so I have tried the 8dbi tp link linear polarized antenna on the extender, a radiolabs wifi booster on the p2v, multiple rubber duck antennas on the p2v and now an fpvlr pinwheel on the p2v and LHCP 8dbi l-com patch antenna on the extender. Even changed out the pigtails thinking I may have damaged them or the small diameter cable was giving too high of losses.
......still no luck. I am lucky to get 600 ft at 200ft altitude. Strangely it seems fairly consistent despite all the antenna combos I have tried. The best I have had is about 900 feet. How is this possible? I am befuddled when I hear all these stories of 1km, 2km, 3000 feet. I just don't get it. Did I just get a dud? I need to try flying in more area. Only flown in about 4 areas so far. All have high wifi traffic but I cant imagine it would drop my range so significantly...especially from the reports im hearing from others also flying in busy wifi areas with good results.....
could I just have a bad camera tx or extender? or am I missing something?
