@@antisolcial I indeed did not sell it for crack! A LOT has happened with that project in the meantime - I took it to the next fking level. -I 3d-printed a bunch of parts for a pan & tilt mechanism for two main cameras, one in color and one for low light, as well as a fixed back facing camera. -I installed a raspberry pi 4 on it with a 4g LTE stick with mobile internet. The video stream is fed into the raspberry via a USB capture card and then sent off to my own server computer at home, which forwards it either to my main desktop PC (or again via internet to any other device) -On my desktop where I'm watching the video feed I'm also running a python script that's taking controller inputs and sending it to the raspberry pi on the Summit in order to control it. This gives me virtually "infinite" range, wherever that 4g stick has network connectivity, I can drive and have FPV. The latency is a pain in the ass though lol but as a proof of concept it works fabulously. I will post a video that I took last summer I believe.
Hey man I was looking for an fpv systema nd I really like yours so if you could, could you please send me the links to all the equipment you used in this video fpv wise. Thank you!
After circling around the internet trying to see what people are running and coming back to this video I've come to a simple conclusion. You can't get long range FPV in a car. I mean, you CAN, but you're honestly just not supposed to. If someone understands radio, they are probably honoring good etiquette. If you live out somewhere in the country then you might get away with it. Otherwise, there's too large a chance you could be interfering with local repeaters and things like that trying to mess around with 1.2 ghz vtx. 5.8ghz like people are using a lot of can be done rather well with certain proprietary technology but it still has its reasonable limits, being that it's using a wavelength that is not good at penetrating objects. If you had a place out in the country with a lot of wide open space and nothing but trees, you could place your receiver on the roof with a big directional antenna on it and get a lot more range. Or you'd have to build a nice enough directional antenna on a little ground station that you can make sure is facing the direction of your car out in the distance. If necessary you could just use a 2.4ghz signal boost for the controller and low pass filter if necessary to keep the 1.3 vtz harmonics from interfering with the 2.4. Going beyond a setup like that in an urban environment may be something you'd want to keep to yourself as the fun police will likely not approve.
Wow, my DJI fpv would have died in the first 500m.....anyway, would you be able to share how or what mechanism you used to dumpen the camera shake/vibration? is it the suspension only or you have a gedget installed like a gibal or any special mountings? I'd really appreciate your help since this is the only thing I'm not happy yet on my car. Aamazing setup and thanks in advance. Cheers.
This is actually insane. Do you have any links to a similar fpv setup? 5.8 ghz gets bad video and bad signal just after a wall. What do you recommend for an fpv system?
Please do a video on your setup. I've done about 10 different setups on my rc cars with 5.8Ghz and 2.4mhz. I'm ready to switch to 1.3ghz and 900mhz. I assume you did this for the awesome range
I no longer have this truck together. But if you go through these comments I've described everything I have in that truck a few times. Hope that helps ya out.. It's all there
@@imchris5000 hmm, these woods I'd say are a an 1/8th mile maybe a lil over. BUt I have no breakup and I can ride this whole area no problems, so I imagine i could go further.
This will all come down to goggles and antenna setup plus it will change due to differences in terrain. You can boost signals. Watch some drone videos.
I was just curious if you ever tried a biquad antenna on your VTX receiver I tried both the flat panel and the biquad and I feel like I get better video quality from the biquad
@@DameMediaVids Nice. That gives me hopes of this 1.3ghz setup I just got going. Literally just came back in the house trying to test the range and my 2.4ghz controller transmitter ended up being the bottleneck. I'm kind of afraid of interfering with local shit pushing too much power but I really want to try 433mhz as opposed to trying to boost this 2.4ghz further.
@@Magneticitist I don't think you'll interfere with any signal. 2.4 is not going to go far, plus it don't penetrate at all. 5.8 even worse. Either 900 or 915 will work, but 433mhz is king. Penetrate through anything. Then from there, it's all about your antennas.
@@DameMediaVids So I guess I'm wrong to think people are using fairly large tx power on 433, it must actually be fairly small since it might be hard to find a high power one anyway.. I guess since it's not really attenuating then you're right it's all about the antenna gain.
Great job i just found your channel, i have all the equipment, struggling to put it all together. great video I have a couple questions if you don't mind a call in the future. I want all my rc cars fpv, my current system is the 5.8, of course, I can get ok range. I'm working on building a ground station also . Thanks
Hi, my apologies for taking so long to respond. For some reason im just seeing your message. Shoot me an email at KingCarolina01@yahoo.com if you need to. YOu can also message me on here. Others in the comments have asked questions too,, so you might find the answers you seek in there. Good luck!
I’m trying to get into fpv rc cars and I want to go a long distance like around a 1.5-1.8 miles I just want to take it around the neighborhood or troll in stores do u have good recommendations to order online like on Amazon or some sort Thankyou for the replies!!
Hi. I got my video transmitter from ReadymadeRc. It's a 1.3ghz transmitter. I'm using Fat shark HD3 goggles. I'm using a VAS 1.3ghz antenna from Getfpv.com. I'm using a Taranis QX7 radio from GetFpv com. I'm using an Immersion Rc 433 MHz radio transmitter module from ReadymadeRc. Lastly, I'm using the matching immersion rc 433 MHz receiver on my car. The HD camera for this video is a Go Pro hero 7 black. The camera that I'm looking through is a runcam fpv camera. The RC truck is an old Axial SCX crawler with a brushed motor in it. Hope this helps!!
Yes, please, Dame, list and/ or link to what worked for you. FWIW, since you did this, RadioLink and DumboRC have transmitters that claim 600 meters/ 1900 feet. For many, that's good enough. What we need is the video system. Hopefully, it's affordable. I hope a ground station isn't needed so this is very portable. Thanks.
@@kronosdarkangel5290 immersion RC Ezuhf Jr module that goes on the transmitter. The receiver is an 8 channel ezuhf receiver that goes on truck. The vtx (video transmitter) is a 1.3ghz 800mw that I found on Amazon. Any brand will work. The video receiver that i use to see where I'm going is a 1.3ghz module from fatshark RC. I use Fatshark goggles instead of a video screen. The antennas on these setups are EVERYTHING. I use IBCrazy 1.3ghz mad mushroom on the video transmitter. I use IBCrazy 9.5dbi patch antenna on video receiver module. That's all my gear.
@@kronosdarkangel5290 well, I'd say I've went about 2 miles out with this set up, but that was out in the country and there was fairly no trees or obstructions. Through these woods as far as vision goes, I can see crystal clear with not much break-up, and that's because of the 1.3ghz vtx and the antennas. Again, if you don't get strong enough antennas, it won't matter what equipment you have. 1.3ghz penetrates between walls, trees houses etc. A normal drone like a DJI phantom (I have one) uses 5.8ghz video. It won't penetrate well at all. As you see in the video I go up and down hills and down into the creek where the ground was in-between me and the truck but I was still able to drive out. But no prob man any questions I'll answer if I can help.

I'm not using any type of gimbal. It's just the minor stabilization from a go pro session 5. The suspension being so plush really helps.
Oh and thank you for the compliments 😊
Hi do you recommend any budget options when it comes to mid-long range fpv rc cars?
A great starter as they really need to be large to help avoid rolling over.. Go for a ZD Racing DBX-07 - Good price and will certainly be suitable.
AWESOME

what video tx and antennas are you using?
Look down through comments I describe and explain it all and everything I have
Bro how far in distance does it go that’s all I want to know can they go really far to ride to other areas

No, I've only used a dipole antenna, and now I'm using the VAS Mad Mushroom on my vtx. Perfect clarity, range and penetration so far.
