How to Update Tx-Power with Magic Power v5.0

You are welcome.
Not recommended for removing the telnet because RC send tx-power and coverage setting to AC via telnet, the other feature is if you want to change channel also be done via telnet.
If you are worried, the wifi password that should be replaced.
so, this is telnet service inside the RC we are talking about.
am i correct papatita?

tnx for the reply... i mean the telnet app installed on my phone.
 
Hi Papatita, I selected 27 dBm but didn't chose anything on optional setting. It works but it showed the following results. I had made these steps twice. Is that meant I have successfully changed to 27 dBm? Anything went wrong? Thanks for your help.

same with me. . .

here is my flightlog recorded by the dji.go apps. they are separated into 9 flightlogs which are actually came from a single flight with 2times auto RTH due to lost signal. although it could reach the same distance as previous version, but i hate to say that previous test using v.5.0 is better (more solid fpv and logs) than this v.5.1.

i am gonna test it again tomorrow for sure. . .

and this is video result inside the DJI_RECORD folder. they are 4 videos for one flight.

may i know when was this 5.1 version released & uploaded? i got the 5.0 version last week (oct. 13, 2016). is that the latest file?
 
yes this is correct and successful.


Thank you PapaTita. But I am wondering why it still shows 24 dBm at 10:57 position:

Tx-Power: 24 dBm Link Quality: 70/70

sometimes, papatita just didn't read the question carefully. . . if i may to make it straight om paps, he did choose the option 27dBm but why the result is still 24dBm.

i know you might need an assistant to help you answer questions. . . .[emoji38]seem you're exhausted during late works paps. . . . [emoji12] [emoji16]

I'm sure that PapaTita done a great work but i still have a problem.

In the last 2/3 days i've done some tests trying to trace every condition but the result seems always the same: i cannot improve the distance range of video/telemetry of my P3 standard.

First of all i've found a good place to do my tests not closer than 300 meters from the nearest house and i have no strange antennas nearby. Furthermore the WiFi analyzer on my cell phone tell me that there are no others signals on 2.4GHz band.

In this place i've tested the following configurations:
  1. 5.0 mod (24dBm) and fw release 1.5.7+
  2. NO mod and fw release 1.5.7+
  3. NO mod and fw release 1.6.80
  4. 5.0 mod (24dBm) and fw release 1.6.80
In all these test i lost the video/telemetry signal at about 150/180m of distance and 70/80m hight flying both in the direction of the countryside or in the opposite direction towards the nearest houses.

The strange thing is that i can see a signal improvement using a WiFi analyzer on my cell phone when i apply the PapaTita's mod, but this improvement seems to have no practical effect in flight.

I'm a bit sad :(:(
What can i try more?
Any idea???

IWILZ, you should check the antenna connection inside the RC. regarding your description above, i belive it is FCC moded already. but the lack of proper antenna connection could cause this. i have experienced it once and had it analyzed by the flyxxx.dat, i can see that the AC intermittently lost signal in very short range under 100meters. it was happened when i tried to mod my antenna but i guess i pick the wrong frequency. . . . . and now i put back the stock antenna while waiting for 5.8ghz antenna on its way, . . .

What means sorry?
How did you analyzed the flight log please?

FCC mod : This is the whole story of this thread we are talking about. Please read first post writen by papatita on page one.
Analyze FlightLog : Download the FLYxxx.DAT file from the phantom's internal memory. Convert into CSV format using DATCON. Paste it on the flight video as HUD / dashboard info using DASHWARE, so we can read any values we want during the flight according to the video. See this after 00:55 --->
