Hi!

I bought my dji phantom 4 two weeks ago and tested the flight range multiple times, however everytime i test it i can't get further then 700m...
Dji says that the dji phantom 4 can fly 6000m far.
Does anyone know how i can fix this or what i'm doing wrong?

Two of the big things is you need to be out away from all the crowded wifi signals and other signals in the band you're using (i.e. you need to fly out in rural Netherlands), and you need to aim the controller correctly.

Hope this helps.

Interference in urban areas can have a big effect on the range, where are you flying?

thnx for the response but i already tried lots of different antenna combinations and nothing works. i also can't switch the ghz to 2.4 for some reason.

Then you should contact DJI and alert them to the problem.  Good luck.
