@Supercrucket that really depends on the antennas you're using. With the standard 'rubber duck' antennas it's about 300-500m. Beyond that the video gets unstable. With cloverleaf antennas the range is much more, should be around 1000-2000m but I've not flown that far yet. With a patch antenna on the Rx the range can increase even more. For longer range you should use 900MHz, or 1.2/1.3GHz systems.
@josephmastropaolo The tricopter is home build, based on the design from David Windestål (rcexplorer.se). The components I've used are in the video description.

Great build! My components are right on the way now and hopefully mine will turn out to be as good as yours.

Was the tricopter made from a kit or is it your own design?
Ditto the video camera?
Well done.
