China Rfd900X Rfd 900 Rfd 900 Plus

Over 40km RFD900X PLUS 915MHz Ultra Long Range Telemetry Radio Modem with Diversity FTDI & Antenna for APM PIX Flight Controller

This Ultra Long Range 915MHz Telemetry modem features:

1 Watt output powerDiversity antennas,Full compatibility with normal "Hope RF"based radio modems as used by all 3DRobotics and compatible Pixhawks, APM's, etc.Ultra Long Range, 40Km or more with directional antennas and a properly configured system!

LSortingIce Machine Machine ooking for an easy way to increase the range of your aircrafts 3DR style V1/V2 telelmetry radio? Use this as the ground station radio with a couple of large antennas and you'll increase by, several times, the effective range.

Upgrade the radio on your aircraft to a RFD900+ or RFD900u and increase the range several times more.

This bundle includes:

- 2) RFD900X modems

- 4) 3dBi antenna for air and ground stations

- 1) FTDI cable for upgrading and programming

- 1) Pixhawk to RFD900+ cable

- 1) APM to RFD900+ cable

"Stock" Hope RF systems are only good for about 1Km, so this is the upgrade you need!

Fully compatible with the 3DR Mission Planner too (same as the Hope RF radios)!
