Score: 76/100
Skyreat Antenna Range Extender
Score: 68/100Rankings
Autel EVO II propeller guards offer a lightweight, tool-free solution that protects propeller arms with durable polycarbonate construction. They only cover part of the blades and lack app integration, with limited durability data available. Best for beginners and indoor or tight-space flying.
The Skyreat SKT266 is a lightweight 5.8 GHz Yagi-Uda antenna that significantly extends range for DJI Mini series drones while adding virtually no weight. Its drawbacks are the narrow directional beam, lack of weatherproofing, and limited technical documentation. It is best for hobbyists flying in open, line-of-sight conditions who need extra range.

“The drone actually flies very well with them... I really can't notice any difference [in performance]... they don't really affect the performance at all.”
No dedicated professional reviews were found, but antenna specialists acknowledge the SKT266’s high‑gain directional design as effective for extending line‑of‑sight range on DJI Mini drones, while cautioning about its narrow beamwidth and lack of weatherproofing.
RC hobbyists generally praise the antenna for its lightweight, compact form factor and the noticeable increase in range, often describing it as a game‑changer in open areas. However, they frequently note the difficulty of precise aiming and occasional signal loss when alignment is off.
