Hi !
When testing range (CE, not FCC) i was trying out 10 MHz bandwidth today with much better success.
(3000m@50m vs 1500m@50m 2 days before with 20 MHz, exactly same flight, i follow a road at set Altitude, some groups of trees in between).
As i know that humidity and other weather conditions play a major role i will have to verify that when i have enough time to make the two flights directly after each other so that is yet unconfirmed.
Although one expects more range with smaller bandwidth this seems a bit drastic.

But the real reason i post this: On the way back the Mavic reconnected quickly but reception was much worse then before. I guess the Antennae are in the back, so the Copter was blocking, could this be, did anyone else observe this ?

AND i tried to cancel RTH several times, always "greeted" with "Failed to cancel RTH" (or alike).
It finally worked at 1500m@50m!
Anyone knows why ? Failed because of bad signal ? Any other parameter i do not know ?

Greetings,

Ender
