    collin using alfa antenna

    I love my FPVLR's but I may get some alphas for the wider signal angle. I do love the range I get with FPVLR, but I don't always need that distance. I love having options.

    How to extend range on the Solo

    Erik, I agree that omni is great for most needs. I find the FPVLR to be great at punching through local interference. I believe some people are actually modding the bird for even more distance. All I can say is in a city with tons of interference, I could only get 900 feet and 300 feet of...

    How to extend range on the Solo

    Hey Jun, I have read your post on attenuators. Very interesting. At some point I will probably get a SW meter to check it out. For now I can say that with my "home testing" I've come up with plenty of distance for my needs. Almost a mile in the city isn't bad. That is with the amplified FPVLR. I...

    How to extend range on the Solo

    Yes.....the battery has a switch on it. Just switch it on and boom.....tons of signal.

    How to extend range on the Solo

    The battery powers the 2 amps. Did you read my other post? Amps boost the signal and get powered by a battery.

    How to extend range on the Solo

    I run the FPVLR's and I love them. If I don't need the distance, I run without the amps. But yesterday I ran with the amps and got out 4000 feet at 350 feet altitude in a seriously WiFi interference prone city. I'm sure they would get out much farther in an open area. Check out the video...

    Recording overlay on screen

    In the new update, did they get rid of the overlay on the screen that showed FPS, FOV etc. Or is it just a setting somewhere?

    Tower questions

    Can't you program the last waypoint in Tower to "land". I haven't had the joy of setting up and executing a mission yet, but I am looking forward to it. Still reading and learning. Whoops.....someone already said that. :)

    Apparently GoPro control in a week

    Why does everyone want it yesterday. They could have changed their minds and we would have nothing. Instead they are testing or re-testing because of issues probably out of their control. On that note......patience people. I can still find ways of doing what I need to do till the upgrade is...

    How are there Solo backpacks for $159 and $400 on ebay?

    Buyer beware. Always look before you buy. Anyone spending 400 bucks for the backpack must have too much money on their hands. But, that is the American free enterprise system.

    Solo & Gear FS

    Too funny. I'm sure you're happy that you didn't get rid of it. As you can see I am new to this forum and to flying. That being said, I have a 3DR Solo and gimbal with a GoPro Hero 4 silver. Running with a dedicated Galaxy Tab A. All seems to be working well, but I'm still testing the waters.
