Typhon 3s FPV Lot Surfing

Put the stock tires back on cause the Hoons weren't absorbing bumps enough. I think I'll save them for if I convert it over to 4s and drop the pinion down a little. Wanted to hit these lots early in the morning to try to scope it out before driving around people, but somehow I forgot that's not possible where I live. Also started to rain a little but it wasn't too bad.

The recording stopped and didn't show it all but right at the end some white VW had pulled up beside me and just sat there looking at me for like 5 minutes. I eventually drove up to it and stared back with the Typhon doing the wheel wave and it finally left. I think it was the same car I passed on the road earlier and it started following me. That's where the new goggles would come in handy if they do have both FPV view and let you see your immediate surroundings. I had to take the goggles off just to make sure a crazy person wasn't going to make me send them to Jesus.

Signal was pretty strong but also fluctuating now and then which is why I'd want to scope out the full distance with no one around. Water droplets will also just happen to land right in the camera. Tried putting rain-x on it but it didn't do anything. Sitting so low to the ground it feels like a car could back out into me accidentally so IDK if like the whole parking lot thing.

Crazy range. What was the farthest distance the car had? Which TxRx?

Oh shit be safe brother , if you have tinted Windows maybe they won't see you inside your vehicle , only when you drop the rc car out , or once you pick it up , do you think they're trying to jack you up ? Or just a karen wanting to complain about ?
