Not quite sure to be honest, prob is the same, at the top of DJI Go app screen are 2 signal strength meters, one for the HD (video quality strength) and one for the Radio between drone and RC, the 1st to falter is always the HD signal, so i think that video being tansmitted can only go so far compared to radio transmission, take TV masts i bet they are much more powerful than radio masts, thats a guess mind lol
"1st to falter is always the HD signal"
Sorry to correct you, often but not always ... Here are screenshot from last summer where i was quick enough to have it grabbed. Also notice that strength is reported being full.
Aircraft disconnected within 240 meters
I also experience that some days are better than other but i can't see the pattern of being related to cloudy/moisty days, i actually had a vey good range (impressive 800m !) one day with dark clouds and snow started falling during the flight.
One thing is sure, now the juice is back in the trees just a branch in the way can make the video flicker even at short distance.
