Ok,
So I got the p3s a few months back,, firstly as I only wanted a few hundred meters range, and didn't need 4K.
So first flight I could only get about 80m out at about 30m high before RTH kicked in,
So I did a some research, tried multiple devices, ( iPad mini, iPad, xiaomi note 4, iPhone 6, iPhone 8, Motorola G4, aspera r8) really any friends phone I could test on I tried, and all with similar range results (yes beginner mode is off, logged in and out multiple times, re uploaded firmware and installed Dji go multiple times, and range is set to 300m each)
So I did the magikmod, wich made small gains, then added an windsurfer and I finally got almost 300m out and 110m high before it would lose rc signal and the RTH kicks in,
I've sent it back to Dji under warranty as it was just hopeless to fly within eye sight with out RTH kicking in (especially if the wind surfer fell off), they sent it back, and it was exactly the same,
So I went to hell with it, Argteck here I come, hoping it would at least get me 2/300m range as Dji support was hopeless, and kept taking me in circles via emails and there repairs,
But this mod gave me no increase what so ever, I even unscrewed the 3x antennae and flew it with out them, it honestly almost got the same distance with just the wires connected up.
Also flew using lithciApp and had Similar range,
So I'm assuming there is an issue in the Quad itself, or the actual RC inside somewhere, I would be willing to get it repaired locally and pay someone to test it for themselves (in Australia). If anyone knows a place that they recommend
Anyway any help would be great,,
