Ok, I have a myth that needs to be proven or busted. Here is the challenge;
Is the video output to the HDMI port straight from the RC different then the video after it goes through the iPad and App?
I posted this in an antenna thread but was encouraged to start a new thread.
Something strange happened yesterday I wanted to share. I did the mod on my controller and was testing some cheap 8 dbi omni antennas. I was flying FPV with fatsharks with a few onlookers watching the iPad. Out about 4,000 feet they said "what happened?" I didn't know but the said the iPad went black as if lost signal. I still had a clear picture in the goggles out to 6,000 feet. The picture started dropping so I stopped and removed my goggles to look at the iPad. It was blank and didn't start receiving a picture till I was back inside 4,000 feet. I was able to control and fly the P4 with the controller and goggles and a blank iPad.
I thought this was strange that the HDMI output was better then the iPad.
I feel very confident that I don't have a problem with the board or the install of the antenna mod.I reopened the controller to double check everything. I will do some more testing this weekend and I will also test it on Litchi ... I was wondering if anyone else experienced anything similar?
