Am I ok to beta test this with the antenna upgrades to my range extender as well? Will the antenna upgrade have any effect on heat issues?

What panel antenna? Can you tell us more?
Do you have to aim it very well or is it like stock just more range?
How hard was installation?


this panel or patch antenna..some call it panel or patch. http://www.amazon.com/Docooler-Antenna- ... el+antenna

aim needs to be pretty accurate once you get out a good bit..say half a mile or so. installation was easy.

Have you noticed any effect on the flight duration with this or faster drainage of the wifi extender battery ?

actually, the app boosts the aircraft video transmit power not the extender. but no, I haven't noticed drain on either end.

sidenote: phatompilots need to get rid of this 3 quotes limit..its annoying. :(

I believe the manual and in the forums they refer to the separate device attached to the RC transmitter as the 'WIFI Range Extender'. The 'WIFI Range Extender' is what communicates the FPV between the Phantom and the smartphone or video device. I believe he was asking if the 'extender' or WIFI range extender's battery has much additional drain... I would expect the battery would be taxed a little more since the wifi gain is increased...

Wouldn't it be better to test all stock? Isn't that the point of this thread ??
There's plenty of antennas to buy if u want to start modding it.

True... that would probably serve more people's interest since most don't have modded antennas... I'll be sure to do some tests before I mod the antennas...

How did you install it. Looks bigger then the repeater itself lol. Where do you attach it and can you aim/ tilt it?
Would love to see some photo's.

This is the 14dBi panel installed on the 5.8G transmitter.

This 5.8G 14dBi patch panel should get 4 KM (13,000 ft) control link WITHOUT requiring to mod the aircraft.

You may refer to my picture of it's orientation installed on the transmitter, which is vertical polarized matching with the 5.8G antennas on the aircraft. If you rotate the panel 90-degree, it becomes horizontal polarized and your control range would be a lot shorter due to mismatching polarization.
