Firstly depending on your location, if you're in a flat area, up high or in a populated area, you will either achieve more or less range. This is purely intended as a reference to help you gauge Standard FrSky System. Also note that this test was done away from populated areas and on private property . . so please be careful and don't fly unsafely.
With this test we used stock FrSky with and 200mw HK 5.8Ghz video system using custom built Skew Planar antenna and Clover Leaf. Just beyond the 3klm point Failsafe kicked in and video was lost for about 20seconds, until the aircraft turned back home.
So in good conditions you really wouldn't want to fly beyond this sort of distance unless you don't want your aircraft back again.
Now before anyone asks about the OSD footage, I never recorded it due to memory card issues. Won't make that mistake on the next flight test.
Bixler had the Hero2 on it and the Ground footage is from the Hero3 Silver Edition
NEXT RANGE TEST

With the next range test we will fly using a Patch antenna on the RC TX and Helical antenna for video RX. I'm expecting failsafe to kick in between 6.5 - 8 klms range.
In any case I hope you enjoy the video :)
