[@tomstrojnik]

Anyone filmed paragliding already? Share your cinematic fpv tips here🙌

[@droneguynh6371]

I'm glad that you talked about safety and other concerns. Shows you know your stuff.

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks for watching, appreciate it :)

[@AddictionHappiness]

Wohooo! That was sooo fun!! 🤩 Soo hyped for the future projects 🚀🚀

[@tomstrojnik]

Me too, can't wait! :D

[@final0915]

this is very clearly explained, keep it up Tom!

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks, happy to hear that. Will do!🙌🏻

[@LZRFPV]

Another dope video! I just filmed a paraglider yesterday! Got lucky that they asked me to film but it was my last battery 😟. However I got the crew to go film other times now!

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks man! Get a portable LiPo battery charging setup ;)

[@ColinZenger]

Duude, such nice shots! congrats! I have also the Crystal coming in a few weeks, also ordered 2 more omi-directionals on top Just in case I need them at some point

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Colin! Let me know how those two omi-directionals work! :D

[@cedharb1899]

So good ! as always

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks a lot Ced!🙌🏻

[@aagirabel_MyLife]

clear and precise advice, thank you very much

[@tomstrojnik]

thanks for watching!

[@Zazen9]

Really enjoy your videos, keep it up bro! I agree with the iflight crystals being much better than stock, I noticed a big difference myself with only the patch part

[@tomstrojnik]

Appreciate it, thanks! :) Yup, there's a huge difference!

[@CYCOJOE888]

i still fly analog and thinking sbout to change to dji, but i think you have more range with analog and less latencie

[@tomstrojnik]

True that! But for my needs the range with digital is more than enought And the image quality in you goggles is a game changer - compared to analog. It's up to you to decide - what is your priority :)

[@AlexVideographie]

Cool Video! How you managed it with freeze fingers? ))))

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Alex! I tried not to think about it :D

[@Brotoshi]

Great work!

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Nick, appreciate it!

[@davidruiz7183]

Question on your pair of goggles are there two stubby antennas added also or those come with crystal antenna?

[@Noah-dx5yv]

what battery do you use for the 6s quad? And how long does it last?

[@tomstrojnik]

Tattu Funfly or R line.. both great choices! 1300mah or 1400mah. Depends on how you fly ofc, anywhere between 5-7 minutes with my action camera mounted. Flying in cold will give you around 20% less flight time though!

[@HolaACchillin]

Do you think those antennas will work on DJI V2? Great video 💯

[@tomstrojnik]

No idea, let's see what DJI brings us in 2021 :)

[@MagicFPV]

I’m using the Crystal too, and just reviewed them. What do you think to the strap?

[@tomstrojnik]

Strap is much more comfortable, i like it! Nice review bro!

[@MagicFPV]

@@tomstrojnik cheers bro. I have recently tried the stock strap again and think I prefer the way I can position the goggles on my face with the band that goes over the top of my head 🤔 I’m gonna give the iflight strap a try next for comparison

[@tomstrojnik]

@@MagicFPV I prefer the Iflight strap, more comfortable for my head haha.. especcialy when I'm not flying and I just have the goggles up on my forehead

[@MagicFPV]

@@tomstrojnik 😎 I’ll give it a go then for sure 👍

[@Florentin-Parapente]

[@tomstrojnik]

The future is already here

[@bennyeyeballs880]

Did you upgrade the air unit fpv antenna? If so what did you get ? Thanks man great vid

[@tomstrojnik]

I use the ones that come with Chimera7 :)

[@jmarkuuyer]

Thanks for the video bud👍 What is your camera angle when you do long range?

[@tomstrojnik]

Depends on how fast am I planning to fly.. Anywhere between 25 - 45. Thanks for watching :)

[@lucagrioni7252]

Cool, does this antenna works weell even with the DJI FPV drone or just with the Air unit?

[@tomstrojnik]

Honestly I don't know

[@lucagrioni7252]

@@tomstrojnik I'll try and hope it does ahaha

[@mazyarahmadi5424]

Good video. Please do some w 50 in not already and compare? Nj

[@lucasromero7446]

Sick Tom! Do you know if we can use this antenna with the dji fpv drone?

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Lucas.. sorry, no idea tbh

[@v55evo]

Nice, Nice and Nice !

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Jeff!

[@simonpopot1868]

Thank you for the video!! Did you compare with true RC X-Air antennas ?

[@tomstrojnik]

Yup, I used them before getting Crystal HD antennas.. and in my opinion Crystal antennas are not only more portable, but they also have better range.. Disclaimer: Not scientifically tested, just feedback from my user experience :D

[@Diggerek_FPV]

Nice video 👍😀

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks man, appreciate it! 🙌😀

[@goodwinduncan1505]

Why did you use axii hd stubby instead of the crystal iflight stubby?

[@inkbyfrank]

awesome channel! could you recommend a vtx antenna for the air unit for best range/penetration?

[@tomstrojnik]

I literally use the stock ones.. Especially the ones from Iflight Chimera7 are amazing!

[@AhmadFPV]

Hey, thanks for the review Does it make a difference indoor? The building i fly in is made from concrete. If i move to iflight patch and aim to the drone, does it make a difference in your opinion?

[@iFlyGood]

The patch will add decent penetration

[@froncheek87]

Mbps = megabits/s, MBps = megabytes/s 8 bits = 1 byte Nonetheless, great vid 👍

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks for clearing it up, didn't know this!!

[@CHDGREATEST]

Hi, May I know if you filming this footage with Iflight Crystal Patch antenna on DJI FPV goggles V2 or V1? Thanks

[@tomstrojnik]

V1 goggles🙂

[@CHDGREATEST]

@@tomstrojnik Thanks for your fast and kindly response. I just purchased the V2 goggle and installed it with Iflight Crysral Antenna. And then yesterday I just watch some review told that the V2 is not suitable with this antenna, now I'm confusing about it. Do you have any idea?

[@A.Zalewski]

Hi, tell me what goggle power do you have set? I'm asking because apart antenna itself the signal strength matters too :)

[@tomstrojnik]

700mw in this video :)

[@daddyinspanish]

Great video bro! do these new crystal antennas work with any drone? like a protek 35?

[@tomstrojnik]

yes, the work with all dji digital fpv system drones

[@maticrecer8361]

Do you still consider flying analog sometime or are you completely switched to digital

[@tomstrojnik]

Nope. Digital has become so good, that I've decided to fully switch :)

[@maticrecer8361]

I understand. A bit too pricey for me

[@dronature]

cool video

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks for watching! 🙌

[@sheldonhales7118]

Anything DJI creates is amazing!

[@tomstrojnik]

Yup, lately they have been releasing amazing products

[@SuperShakaMan]

Great video! I use the same Antenna! ;-)

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks Luca! They are a game changer!

[@20teamplayer]

Does it make the goggles super directional? If you planned to fly around yourself in an area would you be better with the stock antenna?

[@tomstrojnik]

depends on what's behind you.. I flew 500m behind me on an open area with no problem.. But yes, they are directional

[@ericwittkopf7192]

hey dude. do you use crossfire ? or do you think that would work with the dji radio ?

[@tomstrojnik]

it works with all radios.. honestly it doesn't matter what radio you use .. video transmitter and controller transmitter are two different systems:)

[@sprayhood1]

@@tomstrojnik thanks for the quick answer, mate. would you switch to a different radio, as DJI, to gain more range?

[@itsjonnyfpv]

Do you really think they are better than the truerc xairs?

[@tomstrojnik]

From my experience... 100% yes!!

[@SeeFPv-qm6ie]

are those the v2 fpv goggles? from dji

[@tomstrojnik]

nope, v1 :)

[@lukasaltmanninger329]

How do you fligh back home safely ? Do you memorize the point where you are standing ?

[@tomstrojnik]

Yup, before take-off I search for landmarks, that I can memorize.. whatever stands out :) and if you have gps installed, you will see an arrow in your goggles, that points towards you take-off spot

[@RYVENANT]

Do you use RSSI or LQ for long range?

[@tomstrojnik]

Nope, I don't.

[@Alejandro388]

Amazing speedflyer chase flight! But, man, how can you review antenna while running the goggles in the audience mode? The only way to test it is run exact same track with and without it in single 50mbs mode, and than compare goggle's DVR footages side-by-side, even frame by frame. This video was more about how you like it personally, rather than how it performed objectively. Still leaving a like, because i like your channel so much for all the other great cinematic fpv things you share

[@tomstrojnik]

Thanks for the feedack, will keep it in mind for the next review! Cheers

[@lwee7498]

Dude, Why can't I fly behind objectives such as trees and buildings? If I can what is the part that I should replace in my setup to do that?

[@tomstrojnik]

Did you increase your mw setting in goggles?

[@lwee7498]

@@tomstrojnik Thanks mate for your fast respond, no but I am using DJI system including the radio and air unit, I just can't fly behind objectives I lose the signal if I fly behind buildings.

you said not to fly into the wind but actually long range you DO want to fly into the wind so the current carries you home ;)
