+I know nothing of drone technology or small chips, but typically you can amplify a signal as much as you like multiple times over. The trick, I'd assume, is to ensure distortion doesn't happen between amplifiers, and bandwidth doesn't change between transmitters (you don't want a wide banded signal trying to communicate with a narrow banded receiver, for example. At least not for data like this). The whole point of a linear amplifier is to amplify while retaining the original signal. 
+
+All that being said, it might just be easier to drive a signal from the get-go with more power and be done with it. Not over driving your current chip, but getting a chip that can be programmed with your ideal frequency that puts out more power by design.

+SMT is definitely more compact. For a beginner though I wouldn't go for anything smaller than SOIC ICs. Whether to go for the common 0603 size passives is hard to say, you definitely need a fine soldering tip for that (1.5mm screwdriver tip maximum size, definitely not a straight conical).

+Also, glow in the dark materials are abrasive and will wear heavily on your extruder components and nozzle. It's normal to use a hardened steel or other abrasive-resistant nozzle when using glow in the dark material, otherwise you can destroy several brass nozzles with a single roll of glow-in-the-dark filament depending the brand.

+Black and Glow don't go together.
+Glow needs light to get in and out, black stops either.
+There are some dark blue and purple glow filaments with glowing glitter and stuff in them, they fucking suck though, don't bother.
+
+Start with black:
+https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DKQR8HD
+https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DKPYYBP
+https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DCQ972K
+
+Then, paint it with a layer of transparent/clear glow-in-the-dark paint.
+Most "clear" glow paint tends to be a slightly milky translucent white, that's the trade-off. The clearer it is, usually the less glow pigment there is.
+You can add more, more layers, get brighter and better glow out of it, but it'll look more and milk like there's a thin layer of semen painted over the whole thing.
+Glow applied over black will always be less bright than it would be over white or another lighter color, those bright colors reflect a lot of light back through the glowing pigment, whereas the black does not.
+
+Black and Glow don't go together, fabric is about the only place you can really pull it off well, and that requires textiles made from scratch to glow, you don't want to add glow to black fabric.
+Could probably do a black and glow filament co-extrusion, that'd be closer to how it's done with fabrics, but not something most people would do at home. I should try that.

+There's black glow in the dark PLA, but maybe there's some other reason why the ABS can't be done the same way.
+--- 2604481
+>>2604476
+ABS usually an opaque material. There is transparent ABS, but it's uncommon, and extremely uncommon in filament.
+Natural PLA on the other hand is very nearly transparent to begin with.
+Opaque materials don't work well for mixing glow pigment directly into, because they'll be blocking light from penetrating into or out from the glowing pigments mixed into it.
+That's why it's not hard to find glow-in-the-dark PLA and PETG, but it's much less common to find it in other materials unless they're stark-white and at least somewhat translucent.
+
+Glow-in-the-dark Black PLA works because they add very, very little of a distinctly black pigment. 
+Print a lightly tinted PLA like that very thin, and you can still see straight through it despite the dark pigment.
+That's why it works with the glow pigments, there's still a lot of light getting in and out of the material.
+However, black and other dark colors fucking SUCK as glow-in-the-dark materials.
+Sometimes glow-in-the-dark glitter and shit is added to them to enhance the effect, but it's trash, truly.

+
+By this retard's "logic" an aircraft with four engines is more prone to catastrophe than one with a single engine.
+
+Of course in reality one engine only supplying a portion of the power necessary to keep an aircraft aloft and there being adequate *total* power for *the entire system* to stay aloft without every engine operating makes it far less prone to catastrophe.
+
+The autistic parsing of "quadcopter" is a red herring, and numerous examples exist that disprove the idea that upscaling the number or rotors is impossible due to weight concerns, or that it is impossible to deal with emergency adjustments to flight controls to prevent a total catastrophe if a single rotor in a mutltirotor system fails.
