Any videos out there breaking the 4 mile mark?

waiting for someone to push the distance with the Mavic. Please post links if they exist.

Maybe not many that want to try with the new bird until they are completely sure that its rock solid.

If I could get one I can do a long range test. I hope to have one for Thanksgiving weekend.

That would be great. I have seen a few range tests on youtube, but wasn't convinced. They looked fake; no real evidence they were actually flying a Mavic or even owning a Mavic. at that time only select few had pre-production models so I wasn't buying it.

I totally understand. When the P4 came out a lot of people complained of shorter range. I was able to fly out over 3 miles without issue. Had to turn around since the battery was getting low. I was actually one of the first to break the 3.5 mile mark with the P4.

I hope the new control system works as advertised. I like the additional range over the P4, not necessarily to fly it out that far but to work better in "non optimal" locations.... I flew my stock P4 close to 4 miles when I first got it. That was in an excellent location though.
