For some reason, my P4 live feed video is terrible (unless I custom set it on the lowest bitrate), but the extenders make the signal very strong and the video excellent (I can leave it on auto or even force a real high bitrate). The boosters work extremely well so far and I have really not pushed them that much. The water on leaves after a rain, really scatter radio signals. My need for the extenders is not for distance, but penetration of the jungle, especially after a rain. Thanx for the info, you seem to be well informed, this one good for the P4, and what kind of extra. This thread is providing you with plenty of information so you can make an educated decision your range concern and on your purchase.
But, you can throw money at any problem or you can solve your problem efficiently. In fact, you need know and understand your system to get the most out of it. OK, so as it turns out, the easy solution for range issues is not so easy. The quality is as good as other products twice or three times the price. They are also disarticulated, so you can aim one up and the other out front. The design is extremely simple and so precise (as in tight), I have a hard time putting them on and taking them off. This is $9 for twin parabolic reflectors (separated) and $1 for shipping. Your antennae have to be perpendicular to the flight path of your DJI product (Note DJI Patrick's Video on antennae positions).įor $10, you can buy the Kinghard Radar Antenna Range Booster For DJI Phantom 3 Inspire 1 TX Signal Extender Amplifier (Amazon). I often put one antennae out straight for overhead flights and the other up straight to handle flights out front. If they are connected, your use options will be limited because you cannot separate them. Next, are you flying above you, out in front of you, or a combination of both? If you have a twin parabolic set for P3A, P3P and Inspire DJI products, you have to discover if the extenders are connected or not. The attachment ports of the extender will be different for single and double antennae sets aside from having one or two parabolic extenders. If you have a twin antennae set, they will have an extended oval cross section. If you have a single antennae, it will have a circular cross section (DJI products).
DJI PHANTOM ANTENNA BOOSTER TEST INSTALL
Parabolic extenders work if you install and use them correctly.ĭo you have one or two antennae? Obviously, buying a composite two antennae set of parabolic extenders will not work if you have only one antennae. Before you go out and break your piggy bank, try one of the most inexpensive extenders available. I think you will solve all the problems following these directions.First off, what is your DJI product? Second, the high powered extenders can blow your transmitter and void your warranty (note Heebus' comment). if the drone is flying just over your head, you must keep the antennas parallel to the ground with the Range Booster mounted backwards. the Range Booster should be mounted as soon as the signal looses part of its strenght and you note a lower level on the APP indicator unless you experience an evident signal decrease, the use of the Range Booster is not recommended in a short range, let's say with the drone distant not more than 1 - 1,5 kilometers using the Range Booster on the Phantom RC, you must be very careful to orient the antennas straight towards the drone the Range Booster has a parabolic shape that transforms the antennas from omnidirectional to unidirectional the Antennas of the Phantom RC are omnidirectional, so the signal is normally spread 360 degrees around their axis
It is very strange that you have not had a positive experience using a range booster with your Phantom.Īnyway, perhaps you need some practical advice to improve the performance of this accessory:
