🛩️ Skyhunter - Long Range Cruise

Checking out some cruise ships with my Skyhunter.
Not really proper long range, but it felt like miles when flying over the ocean.
The chase footage was done by Sessionfpv. Check him out here: / tobyallen1212

These are the flights we live for! Having a good time with friends, awesome and at the same time risky sight seeing, I sometimes wonder why I put so much money into this hobbies, and these flights like these make sure I don't stop doing that 😂

[@tobyallensdrones]

Stunning video mate, such a serial feeling flying around those monster ships! Glad you like the chase footage man was a pleasure :)

[@NoAgendaFPV]

Awesome that you were able to take advantage of this unique circumstance.

[@Juli4n_MTB]

What an amazing spot to fly fpv planes. Great video thank you.

[@gizfpv]

Yeah it was a pretty cool spot. I need to go there again :)

[@Steve-O_FPV]

Beautiful footage. That's awesome the boats told you could get close. I am surprised you didn't do a touch-n-go on the deck to give them a show. The race quad footage is to really nice. I agree that flying over water is scary especially when you start to get out there a ways like you did. Thanks for posting, now I want a Skyhunter.

[@josgraha]

your builds are so nice and it shows in your amazing vids, love the aerial chase footage, tryna build a HW T1 ranger atm and your Skyhunter build is inspiring

[@TheAlexGuR]

[@FLYWDRAGHIL]

Superb video mate!!!! What video system are you using??? Is that 5.8ghz?? Or 1.2?? What anntena??

[@alanpaul1234]

Nice flight - well done

[@owlmuso]

I seriously like how you built your skyhunter. I am wondering whether it would be possible to mount a go-pro as the main camera?

[@gizfpv]

Do you mean, to use a Gopro as a FPV camera? You could certainly do that on older versions (Hero 3), but not sure if newer versions would work. You'd be better off running a proper fpv camera anyway. Still mount a Gopro for recording footage though, Skyhunter could easily carry one :)

[@owlmuso]

@@gizfpv Thanks man. No, I meant for the cinematic footage. Would def go with a proper fpv camera for the fpv feed. I have hero 6's where I upgraded the stock lenses to non-fisheye lenses as I hate that fisheye look so I am glad I would be able to mount them. Keep up the good work... its exquisite

[@doppelraab]

Good morning, I saw that you added tips (wingslet) on the wings. What is the biggest size in the wingspan. Did you notice any improvement in sustain? Tks

[@gizfpv]

I'm not sure what you mean? I didn't add wingtips too the wings, they were stock

[@MohammadAdib]

Where in the world was this shot?

[@davidrock7389]

Nice video mate, I really want to fly my drift out to sea at some point but I’m worried about rules etc

[@fpv-ig9tj]

Nice flight. which gimbal do you use for camera pan/tilt?

[@gizfpv]

It's a 3d printed pan/tilt that I designed myself. Files are on thingiverse 😊

[@kaancan7224]

Beautiful flight! Did you record the video with split 3 micro? I have split 3 but it has a lot of vignette around corners, are using stock settings or did you tweak them, if so can you share your settings?

[@gizfpv]

Yeah it was a Split 3 micro. I haven't noticed any vignette on mine. I haven't changed any settings either, it's all stock

[@kaancan7224]

@@gizfpv interesting, a lot of people using split 3 is complaining about vignette, its more obvious in low light conditions but in your video its not that noticeable.

[@gizfpv]

@@kaancan7224 Interesting. Maybe I have a upgraded version somehow? Improved lens? Who knows lol

[@k1ortia]

Thats some sweet flying.. whats the set up? Cheers

[@gizfpv]

Check out this video, it shows the full aircraft setup in detail 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4SodJxmlLR5q7c

[@martinverbaas]

Awesome

[@SM-cf7kv]

Next time show us the osd video 👍🏽

[@longrangefpv]

foam does float ;-)

[@gizfpv]

I'm sure it does. Doesn't mean I want to go for a swim to recover a aircraft if it lands in the drink though 😂

[@longrangefpv]

@@gizfpv lol

[@kerbouchaud1]

Love this!!! 1800 or Mini?

[@gizfpv]

The mini. 1200mm

[@kerbouchaud1]

@@gizfpv can you post your battery, motor, prop combo? I know mine won’t make those flight times but I sure wish it could!

[@gizfpv]

The battery I use is a 4000mah 3s and the motor is a sunnysky 2216 1250kv. Off the top of my head I can't remember what size prop I'm using
