Exclamation 5 km+ Radio Range!

Yep, 5 kilometer and more.
Does this exist? How far can a Spectrum radio reach or can I make the signal stronger?

This is for a project we are working on. It'll have to go 5 km's far (and back) with a temperature of -30°C.

More info will follow.

Assuming you have the electornic know-how, one of these is your best bet as a range extender (you will need one on your end and on the mobile end to convert the signal to and from):

If RC products are rated the way I think they are rated (commercial temperatures) they may not survive -30C- that includes any ESCs and servos onboard.
