I have to say being new to Drones but having done quite a bit of research I am still a little confused when it comes to this.  The included non smart controller that comes with the Air 2S has 4 antennas and the (lets hope) soon to be compatible DJI RC smart remote has (from what I understand) 2 antennas.  Does this have anything to do with flying range or Video Transmission range?  Just a newbie looking in 4 sounds better then 2, no?

OK Duhh??  After relooking at the Air 2S features it looks the drone itself has 4 antennas to pick up the signal not the RC.  Any expectation on if using the DJI RC controller you will get better flying range then the standard RC.  Thanks!

Do you want to fly very, very far? Do you have enough battery power to fly there, shoot and return?

Hello there Snook911. Good day and thank you for reaching out. Just a reminder to please fly your DJI Air 2S to a location with less interference and please make sure that the antennas or your DJI RC ( https://www.dji.com/rc?site=brandsite&from=nav ) are pointed toward the DJI Drone for optimal transmission as well. Thank you.

Hello, I don't think I need to fly very very far but in some locations with my Air 2S I only get about 1300 ft. before the signal starts to get lost and that's with a range extender.  Just wanted to get some thoughts on whether or not range could be increased with DJI RC smart controller VS the standard RC.
