Longrange Batteries compared (6S LiIon or 5S lipoHV?)

It took me 3 month to collect the data and packs for this video ;) Find a link below to an EXTENSIVE list of nice packs - with all specs and some calculations (max energy per weight?) Here you find HONEST reviews and opinions (no affiliate links)! If you can support this idea please check my PATREON

●▬▬▬LINKS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● HUGE Battery list ►► https://bit.ly/3IFfVO3 sponsored packs: ►FarinFrames LiIon 6S 4000mah pack
CODDAR 5S 4000mAh LipoHV
ZOP Power 6S 2800mAh Lipo (not good!) use the 8% off coupon: BGRCParts8 (expiry date: 2022-12-31)

bought these myself on Hobbyking (because they ship fast ;) ZIPPY Compact 4000mAh 6S1P Also quite interesting are the Gaoneng HV LIPOS - their wh/weight ratio is 0,202 (wh/gr) vs 0,212 on your LIION pack. So these HV packs (how ever good they will hold up!) - they seem to be an alternative with more punch (but they are expensive and hardly available). Heatshrink for LiIon 6S (maybe 12cm instead of 13cm works better?)

RC Mini Challenge - 4 DJI Copters chasing 4 RC cars on track (CHAOS!)

One of my FPVer buddies was activley racing those crazy 1:5 Austin Minis back in the days so we were invited to fly there and get nice shots and loads of fun! I had no idea how hard it is to get close to them.
Top speed ~ 85kph, 5hp, 10kg, 2stroke engine The track looks quite small inside the FPV goggles ;) It's still a mystery to me how the crash did 0% harm to both of my cams (DJI Action 2, Insta OneX2). Pure luck that there are no scratches are on the lenses! Most fun was had when we flew with 4 DJI copters and chased 4 of those cars. Chaos ;) ●▬▬▬LINKS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Visit the club here: mrc-frühwirth.at or here RC Mini Challenge FB Group See a full race here (but could you keep your focus on such a fast car for 30mins?)

Rare Bear FPV, meet and crash, 2 FunjetUltra mishaps

In preparation for some FPV fun at spontaneous meetups with my friends I converted my fast reno racer (the F8F Rare Bear from E-flite) to DJI FPV (with a simple backpack which I tested also on my EasyStar). The DJI Backpack is a super easy solution to get almost any plane ready for FPV. What I learned the hard way: the FRSky 2.4Ghz RX in combination with my new TX16S (and it's internal multi module) is not a trustworthy one... (there is a small chance that my ESC's bec locked up - but I don't think so) So from now on I will stick to Crossfire - also for planes and just use a 6ch adapter for the conventional RC stuff (where you don't just connect RX/TX pins to a UART ;)

There's more FPV Plane stuff coming up - been busy with iNav setup on my MiniTalon - will test it more today. Also upcoming: Lipo, LiIon testing for a 7" setup (tested a lot of packs already). These longer projects mean that I get to do less videos - but once they are done I hope they are of more value ;) I stand for HONEST reviews and opinions!

Maidening hard and 5 longrange DIVES at the same time! (FPV Meet)

Met with TJ-FPV again (like in my last video Winghunters). This was when TJ-FPV decided he needs a proper wing - Rene helped him setup the iNav build and now they maidened these planes. Since the weather was great a few other pilots met us there as well - also trying to test their wings ;)
When they saw the tempting mountains on the horizon we also had to drive there as well - so this was basically 2 FPV meetings on one day.
On the 2nd location (3:05) we were 5 DJI FPV pilots and ultimatly flew quite far out to meet at the summit's cross of one of my fav spots. First I was sceptic and only used my goggles for audience mode, but then we flew off into the distance, 5 copters at the same time (all DJI digital, 25mbit mode) and had 0 problems with video! Of course there were some mishaps with tree branches ;) and some close calls... Last week I already posted the short from the insane recovery of Chris' scraggle incident ;) And even when the sun was down, we didn't wanna stop - a tiny wing had to be chased ;) ●▬▬▬LINKS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Chris: IG: https://www.instagram.com/chriskuchner NappyFPV: IG: https://www.instagram.com/nappyfpv Pascal IG: https://www.instagram.com/Pascal_S92

BetaFPV ELRS Modules

BetaFPV sent these TX modules for a closer look - and I was curious how they look like on the spectran V6 (Aaronia). This way it is very easy to see and understand the difference between 50hz and 500hz. This should help you decicde which rate to use for best performance (range or latency).

Chimera7 WINTER DIVES - is bigger better?

Finally put this copter to the test. Big mountains, bigger dives! I'm VERY happy with the result - let me know how YOU like it.
Since this is one of the best spots (which are within reasonable driving distance) I've been here quite often over the years. Lots of nice videos from here - reaching 11years in the past ;)

Last dive here with Chimera5 here with T-Jay FPV (and his Chim7) and my Rekon6 Same location but with 5inch freestyle drone (Sector5) very cool session with the Sector5 on the west side of this wall ...a bit older? 2014?

Relaxed scenery surfing with my Chimera7

These were 4 flight-sessions in early Feb '22 testing out the new copter, more important the best 4k cam for cinematic shots. Would have loved to use the DJI A2 more - but it's very sensitive to jello (which I cannot completly get rid of on this copter - and others have the same issue).
Looks like Gopro is still king in hiding jello.
Stay tuned for a pretty nice Dive at the mountains next up! So happy with how this system works now!
Thanks for watching and commenting, greets, Mario

Scary long dive thru clouds... (and fix Jello)

This flight session was urgently needed because I got a new copter and after the nice wing-chase I couldn't reeally fly it in the bad weather. Since the wing video showed some jello (vibration wave effects on video) I wanted to try and see if the new "Telesin" frame mount for the DJI Action 2 would improve things (because the original magnetic mount has some play).
New mount? NO, doesn't change anything... Different settings (30/60 fps, rock steady vs "just" steady) - NO - still jello. Final solution to be jello free? (be surprised - or not - at the end ;) ●▬▬▬LINKS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● HQProps (tho I don't know yet if they are better!): https://bit.ly/3gb1m8A Telesin Frame mount: https://bit.ly/3rdfZ1w last video with Wing-Chase: https://youtu.be/Rt37aFeR7Dw my DJI Action 2 review: https://youtu.be/cBm5-nHy36I my Gopro7 video where I found out how good it's against jello!: https://youtu.be/1Cc26Grjmc4 ●▬▬▬EQUIPMENT▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Filmed with: Sony A7c, DJI Action 2, Gopro7 black, edited with Premiere Pro ●▬▬▬♫MUSIC▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Parallax - Luwaks Amber Lights - Chill Cole I use EPIDEMIC SOUND, get your account here (affiliate): https://bit.ly/3p6OGE0 ╔═╦╗╔╦╗╔═╦═╦╦╦╦╗╔═╗ ║╚╣║║║╚╣╚╣╔╣╔╣║╚╣═╣ → http://goo.gl/szFJv ╠╗║╚╝║║╠╗║╚╣║║║║║═╣ (best way to support me!) ╚═╩══╩═╩═╩═╩╝╚╩═╩═╝ (¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.-RCSchim-.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯)

Wing chased by two Chimera 7

This was my first day of testing and flying my new Chimera7. Worked really well and later a friend with a wing joined us - right into the epic golden hour - great FPV session - hope you like it - visit T-Jay FPV's channel https://bit.ly/3H440sz and thanks to Rene for letting us chase his ARwing!
Have to tweak the settings of DJI A2 a bit more - or use the Gopro7 on this larger copter (to get rid of some jello).
