    Connecticut Flyers: My Norwalk experience today - beware

    I took my P4 to Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk, CT. Lots of grassy park, a nice beach. It cost $25 just to park there for a day but it gets better. Soon after I lifted off from the park area behind the beach and headed over Long Island Sound for whale watching, a "lifeguard" came up to me and...

    Suggestions for a basic range extender?

    New to the forum, but glad I came across it. Love the community here! I saw another thread with several various remote control modifications that extend the range of the P3S. For someone like myself, I do not have any experience doing this kind of thing. However, I am looking to extend the...

    Wi-Fi range

    I recently purchased a second hand Phantom 3 Standard and have been disappointed with the range of the Wi-Fi (for live video and telemetry data). Even when flying on open ground with the nearest house about 300m away, I lose the signal a close as 30m away. From what I've read online, I was...

    P3S Range problem

    Hi friends, I got a problem, hope someone can help me! Bought a P3S. Functioned fine, except for the live-view range: camera view disappears when the drone is 30, 40 meters away. RC keeps working. App shows 'signal lost', camera view turns black/white and freezes. Contacted DJI about this...

    Strange Range Problem

    I'm experiencing strange behavior with my Phantom 3. I'm currently located in a gated community in Ecuador and while I'm able to do 5km range with my Phantom 3 without any problem, I'm still unable to maintain a connection while flying over the site that is 1.5km long by 700 m wide. At first I...

    Video Range Performance - next step

    P3P with the FPLVR antenna on the RC. Works considerably better than stock, somewhat better than a windsurfer. I am still not happy with my range under my usual horrid conditions of trying to punch through 150 foot spruce trees. Typically I run out of video feed before the control circuit but...

    Warranty exchange- should I keep my old transmitter (for better range)?

    I have a P3P that hit a tree during a straight-up takeoff before plummeting 100 feet into a street where it was smashed into pieces. Thankfully, bestbuy considers this a "malfunction" even though I know it was pilot error.. I didn't look up before I took off (STUPID mistake I know, AND I've been...

    Hey all, I posted about a similar situation yesterday however I have since then realized that my problem was not weather related. Whenever I seem to take my drone above 250 mtrs (Altitude) while directly above me or 700 Mtrs (distance) while still maintaining line of sight I lose signal and...

    Phantom 4 Questions

    Hey guys, Sorry if this has already been answered ( I did look for a while and couldn't find it). I bought a Phantom 4 yesterday and so far I'm really happy with it.. I just have a few questions, does it use lightbridge technology like some of the P3 range? Or does it use the more basic wifi...

    Antenna mod question

    Hey folks, I recently modded my Phantom 3's RC to attach 3rd party antennas to it and now I am a little concerned. Yesterday I removed the antennas to see if reattaching the antennas would increase the transmission quality, just to make sure everything was set up correctly (and it was) and...

    Hello, I finally let curiosity get the best of me and ordered a Itelite DBS antenna mod. I've watched several videos on installation, and it doesn't look to difficult. But this is where i'm gonna leave it to the pros of the forum. Are there any tricks that will make this installation easier. I...

    EU/FCC: Is there some hack to get the EU version to transmit with FCC power?

    Hi! I live in Norway, and thus have the EU-standard power level, and I am pretty sad about the limited range I have on my drone. With the "ARGtek range extender" (ebay it), I get just about 500 meters (this is an inhabited area, so there are probably quite a bit of interference - haven't tried...
