    ​@Bollibompa for example with team black sheep crossfire radio and diversity receiver with the right antenna, you are good for 30km line of sight radio control, combine that with the dji o3 air unit video transmitter and dji integra goggles good for 20km line of sight and you have the latest best combo, elrs radio equipment is creeping up but lacks consistency on the hardware side

    • @redent84
      @redent84 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The "hate" is because it uses the same serial bus than the goggles, and for some reason if you lose video signal the O3 also shuts the radio signal, so if your video signal glitches you lose control of your drone. Almost every other radio protocol has waaaay more range than the video signal, so it's very rare to lose control of the aircraft.

      Just switched to ELRS from the DJI controller. After my quad failsafed (and throttled up!) right into my truck when only 10 feet away. I looked into that issue and found I wasn’t the only one with throttle up issues after a failsafe. Before that I experienced control lag when video was dropping mbs, which is usually in not so great scenarios. Lastly the buttons, the worst crashes I’ve had with my quads were hitting the arm disarm on the shoulder by accident. So after 3 accidental disarms, laggy controls, not having enough buttons to set the controller up how I wanted and the 3 big failsafe crashes. Got a boxer max, put ELRS on all my quads and it was the best decision I’ve made so far in fpv. All those problems are gone now and the lower latency in the controls was instantly noticeable and gave me way more Confidence. Make the switch, or crossfire I’m sure would be fine.

I thought the DJI controller was just gonna be easy no fuss, no needing to become a computer engineer. And it totally was, until all the shortcomings came to light and I could no longer trust it. Get ELRS (or crossfire but gear is tough to get) and never look back.
