Argtek Mod and range VERY limited.

I have the DJI go app AND Litchi app. Both are equally as bad regarding video reception.

hmm then i stomped you may need to ask DJI them selfs

The two outside ones were pointing down and towards the craft and the middle one pointing up towards the craft.

I'm curious on this statement here. Did you aim it like this diagram below?

Have you flown elsewhere? There could be interference that you are now aware of at the location you have tried.

Carl alot of people r having range issues w/ 1.6.8 dji is currently working on the fix. If your comfortable w/ it downgrading to factory version

P3S firmware downgrade HERE!

 

[Fife-Flying]

Okay so your signals there looked okay and no flags. But your not that high ?

I took the bird over to a nice large open air park with very little in the way of obstacles or wifi interference

How did you analyze the amount of local 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz traffic in order to determine that there is "very little" interference?

Thanks for the reply.

Im more than happy to downgrade, but what are the cons of doing so? what were the PROS in the upgrade.

TBH, i kinda guessed. I was in a park with massive open space. Not really near any houses or power lines. The only obstacles would have been trees. But where I set the bird off was a single straight direct flight through a clearing into open space.

Argh!!!!! it gets worse LOL.

I'm assuming because this is the first install of DJI Go. I havent upgraded from a previous version.

 

[Ohiowoodsman]

Carl your signal score 100 out of 100 was that w/ argtec?

No cons to downgrade cause u can always go back to current

Inside the DJI Go app, there is a spot where you can choose a specific channel or let the drone select one automatically. We usually leave it on Automatic - but there is a bar-graph on that page which shows activity on the various channels. If there is a lot of interference around, you'll see a lot of red on those bar graphs. Try taking a look at this the next time you're in that location.
