  • dx5e still considered a long range radio

  • 5xi is still considered a long range radio

  • read below first

    you should do your homework and not listen to ppl on the internet. spectrum you can fly 2.4ghz in the same feild with 10 other guys using 2.4 and 2.4 spectrum. get with the program ppl. stop dreaming and start doing stuff,like experiments

  • im running 24.323 ghz tx on video and my dx6i is a spectrum radio it switchs frequancys when one frq gets weak it switchs to the next now this is preprogrammed it will never jump onto my video feq. you guys are retards. talk shit. you probably dont even have fpv.

  • Please please dont fly with that setup, even for close range FPV. there are a number of problems with that setup:

    * NEVER EVER EVER use a video tx on the same frequency of your control tx, if your flying on 2.4,go for a 1.2 ghz, 900mhz, or 5.8 ghz video link. At the first hint of interferance, your video link WILL knock out your connection.

    * Also, the dx5e really isnt that suited to fpv, the tx is less powerfull than say the dx8. And your range wont be great.

  • @robotwarsaintdead Did you ever fly with a DX5e? Because it is actually a full range Tx, just like the DX8.

    The range is up high in the 600-700m minimum, so you can definitely do some FPV flying with it. And you can't fly that much further away with the DX8 either. With Spektrum you'll have to watch which receiver you're using, as they also sell 'park flyer' receivers. Unless you're flying with a DX6 which is less reliable (hence the birth of DX6i), the range comment is really a non-issue.

  • @robotwarsaintdead ...but, Spektrum as a whole isn't very suitable for FPV flight, because it generally will have trouble with radio transmission whenever a FPV video transmitter is sitting nearby.

  • @PHeMoX That is true, and I would advise against spektrum. But a 2.4 video link will make for an incredibly unpredictable and unreliable system. Also The dx5e isnt a parkflyer radio, but does have a lower output power than the other spektrum radios. A dx6i for examnple will have a range of ~ 1.5km. And pretty much any other FHSS 2.4 ghz system that is full power (100mw) will easily handle 2.5 KM. and could probably be pushed to 3 - 3

  • magic mike the mp9 I hear are bad for tight turns( tip stall)

  • @Richyzauto oh i just thought it would look cool because pilots fly the mq9 kinda like fpv, just up one level.

  • wait have you flow in yet with both your fpv and your radio being 2.4?

    i heard that you cant use both???

    anywaise i have a ezstar fpv but i want to buy another fpv plane. im thinking of this, the ezglider or even a mq9 preditor drone from nitroplanes...

  • thanxz

  • fucking awesome
