  • In this video I explain how you can boost your DJI Phantom wifi signal so you can achieve up to 3 miles distance by adding amps to your controller if you want the range of the more expensive drones.

      Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it. When I first did the mod to the controller I had to do a lot of research and bought a lot of unnecessary components so I figured I would share the end result to help people.

    Hello Johnny, I just hooked this unit up that you talk about. How blue and fast does the amp light blink. Hell I don’t think my light blinks blue

    Thank you very much for making this video. But how do you connect both of the amplifiers to that battery ? I'm getting ready to set mine up and I don't understand how everyone is doing it.

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  5 лет назад +1

      JB Block The amps should have one female input on the side of each one. The power cell needs to have two male jacks. If the wires on the power supply are male plus female, you’ll have to solder a male in place of the female on the power supply wires. Good luck.

    what range do you think I will get on my dji phantom 3 4k. it have the same controller as the advanced and pro so the mod will work. I have magic power on it so I can reach distanses of 1200m without windsurfers.

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  3 года назад

      If you read some of my other replies my best distance under perfect condition with this PA3 and my modifications was 17,250 feet. Be careful when distance testing. It’s a good way to lose your drone.

      @@JOHNPJORDAN50 ye i knew that but I have a phantom 3 4k not a phantom 3 advanced its different drones i can reash distanses of 1200 m stock becuase the magic power mod gives extra power but your drone can reach 3,5 km on ce mode and 5 km on fcc mode without magic power. Thats what it says on dji website anyway. But what distanses where you able to get with the stock antennas?

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  3 года назад

      Yes, I have a Phantom as well. This is a different mod for a different drone so I generally get the same distance stock Mavic has a longer flight time. Never did a distance test with it.

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  3 года назад

      All that info is included in my comment page. I was originally getting 1200-2000 feet of WiFi connection with the P3A before the mod. As far as the Phantom goes I’ve never done a mod.

      Hey Doug I'm having trouble pasting the link on here. I just went on Ebay and put in "SMA male to RP-SMA male RF coaxial adapter" RP stands for reverse polarity. They should ship out of Forest Park Illinois so you know your on the right page bro.

      No. You have to buy connectors on E-bay. You should do the mod Kenny. I did a distance test and my Wi-Fi didn't break up until 15,000 feet. They have the Sunhans amps on Amazon and E-bay. It's $10.00 cheaper on E-bay

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  7 лет назад

      No, Just Advanced and Professional but check out one of my subscribers "welcome to the rock" RUclips channel. He has a standard that has one of the best antenna mods I have seen. He's getting 15,000 feet with his mod. He has a antenna mod installation video for the Standard and couple of distance tests videos. Well worth checking out his channel if your looking for WiFi range on a standard

  • @markennes5208
    @markennes5208 6 лет назад +1

    I suggest you change the title... edit it to take out the word "Wi-Fi" because that controller does not use Wi-Fi, it uses lightbridge.

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  6 лет назад

      Noted, but it's the WiFi signal that gives you your picture on your screen not the lightbridge.

    • @markennes5208
      @markennes5208 6 лет назад +1

      Sorry but you're mistaken. It's Lightbridge that gives you the FPV video image on your screen. That's why you have to use the cable to connect your mobile device to the controller. If you were using WiFi, you could connect the old-fashioned way - by finding the wifi signal on your mobile device and connecting. Lightbridge is also the reason you can get 3-mile FPV range as opposed to the 1000 meters FPV range of the P3S which is burdened with having to use WiFi.

    • @JOHNPJORDAN50
      @JOHNPJORDAN50  6 лет назад

      Understand. Just a question. Why are they called WiFi amps. ? Just curious

    • @markennes5208
      @markennes5208 6 лет назад +1

      Because it's good marketing. These are 2.4 ghz amps and WiFi uses 2.4 ghz. But so does Lightbridge. Most people are familiar with WiFi. A 2.4 ghz amp is going to amplify a 2.4 ghz signal - any signal. Wifi, radioprinter, morse code, Lightbridge, facsimile, anything.
