I wondering if there are any phantom 4 fliers out there that are flying dbs Maxxrange unboosted and what type of range are you getting?

I actually purchased a p3 controller and added the maxx range mod to fly my p4 and I have to say that it increased the range a ton.  Its a rather bulky antenna but the power is amazing.  I was getting around 4000 ft before the mod and now I'm getting close to 18000 ft.  Its definitely worth the investment.

Are you line of sight? Like over the ocean or desert? or through tree's in a residential area?  I see very little change in my residential area w/ the dbs antenna's.

That's what I read and heard many times... I think we need kind of a 'scientific' test of all these mods to see which promises are really delivered and which ones are no more than hot air.

I was looking @ a this mod, and they had video showing the testing, they also offered to install and test to confirm it worked on your controller, still this is risky I believe. I wish authorised dealer could prove or disprove these claims. I am not sure if I am gonna try this mod, but it def wouldn't be on my original controller, I will purchase a used or new one, and I will be sending it to these guys to try n test. I wonder if some of the ones that dont work so well are purchased extenders that have been installed by purchaser, and thus maybe they missed or over looked something ( not saying, just saying, lol). Regardless, anything done to original equipement will void warrenty, so I wont tamper with it.

Im flying line of site over ohio river valley and a small river town and I live on a hill so I'm up about 200' and then I fly out from there.  The trees do become an obstacle the farther out I go because the angle gets less.  The maxx range antenna makes a big difference in this location.
