Hi, if you want to get into FPV planes I recommned something like the AR wing: tiny.cc/3zgv0y But if you want a traditional style plane then something like the Mini Talon would be a good size and option. For camera, i use this one in about 8 aircraft because it is so good and a the price is very low too: tiny.cc/9scv0y

I watched this video back when you posted it. I know a lot more about fpv now and have just watched it again. It's great to see a 15km flight in the weather that I can expect most of the time in NE England. Considering the cloud and the relatively low altitude I think that getting to 15km before video breakup is a good result. I'm amazed when I fly 5km on 5.8ghz and can't wait to switch to 1.3! great video : )

Excellent drone. My only concern is the altitude you were flying at. Did you file a flight plan, adsb etc. As well as in to drones, im a pilot too. And anything above 400 ft causes me concern. It’s hard to see full size aircraft from the air and I’ve had friends had near misses with these things. I applaud you for your project but if you’re not already, please keep it safe.

Does flying great distances over water effect range? If so does it improve range or make it worse? I wonder if you took off and flew over the sea how far you could get? I admit, it would be risky with next to no recovery chance, but could be fun?
@AdamGdoesFPV
@AdamGdoesFPV 2 жыл бұрын
Hey, over water it can actually reduce the range due to reflections. You could still go really far at the right altitude. My flying style is staying very low to medium range these days... but people that are into the long range out and back thing are able to do 100km +

Hi Pedro. Best way to learn is through forums such as RCGroups, and watching youtube videos and tutorials. Thats how I learnt. There seems to be a tutorial on YT for everything :) When it comes to wiring it all up, it's mostly all dictated by the Flight Controller/Autopilot that you buy. It will come with instructions and should hopefully all make sense. Thanks for the watching and commenting

Amazing flight and video!Did you consider putting the UHF TX on a tripod also and connecting ppm from frsky receiver to UHF,then you wouldn't have to hold so mich weight with your taranis.

+CrazyCroatianhacker Thanks :) Yeah I have considered it, but I mainly considered somehow mounting it on the tracker with a directional antenna on it. My main concern would be not much separation between my DL tx and the Crosshair. I hadn't considered putting it on its own tripod...

Hm,a directional UHF antenna,interesting,it would be bad to put the UHF TX close to the crosshair but on its own tripod would be good i think.

After building up the Sky Eye (2M FPV glider) I'm starting to understand the appeal of the Skywalker! The nose of the Sky Eye is roomy, but the cavity under the wing has limited space and visibility. I don't think I'm going to attempt a full APM setup on the Sky Eye. I don't see how I can fit all the gear in the space along with FPV cams and other gear. I installed eight wires to the back of the tail before gluing the tail in, anticipating the installation of a GPS/compass module, but now I may go with another cam on a pan servo.

Best model for fitting loads of gear with ease is the Skyhunter. Soooo much space in there!
@hughhemington9559

Yes, from what I've seen, the cavity under the Skyhunter wing is 3 inches wide, around 4 inches high and extends over a foot out in front of the wing with over half of it under or close to the CG. The tail boom invades that cavity a bit, but leaves a lot of space. The fuselage doesn't come with the door most people cut in the side. Not sure if the Skywalker comes with a door cut in the side or not, but I always see one. And while the Skywalker cavity is probably higher, the Skyhunter is longer. I watched a seven-part build video of the Skyhunter that was pretty horrifying. It looked like the guy was building the Space Shuttle. I'd love to be able to bury wires inside the wings, but I'm not dying to build any of these things "from scratch".

Hi Adam very well presented. Thank you also for the info on equipment used, however is there anything you would change regarding the equipment, Dragon link, Fatshark goggles etc? Please let me know as I am currently building a system. Again great job.....15k nice!!

+Michael West Thanks Michael :) appreciate it. Regarding the equipment, I think i'm still happy with all of it. To be honest, there have been quite a few changes to this setup since I first built it and this list is the outcome(E.g. I changed from a case based ground station to a tripod based, I switched from Fatshark Base SD goggles to the Attitude V2's). I have another change I am about to make and I am upgrading my Dragonlink v2 transmitter to the new v3 advanced which has only just been released.
