Transmission
power
The
transmitter’s
RF
output
power
is
highly
configurable
and
can
be
selected
dynamically
via
the
menu.
It
defaults
to
100mW
and
will
provide
15
km
of
safe
range
in
rural
conditions.
It
is
recommended
to
use
dynamic
power
option.
This
will
allow
you
to
fly
at
very
low
power
and
the
system
will
increase
the
power
automatically
(faster
than
you
can
hit
the
power
switch
yourself)
if
you
are
about
to
lose
the
link.
Some
output
power
restrictions
apply
depending
on
the
available
power
source:

To
change
RF
power:
1. Enter
the
configuration
menu,
select
“General”
and
“Max
Power”
2. Pick
the
RF
output
power
you
require
and
exit
the
menu
to
confirm
3. The
change
is
instant
if
the
required
input
power
is
available
and
can
be
done
at
any
moment
Every
6
dBm
increase
in
output
power
results
in
a
doubling
of
the
theoretical
possible
distance
that
is
achievable.
If
you
set
a
power
level
that
is
outside
the
connected
power
source,
it
will
still
be
remembered
for
later
but
the
output
power
will
be
limited
to
according
to
the
cable
above.
You
may
hear
a
subtle
buzzing
or
humming
sound
on
some
radios
or
nearby
speakers
on
higher
power
levels.
This
is
completely
normal
and
non-harmful.
In
the
case
of
the
Taranis
it
is
an
issue
of
the
remote
itself
and
can
be
fixed
