Final update.......Drone back in the sky.......everything functioning normally.....one very relieved pilot Thank you to all that helped

Hi Folks Just a quick update - the drone was recovered this morning - it had drifted about 20m beyond the last recorded gps point on the return to home flight path No physical damage Need to let it dry out fully (possible water damage due to rain) before starting it up Many thanks for all your help

Thank you for the work done On the map when u look at the log the landing spot appears about 200m west of the lat long coords that you extracted We need to widen our search area a litte Cheers

I will put one one it......if I find it lol

No probs Snow is making it difficult to spot if its on the ground Hopefully tomorrow will bring more luck

Nah......the wind was from the east and flight was from east to west (wind was behind us on outbound flight) Agree with the trees west of the last recorded point though

Many thanks for the ideas everybody

Clever Many thanks for the idea

Can the Jellyfish mount be got in Amazon.Co.UK? I dont seem to be able to find it Failing that, what are people in the UK using for 7" tablets in Ireland/UK?? Cheers

Well the latest update on the range is that I pushed out 1150m (and still had loads of signal left) using a home made parabolic reflector. Followed the instructions in another thread (see below) on Phantom Pilots and was amazed at results. DIY Antenna Booster for Phantom 3

Just to update I turned off the "Max Distance" and managed to push it to 750m but kept loosing vision on it due to white clouds behind it.....therefore very difficult to keep the aerial pointing exactly in the right direction. When I was pointing in the right direction I still had about 50% signal

Found it and turned it off - will play later and see what happens Cheers

Pure curiosity to be honest Also pure lazyness - there is a field about 700m from my house, the owner of which has some amazing machinery for crop care.......looking forward to getting a closer look without going out for a walk lol
