Can anyone tell me if the MP1 controller and aircraft will still sync at distance? IE, can I fly out to see a mate at maximum visual range, land, and they change the battery? Then power it back up. Will it sync?

Yeah, thinking like photography of a mate who’s climbing a mountain. Especially if cold and poor battery life! Maybe even delivering something small.perhaps... IF you have LOS the whole time.... like in a flat barren desert or land on an elevated area where LOS is preserved.
I have successfully used the technique of landing, without powering off, on a spot above me and at distance in order to reset TO altitude so I could see over a mountain (ie fly higher absolutely than I could from original TO). Be careful... lose VLOS on landing and someone will have to retrieve the drone.Yeah, thinking like photography of a mate who’s climbing a mountain. Especially if cold and poor battery life!

Interesting idea!There was a video ages back of a guy in Asia somewhere who kept landing on top of higher and higher buildings, disconnecting and then reconnecting at each step as a way to break the 120m ceiling limit.
So yeah it should be possible, but you might want to test it before risking it!

Also, did this reset ‘return to home”? I guess then you make the controller ‘home’?I have successfully used the technique of landing, without powering off, on a spot above me and at distance in order to reset TO altitude so I could see over a mountain (ie fly higher absolutely than I could from original TO).

.... that makes ”home” the location of the controller at that instant in timeAlso, did this reset ‘return to home”? I guess then you make the controller ‘home’?
Yep. That’s what I meant. If you didn’t, and something went wrong, it’d return home to some mountain ledge/roof etc.!.... that makes ”home” the location of the controller at that instant in time
