I find the DJI stock props very reliable never broken one and I have been flying my battery modded P3 for years..so you should be good with those two 2200mah batteries.
Looks like you have a pretty nice lipo charger in the picture!!! My "new tech is not a charger that can bring my batteries up to 4.46 though. I wish you the best of luck though Chazz. Looking forward to your results.Do Not Try This at Home
My “New Tech” arrived today. I was wrong with Unknown charging his batteries to 4.5V per cell. The ESC beeps and you get an error with that much voltage. It errored until I took it down to 4.46V per cell then it fired up no problem. View attachment 100425 View attachment 100426
Hi guys,
I finally finished my radio mod.
I did some testing in a residential area. In some situations the video signal(rx) is weak but the radio signal(Tx) is very strong. Is this normal?
How to increase the strength of the radio receiver?
Booster works with the 32 channel mod app ?
my setup:
2x sunhans 2.5W + 7db argtek patch antennas
What is the maximun distance that you get in urban area?
Do you starts lose video signal at which distance?
4100 metros com 90m de altitude...fiquei com dois pontos de sinal de video(cor vermelha) , mas não perdi o sinal..O sinal de radio permaneceu 100% , sem nenhuma perda...mas não voei sobre a cidade ou casas...Fiz o voo margeando uma estrada , porém com bairros dos dois lados da pista.
Muito boa essa marca de mais de 4km!
Eu estou com 2 Sunhans 3W + 2 Painéis Alfa 7dbi no meu Phantom 3 Advanced e mal consigo 1,5km (aliás, isso eu conseguia com as antenas originais)
A montagem física está bem parecida com a sua.
Estou um pouco decepcionado.

Os dois cabos de RF internos ao controle você comprou aonde?

@dirtybum what do you think about Unknowns record run? Those Florida flyers must have figured out a way to harness electricity from the air?![]()
Nah, its not electric, they've been working w/ a gas powered drone and have adapted the p3 (and maybe p4) fight controller to it.
I dont know if its really true buuuuut.
You didnt hear it from me though[emoji41]
I think dirtybum was joking. In all seriousness, I'm from Ohio and traveled to the mythical spot myself back in April. I flew with unknowncaller and can tell ya the spot itself lends itself for long range flying. Next year I'll be returning with much more mAh capacity.Isn't that cheating..... using gas instead of the original electricity
