  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Did a quick test today.

Original REDLink antenna : 36% signal from an airport express 10 meters away
Longer SMA antenna (originally from a teradek cube) : 52 % on same router
No antenna at all : < 10 %

I will try to get more wifi SMA female antennas and do some proper range testing to see how far it can go in open space / outdoor as I had lots of REDLink users interested in extending the range of the REDLink for studio, RC hell or Movi applications.

It is also obvious from simple tests that adding a router as a middle guy (if possible with external antennas) will also increase range versus using a direct connection to a laptop / phone via ad hoc network.

anyone else did any testing to evaluate REDLink range in real life situation ?

Nice Mikael, please do!!

I was intending to do this myself, even with some RC controller Antennas and such... SO looking forward to see what you come up with, as I am already all packed up for travel, and too bad I won't get to seed you in Paris, I guess next time... :)

Thanks again for follcontrol... Amazing APP... :)
