Lost signal

[John Gibson]

Hi, just flew 3 times today and every time I reached 1200 away I got a lost signal message. Any ideas?

Ummm...don't fly so far?
Can't really see any of the flight path terrain from the photo posted.

I would have thought 1200 ft was acceptable. Terrain was open fields at 150ft height.

If there is something your near that is either blocking the signal in the direction your flying or some other source of interference, that may not be obvious, your range will be limited. Even if you flew here before and had better range, there still could be some change that's causing signal loss. Try another more clear location and see if the problem clears up.

Sometimes you do have to gain some height to keep signal past 1500 ft if you do not have a good line of sight.

Was that in all directions or just one in particular?

Hi thanks for replies. I was flying away at the time. I will try a new location and at a higher height
