Not really sure what kit he is using.

But this is how my setup sits minus the iphone 5s... lol

That's actually a PIII advanced remote with a V2 antenna and boosters.I don't currently have an up and running PIII standard.
I was simply sharing that if you were to put your controller on a tripod you'd be amazed by how stable you're aiming is and how easy it is to make those micro adjustments to stay on target. I believe you'll be able to get 1 to 2000 feet further simply by using a tripod for aiming. Not to mention staying on track when doing the clumsy screenshot

Thanks. I for sure have a tripod. But I use it for my iPad to film the drone when It is flying.

I have a completely stock Phantom 3 Standard and unmodified controller running the latest Firmware, using a iphone 5s.

My only mods shouldn't help range (Prop Guards, and CF Gimbal guard)

I am just curious because it seems like I may have sorta like a freak, according to my other local drone fliers, lol.

This is my personal record, 11,197 ft = 2.12 miles. I still had Video and low RF but lost it doing the the IPhone Screenshot deal with the home and power buttons.

I was flying from my back deck, 2ft high only and straight out following a road with power lines on each side.

Pretty happy with my purchase.

Thanks

That's great. I have been out a little over 9k feet stock and I'm very happy. Who wouldn't? The Standard is rated at 3280 ft (1Km). What has my attention is the low altitude you did it at. I too get much better results at low levels, but 2 feet?! Yikes.
