Maybe i missed it, but what was max distants before & after installing WIFI cards?
I got 100+% in cress by doing radio patch By @Ian [P13]
Thanks
before host file = 500ft
after host file = 700ft
wifi card = 1 miles
wifi card alpha antenna = 1.6 miles
all of this was tested in an urban wifi congested area with power lines and lots of interference.

also , i only went out 1 mile and still had great signal but didnt want to go out further
i know for sure that in a plain field i get better results

Like @3zr01 said, we need to see how WiFi congested area's work with our setups. I'm completely stock, except for host file & at beach today I got 2800 over water. I'm sure I will get less at home.

most likely going to do the cards at some point, did the config mod. In a very congested area I got 123 meters out and 45 meters high before I lost signal

What cards did you use?
 
Hey all, I'm curious after doing the WiFi card update to the Solo and the Controller.... when there is a system update do you just do it with your new mods? Or do you swap everything back to stock to avoid bricking the Solo? Thanks!

No way to know that for sure, but so far the new cards use the same drivers as the old, so there is no need to change anything out....
 
Thanks Earl, is it a similar situation with the GPS mod?
That one may be a little different. I haven't done that and so I am not sure. Since that is easier to get at and (after the mod) is just a connector, I would probably swap that back on updates, but that is just me. If you search here or on the Solo Mod Club FB group, there are several that have done it, and can advise better on that.

Makes sense, thanks for your help Earl!
 


Thank You! I know they are hard to find right now as everyone is either on back order or out of stock with no information on restocking? There are some on eBay or out of Germany but not sure of the source! I think Microtik has the newest card R11e-2hpnd but it looks like the heat shroud is not low profile and lot sure if they can be replaced with a different shroud?? I will keep looking or if anyone knows more information on the new card please chime in!

I have updated with both wifi card and GPS mods done. No problems encountered.
