    Range and altitude limits

    I have two PS3s and have had the altitude and range problem with both. I use the same iPhone with both. When I contacted DJI support, they suggested that I log in and log out of DJI Go. They also suggested I calibrate the compass and IMU. Instead of just logging in and logging out, I...

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    Yes, I must not have been careful enough. I contacted ARGteck and asked for a price for just the three wires. They answered with $25 for shipping. No thanks. I just got the DBS in and will try a gentler hand when installing that!

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    I figured the DBS would be similar. The connectors just aren't very durable, but I guess DJI didn't engineer them for multiple connections/disconnections. Yes, apparently a soft touch is needed!

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    Thanks for the explanation of the antennae. The range may have been the connections. I removed the glue that I had placed and unseated all the connections. The middle circular connector (female side on the board) was bent. In my attempts to get a solid connection, I bent the connector more and...

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    Ah, you lost me. Do you mean a continuity check? Sorry, not great with electricity.

    Thanks. What kind of voltage should I hope for with the Ohm meter? I'm assuming each antennae is the positive lead?

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    I forgot to mention that I bought the Argtek on Amazon. It was sold by BlueProton and fulfilled by Amazon.

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    It could be the connections. When removing the stock antenna, one of the round connectors on the board bent so it wasn't a perfect circle. I carefully moved it back into position. I never felt a good "click" on any of the three connections. I did glue them down. See image. Yes, I'm using the two...

    ARGTek Range Extender Issues

    I just purchased the ARGtek and installed it. I was disappointed with the range. No better than my standard antenna. And, I continually lost the video feed.

    Neary Aerial still in drone insurance business?

    I was considering Neary for my insurance. I sent them two emails (to two different email addresses) over the last few days. Nothing. Not very "insuring."

    HOW TO: Install tablet mount on a Phantom 3 Standard remote controller

    Great tutorial. Thanks for doing this. I placed my Inspire mount on my P3 standard remote and it looks good. I used a step drill bit to drill the hole and it worked well. One caution is to be careful when separating the halves of the remote. The antenna collar can be tough. I accidentally...
