This is gonna be fun! (Distance tests)

i think I'm pretty much maxed out going in the same direction 2.3-2.4 miles, can't make it any further, but thats pretty good, I really do need to pick a different route LOL

I don't know how much of a different angle you can change. I change my angle like 45degrees and was getting a better range.
I west heading straight west and started flying west by Southwest and got out farther.
 
hey tony does your signal just drop and trigger RTH or can you slowly start seeing the bars drop? Also do you fly until RTH hits or do you turn around when you start getting red?
 
My wife sends me this pic..damnit i want to go home now!

RF meter? Aren't they kinda pricey?
 
I didn't get the big fancy ones...I got the Immersionrc rf power meter. I read good reviews and really wanted to try it...you can test tx power, antennas, cables. If it's not great I can return. It's pretty cool check it out

before that driver leaves with anything I would have that box open and a fully charged battery in it flying it to make sure. If it does not. Damage take it back.
Don't know if you can do that .
