    Started flying my P3 std for the first time in a few years and the range is terrible.

    I'm wondering if my P3 std has lost range due to the 1.9.20 firmware that it has in it. I never tried to upgrade the firmware, I've always read to leave it alone and I've always had great altitude and distance. Yesterday, first time flying in 2 years, the distance is terrible - barely 1,000...

    Do large metal objects mess with the compass during flight? After calibration.

    Ok, I'll take a chance. Is that a real photo of a train? I've never seen anything like that. So many engines in a row, seems crazy! Can you help me understand what that's all about?

    ARGTEK YES OR NO ONLY PLEASE

    Yes, I really like Arg Tec. The install took me an hour, but I took my time, referenced the youtube installation video twice, and am very happy with the install and the results. My controller antenna cables were not the same color scheme as the Arg Tech, that's why I had to look at the video a...
