At the start of the video I said that this will be a sophisticated task but turns out it is quit easy to do.
This is for my Upcoming project which is a vehicle with track and a fpv camera so stay tuned for that video as well in the near future.

This was really helpful. Worked as advertised and the detail is greatly appreciated. Tip about the glue gun is a great idea.

[@RobotBuilder100]

Great video! This is exactly what I will be doing today. I really liked the way that there is no pre-content and/or music. You get right to the content! I will be using an Xacto knife. Keep up the good work. Thanks, JD.

I completed this mod to a couple esp32s. So far I have seen a noticeable difference in wifi capability! This definitely works! My esp32 is in a shop ~50 ft from my home, behind 2 walls. It monitors my solar panels. And it's acting as an access point for any device in my house that wants to connect and see the panels stats. The solar panel controller does come with bluetooth, but we all know what the range of bluetooth is like. :( So - I read the data with the esp32 then broadcast it towards my house. Before this mod, I didn't have a signal in my house at all. Couldn't even see the AP. Now, I'm actually able to get data - most of the time at least. I'm going to make a DIY biquad antenna for the esp32 and a raspberry pi in my house to see if I can increase both ends of that signal really well.

[@INOVATRIX]

Very nice 👌. If you want even better range you can add a 2.4Ghz amplifier to increase the range also.

[@design8studio]

Thanks. Great explanation.

[@unknownblueblue]

thank you worked

[@edisonkho5874]

can it work with antenna operating in Ku band (12-18GHz)? can you suggest any controller that support this frequency range.

[@MrRoma70]

Pretty sophisticated work, that made me laugh, lol

[@tba3679]

Made me stay to the end 😅

[@jqzIII]

Old laptops have an antenna/wire set. Some a few. Great for scrounging they are.

[@DustyPhillips]

The mesh should be going to the shield.. it looks like both traces are positive for phase loading.. otherwise they would not be connected... You are shorting the antenna.

[@Dyrgrip]

Perfect! Thank you!

[@INOVATRIX]

Glad it helped!

[@Dyrgrip]

@@INOVATRIX It worked like a charm. :)

[@catursubagyo360]

If I look at the ESP32 the end of the line is one, I have tried it with 1 cable and the results are both good

[@guililuize585]

Thanks

[@GmrsKissimmee]

Can i with Lora Antenna 915mhz- is compatible ?

[@Ekozip1234]

did it work for bluetooth too?

[@whitehatdaily82]

Is that transmitter or receiver?

[@istemihanmp]

a simple question if i dont plug in the antenna to sma adapter it will keep working righT?

[@INOVATRIX]

Yes it will work as I usually don't have the antenna plugged in while I am programming and testing the board. But I'm not sure about the effect it'll have on the range.

[@hibahprice6887]

как это сделать на KRC 86B? Где там заземление, а где контакт на антенну, там всего одна дорожка(

[@ArrehYhan]

is it also applicable to ESP8266?

[@beststorytime4325]

What's the estimated range difference (in feet)?

[@esf-studio-main]

I can clearly see blood in his finger. Bro just cut his finger for this video.

wherer did you got that antenna buy link ? nd buy link for esp32 chip too ?

[@INOVATRIX]

It's all available on Amazon

[@user-ff1mn6cz3g]

Sir can you please tell me how much range increase after antina ??? Approximately?

[@beststorytime4325]

no one never knows lol

[@geheimspionchase8658]

Does this antenna also extends the Bluetooth-range or only the wifi?

[@jyreprejoles7604]

Same question

[@geheimspionchase8658]

@@jyreprejoles7604 well i bought it and can answer now, it indeet also extend the Bluetooth range a lot. I used the module for am firework ignition system and autside the box the old esp had a range of arround 40-50 m insinde the box only 5m. With the new antenna i didnt test it to its limits but it went at least back to the original range

[@patonaranjo9394]

Hello, I have the same doubt. Did you find the answer to your question or did you test with Bluetooth to see if it increases the distance range?

[@OutOfNameIdeas2]

Should be same as they both use the same antenna

[@devilvortex1]

The antenna length must be calculated. Speed of light / frequency.

[@user-rq6rx5cp7i]

Это так. Но... То есть, вас не смущает, что вместо разъёма ufl или тому подобного, антенна просто припаяна к дорожкам приёмника, из-за чего будут возникать дикие помехи?))

[@aaronschoenberg1726]

Do you have a part number for the cable you are connecting? Where did you purchase it? Thanks

[@INOVATRIX]

It usually comes with the antenna but if it doesn't then you can search for it as "sma antenna extension cable".

[@khasuist]

You can give antenna from old router

[@jyreprejoles7604]

Bluetooth and Wifi have the same Frequency range (2.4Ghz). I think it will also extend the BLE because they shared the same antenna. What do you think guys? Pls comment. Thank you

is there a range test video? please share the link.

[@INOVATRIX]

Unfortunately no, it was a bit silly from my end not to do a range test but you can find other people's video on this easily.

Will this help extend the BLE range also or just wifi?

It's a WiFi antenna…

[@TheGoodMorty]

Will this increase both sensitivity and output?

[@INOVATRIX]

I didn't check the before and after state so can't really say but it will surely increase the range although not by much.

[@TheGoodMorty]

​@@INOVATRIXI just mean, will this increase the range that the signal goes out and the range that signals can be picked up? or does it only increase the range signal goes out?

[@INOVATRIX]

Should help in both

[@jyreprejoles7604]

Model of the ESP32?

[@ManuelNogueiras]

It's looks like an ESP-WROOM-32 DevKit. You have also the "S" version with the antenna connector already integrated.

doesn't look safe steps.

[@INOVATRIX]

It does involve some risk.

[@wargakonoha2689]

​@@INOVATRIXWhat risks will be obtained if you apply such an antenna?

[@atmozphera]

what a crap job... buy a ESP32 with RP-SMA built.

[@chimeranzl9147]

what a dick comment

[@timfoster5043]

He's talking about RF, not WiFi. The WiFi module from Ghost has an ESP32 WROOM chip ...with built-in antenna, unfortunately. You'd have to do a solder hack if you wanted to add RP-SMA.

Hi mate, do u have whatsapp or something so I can learn more?
