I also had this and finally gave up on the tracking side, it works maybe 40/50 metres away and that's it, although you can fly with the uploaded plan.

The two thing I did find where, the GS ( station end) needed to be powered via both the usb ports from something with a lot of power I used a car jump start kit

the Ariels at the air end one needed to be at 90 degrees to each other

Does USB selective setting really work? The Phantom 2 along with all the accessories are send to the company that sold us the device. I would laugh my *** off if this was indeed the issue . Can someone confirm that it works? Thank you!

I had no luck playing with USB settings

a shame. So in conclusion DJI does not have a single clue of what is causing this. They are sending the unit back from the company were we bought it in the first place. A shame! This should no longer be sold. From my understanding they are not selling it anymore with the 3rd generation of Phantom.

did anyone try with Bluetooth on IPAD? Is it any good the ground station software ? Does it have the ability to create photogrammetry way points?

Hello you can add a high gain antenna with a 2 or 4 watt amplifier. Make sure
That the Bluetooth and iPad are close
