A UK CAA Max altitude exemption actually allows for fpv up to 1000ft provided the competent obverser has sight, less than 3.5Kg, etc. Rob.

Yes, I would like to know as well. If the answer is use an FCC compliant GPS location with an Android device then it does not work for me. Maybe there is some other way GO4 is seeing my true location? Thanks for any constructive help.

I tried to get my RTH to kick in naturally at extreme distance once but chickened out at 5 miles. Good job I did really, only just made it back with a strong headwind, 10 mile round trip. All over open countryside.

As an exact and direct comparison I checked how thirsty the new MPP blades are compared with my originals. RPM is down 10% hovering and power (current draw) is down 3%-4%. Difficult to compare long range flight times as conditions can vary so much but it does seem I am getting longer flight...

Sure, we drove within a few Km's of the summit before the exclusion zone was imposed! Rob.

Agung was pretty quiet when we were diving near it with Bali Scuba at wreck of USAT Liberty. Took some shots with my Mavic but only our home base in the south at Intercontinental Resort. Stay safe. Rob.
