I can fully understand the signal not being able to pass through the ground and certain objects. However with this in mind, how are people managing to reach the top end of the distance allowed - I mean, do they not experience a undulation in ground or perhaps a block of other sorts?
There are at least a couple of ways to fly with no obstructions (buildings, hills, etc.) between you and the aircraft:
- Fly in an area that's flat and where there are no tall obstacles. This is one reason you'll see a lot of people posting about having flown over bodies of water.
- Position yourself in an elevated location, such as on or near the highest point in the area (e.g., at the top of a hill).
Also, you can often improve reception / distance by increasing the altitude of the aircraft itself, though of course your ability to do that legally will typically be limited by the regulations / laws applicable for the location in which you're flying.
