    FPV range... upgrades? options?

    I have been looking into the DJI AVL58 as my fpv system for my phantom, and almost everywhere i've looked it says the top range for the system is 1000m, but you say you've gotten 2.5 k out of it. I am just wondering if you've modified it at all, maybe changed the antennae? Otherwise it would be...

    DJI Phantom Range?

    Alright, so i've been looking around about doing FPV with a phantom, but here's what I can't can't figure out. Everywhere I look, people are saying that the max range of the phantom is 300m. If this is the case, than it would only seem logical to get a new Tx/Rx (like the futuba T8j) but that...
