WOOOOOO-HOOO! What a flight! I have been flying this same field since I got my P3S and knew I have several miles of direct LOS. So far I've had her out to .7 mi. So tonight I said what the hell, let's see what this girl can do. So I took her up to 250 ft and let it rip. 25 MPH alllll the way out to one mile! Actually, 5,425 ft. The shocking part as I still had full signal on video and remote the whole way. When I got out to a mile I figured I better turn around, my curiosity had been settled. For some reason I started losing signal when I turned around but quickly regained it and flew her home manually. Had to fight a headwind/crosswind combination on the way back but still had 65% battery when I got it back. Based on Dji saying the Standard has a .42 mi range, I'm pretty friggin impressed. Sometime soon I'll have to try it again at maybe 400' and see how much further I can get.
