looking good dude, only thing I would suggest is putting the Vtx out on the arm with the antenna pointing down, I just done this today with mine and pushed out to 650metres no problem would have went further if the wind wasnt so bad, with my Vtx positioned the same as yours I was only getting around 350-400 metres before the video signal was breaking up really bad!!

Thanks

I have it that way on my Reptile frame with APM.. but wanted to keep cables short on the TBS.. also moving it to the arm means its near the ESC.

Will give it a try first..   and see what range I get..  its the long range ImmersionRC that is on this frame.

yeah mate mines the long range also but getting far better results with it on the arm, give it a try as is mate and let me know how you get on.
