Dji phantom antenna booster test1/3/2024 ![]() ![]() ![]() I stand next to the setup of course, but I got no cutouts at all and my neighbor was spotting with his binoculars. I have to do a bit more testing, but the range is way far. I have not gotten this kind of range with any of my previous setups. I am also using a 14 db panel antenna on a tripod. I have been experimenting with my AMped repeater with a 5w wifi booster attached. But there is a mount that is meant for the dji light bridge that will hold the repeater right on the controller so that you can keep it pointed in the right direction by just keeping your transmitter pointed in the the general direction the bird is flying. Which can be hard if the repeater is on a tri pod or siting on some thing. BUT you have to keep the face of the antenna pointed almost directly right at the phantom the whole time. That can get you out to about 800m if you have it on the receiving antenna side of the repeater. There are some really inexpensive flat panel 11dbi directional patch antennas. Tho if some ones flying in a big open area say a big field or some thing like that is to put the repeater a 100-300 yards away from were they are going to be flying from and that will let you fly that much farther away from were you are.īut as far as the best range antenna you can use on a repeater. Being the kindles range with a repeater would only let you get farther from the repeater and still pick it up on the kindle from the repeater. Lets hope that the 5P minds that gap and makes the jump up to HEVC or H.265 video compression.Even an old non hd kindle fire will give increased range. Side by side comparison of the specs suggest that the PH3P and PH4 have essentially the camera and use the same compression. :-(įHD: 1920×1080 24 / 25 / 30 / 48 / 50 / 60 / 120p (if you are in need of a little slowmo action)įurther reading about video compression –įOV 94° 20 mm (35 mm format equivalent) f/2.8, focus at ∞ Great service and good drone deals going on at Phantom 4 specs, or where the rubber meets the road –ĤK compression and FPS UHD: 4096×2160 (4K) 24 / 25p No love on the 30fps for U.S.A. Maybe a white van, man? And no, I don’t think I look like Mike. ![]() Don’t get me wrong, I like the whole cases concept a lot, but if I get a few more case I’ll need to ditch the Prius and get a van. Storage for multiple cases on the other hand is an issues and still needs to be worked out, as likes to remind me. The case concept besides being well organized also helps to protect against hanger rash and lost items. ![]() The days of did I get this, forget that, and dropping bits and bobs on the way out the door are over. The kit and case are well appointed, the case custom cut outs and compartments are like a shadow board for all of the included drone accouterments, it is nice not to have to second-guess yourself all the way to the flying field. Until just recently the booster antenna was only sold as part of the Executive Kit, but is now available for aftermarket purchase if you have already have your PH4. Trees, shrubs, and WiFi saturation will cut down on range but reception is still much more robust than the stock configuration. buildings and or geographical obstacles come between you and the drone, you will experience C2 (Command and Control for the rubes) and video signal loss. Booster antenna reality check, while the Drone World proprietary antenna works well it is not magical! If you are operating inside a Faraday cage or out of radio Line Of Sight (LOS) e.g. ![]()
