I use my phantom to check on our cows too! It's so convenient.

Antenna was from DBS mods
Amps from fpvlr.com
Batteries from FPVcustoms
I modded a FPVcustoms antenna mount to use the DBS flat panel
These picture only show one 2.4 amp but I am running two 2.4 amps one 5.8 amp
And two battery packs
This setup works!
I believe even though I'm running external batteries that the batteries are going to be my limiting factor. I still had full signal strength at 4 miles
My set up is pieced together from FPVcustoms, fpvlr.com and DBS
I'm using the DBS antenna on a FPVcustoms mount with a 5.8 amp and two 2.4 amps
I also have two batteries on the RC one powers two 2.4 amps and one powers the 5.8 amp
On the bird I have the FPVcustoms batteries with two 1600 batteries
There are pics of the RC posted above
I wouldn't get another batter for your RC unless you decide to run another ampSo if you were me, you'd get another blue battery, instead of using one to power both the 2.4 and 5.8?
It's out of stock here, do you know where I can get anolther? 12V DUAL LEAD BATTERY 3000MAH WITH CHARGER FREE 2-3 DAY SHIPPING
I have the FPVcustoms batteries on my drone as well!

This last run was 12.19 miles round tripYeah I think about 10-11 miles seems to be max for a round trip given battery technology. Would be nice to have a long straight road where you could just go all out for max range & have a friend following along in a car to recover the aircraft. Nice setup & great range.
I'm pretty sure you win the prize for "Best wifi in the world"This last run was 12.19 miles round trip
I think I'm just about maxed out!
about 675 in mods not counting the 2.4 amp I burned up and had to replace.I bow down to you. That is CRAZY long. LOL! Hope you have a tracker on that puppy!
Would you say about $600 in mods to your Standard? $300 antenna and & $300 battery?
Did you burn up the amp by powering it up with no antenna connected?about 675 in mods not counting the 2.4 amp I burned up and had to replace.
