Nice, informative video. Have 2 Bobcats ordered, expect first one in couple of weeks. Wasn't aware of Helium.Vision until now - a very useful tool. Topography here in the Netherlands is a little flat and every extra meter of elevation literally goes a long, long way
Hi there. I learned a lot from your video. I'm a complete novice and I have a question regarding signal strength. I plan to connect a Nebra helium indoor hotspot to a 6.5 dBi Mikrotik omnidirectional antenna with a 10 m RF-240 cable (1.5 dB loss as calculated from manufacturer specifications). I was wondering if it is correct to think that the signal from the hotspot will reach the antenna, and then be amplified and emitted by the antenna at 6.5 dBi? And will the signal from the hotspot actually reach the antenna? Any insight into this question is much appreciated!
The signal from the hotspot ( 27 dBm in the US) will reach the antenna, losing 1.5 dB along the way from the cable (your calcs), then will be focused (not amplified) to emit at the max point of gain at 6.5. Total EIRP = 27 - 1.5 + 6.5. Does that make sense?
Some of the features appear to work only in certain parts of the world. Checking near Bangkok, there are no buildings or topography shown when I zoom in.
This video is from a while ago, shouldn't be any giant changes. To fully learn how to use HeliumVision, check out the course I built, here: grstl.ink/hvmaster
Nope, it's a separate paid app, you can find it at Helium.vision Shameless plug (if you want to really use it like a pro) gristleking.com/heliumvision-masterclass-v1/
Odd. The sound isn't amazingly good, but I'm hearing it clearly with speakers at half volume. Might be worth trying headphones. This was one of my earlier vids, before I really started dialing in sound. :)
You have a lot of knowledge but you often don't explain it well. The simulation requires 1 "credit." Where does one get credits? What is a tracked wallet, and how does one connect?
Hi Miblish, HeliumVision is a paid service. A number of credits are included in the subscription, but you can buy more in the app. Check out my HeliumVision Masterclass if you want to dive in deep. --> grstl.ink/hvmaster
