Well, as I said in an earlier post. I did not see a banner, but went to the firmware download page and installed the new firmware manually with an SD card. I just went out and tested the Standard. I do have a Windsurfer on the antenna, but before the update, I could not get more than 2,000 feet out without a RTH kicking in, even with the Windsurfer. But just now, I flew out of my backyard where there is a lot of electrical interference, such as power transformers, and several very close WiFi station from the neighbors. Even with all of that, I was quickly able to go out 3,000 feet (914 meters.) I have never, ever, been able to do that before. My app still says that I have 1.6.8, but I truly doubt that. I have tried the ERGtek antennas, but removed then when I could only go out 2,089 feet. My Windsurfer gave me nearly the same. I just went out 3,000 feet. Something changed! I think I like it. |
