Range

[UpLift Aerial]

Lately I've been experiencing a lack of range with my P3P. I would get like 200m and 50m and going up higher. away or less and it would say week signal. Antennas were upright. At one point I just about lost signal. I could see the drone and hear it. What could be causing that? Would it be the temperature? It was maybe -8°c or higher. I've flown in colder before. I have never experienced this before. What the heck is going on??

Dji do not recommend flying below 0c. However, that temp wouldn't make any difference to the distance to the degree you're experiencing. Where are you flying? Have you flown in that area before without an issue?

I'm flying at my house. I'v always flown at my house, I haven't had a chance to fly it anywhere else.

First thing I'd do is go try elsewhere, just in case you have new local interference issues?

Also, the video feed on my tablet glitches/is choppy. When I re-watch it after flight in the app it is a little like that at times.

I presume you mean on your app? That's losing the downlink signal that causes that, so it's normal.

But it never did any of this before.

As I said Tyson, it could be a new local area of interference. The only way you'll know if there is a local issue or its something with the AC, is to try it elsewhere. Make sense?

Oh. Yep makes sense. So I'll try flying some place else.
