CC Long Range Rate stabilized flight using Zephyr II, 433Mhz EzUHF control and 1.3Ghz 400mw video. Using the EzUHF spectrum analyzer we can see a huge spike in interference between 430-433. Next flight will be 435-437Mhz on the EzUHF.

awesome!

Tried manual control at 435-437mhz and it was just as bad. There is something near the Villa and all around Guia using those frequencies for high powered communication.

Is it people with PipX's turned on?

Is it people with PipX's turned on?

No, you hit pockets where RSSI jumps from 55-60 to 75-80 at the round about (see video) and then its really bad from then on. No one is using the Pipx modems as we have been focusing mostly on guidance and the EKF on Revo.

Getting the Zephyr ready for Revo guided flight, trusting the Revo with $1,000 worth of electronics and plane! You can see the pitot tube on the front.

Get ready for the conversion........

Revo Guided flight on a Bixler, we have done multiple guided flights but I am not going to upload all the videos. The video was done via a keyring camera and the plane only had Xbee 900 Pro telemetry, no FPV or manual control as we used Spektrum so it dropped at about 500m. Total flight length of about 5km.
