Hello guys need some help . I installed the argtek mod last night , and im not getting great results . I can reach 1100 ft with the 3 omnis , about 1300 with 1 omni and two flat panels ,and about 1800 feet with 3 flat panels . With stock i can get about 1000 ft and about 1600 with parabolic . All of these flights were done in the same location same direction . Ive taken the remote apart 3 times and made sure 100% sure all wires are in the correct places ,and all are correctly snapped on in place . Just curious if you have any hints or clues . Ive read some of the other post about firmware . Im not sure what firmware my controller is on or how to tell or how to downgrade it either . Any help would be much appreciated thanks . Also read about the magic mod ? thoughts on that ? would it help ? thanks
 
There's already a ton of threads on here about these NOT performing. I myself am one of them. They are a 50/50 crap shoot. You'll never see a thread like this about the DBS mod / ITELITE set up. Best thing I can say is hopefully you are within 30 days and you can return it, like I had to. If not... you could salvage it by ditching the antennas it came with and installing these instead. They will screw right on.

Now I'm really not trying to brag or anything but am I seeing unusually long distances with my P3S or is it just the area I live in? I just went 11685 ft with nothing more than a homemade windsurfer. I actually got stable video over a longer distance after removing the Magic Power Mod (reverting back to stock). I'm not complaining just wondering why so many are getting so much less distance than I am.
 
i wish i knew man , i would just like to get a solid 3000 ft . thats all i want . but i cant get it .
 
whats really weird is the lower i fly with this thing the better i do . like if i go 300 ft high at 200 ft distance i loose all rc signal . no matter what antenna i have on there . im losing rc signal first . video is fine
 
i live in southeast tn . mostly a rural area is where i fly we have alot of rolling hills and valleys . no flat land at all . No unpopulated areas neither really .
 
thats crazy dude , ive never been able to acheive 10% of that ive tried the wind surfer , no luck .
Here is the link to page that has the one I made. About 1/3 down there is a link to the PDF template. I just printed it on some card stock. I did cut off about 3/4" off the bottom so it would fit correctly. Been working great. Anyway here is the link How to build your own Windsurfer Antenna
 
yeah ive built the same one . have it in my case . it doesnt work well for me loses signal around 1100 ft .
