DynamicRangeX1 Moving Target System Still Worked at 650m

  • May 4
  • 2 min read

The spec says 450 meters. So what actually happens past that?


If you’re running long-distance courses or sniper qualifications, one question comes up early:

Will the remote still work from the far firing line?


Instead of guessing, we tested it.



The Test Setup

We took multiple remotes out to a 600-meter range and tested them across six distances. The goal was simple: see how each system performs as you push beyond the rated range.


The Results (Side by Side)


Older X1 Remote (Internal Antenna)

This was the original version with no external antenna.

  • Worked well at 100m

  • Dropped out around 200m

That’s exactly what you’d expect from an internal-only setup.


Current X1 Plus & X1 Pro Remote

This is the version most users have today, with a small external antenna.

  • Rated for 450 meters

  • Worked clean at every distance tested

  • Maintained control all the way out to 600 meters

That’s about 150 meters beyond the published spec.


Long-Range Directional Antenna

We brought it expecting to extend range if needed. We never even used it. The standard remote performed well enough on its own.


Before You Get Too Excited

This test was done under ideal conditions:

  • Clear line of sight

  • No physical obstructions

  • Minimal interference

  • Fresh batteries


In real-world environments—especially in urban or high-signal areas—performance can drop significantly.


There are situations where the remote struggles at even short distances due to interference. In one example during a broadcast environment, signal range dropped to around 100 feet. So while the test results are strong, they’re not universal.


The safest approach is simple:

  • Plan around the published 450m spec

  • Treat anything beyond that as a bonus


If your range setup depends on long-distance control, design it around the rated range, not the best-case scenario.


The Takeaway

The X1 Plus and X1 Pro remotes are rated for 450 meters—and that’s what you should rely on.

But under the right conditions, they can perform well beyond that.


The key is understanding the difference between:

  • Controlled testing conditions

  • Real-world range environments


If you plan properly, you won’t run into surprises. If you get extra range, it’s just a bonus.


If you’re running extended courses or wide-range setups, it’s worth understanding exactly what your system can handle.


Check out the X1 systems and see how they perform on your range.
