Hello all,
Call me lazy for not searching this answer out on the forums, because I'm sure this topic has been discussed. I will be embarking on a flight to Hawaii at the end of the week and would love to take the drone to take some shots of the big island. I am writing today regarding the...
I love my dbs mod. I notice a big time range increase. As far as fpv. I think that had more to do with the device your using

Use black tape. Less glare. I have found that the store bought ones don't work as well as my homemade one

My advice would be to become familiar with the quad copter. Fly it in beginner mode until your confident. You won't have range issues on beginner mode. Next try to go to an area with minimal or no wifi interference, and do a distance test. Then do the same thing in your neighborhood or...
No however it was the best place I've found yet for distance. It is on top of a wide open hill with nothing but fields in all directions. Keep in mind I do not have the Argtek. I have a dbs

I made it out over 15,000 feet yesterday with my dbs. Was only able to get out 4,000 feet with the stock antenna.

Not sure about the Argtek. I saw it and choose to go with the dbs instead. I've seen a lot of reviews with people saying that the Argtek only gave them 200-300 feet more in additional range. As far as my dbs, it had at least doubled the range everywhere I fly. Super happy with the purchase...
Just installed a dbs last night. I am running the current firmware. No problems. Massive distance improvement in high interference areas now!

I completed the mod last night. With just enough daylight to take it out and let it rip. I love it!!!! I wasn't in a great location for distance flight. However it more than doubled my previous record from that very spot. Fpv was so smooth. This is a great buy!!! The install went super smooth...
Just broke my distance record today with my standard. 6,238 feet. Located on a hill. Coincidentally, my dbs mod comes tomorrow.

I wouldn't go out in over 22 mph. Remember the wind is faster with higher elevation. In my experience it can handle 20-22. But if the gps fails as stated earlier in the post. You have to be comfortable in Atti mode or its gonna go buh bye. Take offs and landings can be a bit unpredictable with...
Thanks for all of the advice. I'm pretty confident this mod will go easy. I was confused as to what connectors went to what ports. However I'm good on that now! (I've heard but cannot confirm that these instructions are not included with the mod) Thanks for posting pictures!! Any more...
