Hi guys,
I have a p4 which is now causing me greif by loosing signal really easily now, which then instigates rth.
Either flying with dji go or litchi platform.
It also has a tendancy for the phone s7 to just shut down completly in flight. I have also tried it on 2 s5's with the same problem so it cant be the phone.... im guessing.
The symptoms leading up to or influencing the disconnection are i beleive as follows:-
While in dji go it will say remote control signal weak then shortly after will drop out and rth. This is happening at only 350-400m in full view. It also says the aircraft battery is 0% when this happens for some reason.
Now the things that could be influencing this behaviour could be.
A few months ago i had a crash in the backyard where i damaged (bent on slightly) the landing gear legs.
Which i replaced them with genuine parts shortly after following step by step tutorial. This didnt seem to affect the performance after it was done as i cant recall it happening to this extent when it was done.
A few weeks after the landing was done i up graded to a maxx range signal booster. This has been on for about 3 months but only flown a hanfull of times.
After installing the maxx range i haven't seen ANY increase in range.
Whether this is to do with the previous crash repair or the installation wasnt done correctly remains to be seen.
However i am confident the installation was done correctly as i followed the step by step installation which went without any complication.
Now since installation of the maxx range i have had a more frequent occurance of these problems with the system either shutting down in flight or loosing signal at a very close range. Which basically renders the product unusable.
Goes without saying that this has been extremely dissapointing and deflating experience in my fairly new entry into drone ownership.
I would greatly appreciate any input and expertise on this.
Thanks.
