I have been flying from my house for quite a while now. A month or so ago I was about 1700 feet away and received a warning for Signal Interruption To Aircraft Signal Interruption May Be
More Likely. I have not seen it for a while and last night I went straight up to take a sunset shot and got the warning at 250 feet. This morning again to take a sunrise it hit me at 40 feet went away and at 170
feet I got the warning and it disconnected. The AC returned to home as it should and on the way down I regained control. I have a cell tower about 3,500 feet away and a new one I hadn't seen about a mile away.
Can cell towers interfere with our signal, and if so I wonder why it never did before when at altitude? What else may do that? I am flying a Mavic Air and using an iPad mini 4. Can the iPad interfere with the signal when straight up, and would you have to lean the iPad back so the antennas have a line of sight? A lot of questions, hoping someone may have experienced this.
