haha this is amazing dude, i wonder if you have a fail safe

Yup it does have failsafe but seldom use it unless flown out of range.

Btw got new cool stuff coming into my hangar. A monster B-17 Flying fortress this week. More to come soon.

itu camera rotate assign extra tx channel ke?
5.8 antenna brapa jauh boleh pegi? av output kan?
*
Camera rotate guna channel 7ch atau 8ch untuk pan rotate servo (servo hxt900 mode 180 degree)

Sini dah saya buat blog untuk FPV mustang:
http://www.supermotoxl.com/FPV/UAV-models-...enu-id-119.html

Ya av out. Buleh fly antara 5~7km guna 5.8ghz patch antenna. Dalam gambar kat atas buleh nampak saya pegang radio dan vrx module kedua-dua guna patch antenna untuk jarak jauh.

Ni video dia:

too bad drone guna 5.8ghz wifi digital downlink...range less than 1km.... maybe later add booster with higher gain antenna
*
You use 5.8ghz Wifi? Oh no...anything 'digital' wifi always short range. You must use analogue type 5.8ghz (the same technology use by CCTV cam) cos they can travel longer than Wifi. I only use stock minimal 200mw for my 5.8ghz still go very far. Booster will make it worse since it will 'knock' several type of frequency nearby.

yeap...stock bird already came with digital 5.8ghz wifi....
and cant do much because the fpv monitor also built in the tx...
not sure if changing from patch antenna into clover leaf antenna would help in better video feed?
*
What kind of stock bird are you flying. A quad or a plane? Sound like HUBSAN since its the only thing reminds me of.
Btw i saw collection of cheap analogue 5.8ghz FPV models right here, looks like a great bargain here:
http://goo.gl/w8kNpF That SYMA looks promising.

yuneec typhoon 4k...decent enough...just want more reliable fpv especially during orbiting big building that blocking direct signal between tx to the quad

Hmmm.. actually if you can build yourself a DIY (Clover leaf) tuned antenna for 5.8ghz you can actually have extra 50% juice to get that frequency reflect around the building back to your ground abse. I manage to fly around some obstacle and building just as seen on my Youtube channel a lot. I even fly behind some big metal shipping container with clear signal.


Btw sharing my Fixed wing drone FPV (Drifter Ultralight) weekend flight with flying clubs, this time the clouds run away from me:

so what actually happens when stuck in the cloud? rough flying? or total lost signal?
do you have telemetry system?
*
If stuck just fly straight and find some opening out. Signal still strong and it does have telemetry, mostly you'll need to depend on OSD (Some HUD instrumental display) to keep your flight straight, leveled and pointed in proper direction, if you watch the below video you will see inset corner screen of live FPV view with OSD (HUD display) at certain segment of the clip that you can you to fly instrumentally without relying view from outside. Activate autopiloting is not wise in the clouds.

i have a question on FPV equipment. i plan to use:

runcam -> 5.8Ghz vid TX -> 5.8Ghz 7-inch LCD RX

something like this: http://www.banggood.com/Runcam-HD-Camera-B...-p-1040802.html

question is, will the LCD be able to display the output of the runcam(being HD)? are there a specific requirement for the LCD/goggle receiver for HD cam? i think it will work, but need confirmation before actually buying things online.

also, can runcam record while it is sending video ouput?
*
Nope, not HD just like QiW says its analog type video. FPV technology derived from CCTV wireless technology something you find from security camera system. HD only possible via high latency WIFI video digital transmission.
I have sample of RUNCAM HD video with live video output recorded which shows quality during live flight (RUNCAM HD + 5.8Ghz) via screen as shown below:

ah..great. thanks guys. i dont need the output to be in HD, just need the output so i can see what i'm recording.

so the runcam can indeed record while it's sending video output? i'm referring to it recording into its SD card that is, not recording the video output on the LCD or receiving device.
*
Yes RunCam HD will record HD during flight full screen. Video record output only optional and possible via ground station.
Here is sample of HD video recorded sung RUNCAM HD. Inset is analog overlay recorded separately for reference purposes.
