    Solo WiFi antennas

    I have looked there, and they definitely aren't listed by themselves. They might be part of the body kit, but they're not specifically mentioned. Any other suggestions?

    Solo WiFi antennas

    So I took my Solo for a short flight the other day, and I had TERRIBLE reception. It was a place I'd flown before, shouldn't have been an issue. I'm talking RTH at 120' out, with the video feed stuttering the whole time. I took my Solo apart to investigate, and it seems that somehow one of my...

    The command submitted to the Solo to generate the file does specify that it wants the latest log created. I could look into what other options are available and present a dialog to allow the user to choose between "latest" and whatever other options there are. I just need to figure out what...

    I'm not sure why you got a zero byte file... I'll try to do some testing tonight and see what I find. I know that it downloaded correctly for me when I last tried it, but maybe I broke something doing the Country Code update.

    OK, new version uploaded. A few tweaks in the name of stability, and added the ability to easily change the country code for people who regularly visit other countries. To be honest, I'm not sure what changing the country code will do, but Ian asked for it, so there you go...

    Since people are looking for a description of what the changes do, I threw together a help page after doing a bit of Googling so I can at least sound intelligent. Solo Tweaker - Help For anyone curious what the changes are, there you go. If someone who actually knows what they're talking...

    I also added buttons for the two requested features - a revert to stock button and a button to generate and download the DataFlash logs.

    I set up a page for it now. Solo Tweaker The file itself can be directly downloaded from http://www.glowingpixels.com/Solo/SoloTweaker.zip and I'll keep that updated as new functionality is added.

    Yes, the tool connects, downloads the hostapd.conf, edits the local copy, then uploads the modified version back up and calculates the MD5 hash. Definitely could add a function to download the log files.

    Yeah, that's probably a good idea, and a task for tomorrow. Nearly midnight here.

    I figured SSHing and SFTP might push the limits of some folks' technical abilities, so I wrote a little Windows program to deal with all of that should you choose to use it. It just makes the changes that Ian [P13] discussed in his video. It keeps both a before and after version of the file...

    WiFi Card upgrade testing

    Has anybody considered changing/upgrading the antennas on the Solo itself? Are there some better mini pci-e antennas that can be swapped in? I'm new to this whole thing, but I already have the MikroTik radios and the cheapo Alfa panel antennas from Amazon. Getting good range, just curious if...
