Well I'm inclined to say it's environmental. I just took my bird out and hit 1000m.
I guess it's the luck of the day if you get range or not. [emoji849]

Gotta be something like that. Can't explain it any other way. Unless.Well I'm inclined to say it's environmental. I just took my bird out and hit 1000m.

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And the drone wont fly far.
There was an app firmware revision a while back that had that problem. Might want to check your version and update. What do you have now?When all this started happening to me I downloaded litchi. I haven't really had time to play with it yet. While I am on the subject of things going wrong with the P3S, has anyone got any ideas on why my map shows me a little over land when I'm flying right down the middle of the river? I have done a compass calibration and an IMU calibration although both showed they were fine before the calibration.

There is still a giant elephant in this room that I need removed.
Why did my AC RTH even though my RC still indicated green (connected)?
I've experienced the same problem. Worked much better out of the box, before any firmware upgrades were made. Not much fun to play with anymore.Gonna keep this as short and sweet and hopefully the super human minds here can help.
Bought my P3S in Feb. Upgraded FW to 1.8.10 per request. Everything worked wonderfully... Range varied around 3000ft and even achieved a 4900ft with a parabolic antenna.
Come today, I can get a blazing 600ft before RTH kicks in. Its been a slow decline, but now its painfully painful.
Here are the particulars:
FW 1.8.10
GO: 3.1.10
Decline started in April
AC babied and never a hard landing, no crashes and no mods.
I do live in a high wifi area, but always have.
I fly out over the ocean from the same spot as a control to test range. Range deteriorated from just short of a mile, to 600 ft in over two months.
So, is this typical of a P3S or am I looking to send it in or am I gonna buy something better? Am I being affected by sun spots or ancient aliens? Maybe Capt. Kirk is warping off to Uranus to wipe out the Klingons? What gives?
