Long Range Competition

FAQ-Banner

One of the most frequently asked questions that are asked by people who are interested in, but haven't yet tried ELRS is "How far does it go, and at what power level?"

The following table is a leaderboard of the current record holder for each packet rate, and the longest distance from home. Note that not every flight resulted in a failsafe at max range, so the link could go further in some cases. The leaderboard is separated into two different tables: 2.4GHz, and 900MHz. A leaderboard entry will only stay if it is the "best" for any specific packet rate, be it via power, range, or craft type.

To enter, press the pencil in the upper right corner of this page, and enter your record's info into the table, sorted by distance, and then PR it into the docs repository,

Rules

Anyone can add an entry to the table, and entries should include the:

  • Max distance from home
  • RF freq (900MHz / 2.4GHz)
  • Packet rate

  • If the link failsafed at max range
  • The pilot name
