ProCharged97 built a kickass 21 Db million turn supercannon after consulting w/ alex from IB crazy on a cold call. He's did enough tests to confirm it works, I'll be receiving one soon to see how far it works[emoji41]

Db what is you top speed for your P2V+. I took mine out. I knew the wind was blowing a little. I checked my data 56mph. I got out to the first mile in 80 seconds.

63 mph with the vision plus! It's funny one day I decided I was going to take it up it's like 20 mile an hour winds probably more after you got 200 feet high.
I was going to try to break my new personal record for speed fly out about a mile and then zoom on back in atti! Once I got up 150 feet high it couldn't hold GPS position the wind was actually pushing it backwards if I would let off the sticks. When I tried to go forward I got a top speed of 5 to 6 mph. I aborted the mission
I did not think it was blowing that hard. I tried the etilite antenna still not getting anything good I think I got out to 1500 ft and lost both sides.
I witched over to the cisco 2.4 and a cheapo panel for the 5.8 and that is where I got out to a mile and turned around. 80 seconds out and 7 minutes getting back.
Here is the video
The barn is right around 1 mile away from where we fly at. I seen that coming up and I new it was time to turn around. On the way back I lost the signal about 1800 ft away from me.

ok did a mod to one of my controller for my P2V+
I chanced out the 5.8ghz antenna and added a plug to be able to add any external antenna I want. I did not have a clean install kit to cover the hole left from the old stock antenna. So I made my own. I think it adds character

When I get the new antenna's I'll take some pictures from the out side and in side and post them. I think I may do a mod on them for the location of the cable and type of cable.
Did a few mod's to my P2v+ today. I replaced the DJI Puck's (as everyone calls them) on the wifi side of the drone. removed them and added an adopter to put on an external antenna. I had a pair of d-link 2.4ghz ( I think 6db) antenna.
Here is my setup for the controller

Great! Nice to take those bird side antennas outside!
What is that, an Argtek? And you have a windsurfer behind that? I actually thought about that but decided it wouldn't work. But like DB says, try anything!
That's a nice stand you got there... keep us posted...
