Does anyone have the 2.4.3 APK file available to share/download?

Thanks for the offer, but Judy has been very helpful over the past few days, so hopefully everything is sorted now

Many thanks, had some productive e-mails over the last few days

I ordered a DBS Mods antenna kit back in October. Received the tracking number etc. for USPS and still have not received it. The tracking number was showing the parcel moving between various facilities but no is not found. Tried to contact DBS through their web portal and via e-mail but to...

Understand that, was just showing that more than 1000ft is usual

Had my unmodded Standard out to 612m - just over 2000ft (CE area) before losing the live signal. Still had control but no feed. Even the specs state 500m in CE areas

looked at the mods, but being in a CE area possibly might not have been as successful as FCC areas (limited to 500m wifi, though I did have over 600m on it). The other reason was not voiding the warranty. Fitting the mod would have done so. At least this way the warranty is intact. I know my...

Been pretty happy with the Standard but frustrated by the range so bought a P3A. Just received it and the battery and controller are now on charge. Anything specific I should be aware of? Will be using it with a Note 3 on android. TIA

Well done. There is hope after all

Worth noting, if you are covered by CE (which in Dubai we are too), you won't get the stated 1km range for live feed etc. Only where FCC applies. CE is limited to 500m wifi connection, and this is governed by the GPS knowing which country you are in, there is nothing you can select or flick a...

That's concerning. I currently get around 600m on the Standard before video drops and I lose the RC connection. To not get that after modding would be a massive disappointment. Still waiting for my kit to arrive so will know then

Ridiculous that there are no firm regulations in place in Dubai regarding hobby drones but suffer from a reduced wifi based on being under CE instead of FCC

Thanks for the welcome dirk. It will be frustrating if the video drops way before the RC connection breaks. I suppose I could consider an amp for the WiFi which may overcome CE restrictions

Following this thread with interest. Just ordered the DBS P3 Standard solution and now waiting for it to arrive. My question will be the same as one raised earlier on the wifi range even with this kit fitted in CE areas. I am in the UAE which falls under CE. The best I have managed before...
