Mavic Pro - Observation regarding range

[anom3]

New Mavic Pro owner here, long time quad pilot though...

I have noticed something regarding the range / video quality on the Mavic pro, maybe someone can confirm.

The slower the quad flies (horizontal speed), the better the signal quality. Anyone else observe this?

I have yet to take it out some really long distances, but at 1750M I noticed the following:

P Mode + Obstacle detection = Crystal clear video signal, zero "skipped" frames.
P Mode - Obstacle detection = Starts to get a bit iffy. Nothing major, but lost frames every few seconds.
Sport Mode = Any time a sharp move is made there is visible degradation in video signal.

Anyone agree / notice the same?

I wonder if this is due to the angle of the craft, interference caused by the additional load on the ESCs or a power delivery related (more RPM on the props)? Maybe a combination of the above?

I think the antennas are in the vertical part of legs - on vertical polarisation.
If it's tilting at 45 degrees it won't work quite so well in the same way as holding controller wrong has a marked effect.
With Obstacle detection on it goes slower which explains that part
