Thanks mate.
I don't think it is but will be good if you can confirm.

Thanks mate. I don't won't to come across like 'Bull Dog' LOL as it's a minor glitch but does need to be fixed as I like to use POI as much as I like to recenter my gimbal in a split second with the C button - not good having to choose which one to keep...

Yep The first one was taken when my MA was 1.231 miles from my position as a range test - 6500' or 1.98KM away. The MA can do it. I lost signal soon after that shot and it returned perfectly in failsafe RTH. Test passed. My range was that far that these are actually two different courses captured on the same flight!

Great and congratulations although very slightly beyond VLOS then ;-). But I trust it was for a vessel safety test only.

It was mate - not one to fly that far normally but all over green fields in a safe to fly zone. So won't be doing it again for sure but with so much complaint about poor signal on the forum I wanted to see for myself. Well, my total flight distance on one battery was 17,602 feet which lasted 18 minutes, 20 seconds and I reached the advertised 2KM range. RTH worked perfectly with no glitches, drift, or sudden yaw turns or compass errors. All flight modes performed perfectly (except POI which I didn't try for the reasons you know about). I also hit 43.4MPH in Sport mode the other day so overall, the MA has totally passed my expectations.

WOW, that was a true record result then, sincere congratulations! The maximum I have driven my MA so far was 1.000 meters, also for one test only and since it was absolutely stable and well connected, that was enough for me to know about its reliability for my purposes which are much shorter range.

500m is normally far enough so if you get 1KM with no real issues with the signal then you know you've got a good un'

Exactly, and this is clearly the case with my one (although being from first production batch).

Do you know how to check when your drone was made by the serial number?

So Buddy just to confirm, I have used the Samsung S8 on the Go4 app V 4.2.20 today. Used POI and Active track and when came out of it used the C1 button to check battery status and it all works so issues are iphone related only. Auto focus on C2 also worked fine no issues

Thanks for doing that mate - it is definitely an iOS issue then - that makes a change!
