    Antenna mod/amp help

    Thanks I totally agree and am looking at reinstall kit now. Only thing I can think of is polarity problem. All the kits should take The controller and put it to SMA not RP-SMa correct ? Could it be that I need rp sma adapter before antenna ?

    Home Roof Antenna Install

    Not if you want to scope out the local farmers market from your back porch to see if your favorite vendors are there ! This is what I’m aiming to do. I enjoy flying from home and looking around , I also enjoy being mobile, this mod will allow for both.

    Home Roof Antenna Install

    Hello all, I have a Mavic Pro 1 and am looking to extend the flights from my home backyard. I have read all there is on the forums about antenna modification on aircraft and controller side. I have a decent understanding of radio frequency waves and antenna concepts. So my goal would be able to...
