First line of attack, (The cheaper one) are the "ears" :
They gave about 40% increase. Will vary depending on environment.

I own these.. While I thought it was all hype they do actually work. I have all 3 styles of them.

I just ordered a set hope they really work. Haven't heard anyone say they don't.

They work good for me also. $10 is worth it. They do however defect most of the envelope forward. So just try to face the bird direction. Peace.

I also fly around the Swan and my stock p4p easily gets 4+K's from UWA boatshed area to Canning bridge but only about 3+k's from JoJo's west. I have however just bought a 4Hawks Raptor XR from MAXX UAV but am yet to install it. Depending on the conditions and battery capacity, upto 8k's each way should be doable - I hope!

Hey TD, I've had the XR setup on the P4 since June and also live in Perth if you want to compare notes!!
