    Shell Cracked While Sitting In Car

    Super glue will not work. I had a similar crack develop for no reason. I Used plast-aid by filling the quads arms. Now the arms are rock solid and no worries about cracks or motors falling off

    Maxx VS Terminator. Long distance antenna shootout!

    I mounted my 2.4 GHz 14 dBi Flat Panel Range Extender Antenna's on a tripod with 4' cables. I read that the antenna's need to be spaced apart, so these are about 6". Raining here so cannot test against the panels side by side.

    Phantom 3pro lost motor mid flight.....total loss

    new style shell with a crack, never crashed and always checked for cracks after each flight. Once this one showed up, I did the plast-aid fill of the arms. The arms are rock solid now with zero flex.

    I have been testing these 2.4 GHz 14 dBi Flat Panel Range Extender Antennas, unboosted it beats my fpvlr v2 boosted setup. If you have noodle arms dont try this at home.
