Ive used nothing but akk on my drones my favorite is the akk Race Ranger 1000 mw and it worked flawlessly for a yr or so took many crashes and ive used other ones also akk x2 as well
I’m curious what 20,000mah can do on a fixed wing. 🪽 😎 Years ago someone flew an RC plane with GPS guidance from Greenland to Ireland to achieve a world record for RC. I wonder how much W you need to make it FPV across the Atlantic ? Also, what kind of clearance you would need lol . 😆
I've not glown in a few years but i still have all my quads will this work with my taranis x9d plus graffiti transmitter all my quads are frsky and is it easy to do i never could get my crossfire to work so i sold it but i would love to have long range it would get me flying again also if it is hard to do can you point me in the right direction to someone i could hire to do yhis for me im not that great with computers betaflight is as far as i went on computers thanks 😢 need help 😢
Not me! Maybe when I am retired and live outside the USA which will be never. 😂 But I can't wait to see some rando person test it somewhere outside the US. 🇺🇸
There are a lot of 1 way drones out there these days. However if you are a hobby pilot that kind of power could give you possibly the most reliable fpv feed ever lol! - I would be amazed if it shows static on the screen at a half mile out. I never even dreamed of 10W. And here they are doing it. It's actually crazy. What's next? 50W? Let's goo Akk!!!!
u quadruple power for every time u double distance..1/2 multiplly by 4 is 2... take that 2 and multiplly by 4 is eight.(8w is basically twice that of 0.5 watt in range, line of sight) .to triple take 8 multiply by 4 again,, 32watt. so to politely correct your statement..its twice of 0.5 w..
So, the FCC has mainly ignored the FPV world of video transmitter usage unless certain lines are crossed. After all, how many people flying all of these vtx actually have a ham license in the unite states? And many have been caught and fined? The number is close to zero, because flying on 5.8ghz on or around 1watt is realistically harmless. This VTX is literally 10 times the legal limit, and the chances of stomping on someone who will find you for doing so go up exponentially. It is well established that the FCC hates products like this aand has purused it in the past. They stuck it to GetFPV's lumenier brand years ago. The market shifted after that, VTXes that were sold with L-band and higher than 1-watt completely disappered... Don't get me wrong, the product itself looks very well made. I am just concerned about drawing the FCC's attention once again toward FPV. Where do the power increases stop? There are so many things that you can do to get great range by just using good antennas, a tracker, etc... that I also question why we 'need' this product on the market in FPV given its illegality in most countries. If you're using it and are caught, AKK will bear no responsibility. Just something to think about.
Hey Justin, I love AKK Products, I have been using them for years, they are in my opinion one of the best long range vtx's outthere.
For sure. There were some of the first 1W and 2W vtxs that came out. Akk is legend.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Amazing!
Awesome... what do you expect for the maximum range if you go 10 Watts for common weahterconditions without any obstiscals ?
Great review! The only quad I could see using this probably has a fuel cell. Fixed wing would probably be more practical

my race ranger is 1.6w
Great information as always thank you
You bet Gene. Hope you are good my friend. ~ JD.
Does anyone know when the alpha 16 16w vtx will be for sale? I saw it on the website and then I tried to buy a few days ago and it was taken down.
That is a wild amount of power output. Great overview of the 8W and 10W VTXs, looks like nice stuff and also serious overkill 😅
Better to have overkill and bump up output than lose signal and the aircraft.
Hmm curious with a 6s 9000mah li-ion battery pack what it can achieve 🤔
I’m curious what 20,000mah can do on a fixed wing. 🪽 😎

Also, what kind of clearance you would need lol . 😆
HUGE power ! can you help me..Opposition may say US/International version .. safe to say International has more channel options ,more open ?
oh WOW that's wild! Thank you for the informative video.
It is wild. Historic actually.
I think you should get a larger knife for opening the package 😊
Thats my smallest one! Jeez!
I've not glown in a few years but i still have all my quads will this work with my taranis x9d plus graffiti transmitter all my quads are frsky and is it easy to do i never could get my crossfire to work so i sold it but i would love to have long range it would get me flying again also if it is hard to do can you point me in the right direction to someone i could hire to do yhis for me im not that great with computers betaflight is as far as i went on computers thanks 😢 need help 😢
is it possible to put dji through an amplifier?
get a 10w amp for dji...
Hot damn, I definitely need this !!!
what kind of a fine would I get if I'm caught? Love the reviews lol
Lmao!!! ~ Only God knows?... 100 million dollars so they could build their own?They'd be jelly! ;)
Oh man i only have 7 inch quad i didn't finish the video yet lol but i would stull like long range and need help to do it
be nice to see you fly it ! saludos from Spain
Not me! Maybe when I am retired and live outside the USA which will be never. 😂 But I can't wait to see some rando person test it somewhere outside the US. 🇺🇸
I got really excited when i first saw these but someone hinted they may be intended for one way trips...if you know what i mean.

Hey what radio receiver are you planning on installing in your drone so it doesn’t interfere at extreme distance with that giant?
I won't be using it in the air. But if I was maybe Elrs or Tbs would be a good choice for the best range.
nice@@dronecamps
Hey Justin, I use left-hand antenna . are they going to have the left-hand antenna?
Good question. I’ll have to ask them.
WOW 40dBm!
Too bad I can’t use this in London.
I always wanted to see the Statue of Liberty! 🗽😅
How far will 10 watts go? About 3 times as far as 1/2 a watt.
u quadruple power for every time u double distance..1/2 multiplly by 4 is 2... take that 2 and multiplly by 4 is eight.(8w is basically twice that of 0.5 watt in range, line of sight) .to triple take 8 multiply by 4 again,, 32watt.
so to politely correct your statement..its twice of 0.5 w..
And we are only allowed to fly with 1,000mw, but land vehicles are able to use it
Man I want this for uh reasons👀🤣
They will fit in the geprc ef10 or pulsar 11
🤔
Cool
2:25 LOL.... Bet the haters don't have that either!!!!
😂
Hallo vielleicht kann mir ja hier jemand helfen ich suche einen Ramen wo der Alpha 5 oder 8 passt am besten 7zoll
🤝
these things look like graphics cards
my plane would melt 😅
10w for exploring the country I think...😅
If the battery 😂 permits it. And 12 to 28 volts

I think to buy and use this in the US. You would need some sort of FAA waiver for industrial, commercial or government contract use. 🇺🇸👍🏻
gave me a brain tumor but its great!!
10W in 5.8ghz is equal to 2.5w in 1.3ghz , i see 4w vtx in 1.3ghz !
