    Range problem

    Took off again today. This time from a beach on the coast. I was able to fly over 16,000 ft away and still had a steady stream and 3 bars on the RC. I probably could've kept going but the return flight was against the wind and I wasn't going to risk it. I guess I can rule out hardware...

    Range problem

    Thank you very much for the well though out response. The drone was launched from a position with no visible obstructions in line of sight. As far as I know, there aren't any cell or radio towers close by. Unfortunately I don't know any drone owner s that could assist with a test swap so if...

    Mavic Pro-2 vs Zoom and P4P - Line Skipping + Sensor Heat?

    Wether or not anyone is happy with the existing performance of the M2P, we should analyze, critique we should hold DJIs feet to the fire and push for peak performance on this product. I don't understand how some are so willing to just accept the flaws that have been observed. I like to think...

    Range problem

    Is there a way to see a log of this in the flight data?

    Good idea. Will try this

    Range problem

    I've tried both without much change. This test was in auto (dual)

    Range problem

    Certainly a possibility. I still expected longer range tho, especially after hearing reports of 15k+ flights and seeing videos suggesting same. One video showed a guy that far out in a dense city environment.
