ok so i did the wifi extender mod a few weeks back and for the life of me im only getting 1300ft range
here is what i have done
ive tried 2 9dbi omni antennas
ive changed the internal antenna lead 3 times
ive changed the internal connection i put the lead onto 2 times
ive put the extender back to normal internal antennas and got 1100ft range so i did not damage and internals when doing the mod.
i have a brand new tp link 8dbi omni antenna which i tried not 30 mins ago and still only 1300ft range before the camera connection broke
each test was done with a fully charged extender
im using a lg-g2 smart phone to connect to the drone and view the camera
i always fly 100ft in the air with a direct line of sight between me and the drone, always flying above trees never around them
took some pics of what i have done
i screw in the antenna till its tight and cant screw in anymore.
any advice would be welcome as i have ran out of ideas
