    Transmitter antenna(s)? Does it have any?

    I have an original Mini that has 2 flat blade antennas. My wife bought me the Mini 2 at Costco, but I don't see blade type, or other antennas. Are they hidden away, or not present? I checked the quick-start, and manual and don't see reference to adjustable antennas. Thanks in advance.

    Losing connection with drone.

    Thanks for your suggestions regarding turning off wi-fi and bluetooth. I had not turned them off on my phone, or on the iPad mini once I started using it for display. No - not in a heavily wooded area, but there are tall trees in the area potentially partially blocking the signal. The...

    Losing connection with drone.

    I'm am new to drones. Flying a MM and was using an Android phone, now using iPad mini 5th gen. The one common element is that we lose connection with the drone on each flight, usually at 500-1000' away, always LOS (no physical interference). We've always established a connection again, but...
