Really awesome!!! Even this rally came into a crash you managed to pvove that this plane - this AP - this AAT earn literally a place among the best ones.
I calculated that based on a 80% usage of the 32A 6S lipo, 25,6A was available, which was consumed within 196 minutes. This equals a cruise consumption of 7,85A for both motors, equals 3,925A for each motor.
Aerialworks They were not very new batteries. We have about 22.3v (3.716v/cell) with loading. According to our experience these batteries can give out more 6000mah if we allow the voltage drops to 20.5v...
Congratulations MFD! What an achievement, you have proven your team. I was pondering which platform to get for FPV but after seeing this video, your products just jumped to the top of the list. It also looks like you are very engaged with your customers. Thank you for sharing this video hope to see more like it in the future.
Great video! I know you guys have put a lot of thoughts into planning this mission. Please post a walk around video of your setup! I'm utterly truly impress with your 5.8 system. Fly safe!!!
wow that is really impressive! I've bought a LHI qav 250 and it's got a maximum range of 700 meters, which is good, so it really puts things in perspective! I'm going to buy the Skyprowler when that comes out, I wonder what the range on that will be.
This is what happens when dumb FAA does not exist in one country. A very beautiful flight indeed and a well developed LRFPV. This is definitely my dream, to fly an LRFPV the farthest I could. Nice vid man, good job on you LRFPV system too. Keep it up.
mike o Yes we will. We already test the stock wings with total 6KG weight, it works. But still need to measure the efficiency. And we are looking for an EU warehouse...
well, the rule is zero response, bad post sale service. I have this autopilot, i meda 2 tech questions, no response until now, one of the questions was , why the Amp meter jump up and down , i see a lof of videos and the same problem in each video. Have this problem any solution?.
Very nice, congratulations, i bought a mtd and i finishing bluid it, i made some questions in mtd page, without response until now, i like to know, for example, the stock motors specifications. thank you
Would have been the perfect time to put on your landing and nav lights. After recovery and inspection of the aircraft, did you discover the root cause of loosing your OSD? Did your voltage get to low, interference or loose connection? etc. Awesome flight!
Great work! What type of LRS you used to control the plane? and what about the patch antenna you used on the AAt? how many dbi or gain?1 Thanks.. and keep up the good work! awesome!
Congratulations! Nice shots of traffic and terrain! 7:35 that was very close! Why did you choose to fly so low? Winds around the island could have tossed the plane around. Why did you fly so late in the day? Sorry for the plane! Keep up the good work! Is this configuration for sale anywhere?
Nice, really nice. After few, this is my favourite plane. My MTD is all stock with power pack and MFD AP. With AAT is real pleasure to fly. Few questions: What video set up TX RX did you used? Those wing extensions, will you produce them for sale? I would really like to have them :) TNX for sharing this video. Cheers Adam
adamskiktm Aomway 1000mw VTX/VRX. We just modified 2 inner wings to extend this MTD. We cut the nacelles and use foam to make it smooth. That means we have 4 inner wings, and 2 outer wings on this plane :) Maybe will product some short wings for extending.
Rocky Law Hey Rocky! Im just wondering how you could run 6s on your setup? Do you use a step down regulator to power your autopilot? and also do you re-calibrate the throttle so you dont blow the esc and motors? I know 6s will draw less amps, just cant figure out how to avoid burning the motor out. Hope to hear from you soon, and will be getting this plane for myself.
EUROASIAN10 Hello, it is easy, I just use two UBEC for power supply to receiver and video transmitter, one is 5v output and one is 12v output. It just cost me under USD14. You can try.
Rocky Law Thanks Rocky, I looked into it and now I understand :-) If I use the MFD Autopilot, will it handle 6S Input Voltage or will this need to be regulated to 12V? The MFD Autopilot manual says it can handle up to 20v, but 12v is recommended. I paused the video, and it seems the 6s Batteries are directly connected to the autopilot. Just wanted to confirm just in case.
EUROASIAN10 No, no need to use BEC for MFD autopilot because the current sensor would supply 5v power to MFD already. It'll supply power to receiver and servos too. I mean you use UBEC are for video transmitter(12v) and gopro(5v).
Hi there! Did you watch your plane on OSD to WP1 all the time or you watched after you recover the plane next day? I meanig... did your AAT suport all the way round trip, could you see it even haven't no control over it?
Hi Charles, I am very new to FPV. Can I ask a question, how can you fly long distance when I presume the MTD must lose line of sight with base station due to the curvature of the Earth ?
Full Details on the Wing Extension ?? How the Extension`s were Made and Fitted ?? Or Ordered Extra From THE Manufacture ?? Please SHARE ?? THE Information !!!!!!!
So did you have FPV and flight control the whole time? For example, could you have picked up the controller and started flying normally at any time or was this only possible because of the autopilot and onboard recording?
+LNX Gaming Probably autopilot for the above 60km away part. Usually the LRS doesn't work that far away. for the less than 60 km away, they could probably flick a switch and boom you can fly it again.
It took about 98 minutes to the turning point at 100KM, return leg similar (I guess almost no wind) Average speed appr. 61 km/h = appr 38 mph = 33 knots
Aerialworks The AutoPilot maintained the avg. airspeed at about 55kmph. So the ground speed maybe vary... Returning home was much faster than going to WP1.
6S 16,000 in parallel!!! HOLY CRAP!!! Very nice plane my friend, very nice indeed! I was thinking 4S x 16,000 but knowing I can use 2 is amazing!! Do you need 6S on here? Would 4S do it?
It depends on the airframe and what you have calculated in what needs to be for your applications. I have gone much further distances with a similar battery configuration with a cruise speed of 100mph.
Hi there do u still carry the FPV plane with everything come with it? I didn't see on u web? I'm interested to get one for my self , and autopilot ,Automatic tracker AAT, can u tell me how much all together ? Thanks
Did you ever find the help you need? I have built platforms similar to this except they had longer range capabilities and triple the maximum flight speed.
Congratulations for the great distance achievement even it ended by a crash :D
That's amazing! 200KM
Really awesome!!! Even this rally came into a crash you managed to pvove that this plane - this AP - this AAT earn literally a place among the best ones.
Exellent video, nice production, abundance of explanation, epic venture, BRAVO !!!
Love how the camera captures those propeller.

Nice footage and a very impressive plane. Brave of you to fly is over so much water.
Amazing stuff, well done!

It also looks like you are very engaged with your customers. Thank you for sharing this video hope to see more like it in the future.
That is truly amazing, this sort of distance used to be reserved for gasoline powered drones
Not anymore.
Really great video and plane. I especially like how you go farther than most people would ever go with these planes!
Sorry for your loss. but still a leap of your achievement! CONGRATULATIONS!
Great video! I know you guys have put a lot of thoughts into planning this mission. Please post a walk around video of your setup! I'm utterly truly impress with your 5.8 system. Fly safe!!!
Great job, very inspiring! Its funny how it crossed the sea and 'landed' in a pool hehe
Well done - great work.
I've always enjoyed this MTD flight. Fantastic airplane.
Excellent video and music, congratulations on flight!

I am shocked! Good job guys. Maybe it is a time to try LI ION batteries?
Brilliant achievement Charles and co :)
Well done. Next time you have to do it with the stock wings ;) Please make the plane available from a local EU warehouse.
mike o Yes we will. We already test the stock wings with total 6KG weight, it works. But still need to measure the efficiency. And we are looking for an EU warehouse...
+MyFlyDream . Greetings Sir I am working on a similar project for whale watching and any advise you can help me with is most welcome. Thank you
what a beautiful day for flying!
Amazing accomplishment!
how do we get the wing extensions?
Amazing. WOW
What motor, RX/TX and propeller did you use?
Thanks for sharing, that’s amazing. Wouldn’t be safer to parachute land? Please keep posting new challenges
God I love these videos
very Impressive! GREAT JOB!
Great!!! But i can recommend to try PITLAB OSD for you.
hi charles, we did a 100kn flight some time ago, but only doing a circuit slightly longer than 1km, running on 6S
That was amazing! Congratulations.
well, the rule is zero response, bad post sale service. I have this autopilot, i meda 2 tech questions, no response until now, one of the questions was , why the Amp meter jump up and down , i see a lof of videos and the same problem in each video. Have this problem any solution?.
Fantastic voyage!!!!
Very impressive my friend. Please next time do it with clean weather so you have better view .Wish the best from Greece!
+SilverSurferFTW For China, that is clean weather.
that was awesome, but why you lose the last minutes of the FPV camera? i dont fully understand that
Excellent job!
Very nice, congratulations, i bought a mtd and i finishing bluid it, i made some questions in mtd page, without response until now, i like to know, for example, the stock motors specifications. thank you

Great work!
What type of LRS you used to control the plane? and what about the patch antenna you used on the AAt? how many dbi or gain?1
Thanks.. and keep up the good work! awesome!
Wow... wow, wow" Did any one notice those two 10K Milli amp bricks on that plane! The batteries alone have to be at least 5 pounds!!
beautiful
Congratulations! Nice shots of traffic and terrain! 7:35 that was very close! Why did you choose to fly so low? Winds around the island could have tossed the plane around. Why did you fly so late in the day? Sorry for the plane! Keep up the good work! Is this configuration for sale anywhere?
Impressive flight. All the time I was wondering how is the OSD video so clean... and you had been recording it on-board :)
Nice work.
Awesome FPV ride!! Wich frequency was used in the Aomway 1000mw VTX/VRX?
Looks cool. This sort of flying is illegal now in my country.
Nice, really nice.
After few, this is my favourite plane. My MTD is all stock with power pack and MFD AP. With AAT is real pleasure to fly. Few questions:

What did you expect, leaving just before 4 in the afternoon for a three hour tour?
Nice long range reception
Awesome distance! What was the FPV camera used on this flight?
Incredible! I was getting nervous watching your altitude loss down to 120m! What antenna (patch dbi? helical? ).
Great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job!
Loved the video hate that you crashed. Do you not have lights on it so you can see it at night?
Hi there! Did you watch your plane on OSD to WP1 all the time or you watched after you recover the plane next day? I meanig... did your AAT suport all the way round trip, could you see it even haven't no control over it?
Nice video anyway. Nice story.
:-)
I wish this would be available in EU, the shipping and tax to Slovakia, is more expensive that the plane :(
How many watts is video transmitter and which is the sensitivity of receiver on dbm?Thanks and very good project
Nice now do it with the *AL37 airliner*
great work,,
do you have video about how you extended your wing span ?
congratulations, awesome flight, do you know the total weight with bats included?
Did the plane have video signal the whole way? Thats incredible if it did at only 400ft high
Hi Charles, I am very new to FPV. Can I ask a question, how can you fly long distance when I presume the MTD must lose line of sight with base station due to the curvature of the Earth ?
Do you sell the complete package of this long range version?
you should have been expecting this to Hallen why didnt you put some led straps in the fuslage or in the wingtips?
Those islands where awesome
Full Details on the Wing Extension ?? How the Extension`s were Made and Fitted ?? Or Ordered Extra From THE Manufacture ?? Please SHARE ?? THE Information !!!!!!!
Charles, do you have any information about the retractable landing gear that I saw some time ago?
So did you have FPV and flight control the whole time? For example, could you have picked up the controller and started flying normally at any time or was this only possible because of the autopilot and onboard recording?
+LNX Gaming Probably autopilot for the above 60km away part. Usually the LRS doesn't work that far away. for the less than 60 km away, they could probably flick a switch and boom you can fly it again.

Aerialworks The AutoPilot maintained the avg. airspeed at about 55kmph. So the ground speed maybe vary... Returning home was much faster than going to WP1.
could you please tell me the fpv video transmitter and receiver along with their antennas that were used in this flight.
Incroyable
What video transmitter and reciever r u using?
Would a parkzone radian be a good option for taking on a challenge like this ?
6S 16,000 in parallel!!! HOLY CRAP!!! Very nice plane my friend, very nice indeed! I was thinking 4S x 16,000 but knowing I can use 2 is amazing!! Do you need 6S on here? Would 4S do it?
It depends on the airframe and what you have calculated in what needs to be for your applications. I have gone much further distances with a similar battery configuration with a cruise speed of 100mph.
200KM of flight is an achievement!!!
Good job!
the video receiver is very important. which your video receiver 5.8GHz?
hi
great distance !!! what is the wing extend material used
nav light on, runway light lit up
The patch antenna that you sell in your web page, is linear or circular polarization?.
Hi there do u still carry the FPV plane with everything come with it? I didn't see on u web? I'm interested to get one for my self , and autopilot ,Automatic tracker AAT, can u tell me how much all together ? Thanks
Hello on this flight you are using 5.8GHz? Thanks.
amazing ;) have to ask,what does that system cost ? i seen one do a 100 km only that thing is a beast ;)
how long did you have radio/video contact with the plane?
That was amazing, congratulations! Can you tell us which 500KV motors you have used?
Aerialworks Our customized 500KV , 2814 motors :)
amazing,which radio controll can provide 100km flying?
Wow, cool, thanks a lot
Just for fun that's about 3hrs and 40 minutes of flight time at an average speed of around 57kph (35 mph)
+parajared fpv That's some really impressive endurance for such a small scale. Nice post.
how much more weight this plane could do with same distance ?
we need 100 of these in afrikka for a pipeline project..doc johnny
do you have a website or phone number to buy
Did you ever find the help you need? I have built platforms similar to this except they had longer range capabilities and triple the maximum flight speed.
Mmm?
Ok...i'm interested i'm all ears.
I need a set up for 6 units but for a model kit of my service. Let me know what you can do for us.
You can find my contact information on my profile. I do not wish to disrespect the owner of this video post. There are many simple solutions available
Lol
is that ground dvr or on board the plane dvr
Hi
How much capacity (mah) are you used in this flight?
32ah 6s
How much does the plane take off weight ??
what was your video set up for this flight?
Why u not fly it in the morning???
Hi, did you use any UBEC for this setup ?
Pretty cool.. Too bad this sort of thing is illegal in the states...
NICE PLIN
sorry to ask: but why is the plane decending over time ?
