My three inch has been my go-to daily because I can fly it anywhere, and I've had an overwhelming positive response everywhere I've brought it out. Nothing negative, not a single complaint. I was rousted from an office park by a security guard, only to have him show me a BETTER little spot right next door and watching me fly two packs :) Problem is the SPI receiver is garbage, and the diamond VTX isn't awesome either.


TP3 has entered the chat.


I built an upgrade from the ground up. FPVCycle TP3, Pyro 12 amp AIO (f4 / BlHeli S) RCN power 1204 5000kv, TBS unify nano pro32 and crossfire nano, Caddx Starfire nano, Lumineer Axi 2.


I'm easily getting twice the range, problem is my RSSI tops out at 34. I've got it down to 32 before my video gets sketch (and that is pretty far away for this little guy) but I'm curious what's causing the problem and whether or not I should be worried, or just know that 34% is plenty on crossfire. The antenna it came with wasn't an immortal T, it was a T shape, but thin floppy wire. I cut a zip tie short and heatshrunk the wire to it, but it does have a small amount of bow because of how its zip tied to the frame. Also the antenna gets sandwitched between the frame and the battery. I've tested it without the battery on the bottom and got the same result. I've straightened with the antenna while it's plugged in and don't seem to get any difference. Crossfire firmware is up to date.
