Yep, that'll do it! Haha, nice work!!

 

[Fallguy]

The only thing that scares me about this thread is that guys are going to push their P4's to make the board and may not have enough to get back and possibly lose or damage their birds. Fly smarter not farther .

 

[Ramphex]

They can do that without this thread. No one is forcing them to lol that's a personal choice they will be making all on their own.

You folks know why my distance is n/a? Just wondering if due to user error.

Too much zig-zagging around

That's quite a distance, were you flying just regular Sport 45mph or was there some back wind?

Jake, I purchased from you yesterday. My customers asked, where was this antenna made in? USA? China?

 

[phantom13flyer]

The dbs antenna is made in Poland.

Sport very little wind. I did forget to mention that I also have a modified battery setup that I built. As you can see from the map I actually went much further, with a loop around Coit Tower and landed with plenty of reserve. I've done this same trip several times with my P3P as well.

I wasn't trying to go for a distance recorded. If I was I'd have continued to go further over Tiburon.

Nice! Now was that a bird, plane, or another quad copter that flew in front of his quad copter at 0:24?

Ha! Good question!

I played it over and over. Sure looked like another quad the way it flew direct in a straight line. I zoomed in on a still frame. Is it me or does that look a lot like a phantom?

Chuck what range extender are you using and will it work on a p3p

 

[soulphantomflyer]

Range race is fun and interesting. But only over open water or basically open field I notice too many flying over house and road in basically a contest that a auto/force landing is entirely possible.

I don't believe Chuck is on these forums. He's using a ItElite prototype called the MaxxRange. It's yet to be released, hopefully soon!
