Thanx guys for summarizing! I am using firmware 1.8.6 at the moment. Does someone has experience with this firmware?

Andi Hak, I understand you mean 1.6.8... if so, I was on 1.6.8 this morning before the mod I got 94m alt and 190 distance, and after the mod, in the exact same place but 30 min later, I got more or less the same, so now i'm rolling back to 1.5.7 and will do the mod again but at 24dbi.
 
Hi ferjilo, absolutely correct! Typing error. I meant 1.6.8. Seems like the mod is not working with 1.6.8?

Andi, from my experience it didn't affect on 1.6.8.

I just tried the mod on 1.5.7 (with 24db) and it improved significantly: reached a bit more than 500mts distance with almost 300m height. Still far from what I figured as US reach but quite better. Any tip on how to reach max distance? What is a distance/height good ratio?
 
Thanx for your experience. Is there a reason why the mod is not working on 1.6.8 and dji goo? At the moment I could reach distances about 400-500m in 80m height in CE area with very low wifi pollution.

Don't think there's any magic ratio, but higher is always better for two reasons. First you're getting farther away from possible interference from the ground, and next as you get farther away from the home point the less likely anything could block the LOS between the RC and the AC.

Thanks all and thanks to @PapaTita
I'm not sure but seems that MagicPower works fine with specific versions of Phantom firmware.
Using my DJI GO app, under General settings/About, i see "version 1.6.80".
Is this version good for using MagicPower?
Thanks!

1.5.7 is the best.
