    Excellent job explaining a complex subject, I was looking at that screen earlier and didn't have a clue what it was about. At least now I know what it is so I won't be afraid that I'm doing or not doing something critical. Thanks

  • @TAPPChannel
    @TAPPChannel 6 лет назад

    Can you change frequency during the flight or that will cost loosing signal with the drone?

    • @billykyle
      @billykyle  6 лет назад +1

      Yeah you can change

    • @TAPPChannel
      @TAPPChannel 6 лет назад

      thanks I was just taking real estate shots today and my signal was terrible.... I couldn't depend on my screen at all. I felt like I'm back to my first drone with the gopro mounted to the drone... I've also had similar problems 2days ago while I flew in downtown Chicago thats why I'm asking if I can change safely during the flight because I'm going to downtown now to test it... I've also relinked RC since I found out that may resolve my problem... Any advices? Is that true that DJIGo4 app requires 2ram memory on phone?? If so My iPhone6 has only 1gb.... I can upgrade my phone if that will solve the problem... Thanks for quick reply... I need to retake those Real Estate shots tomorrow or on Sat at the latest
      Cheers

    That explains it perfectly, I incorrectly assumed 5.8 would get me more distance. Keep up the great work.

    thanks for the post. you mention the 5.8 has 'distance' limitations compared to the 2.4. Have you tested this and noted and compared the distance results?

  • @jorgeprietom007
    @jorgeprietom007 5 лет назад

    Excellent Billy, but how do you make the signal to reach the central control in a live concert in order they can send your shooting to big LED screens? That is Lightbridge 2? Thanks a lot.

  • @patmartel100
    @patmartel100 7 лет назад

    Great videos, Billy. One question. Why is there a lag between where your drone is, and what you see on screen? Is there a way to reduce the delay? I crashed my old Phantom 2 Vision Plus as I watched the screen, and looked up and it was in the trees, while the screen showed it still flying. I have a Mavic Pro now. There seems to be a slight lag.

    • @billykyle
      @billykyle  7 лет назад +1

      +patmartel100 It's not going to be instant as the data needs to transmit from the drone back to the controller. With the being said, the lag is (at most times) not noticeable.

  • @bruceedwards7626
    @bruceedwards7626 6 лет назад

    Very Informative. However, "range" is still a question regarding frequency choice. How much safe range should I expect in a clear environment at 5.6 GZ? If the picture breaks up a lot, what are other possible reasons such as loose/damaged cables, cell tower and other types of interference? Describing potential interference sources would assist in troubleshooting. Thanks again.

  • @muzikmon2267
    @muzikmon2267 6 лет назад

    You also said it allows better communication between the phone or tablet and the Drone correct?
    I was under the impression again that when you connect the cable you can even shut the Wi-Fi off in your phone so how does the Wi-Fi have anything to do with connecting your phone to the mavic Pro Controller unless you're just flying with your phone?
    The cable is basically just an image signal transmission that's it.
    Am I missing something?
    A lot of times I'm out to lunch sorry LOL

  • @user-vj9qz3br6l
    @user-vj9qz3br6l 5 лет назад

    Does the quality of your phone/tablet have any effect on the transmission of the video? My cheap 120 dollar tablet doesn't display the video when I fly, like if the signal was very weak. I was flying in an open area without any buildings around.

  • @JohnMRaggio
    @JohnMRaggio 6 лет назад

    Hoping Billy or others can help clear something up for me. What, if anything, does the image transmission settings have to do with distance that the RC can control a Spark? Is it possible that a RC could still control the craft even if it is out of range to stream video? My theory was that there were two wifi connections to the Spark over both frequencies and that the RC would use whichever was not being used for the video stream to control the Spark. Does same apply if using the phone to control the Spark? Why would OTG allow folks to fly further as that only controls the connection between remote and app. Is that because if using local wifi to communicate between RC and device the other freq is used to control RC to Spark? Bottom line, how do OTG, and freq contribute to longer flight distance, if at all?

  • @TheColonelJJ
    @TheColonelJJ 7 лет назад

    Billy, could this issue relate to my problem?
    Out of the blue, my phones and two tablets developed an 8 second delay between my control input to the mavic (instant) and the screen showing the movement. Mechanically everything seems fine. But I'm not seeing any inputs (gimbal or flight controls) for 8 seconds on any screen. All flights have been in my backyard. I had no problems flying in Europe most of the summer. Nor any problems before I left for vacation. But, first flights after coming home... and here I am asking for help!
    Any thoughts???

  • @2ljones
    @2ljones 7 лет назад

    Hi Biily, do I understand correctly that we can use 2.4g or 5.8g to control the quad. (Mavic)? I use 5.8g for FPV video and was wondering what is used to transmit the video signal for the Mavic. (Will my 5.8g goggles receive the signal from the Mavic. I know just try it. lol) Thanks!

And I'm trying to figure out how to make it look like every other spark footage I've seen. Mine is a little grainy and I see a lot of the digital squares when light changes. Any help would be appreciated. Also I'm your newest sub!

  • @vsantiesteban562
    @vsantiesteban562 5 лет назад

    What frequency should I use to fly over my city? I am currently using 2.4 and I lose signal at 2000 feet out and 300 feet high . Any suggestions?

  • @muzikmon2267
    @muzikmon2267 6 лет назад

    I'm confused I was under the impression and you can see it on a DJI Pro Controller at the top right-hand corner it automatically switches back and forth between 2.4 G and 5.8 G to give you the best signal when you're flying so I don't know why you would switch this.. unless dji's technology is not good at switching back and forth?

    Hey Billy, I have a Mavic 2 Zoom with the Crystalsky monitor, I fly about 3000 feet away and I loose my HD signal what should I look for as far as problems, if i bring the drone up to 350 feet it is a little better. The area I fly is well wooded. I never have had this issue before, I have flew up to two miles away last summer. Screen says i have lost signal. Any help would be great

    So, do you ever switch between 5.8 or 2.4 Ghz ? And how far can you fly outside with 5.8 without losing feed ?

    • @billykyle
      @billykyle  7 лет назад +2

      +Kabal LV I've gotten to a distance of about 2000 feet before the image transmission got really choppy on 5.8 ghz. The only time that I switch to 2.4 ghz is if I'm in a remote location that isn't very busy, thus less interruption.

    • @bradyschickinger9331
      @bradyschickinger9331 7 лет назад

      I've read recommendations of when to switch that match the detailed explanation that you provided. Essentially 5.8 is best for short range flights and urban environment. 2.4 is better for longer range flights and wilderness areas. I had forgotten this until you posted this video. Thank you! This is perhaps the one settings screen that receives the least bit of attention.
