Losing Signal

I have been using my Phantom 1 for about 2 mos now without any problems. All of a sudden it will now lose the signal and go into safe mode at around 50 feet. Fresh batteries and still the same problem. It will go through its setup program as usual. Finds the satellites then just blinks green. As it gets outside of the 50-75 foot range it will start to blink yellow and go into the failsafe mode. I can usually recover it when it gets within that range and I turn OFF then ON the GPS switch.
Any suggestions as what could have gone wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Try making sure the orientation of the controller is out and about a 45 degree angle. 2 o'clock.

How old are the batteries on the controller....?

Look at my controller I put in a digital voltage reader so that I know when too replace the batteries, before the controller starts beeping
which is not cool while in flight. As the phantom will come home and blinks yellow.

one of those things... All is cool when 20 to 30 feet away but at 100 no more signal.
