Default Very long range FPV in Thailand
Stumbled yesterday across a couple of the best long range FPV videos I have ever seen.

Very curious about the setup for such a solid video and radio link, and generous flight duration, however no details are shared at this time on the youtube channel. Hope that some more information will be available.

The pilot has great skills and is obviously quite experienced.

Video 1:

Koh Samui Sunset (7 min 42 sec)

Awesome. Totally worth the watch. Now let the safety nazis emerge from their caves. Loved the first video at the end flying through the tree. He got balls because you can really tell in the second video he has some expensive stabi equip with the camera smooth as a babies bottom with the quad rockin all over the place a t 230.

Great videos. Really nice and stable image quality.

I'd like to see multi rotors outfitted with fan shrouds like the Parrot AR drone. Its a relatively cheap safety measure that would add only a few bucks to the cost of these expensive flying machines.

Now if you will excuse me I need to go back into my cave and cook dinner.

That first one is freakin' amazing! Is he using a regular Tx or something rigged to boost the signal???

That's quite amazing. He didn't even use any directional antenna or antenna tracking nether.

Showed confidence in his ability and DJI.
He should be doing movie shoots.

The video is probably from a gopro or similar camera, so it is solid and with no glitches. Second camera for FPV with osd.
