Cheap WiFi Repeater Setup for Long Range Drone Control

A cheap WiFi repeater amplifier can be used to control any of your toy WiFi FPV quadcopter for hundreds of meters. Find the Xiaomi repeater here goo.gl/pDicgg or here on Amazon amzn.to/2vyIOup , and you'll also need a power bank. Take your pick here goo.gl/vcLBL2
Pros
- Amplifies and retransmits signal from your phone to the quadcopter and vice versa. The end result is that your cheap WiFi quadcopter may be able to control your toy WiFi quadcopter farther than you can see it.
- Will also transmit FPV video signal for approximately the same control range.
Cons
- Best used without a separate controller (i.e. it's best to control the quadcopter using your phone only). A separate controller will create interference on the 2.4Ghz WiFi band, thus reducing maximum performance of the repeater.
- Requires an initial setup to bind the repeater to the quadcopter. The setup can be a little complex as shown in this video. But most toy quadcopters do not have a WiFi password, which simplifies the setup a bit. Also, once setup, the repeater remembers the quadcopter's signal for all future flights (no further setup required).

[@LuisGarcia-zf3he]

Hi T. Man Have you got any answer to this question? I'm also interested on that, please share if you did find something

[@b4dTaste]

@@theflyingscotsman3646 did you get it to work?

[@chadk727]

So this is my take on this set up and why it wont work. The main reason being that the drone itself is giving off the wifi signal not the controller so unless this booster is connected to the drone in the air it won't amplify its signal, basically when you connect the drone to this repeater and leave it right next to your phone it's only going to get the same signal as your phone because its connected from the drone to the repeater to your phone . But if you was to leave your set up there and take your phone back another 300 meters you'll get the extra range this way.. if the controller gave off the wifi signal then a repeater would boost the signal the way your trying in video

[@LaZyJeff]

Thanks ever so much for the help, I am using this to extend the range of a cheap WiFi camera I have attached to my drone and it’s high quality real time video, it’s absolutely awesome!

[@enigma6482]

Just a clarifying question; so connect to your wifi repeater and while still connected to the repeater, tell your drone to connect to the same repeater as well or do you have to disconnect from the repeater and then connect back to the drone and tell it to then connect to the repeater as well?

[@raiserjs]

Hi there! I have a Q4 Hubson minidrone but i dont have the original remote. Is it possible to pair a Syma controller with the drone? Ive seen other brands do that.

Is the interference between the remote and extender really that bad? I like to use a separate remote.

[@romanmartinez3701]

Would it be feasible to have an rc car with long range and have a drone in the air near the ending range of the rc car to extend the rc cars range with the drone acting as a signal extender ?

[@ChumyMototo]

Great video on the "Xiaomi Mi Setup" buddy, that's what I was looking for. by the way, I saw a couple of videos here on KZbin made it to 1Km (1000m) on the "Visuo xs809W" and the "Visuo xs809S Battle Shark" modified wi-fi antenna on the drone itself, by putting a hole and passing the antenna outside the drone, and some modified them seriously by adding a 3Dbi wi-fi antenna at the top of the drone itself, both ways reached 1Km. I wanted to try it, but my Drone is still in Transit (I ordered Online) and it's a Battle-Shark, since it can fly 18Minutes Flight time.

Would this work for the Go Pro Hero 4? I would like to get more than 50ft on my hero 4 on my fc40 phantom. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. New to DIY fpv but not drones.

[@amoreno75]

Hi, I was thinking that if something happens to the Hubsan App or even the cell phone the drone won't be able to detect it since it will be still connected to the repeater and I guess will be hovering till the battery dies.

Hi Quadcopter 101, thank you for all the great quadcopter reviews and tutorials. I bought the Xiaomi range extender and it does really offer some great range however I have one problem when I use follow me the quad doesn't really point in the right direction. Usually it points slight to my left, I am still in the frame but at the edge. Did you notice something similar?

[@Quadcopter101]

As the drone uses your phone's GPS to tell it where you're at, there's going to be some error between where the drone/phone's understanding of your position for follow me. To reduce this error and move yourself center in the shot, increase the distance between the drone and your position.

[@andreyvsjoker]

Thank you for your reply, I really appreciate it. The weird thing is that if I connect directly to the drone it always gets my position right but If I connect with the repeater it always gets my position wrong. I repeated the test few times just to make sure is not coincidence. And as you said the drone uses the GPS coordinates from the phone so it shouldn't matter if I connect to the repeater or not, this is why it is weird.,

[@Quadcopter101]

@@hobbymagicstopmotion Your particular drone uses 802.11ac 5Ghz WiFi frequency. This Mi repeater can only work with older 2.4Ghz WiFi. The 2.4Ghz Mi repeater also has a built-in WiFi amplifier, thus enabling it to provide greater FPV and control range of drones. None of the 5Ghz repeaters that I've tried had amplification, the 2.4Ghz Mi repeater seems to be an exception. Thus the 5Ghz repeaters will not provide any enhanced range to the 5Ghz drones.

[@Quadcopter101]

No this wouldn't work. The DE22 uses 5Ghz WiFi. This repeater only works with 2.4Ghz WiFi. And all the 5Ghz repeaters that I've tried did not have a built-in signal amplifier (like this 2.4Ghz repeater with amplifier). As such, the 5Ghz repeaters provide only minimal range increase.

[@vegaf2011]

I'm confused so say I only have hotspot available. I just use the repeater connect the repeater to my hotspot and then connect my drone to the same wifi?

[@Quadcopter101]

First off. Stop saying or thinking hotspot. There is not internet or data service involved. The drone is emitting its video signal over a 2.4Ghz WiFi signal. It has a built-in WiFi transmitter. But it is not connected to the internet. Just think of its WiFi as a radio signal embedded with video. The repeater can amplify that signal to allow greater range. The repeater receives the drone's WiFi signal, amplifies it, and sends it to your phone. The same thing is happening in reverse, with your control commands going from your phone, to the repeater where its amplified, and then sent to the drone.

[@vegaf2011]

Quadcopter 101 wow that's crazy 😲 I didn't know that but thanks for informing me. Now I'm really excited for my drone to come in the mail. This whole time I thought some type of wifi/ Hotspot was needed but man this is bad ass news 🙏🏻👍🏻. Thank you so much for the awesome vid BTW.

[@Quadcopter101]

The problem is that the controller of the H501S is also transmitting on 2.4Ghz, and thus creating interference. It should work better than using the Runcam2's WiFi alone, but you won't get the distance seen in this video due to the interference from the controller.

[@alanhayton4401]

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. Do you know expected range of the standard WIFI connection between the Runcam 2 and a phone/tablet device without any repeater? As I have not actually fitted the Runcam yet to the H501S I have not been able to test.

[@Quadcopter101]

Most WiFi cameras use the WiFi connection for remotely setting up parameters of the camera, framing the shot, or clicking the shutter. As such, their range is usually very short. FPV preformance is usually very poor, with maximum range being about 20 meters.

It should. But even if it does, the range would still likely be very short. The WiFi on action cameras is mainly for framing and taking selfie shots. As such, range is normally only 10s of feet. You might be able to double the range of the camera. But double would still be short and laggy for aerial video purposes.

Tried to set up extender with my Eachine e58 and it wiped out my e58's WiFi output! I had it when I used Mainland China and set it up as you showed. I changed to US server and signed in then the indicator stayed yellow after 4-5 resets. I turned the extender off and tried to just connect normally and now my e58 isn't broadcasting it's wifi ID. Any suggestions? Thanks, Rocky

[@Quadcopter101]

I really doubt that the repeater would cause that. But make sure to select and forget the extender signal if its still showing in the WiFi list.

[@dabbler90]

Quadcopter 101 I think the extender may have caused my SSID to be or become hidden. I don't have it written down anywhere, so I was wondering if I replaced the FPV module, (which includes WiFi TX, SD card reader, and camera), will that make the new SSID visible? The module is $20 from Banggood. Thanks, again. Rocky

[@Quadcopter101]

I really can't envision the extender doing such as it merely connects to the WiFi the same way your phone would. I really think that it has something to do with your phone. Do you have antoher phone or tablet that you could try connecting to the e58?

[@dabbler90]

Quadcopter 101 Yea, I set it up on my Note 8. I went to settings after 1 connect and switched to US server. Followed same steps EXCEPT there was no selection of models like the Chinese version had. When set up didn't work, I just disconnected the extender and looked for my e58. Nothing. Got out my old trusty Note 3 running a. Note 5 Lollipop ROM. Again, no e58. Turned everything off and started fresh, this time using my iPad mini 4. Still, no e58. Now, back to my question, will that replacement board, (new), broadcast the new SSID or is that generated by the main flight control board? Thanks, Rocky PS, I am leaving that extender alone for a while.

[@Quadcopter101]

That I don't know. By the way, when using the Mi Home app, select that you're in mainland China (not US). That way the Mi WiFi extenders show up in the menu. You may need to reinstall the app to enable the China selection to be available.
