As the header is saying:

How is your experience with the .701 firmware?
Is the Range better, less or equal to .600

I hope that the DJI Go 4 version is not important for this test. But we will see about that later, I think

I would like to see the results so far but I haven't flown yet with the new FW and don't want to taint the results.

I took the  chance to fly the .701 in FCC for a range test.
EDIT: DJI Go 4 - 4.1.10, OTG
("No latest version detected", yet)
Did the same spot, I flew  2 days ago  with .600
Got about the same result with about the same height.
Changed the direction, flew higher (as 2 days ago), did hit the 2000m.
Equal to me, it looks.

Did you switch back to .600?
And would you start wit .600, where you started with the .701?
You are flying high, but that seems to be a massive concrete flyover in your course.
I would really be interested how that goes witn .600

Hi I did a run with .600 firmware and .701 firmware last night. The theory is that Aust. is on CE mode but it seems strange because i can still get good distance
600 went 10842ft
.701 went 11243ft battery power was a little higher at the start
And i have no idea how to put pictures in here

mmmhhh, 11000 feet would not really feed the CE theory, methinks.
so lets talk about your hacks, then ;-)

10km with one batterie?
Can't imagin that!
