono to take batteries that low. I'm sure it's different with fpv but I saw as low as 3.18 under load. That seemed nuts.

[@ThereAreNoHandlesLeft]

Are you keeping in mind li-ion numbers, not lipo?

[@FPVGeek]

@@ThereAreNoHandlesLeft oh no I missed that that makes a lot more sense

[@FalconRadFPV]

Ya still had more battery left, li-ion run at lower voltages.

[@gregdavidd]

Couple of noob questions 1) why does voltage start at 4? Is it just averaging the per Cell voltage? 2) At your furthest distance the video starts to break up a little but i think bars are all full. Why is it breaking up when the signal is so strong?

[@FalconRadFPV]

Yes avg voltage per cell. With li-ion it drops down a bit at the start. There weren't any signal bars in the OSD for video strength. The video strength will fluctuate a bit as I move my head since the antennas are mounted to the goggles on my head.
