I own a p4 and im about to upgrade my range i know im getting sundans boosters.. i dont know which ones..i had a p3 and i saw where they ran 5.8 and 2.4 ..5.8 for controlling the drone and 2.4 for video .. do i need to do the same thing with the p4 or do i run two 2.4 .. because of lightbridge..? Can i run a 5.8? I live in congested area that's the main reason why I'm trying to make my signal stronger.. o and im looking for a good quality battery also if someone can give me some ideas.. the antenna will be dbs maxx Or aTerminator... i might go with the regular dbs that's still in the air as well some input on that would help my decision

Thanks

Is this your first multi-rotor or first r/c aircraft?

Ok. Otherwise my advice would be batteries and props before range mods.

Spares!!!
My advice, as well as MANY here, is use only DJI parts for your Phantom.
It is a closed-loop system designed to work best with OEM parts. Especially the propulsion system.

+1.

We must have a mix-up here GC.
There is no need to change or swap motors or props.
Keep it 'stock'.
