A friend wants to collaborate on filming some sailing races using Zephyrs instead of helis. I guess less risk and easier to get a nice fly by over the event. some questions:
1. When flying fpv can you use the gopro only if it doesnt show the wing in the frame for orientation? On the heli with a gimbal this would be a no no. but since the camera is fixed why would you need the separate pinhole cam?
2. If I got the 1.3Ghz(us legal) 600-800mw system and just an UNO RX, could I get a reliable mile out of it? I dont need to fly more than a mile but I want to know I wont lose signal instantly after signs of static.
3. What is a standard 2.4 Ghz radio good for? Using a JR 9503. Hoping I dont have to go buy any of the EZUHF or a 72Mhz Futaba.
Any insight would be great.
