WiFi for drones is a standard feature in modern flying machines. WiFi is more reliable and cheaper than other internet access methods. It works with almost all operating systems. The range can be as short as 1000 meters. However, some enhanced WiFi systems can reach over ten KM. Almost all modern drones use WiFi for connectivity and download large images or videos. WiFi is a feature that almost all drones today have.
DJI Inspire 2
DJI Inspire 2 offers a feature called "RTH" that allows you to fly your drone over WiFi. RTH is a function that allows the Inspire 2 to collect information from its environment and plan a route to its base. It can detect obstacles from 200 meters away, and help you restore communication with your remote controller faster after losing signal. It also includes a 360-degree rotating camera.
The Inspire 2 system is equipped with a transmitter, and a receiving device that can be connected to WiFi. Both the Inspire 2's receiver and transmitter are capable of sending and receiving video. Inspire 2's dual-band Lightbridge HD video transmission device is also available. This allows you to view both FPV and main cameras from a distance seven kilometers. The Phantom 3 Standard's 2.4GHz WiFi system transmits seven kilometers.
DJI Phantom 4.
DJI's WiFi Kit for DJI Phantom 4 will allow you to take aerial photos or videos with your drone. These accessories provide additional WiFi signal range to your drone. The DJI Phantom 4 Advanced & Professional Wi-Fi Signal Range Extender Antenna Kit has 32 channels. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easy for anyone to use, even in dense areas.
To use WiFi on the DJI Phantom 4, follow these steps. Turn on the drone first by pressing the power button. If it is off, hold it for about 15 seconds until you hear the initialization sound.

You will need to first install DJI GO on your smartphone before you can fly.
WiFi allows you to transmit video securely, but it does have some limitations. Its signal range can be limited, especially when compared with the 5.8GHz control signal. DJI invented the lightbridge which eliminates the need and hassle of testing the wifi signal. DJI Phantom 3 is now available with WiFi. This allows you to capture beautiful aerial photos even if you're far away from your operator.
DJI Phantom 4 Pro
The WiFi for DJI Phantom 4 Pro is a great option when it comes to connecting to your mobile device. It is possible to control the drone using a phone, tablet or computer. The WiFi for DJI Phantom 4 Pro controller installation is simple. It is compatible with iOS devices.

How To
How to Fly Drones with Beginners
A drone is a remote-controlled aircraft used for aerial photography, cinematography, surveillance, scientific research, and hobby purposes. Drone technology has existed since World War II. DJI's Phantom quadcopters became commercially available in 2010. Since then, there have been many different types of drones available, from beginner-friendly models like the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 to professional-grade multi-rotor craft like the DJI Mavic Pro.
There are many methods to fly a Drone, including
-
Remote control – This is when you attach a device to your hand that allows you to control the drone's flight path. There are two main types, On/Off switches (like radios) and joysticks.
-
Manual Control - This method uses a smartphone app to remotely control the drone using GPS coordinates. You will need to keep track of where the drone is going and follow the directions from the app.
-
Autonomous flight - The drone takes over the piloting duties. It is basically flying autonomously and without human intervention. A drone must have a builtin camera and sensors capable to capture images and other data.
-
Triggered flight - This is similar to manual control except that the pilot sets up a preprogrammed route and the drone follows the route until it reaches its destination. Once the programmed route has been completed, the drone returns to the base automatically.
-
Landing Gear - Some drones come equipped with landing gear that allows them to land safely if they lose power or run out of battery during flight.
-
Goggles - Some pilots wear goggles to protect themselves from debris while operating.
-
Camera - Certain drones come with cameras that allow you to take photos and videos from high above.
-
Obstacles: Some drones are equipped with obstacle avoidance systems to prevent them from hitting obstacles.
-
Speed - Some drones reach speeds exceeding 40 mph.
-
Battery Life - Most drones are capable of lasting between 20 minutes and three hours, depending on the power that you use.
-
Some drones have a range of up to 30 miles, depending on their model.
-
Power source - Some drones require an external power source; others work off internal batteries.
-
Weight - Some drones are lighter than others, while some models can weigh as much as 4 pounds.
-
Size - From small drones that can be carried in the palm of one's hand to larger drones that weigh over 50 pounds, drones come in a variety of sizes.
-
Price - From high-end models that cost thousands of dollars to low-cost options that start at $100, all drones fall under a certain price category.
