Thank you all for your kind reply. Finally I realized that I was flying too close to other houses: I was flying in my backyard, and there are houses all around me. I think it is a simple geometry problem: close-by houses blocked the signal! I went out to an open filed, now my range increased to about 2000 ft, not ideal, but it is already much better than flying in my backyard. Also, it seems putting the transmission mode from auto to manual helped.
Get a ladder and climb onto the roof to fly your Mini. I do that a lot when flying at my home, except I am sitting on the boathouse roof ;-)
