So after seeing people post about getting 10k-15k+ on their factory P4P and I was only ever able to manage about 8k on the best day in a desert. I figured I'd try a range extender. Did some research, came across a few threads from uhhh some "non-compensated people" so I figured i'd try out the Titan Conquer Range Extender and see what could happen. I do a lot of live streaming when I fly and people always want to see how far away I can get so what the heck right?
So I order the product, and it gets here pretty quick. As a matter of fact, I don't think you could ask for much better shipping service. 5/5
It rained for 4 days straight and I didn't have time to fly or install the controller modification 0/5 to mother nature.
I finally got time today 5/8/2017 to install the controller modifications and watching their YouTube install video it went pretty much how the video showed. Though rerouting the wires was tricky due to the increased girth/stiffness of the wires it was still doable. End result was professional looking and it worked. 5/5
Mounted the quick disconnect panel following instructions. Super simple, and that magnet is actually pretty impressive. 5/5
But after the magnet is done impressing, there really wasn't much to be impressed about from there on out. I took it out to the local airfield that is set aside for RC planes and drones where I consistently was able to get 4-5k range before loosing signal and got....yep 4-5k before loosing signal.
I then went to my neighborhood where I usually only get 3500 or so feet away and I managed to get a whopping 4k feet away this time.
I know a lot of factors go in to your distances and blah blah, but so far I haven't seen any discernible increases to my range. I don't want to base my entire review from these two flights so I've set aside some more flight time for later this week to get out there in my usual flying spots and see what happens. As it stands right now I dont think I could/would recommend this product to anyone.
