    Wi-Fi extenders

    Interesting, could you provide details how to build one? I have a Chinese power meter.

    Yes, the Chinese test shows that yagi is approximately equal to reflector, however reflector seems to be a bit better in that particular test. Best gain has a custom directional antenna. I bought that one, unfortunately I bricked my RC while trying to install it. What kind of power meter do you...

    I have FCC Mavic Mini so I'm interested in 5.8 Ghz performance only.

    Did you test 2.4 or 5.8 GHz?

    What if one combines (uses both at the same time) parabolic reflector with Yagi (for 5.8). Would that improve the gain even more?

    Controller not turning on after changeing antenna,s to the sma pigtail connector type.

    According to the manual the RC should beep after pressing the power button for 4 seconds, which indicates entering the linking mode. It doesn't beep and it doesn't link to the drone which is in linking mode. Looks like I need to buy a new RC.

    Indeed the issue was the connection between the ribbon and the main board. I fixed it and all RC buttons and leds work. But when I launch DJI app it says "RC not connected to mobile device". I used DJI Assistant to refresh the newest firmware to RC but it didn't fix the problem. So DJI Assistant...

    Hi. I have the exact same issue. After installing SMA connectors the controller doesn't turn on. When I plug it into charger only the first 2 LEDs light up, even if I keep it charging. I tried to disconnect and reconnect the button ribbon cable and battery plug multiple times. When removing glue...
