    P3S - lost connection at only 250m

    Tried the same flight again with the antenna pointed up and easily made the 500m. Great advice for any new pilot, thanks again! Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    P3S - lost connection at only 250m

    Thanks for the input! I will mind how i hold the controller so its pointing at the drone when distance. Its a very narrow lake (300 meters across and about 2.5 km long, its used for rowing championships actually) with trees on each side. Makes for a sweet fly over. I will check the wind surfer...
