Hello people, my first post on DiyDrones.

Very glad to be here!

Just got myself a brand new Fx-61 + Pixhawk Lite

This will be me first experience with the Ardu firmware

My goal is to run the plane, as light as possible.

Had a very good success with the Z-84, which flies over 1 hour, 52km (not the limit) on 4S1P 18650 pack, and would like, to at least, double the range with the Fx-61

Full Set Up:

Fx-61 Phantom

Pixhawk Lite

SS 1450KV 2216 Motor

APC 8x6 Props

Multistar 1 or 2  4000mah 4S lipos (18650 packs in the future)

EMAX ES3104 17g Metal Gear Analog Servo

DALRC QTX700 1.2G 700mW Vtx

Lawmate vRx + Cpatch12 antenna

Wolfbox LRS loaded with Ultimate LRS firmware (for telemetry and radio control in one package)

Half Dipole 433Mhz DragonLink antenna on the wing

VAS Moxone antenna on the ground.

If any Phantom pilots on here could share their Config file, that would have helped me a lot.

Even more so, if you shared your Taranis config file.

I have seen a few old threads on here, but those are pretty old, I'm sure a lot has changed in Ardupilot since then. Also, tried posting the request on Rcgroups, but had no reply from anyone.

Once again, awesome community, really glad to be here!
