    Mantis Q antenna upgrade

    Hi, Mantis Q operates only in 5 GHz Wifi (FCC ID 2ACS5-YUNMQA Mantis Q by Yuneec Technology Co., Limited) and its original controller also (FCC ID 2ACS5-YUNMQRC Mantis Q Remote Controller by Yuneec Technology Co., Limited) from the FCC report: New Mantis G will operate in 2.4 and 5 GHz as...

    Using Mantis Q and QGROUNDCONTROL -update firmware

    Hi, to use QGC you don't need the controller, but a 5 GHz Wifi capable device instead (iOS, android, linux or windows one, with QGC installed) Have a look to Mantis Q questions I use a windows laptop with its internal wifi adapter and antenna. You can obtain better range for your mission if...

    Bad signal with controller (mantis q)

    Excuse the delay, I have been out last weeks. The controller connects with its own wifi internal module, and uses the phone and app to display video, data and some controls (not flying controls). In this mode you don't need phone's wifi. Phone's wifi/data are only used to download firmware...

    Bad signal with controller (mantis q)

    This is a very short distance, indeed. Be sure your phone wifi does not connect to the Mantis Q, I suggest to switch phone wifi off. When tablet/phone connects via Wifi to Mantis Q, the App uses Phone Mode, one could see wirtual joysticks on the screen In this mode, maximun range is around...

    Using Mantis Q and QGROUNDCONTROL -update firmware

    You can`t update Mantis Q firmware using QGC, and you should not try, as QGC states "QGroundControl desktop versions can install PX4 Pro or ArduPilot firmware onto Pixhawk-family flight-controller boards" Mantis Q is PX4 based, but it has not a Pixhawk compatible board. I had no problems using...

    Bond error

    It appears you're trying to connect using QGroundControl from a phone or tablet with Android or IOS. You only need a 5 GH WiFi capable device, and connect to your Mantis Q AP using its SSID and password. Don't connect at all your controller. Start QGroundControl and it will discover and...

    PC AS FLIGHT VIEWING, INSTEAD OF PHONE

    Hi @FINNY, did you solve your question? You only need 5 GHz Wifi connectivity, get an USB Wifi if not built-in. As @WTFDproject suggested, you can use any stream player RSTP capable. For your PC you may install VideoLAN VLC Player, picomixer PMPlayer, or any other, an connect to...

    Aircraft won't connect after very minor crash

    Yes, it is a bit tricky, and it will void your warranty. At first, i suggest you to double check all connections, I found that if there is any sensor not set up correctly, system hangs in a loop and never connects through Wifi. After I attached a FTDI cable to the debug port (system console) I...
