    Anyone try this Circular Polarized Antenna from RexUAV?

    Has anybody tried the "REXUAV RC 4W 2.4GHz mini-Wifi Signal Boosters"? Know how they compare to Sunhans? Seems too good to be true for 1W more at half the price...

    The Lifthor V3 mount is definitely not worth $70

    You can rig up a MavMount to sit below the controller, but it adds more leverage against your hands.

    If you are going to spend that kind of money, get a MavMount. After not being happy with a few plastics ones, I am very happy with the MavMount.

    Hex key sizes

    Did you ever find the screw thread details? I am looking to acquire longer replacement screws to attach a payload drop device.

    Serious bug in the Mavic's "Home Point Me" function - caused loss of drone!

    Your comment is self contradicting... Drones don't fly off, but your own fake made up stats would say that 10% of fly aways are not pilot error. With how many Mavics alone are out there, 10% would be a huge number of non-pilot error fly aways. Sure a lot of people screw up and don't want to...

    I think that points to DJI trying to cover up a known issue. They are certainly monitoring and sensoring their forums as no Mavic hack info can get posted, also mavic-pilots censors posts as all of our old firmware downgrade posts have been deleted. For some reason they didn't want your post...

    Home Point Me is an option only when in the Follow Me automated flight mode, it won't show up in normal mode.

    Yeah sure seems like there should be logic programmed in to prevent ever setting a home point from another day or if the location is impossible, ie would never make it with available battery time etc. This should be fairly easily fixable and I don't think you can blame the pilot. Sure there...

    Antenna Boosters

    Naa, not crazy about their proprietary mounting and connectors. I modified my controller with the standard SMA connectors which gives you more options. I have a Nano Sync and amps on order, then use a variety of paddle and stick antennas for shorter range.

    Antenna Boosters

    In my opinion these are junk. I did not see any increase in real life and they just mark up your antennas.

    DJI Goggles Case?

    I have looked at them. That case is way too large for me, the whole advantage with the Mavic is it's small size. Then while their mounting system might be decent if you go all in with them, it really limits what else you can use. I would rather have standard connectors everything uses, and no...

    DJI Goggles Case?

    I have seen them but haven't come across anybody using Titan or a comparison between theirs and any other. I was thinking of going with the nanosync, partially because the mount works well.

    FCC vs CE range.

    To update this thread, you can now load custom config files to the app which will force fcc mode amongst other things...

    Mavic FPVLR/Yagi Antenna Mod -Installation Guide and Review!

    So any consensus on the best type of antenna for long range? I am considering between the Nanosync, FPVLR Yagi type and the FPVLR circular polarized... Going to start off non-boosted, but might end up there if I don't get the performance I am after.

    DJI Goggles Case?

    What did you use for the connector sticking out of the controller? I want a setup where I have connectors on the controller where I can attach a couple small antennas, or connect to a cable with a remote larger antenna mounted on a vehicle.
