Hi Fellows
I've never seen a quad in person. Though I was working with computers in the 70s.
I'm starting a plan to build a FPV. Since i'm 57 yo I'm thinking of skipping the training wheels. I've watched about a hundred youtubes and other vids The question I have at this time is about range and cost.The kind of range I'm shooting for is 3kms.
I'm looking for 15-20min, mostly 20 minutes flying time.
So how much range can I get for $1000 building myself? And how much for $2000?
I like the looks of the Taranis X9D. Can it handle 3kms and what else is needed.
Are there some threads anyone could direct me to that could. I'm building this for security on my property. I can get by with 2kms and 10 min but I want to consider all options. I'm a fast learner. Everyone is appreciated. Thanks for your input.
