I will be watching this one John. My mini 2 went out 250 feet, 10 feet above home point but it was a old bridge 100 feet high. Screen went black. Total panic but 250 away VLOS I brought it back and just as landing it came back on. It was 2 deg C. so I went back to car and warmed up. After that it was good flew 2 batteries, and then went to a view point and flew 15 minutes on the P3A. No more problems.
Before and after the latest update I've been comfortably getting 300-400m in a busy urban environment and full signal to the limits of my VLOS (and probably well beyond) in rural environments. That's on CE mode power.
