To Infinity And Beyond // Walksnail Avatar Repeater Relay System

[@jlarson42]

A cool product from Walksnail. I can think of uses for it. Events like snow board chases down a mountain. Seems like getting the repeater up high would be best, like strapping it to the bottom of a DJI Inspire. Be interesting to what people do with it, and how they set it up. Happy flying everyone. 😎

Happy flying! 🍺

Thanks for the review.. wish to see it tested on the field. Please update the tests. Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾 FPV Pilot.

[@KremerFPV]

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

It's perfect for the war, all things go out now in the hobby it's focus to this way. Sad for one way and good for other way, the hobbies loses here for bad uses on drones. Nice product and review !

[@catbroh]

Nice to see someone actually test this!

[@KremerFPV]

😎

[@jumpstartfpv]

Thank you for bringing out a very important fact. So if I fly closer to me to land and the repeater antenna are not pointed towards me as is going to be most of the cases my video link is going to be weaker. That's going to an issue.

[@石鑫磊-c1b]

There are already SBUS forwarding boxes sold on Taobao in China, which can relay remote control signals.

[@KremerFPV]

👍

[@dagobb]

This is only useful for very specific purposes, I can't imagine someone placing the repeater 2~5 km away simply to improve reception.. You can simply move to a suitable location in order to get better reception.

[@NorgeSquad]

Why didn't they make the TX side RP-Sma and the rx side sma. And are the antennas Moxon or patch antennas?

[@mark6302]

That's awesome and it looks like a robot octopus

Fantastic review, Gal! Thanks a bunch!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@KremerFPV]

Thank you! You too!

[@PatientZiro]

Nice review, Gal! You didn't mention how much range you gained using the repeater. 500 bucks is too much for what seems to be a half-baked product...

[@KremerFPV]

Thank you! It pretty much doubled the range but keep in mind that the test was not done under ideal conditions.

[@willsintheair]

Thank you for opening the case!!

[@KremerFPV]

No worries!

[@propsoff]

Great video, Gal. I was watching drones deliver supplies to homes in the mountains of N. Carolina and they used Mavic quads with repeaters. Very cool 4shO. Way out of my price range, though...🍻

[@KremerFPV]

Thanks mate!

[@BrandonBeans]

@18:31 that thing is cool! as for the ws repeater, it seems cool but no control signal repeated. Maybe Walksnail is ready to integrate a control link into their transmission?

[@KremerFPV]

Hopefully they will do it down the line.

[@johncarold]

Hi Gal, Great video and review of the Avatar Repeater.

[@KremerFPV]

Thank you 🤗

[@ADfpv]

Why changing vrx/goggle antenas to RHCP will help? I was thinking all the same type is the right way to go... am i wrong?

[@KremerFPV]

Just to be clear - the antennas on both VTX/Repeater VTX or VRX / Repeater VRX port should use the same polarization.

[@providenceagent2372]

what would be the estimated range for this?

[@KremerFPV]

According to Caddx it should extend the range by 4KM.

[@providenceagent2372]

I wish they had something better​@@KremerFPV

[@KremerFPV]

@@providenceagent2372 how far do you want to go? 😉

[@mrmoon_fpv]

How would you be able to use the Goggles L? I saw the video released by caddx and they require you to change the antennas on the goggles x to 5.1Ghhz antennas. the goggles L do not have the ability to do that?

[@KremerFPV]

Yes that's something that I should have mentioned in the video. Yes - it will work however it won't be optimal since changing the antennas cannot be easily done. Same goes for the patch antennas of the VRX.

[@mplouis]

it is nice, but i thought it would cost around 200$, not 500$

[@KremerFPV]

Yes I hope the price will go down...

[@skygremlinfpv]

LET'S GO!

[@Dawe957]

How much latency does it add?

[@KremerFPV]

I didn't test it. I can guesstimate about 40ms but I didn't test it.

[@jumpstartfpv]

​​@@KremerFPVThat would make any proximity fpv drone flying almost impossible

[@herotrojan1645]

That monitor is what inch bro? I think i need one

Does it work for.... DJI AVATA2

[@KremerFPV]

No, only Walksnail.

[@jamesmason7124]

I'm very interested in this product but at over 500 dollars I will have to pass

[@KremerFPV]

Yes it's definitely not priced for everyone. Hopefully the price will come down if there will be enough demand.

[@josh12823]

dji all the way

[@EnglishTurbines]

Oh dear, DJI Fanboy alert....lol...🤔😳😏🇬🇧

[@thirtythreeeyes8624]

It's weird how it seems every company is focused on big quads and long range now, I wonder why lol.

[@SSIL_FPV]

@@thirtythreeeyes8624 hope for cinematic 😏

[@wtfdookiefpv]

testing in the worst environment possible, all those wifi routers and only being 4 feet off the ground is no where near real world unless you only fly around your neighborhood at head height to hit neighbors in head

[@KremerFPV]

Sorry but for now that’s what I could come up with. Hopefully we’ll see more tests pushing the system to its limits soon 🍻

[@wtfdookiefpv]

@@KremerFPV you couldnt fly?
