Long Range HD FPV, fpv.blue

This is the first of many videos you will see here on my channel with this system. I've been testing, reporting, and flying this for a few weeks now, and now I have the green light to post some video with it. I'm having a TON of fun with it so far! There's way too much to cram into one video, my first "quick" look at the system was nearly 40 minutes long... lol I had to start over and keep it short. I will get more into detail over time in multiple videos, but for now, take it in, enjoy it, and realize that medium/long range wireless HD FPV is a reality, and it's a beautiful thing. :)
Update: New long range test can be seen here -

The flying footage was recording on the ground using this HDMI recorder - (You can also find them on eBay)
While the recorder does have HDMI passthrough, I found the output to be somewhat lower quality and distorted, so I used an HDMI splitter like this between the recorder and fpv.blue receiver, and ran the second output of the splitter to my display that I used to fly with -

Here's some affiliate links to the video gear I use from Ready Made R/C:
1.3GHz video transmitters (I use 200, 400, 800, and 1500mW on various planes)
I recommend this receiver to go with them. I use an older Racewood type they used to sell, but these are supposed to be at least as good with the same Comtech tuners in them. Apparently Racewood is no longer in business, so here's what replaced them:
I use this 8dbi Patch Antenna, it has been my go-to antenna for a long time now, for years! lol I've been out more then 10 miles using one of these and the 800mW vtx listed above:
On the transmitter side, the stock dipoles that come with them work pretty good together with that patch, but if you want slightly better performance and less weight/drag, consider these:
