In this episode we fly WalkSnail up "The Gantlet Trail" to see how it performs & if it can survive!
I'm a little nervous about this test as I'm really starting to like the system and don't want to lose the quad! Ultimately I'd love to take WalkSnail out for some Mountain Surfing, and really enjoy this crispy image.

We're using my newest Quad Helical antenna setup "The Copper Crown" and will be running both WalkSnail & HDZero up the trail to see how they compare. Two Way Re-Broadcast System vs a Simple Transmit Only System with static breakup.

* At some point I need to get a DJI FPV system to test, if you wanna "Donate to the Cause" everything helps! "Buy Me a Coffee": https://www.buymeacoffee.com/nhNDRzf2sx

------- Video Notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- This is NOT an "Image Comparison" test. These tests were run at different times of day, with different lighting conditions
- I tested different ELRS settings, as this trail is difficult for the Transmitter as well...:
• The HDZero test has ELRS set to 500hz @100mW
• The WalkSnail test has ELRS set to 250hz @100mW
• A lot of variables... and it's hard to see since the OSD both freeze... but just something to note if you are curious.
