New personal record! 10200 feet! With just parabolic extenders. I usually only get 3000 feet but this was unreal. And I was on 5.8 GHz.View attachment 48987View attachment 48987

Nice flight Alex, I have placed you 11th on the modded section of the board. Please inform me of what brand of Parabolic extenders you used so that I can add the update to your status.
Thanks,

Thanks,

I had the threeking extender on. I’m getting a 4 hawks raptor sr next week so we’ll see how far I go then.

Alex, may I ask which parabolic extenders you are using?

I got 10,350 (one way) at 350ft altitude low wind on stock antennas. I landed with 8% battery. The battery is what limits this drone.

Well, us poor Eurpoeans are signally disadvantaged thanks to the CE signal restrictions.... yet managed this today... Into the wind and returning with the wind... 1800 metres out... which surprised me immensely...

Oh yes, I know of the spoofing GPS apps. Have to say that I've had rock solid signal to way beyond 2 miles and I personally don't have any need to go beyond that. But to be truthful, I have a fundamental problem spoofing the GPS location on a drone that uses my phone's GPS location to set its home point....

Hey mrparish! Welcome, nice flight. The distance we go by here is a straight line from your controller to the bird. You actually only got 9149.8 ft.

A very nice attempt at the top 20, however is a bit short. You may try to give it another go to possibly take the 20th spot which is 3777M.
Your posted flight is only 3705M. Good luck on the next run!

Thanks, I went back to see but I must of missed it.

What area did you fly from ?

Sorry been super busy the last 3 weeks!
This was our off of Ellsworth... sketchy road and I don’t really suggest making attempts there because of the traffic.

I’m searching better locations

Perhaps you should try reading the whole thread. You would see that no one has lost or crashed their Mavic Air.

This isn’t a challenge for the weak, I suggest they fly a kite

Way less than people just trying to fly in their own back yards!!!

My kite has a picture of a DJI Mavic Air on it!

If at first you don't succeed at long range, order another aircraft. [emoji23]
