Only one-third of the range in this big city because of jammers.
The Danube Tower itself is of course the biggest jammer.

Wikipedia:
The Vienna Donauturm (English: Danube Tower), opened in April 1964, is the tallest structure in Austria, at 252 metres (827 ft), and among the 65 tallest towers in the world. The tower is located near the north bank of the Danube River in the district of Donaustadt, Vienna (Austria).
The observation platform also bears a bungee-jumping site, used at times during the summer months.
The Donauturm spire carries antennas of cellular phone networks, private VHF radio stations and several other radio communication services. Despite its similarity to TV towers elsewhere, it has not been used for TV broadcasting.


19th and 20th FPV flight

Costs:
FPV gear: approx. 600 Euro
Plane ready to fly: approx. 600 Euro
Costs altogether, with RC flight simulator, RC transmitter, charger, accus: approx 2000 Euro
Money you need at the beginning: 3000 Euro (crashs included)
But you need much time to be able to handle the technology.........

Powering the FPV gear with the flight battery.

Recording with Canon MVX200i Mini DV PAL Camcorder
Deinterlacing with "Alparysoft Deinterlace" with "Cedocida DV Codec" and Virtual Dub
Editing with Ulead Videostudio 11
Compressing with Xvid, Single Pass, Quantizer 2, MP3 256 kps CBR
This is the best possible quality in my opinion (with this camera, transmitter setup)

  • @truthseekers666

    Yes, a 960 gram foam plane can damage the structure of a concrete tower ;-)

  • what camera u use to see speed etc plz gimme link

  • @HKS134 You need an OSD (On Screen Display). It adds the information to the video picture before sending it down to the ground station and the video goggles.

    This is the Black Stork OSD, I also have a Cyclops EZ OSD

    fpvsystems,com or bevrc,com

  • @pizzasnail98 an eclipse? no. basically its the camera blocking out the sun so then it doesnt 'blind' the picture up. if not as soon as the sun came into frame all you would see is white.

  • @truthseekers666 you are really really fucking stupid lol..wake up and stop the lies

  • @truthseekers666 Didn't know they let such ignorant folk get a pilot's license.

  • @muni86 i'm just trying to say; I dont think you are insured for killing people with rc planes... so it means you'll have to pay for the rest of your life

  • @muni86 no you're right in that part but if you hit a small jet turbine engine or a prop there is a chance he might crash
