Bought a used phantom 2 with Lightbridge, Futaba 8TJ radio, Go pro 3 Black + and gimbal.
video is excellent on the ipad mini using lightbridge app. at about 500 feet in a rural field with no obstructions Tx signal drops to 0 but video remains 85-90 percent. I have flown stock pv2+ 1600 feet in this field. Lightbridge radio function is non existent. video is rock solid!
Futaba radio is not transmitting as RF turned off at power off. go pro wifi off. so cant blame interference. nothing else on 2.4ghz
Really frustrated as can't fly out more than 1-2 mins before failsafe kicks in.
Cant work out why Radio range is so severely limited but video is rock solid and signal strong
all wiring is as set out by DJI instructions. antennas are all connected. I would have thought video would be the issue if antennas are an issue
have I got a faulty ground unit? Could a firmware update have corrupted the radio?
any ideas?
thanks again in advance.
