I fly an M2P with a standard remote, using a bracket-mounted iPad. I have experienced occasional signal loss when the drone is not far away — usually when it's nearly directly above me and close to the 400-foot ceiling. I think this might be related to the fact the iPad obscures the antennas.
Anyhow, this has me wondering:
Anyhow, this has me wondering:
- What is the optimal antenna orientation in relation to the position of the drone?
- Does it help to have one antenna at a different angle than the other?
- Does that funky antenna-focusing doodad I got with the Fly More kit actually do anything? It seems likely to narrow the directional focus, like a satellite dish, introducing new possible losses of signal if the orientation isn't just right.
