I put one on mine and it seemed to help although I can't actually put a number on it. The brand was Sunnylife, and I found it on ebay for $5 delivered.

You don't have to use two boosters. The receiver with the stronger signal would be the one used. Two would be better, but not necessary.

I recently asked about how the two antennas work. It was explained to me that the rc uses diversity reception. It has two separate receivers, and switches back and forth between them, checking for the best signal.

This is what I've been using for my P3S. The 9.6" version. All I can tell you is it's worked for me for this application. It hasn't given me any problems. Flying the drone is all I use it for and it's the only tablet I've owned so can't help with the comparison. The reasons I picked it were the...

OK. Thinking back to when this happened, it's happened twice, I brought the drone back in, switched batteries, and took off again. That's when I noticed the change in the display. Both times on the second flight. It worked, it was just a change that I didn't understand. Thanks for the help.

I tried a filter a couple of times, and both times I had trouble with the gimbal shaking. That ever happen to you?

I just throw down a piece of cardboard for a landing pad. I hadn't really thought about getting sand in the motors, I've been worried about a piece of gravel getting blown up by the propwash and hitting the camera lens.

When flying the P3S with the DJI Go app, on the top of the screen, just right of center, are two indicators for signal strength. The controller signal, and just to the right of that the wi-fi/video signal. On the latter indicator sometimes mine shows up as four arches, sometimes it shows up as a...

Yeah, the increase on the 5.8 ghz side was a bit of a disappointment, on the 2.4 ghz side it was much better. I use the panels on the 2.4 connectors and the 10db Omni on the controller side. One of the reasons I chose the Argtek was that it gives me an easy connection point for any additional...

Hi guys. I was able to get 10k feet out of my P3S with just one of the parabolic reflectors. In a rural area and over a lake, straight line of sight. I still had full bars on the controller signal, but the video feed was weak and breaking up. I put the Argtek mod on and while I only got small...

Very nice. The people on the trail show the scale. We have a pretty cool planet.

It's not just a wire, it's coaxial cable.

I would think splicing those cables would be difficult at best. I've installed the Argtek antennas on my own controller and it was an easy install. Just watch a few of the youtube videos first and it should be a piece of cake.

Good point. I'm sure they're not going to lose money in the long run.

I'm sure glad you posted this. I checked with my agent(we use State Farm for everything). The $60.00 is the minimum for a personal articles rider. My P3S is only $9 a year. $500. I can add another $7000 worth of guns, cameras, jewelry, or whatever and it comes up to $62 a year. That's sure going...
