I couldn't agree more. All my flights that have proven my Phantom 4 are no different than the range I get from my P3 Advanced are around 290ft - 380ft in the air. That is most likely the difference. The other thing is (as I have mentioned before) that I am not in a highly populated area when I fly those distances, which myself and others have noted is a drastic improvement over doing so "in town" or wherever.

*** Sorry, to ask I have tried to install the hack on my Samsung Edge Note with no luck. Do you have any tips? Thanks
Windy that day 25 kmph and gusting. I am impressed with the stability in p mode, I live a bit out of town and I flew into the wind to make sure if the battery got low it would be easy to get back. I did not expect to come back so fast. I use imperial settings in go because metric gives your speed in meters per second, I would prefer kmph. I actually intend to do that in higher winds to see how fast it can fly.
eyecon, I had a hell of a tail wind. If I would have known that I would have gone so fast I would have put it in S mode, I was in atti! Bet I may have hit 80mph. I get strong south winds and I am sure to try again soon.
well I have just joined this forum cos I have a question but after hearing the above RANT I will go back to dji forum. Who's bitten your bumNo problems with my P4 but really starting to get tired of constant, non-stop, endless, whining threads about range and how "it's getting sent back".
Let's keep all of the above mentioned items in this thread to allow others enjoy a variety of threads without scrolling through numerous threads about the same thing.

Sorry, I have no experience installing the hack in Android. Maybe others will chime in.
The other day without widnsurfers I flew approximately 7200ft out and still had 100% signal bars and no breakup in video. I only turned back because I was too chicken to go any further in the specified area (where my folks live in the country) as the area I was approaching is a farmers land who LOVES to hate technology, and would probably take a shot or two at my P4... I wouldn't have been too happy lol

Had my 4th flight with my phantom today, I get to 1500ft and I get low signal. I am in a built up area but was expecting to get more than that.
From what I see for myself and other post location, location, location. Also for me altitude give me better distance that why I had to go to 350, the trees absorb the signal big time. I was just behind maybe 20 feet thick of spruce trees and the bird was in a field and lost signal about 1600.
So I went out to the country side today to have a flight and to see if I could improve on my flight distance. Flew to a height of 300 feet and only managed 1420 feet distance before I got the low signal warning, i noticed when i get the warning and stop the aircraft i get full signal bars, if i move off again i get the same signal warning, once again when i stop i get full signal back. I had a clean line of view with no trees, hills or signal interference. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thanks

In town, trees or not, could be signal interference on many levels. In town my signal isn't nearly as good, more remote / country settings I'm getting 11000 + feet easy.
