Hi,
I have just ran a quick test on the SRC and carried out a direct comparison with the standard controller.
The test involved flying the same aircraft on the same route at the same altitude to the same point and then noting the signal strength indicators on each device.
I operate in the UK so confined to the CE powered outputs.
The test was flown with A MP Zoom, on the current firmware (.300) and using XS Max as the mobile on the standard controller App version .12. I then flew the same flight using the same aircraft linked to the SRC, its running version .10 of the App and ver .310 firmware.
The flight was carried out by taking the aircraft to 400' then flying straight out across open fields and woodland to a distance of 1880 meters. This test was over rising ground, which is why its 1880 meters as at that point we could not climb over the trees that were encountered. The flights were carried out in windless conditions at 16:30 GMT, 30 mins before sunset.
Now for the outcome!
For the remote control the remote signal strength stayed at the full 5 bars of signal strength and no loss of connection, The SRC was exactly they same, 5 bars and no weak signal messages.
For the HD video uplink, again no loss of feed back or weak signals, the standard setup was at 4 signal bars at the 1880m distance and the SRC was at 3, so a slight difference.
If any one would like to do a more in-depth analysis I can provide them with the controller files if they wish. PM me if you want them.
The flight was conducted over remote farmland, no transmitters or WiFi in the area, almost no houses, mainly Grass land and trees.
