yes please.... let us know how the range extenders work, watched vid of a guy with a Mavic almost dbl his distance... I know DJI is a different animal, but I figure wifi is wifi... Haven't had any problems losing connection since I realized I needed to cut my phone wifi off... since then, all updates (43-46)
haven't had any connection problems haven't flown out to far (500-600m)...I always start the drone, then controller, then the app... BEFORE... I plug it into the phone... always hooks up OK, binding, GPS test.... flying!!!!... I also have a cheap Samsung phone, J3 I think... 1.3 quad... only problem I've had is yellow, purple flashing... switched to manual camera mode took care of that, hopefully until the next cam. update.... good luck 🤞

I'd be interested in hearing how those range extenders go as well.
I'm still having a few disconnection issues at times

I am waiting for my parabolic extenders as well... All test show positive effect. I have had a few short distance (15m) disconnects as well.

Still haven’t tested mine yet, still making sure I have a stable Zino first. I have flown out to 500 meters without the extenders without a glitch of any kind so far. Hope to test distance this weekend, weather permitting.

Constant loss of signal, FPV and control signal lag and erratic control rates are really frustrating me
ZINO is getting more, not less, temperamental with each firmware upgrade
I'm becoming more and more afraid of operating ZINO anywhere near people or structures
