UK flyer, decided to go for a long flight. This is how far my phantom got. 2.6 miles full video had to turn round for battery reasons. But on the way back lost reception for some reason and my bird flew home. A bit of arse nipping for a bit though. View attachment 29188

Arse nipping... Gotta remember that gem.

Line of sight down valley.........an astounding 19,061 ft, or 3.6 miles. No joke. Without the parabolic wind surfer antenna attachment I got 15'000+.

Was able to reach 9900ft last time and I think I was able to do more

Great stuff guys, but can 21,000 ft etc be put into miles please.

Miles - tick
Kilometers - tick
Meters - tick

Feet - do one!

Btw - my world record is 55118 inches or 1.4km... sounds more impressive in inches?

5.1km with the dbs full signal out and back.

I'm only a newbie to the P3 so excuse my ignorance but if you send out your drone to the point of losing video feed, how do you ensure you are flying it back to yourself? I rely in the video to ensure I'm pointing it in the right direction.

Have a look at the map & arrow direction, that is better than any fpv feed.

About 3600 ft. Haven't been able to get out of the city and push it to the limits yet

rmfa · Sep 1, 2015

I'm a touch over 3 miles then back. This is all bone stock. I did this over water as to not "endanger" anyone.

BigKenny · Sep 1, 2015

3.25 miles. I could have gone further, but was worried about getting back. From my back yard, over land, all stock.

IOIIOOO · Sep 1, 2015

17,500 feet out is my current record on stock.

moswissa · Sep 1, 2015

is the antenna directional like the phantom 2? my p2 can't rotate without losing connection when its 800ft out. i can send it out sideways are hit 1600ft lol
