How Much Range Can the RadioMaster MT12 Get? FPV RC Car Maximum Range Testing - ELRS

I have a full tutorial video coming out for the MT12. It is a complicated radio compared to most RC Car remotes, but that's just because more features = more complexity. This thing does it all.

Maximum Distance At the Dry Lakebed:
0.94 of a mile. Not even 1 mile!! I couldn’t believe it, but Google Maps is right on the money. The name is Lake Katchess in WA, if ya’ll wanna take a look. We drove from the tree line by the dam, to the tree line on the north-east side 🤙

Here are links to the products, they all support my channel and have zero added cost to any of them:

My Arrma Typhon has ELRS PWM receiver with a Walksnail hd system but since i build fpv drones, i decided to use my fpv Radiomaster Boxer transmitter with it so i didn't have to purchase another transmitter. ELRS is the best thing that happen in the RC world. All my 14 fpv quads have ELRS installed and i have never lost a signal. Great review as always.

I can't wait to test mine out! Currently, I will have to wait until next year, but your videos give me justice. Keep up the hard work! Looks promising!

I saw you have 2 different types of antennas on your air units. Which one do you think is best for long range? I'm running analog. (I thought I saw lumenier axii 2 antennas on the old air unit but couldn't tell what was on your new one) all info helps!!😁 Great video by the way love your channel!😁

Nice dude!! Epic run, thats gotta be half a mile for sure. Thanks for the shout out, you need anything i gotchu!

For better range and penetration, check out the “new” 915 MHz ELRS radio protocol by Radiomaster. (No link this time lol)

The camera quality is so good, it makes most drone cameras look bad. Btw You should Upgrade your Rc car to the Dbx 07 its 1/7th scale about the same size but with better suspension and upgradability.

I love ELRS. Great car setup, and awesome video.

Very impressive range! 👍 And I was so proud to get > 400 meters w/ my WLToys stock radio today… 😂 I still have to wait for my MT12 because 1 item from RadioMaster is in backorder. 😢 Wish me luck, I just found a never driven Lasernut for just 300 bucks! 😁 So, "arming" really helps w/ video range? Well, then I know what to add to my tiny 1/12 FPV car this weekend. (It's MegaBIT/second btw.) (btw #2: subscribed ✅)

I've just discovered your channel, I love your videos, you've just won a subscription.
i've got a question, what kind of lipo do you use and how long do you run for with the whole system plugged in?

[danieltrilopez]

I'm still using Crossfire 915mhz, for 1.2ghz analog video works pretty well. I'll try ELRS but maybe 915mhz version

[dennislilley]

I have the radiomaster mt12 and r85c receiver in my rc fishing line hauler bait dropper boat its amazing range is not a issue anymore

[FirefliesAndAliens]

Very good quality, I would very much like if you go in depth how you build this long rang fpv system, in a video.
And maybe list all items you need to build it yourself.
I am a new subscriber for sure! 😁

[keylitho]

Great stuff... When will you have that board available..?
Also Mbps is MegaBitsPerSecond.. Not Bytes.. 😄

[Magneticitist]

Damn I didn't even get notified of your new videos bro. That is some amazing range on both the control and video. I've been wondering about this ELRS stuff compared to crossfire but have already invested so much in crossfire. ELRS is looking really good though. I want to make another FPV purchase but I can't decide on trying some Goggles 2, a new car, or messing with the control system. So far I haven't had problems with Crossfire though.

[PsytheNet]

I’d pay for a class that goes really in depth on everything, the electronics, how and why they work, everything needed, how to make the connections, the files for the 3d printed stuff, other possibilities and ideas, all put in one place, and possibly if i could ask you questions as i went that’d be cool, but if it’s all just organized and written well that’s all i need

[sgtcrusher]

that was am amazing technical feat sweet!

[Ace]

Can't wait to put my gear together later. just can't decide to go with dji or walksnail. nice vid👍

[Filipenetyou]

Hey friend, I follow your videos, I'm trying to improve the signal on my RC FPV car, a 5.8 signal amplifier

[thelawfamilyproduction]

Oh btw. Those proline shocks will help the jitters on the video. No where as much as a gimbals but helps.

[RexSmithII]

Nice video. When going with that radio does the avc carry over?
