Youthman,
You are flying over homes and your home point appears to very near some homes and trees that would potentially block signal path even though your aircraft was at 324 feet altitude when you lost signal. As DJI-Ken noted, homes have lots of WiFi devices and then there are cell towers, etc.
I do a lot of long distance flying. Today on the latest 1.1.410 firmware and DJI GO app version 2.8.3 in completely unobstructed rural farmland, I confirmed that the P4 range is absolutely amazing. Using only a $30 parabolic antenna reflector on my otherwise stock P4, I was able to fly out to max. distance of 27,046 feet (5.1 miles, 8.2 km) and still had 4 bars HD Link and control signal levels! Never had a single loss of video image, pixelation or loss of control signal. I turned around at 65% battery level.
Search for my post on best practices and optimal DJI GO app settings to achieve reliable signal levels at long distances. |
