Hey guys, i bought my first drone an inspire 1 v2 here in northen Europe. To my disappointment it only went about 0.5- 0.6 miles (0.8km) before the first signs of signal loss came. That made me buy the fpvlr half helix signal booster in hopes that i would increase my distance that i could fly. The reason I bought the drone was because I wanted to go at least 4-5km to record great areas of Forrest where I live. After installing the booster i got to about 1.8 miles before the signal start to get weak. Because I live in the Forrest with nothing that could interfere with the drone I thought it was strange, because I saw videos in YouTube where people go almost twice the distance before they start to loose signal (probably because they use FCC model)
So my question is that if it is possible to buy inspire 1 antennas from an FCC model and put on my inspire to further increase the range? Or do i have to change more, like the signal output, or do I have to buy a completly new model T601 instead? My knowledge is not the greatest on radio technology but what I have read the radio/antennas on the actual drone (and maybe on the controller as well) have a higher output in dBm and mw. 30dbm instead of 20 in CE. (I know it is not legal to have over 100mw in EU but my question is only theoretical) But do anyone with a more expertise think it is any idea to change the antennas or is it just a waste of time? Like this one DJI Inspire 1 T600 Drone Part 9 Landing Gear w/ LED, TX/RX Antenna Quad Copter
Thanks in advice
