Here's some long distance flying (at least for a toy drone), made possible by external antenna mod and a wifi extender.
There was also some tailwind: usually the Visuo flies at about 20km/h, but here the average speed was closer to 30 km/h
For this flight the drone chose wrong white balance, and the image was too green. I corrected most of it, but the colors are still awful.
How to change the wifi antenna:
Look at this guys video : • Video
You open the craft, unscrew the top circuit board to get to wifi antenna. At 7:30 in that video you can see the golden wifi antenna connector that you need to unplug, and then replug the new connector. The guy in the video just pops it out, but it took me about 30 minutes to pry it out.. and another 10 to plug in the wifi antenna connector cable.

What wifi extender I am using and how to set it up:

Using it is easy: connect the repeater to usb power. Turn on your drone. Type usbwifi.cn on your phone browser, and choose the drone network from the network list. Then the repeater disconnects automatically, and creates a new network that has the same name as the drone network, but "_plus" added the the end. Connect to that. Done.
Note that if you first turn on your drone and then the extender, you phone might automatically connect to the drone and not to the extender. So turn the extender on first.
