So I got P2V+ and fell in love with it after the first flight.
I was enjoying it for about two days relaying on the return home feature makig sure that it always have home GPS position recorded.
What I didn't realised is that it can lose GPS reception during flight.
So I was flying it above some trees and lost it out of my sight then few seconds later it got out of range.
I wasn't really bothered by that as I was sure it will return to me within seconds but coming home message didn't appear on the screen of my phone then I started to worry.
I could hear it buzzing few more seconds and then it went silent.
At that point it was obvious that I've lost it.
I was looking for it couple hours a day for three days then I gave up.
So I went and bought another P2V+ hoping that it will help me locate the lost one but had no luck.
I actually found a place where my phone was connecting to WiFi range extender and according to the manual it will only connect to it if the range extender is connected to the aircraft.
Unfortunately I couldn't find it anyway.
Newer mind as I got another one now and I'm loving it.
I've done aluminium foil mod and since then my P2V+ didn't lose GPS signal even once.
