range

Im looking to extend my range for my Phantom 3 Advanced. I know this topic is posted almost every day but Im hoping some of the more experienced pilots and enthusiasts can assist me in a decision. Im a college student without much money so I am trying to get as much bang for buck as possible...

I've decided I'd like to buy a drone for recreational use and I had decided on the DJI Phantom 3 Standard. Then I noticed that the SE had been introduced with an extended range of approx 4km and 4k video - so I wanted that one. I'm a beginner but I want the best, most feature-packed drone...

I have a phantom 2 with the ImmersionRC transmitter for FPV received by a Lilliput 7" monitor with dual receivers with circular polarized antennae all round. I seem to have a really short range for FPV, I can't give a distance to you as the screen is scrambled and I can't see the readout from...

I am selling a GL300A controller that is unmodified and has older firmware on it. These were the controllers with higher power output and the better Davinci video processing board that uses less of your phones resources. That is the main reason for glitching, crashes, etc. I have used this with...

I have a Phantom 4. Wonderful device. I'm trying to learn about the signals to and from each antenna. I've heard that one is for video and one is to control the drone. I've also heard that one transmits while one receives. Which one is true? Also, the manual says the remote controller operates...

Hey guys, I've been looking for days and haven't found anything definitive on this, but I apologize in advance if I'm reposting. I'm trying to increase my range on my ps3 standard as dramatically as possible and what I've been reading is that some people use 2.4ghz & 5.8ghz amps. What should I...

Does the windsurfer range extenders from amazon (skyreats)makes also the livefeed from my iPad mini 2 more stable? Sometimes my livefeed is freezing for 3 secs and it will be back to normal and when it freezes(im doing for about 1000ft distance and 350ft altitude and then im panicking lol. And...

Hello all I bought a lightbridge for my naza drone a couple of months ago. Because of poor range, I installed two hobbyking 2W amps on ground unit : things got worse, video got pixellated even at close range. The best configuration I found is to have one amp on air unit : gives about 1.5 kms...

Hi, Is there anything other than a windsurfer to extend my range without opening the controller or voiding the warranty. I already have the skytreat windsurfer but is there something better i could use? I am using the p3s and get about 2300 feet of range

I've had my P3S for a few months now and right out of the box I updated the firmware. It's advertised to be able to fly about 3000 ft away. I have tried in multiple areas to achieve such a distance but the farthest I've made is about 900 feet before it returns home. I built a windsurfer antenna...

In June I will be going to Montego Bay for Vacation. I am looking for any tips and tricks or advise. I will be flying out over water and was wondering about range, is is further than on land normally. I would like to shadow a cruise ship if anyone has done that I need ideas on setting for the...

I have a huge tree branch in the path of flight so dont make fun of my terrible range. Today the weather was good but i only had 15 satellites and as I was flying with no range extender I kept getting a low signal warning at 3000 feet and with the parabolic range extender i hit 4000 feet. A few...

Range test Phantom 4 PRO, in Sardinia (Italy). 3700m 2.4Ghz.

. ...Most Antenna's on the market have poor Return Loss & VSWR specs and the Tuning varies Wildly, thats why you may find or read about 1 set of antenna working reasonable while the performance of another set by the same mfg is abysmal.. I recently purchased a batch of antennas that while within...

Hey All!! I flew my new DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. I had issues with the range and was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it. I could only get 3,000 feet max away before I lost video and signal. The conditions I flew in was perfect and there was no interference. I was flying over the ocean so no...

About three weeks ago i started getting wierd signal lost problems. I have flown 60 kilometers so i know what range it used to have, and now it has dropped from 500 meters to about 130 meters. i have gone trough the forums and tried: changeing the angle of the rc, relinking rc, calibrating rc...

Hi All, I'm new to the site and figured you guys would be the best people to ask about range restrictions and what can be done to get more from my P3 4K as I only seem to get around 200m range. I've seen various pros and cons on ARGtek but not sure I'll be confident tampering with the...

Further testing of this set up with Sunhaus 3 watt. amps with external antennas.

So I have a P4P and have found that by the time I am even nearing the end of line of sight, I get so much interference I lose connection or it just breaks up. Also, longer range would be pretty cool in any scenario. I have seen a lot of threads on here about antenna mods for the P4, not so much...

My Phantom 4 Professional (with Display) arrived today. I have owned a P3 Advanced and still own a Phantom 4 and Yuneec Typhoon H Pro. I have a Parrot Disco coming my way tomorrow for giggles only. After unboxing and charging all batteries and controller, I updated all software/firmware on...
