Oh, we have more new rules... this is so silly that they don't make it obvious... I can't help but notice that this seems to be titled for FPV flights?
If this voids your warranty then their warranty sucks ... all it allows is for the VIDEO to go for a longer range than the controller is set up to allow, this isn't even guaranteed either, it depends on the channel you choose. It's no different than choosing a custom channel anyways ...
I was told when I called CAA that it is mainly down to being sensible and not being dangerous, even they couldn't tell me on the phone what it meant as such. I think the fact that there is a video showing the distance travelled and the fact that there is another with the drone above the clouds...

The 400ft LAW is only for UAV over 7kg according to this
This is what I mean, there is nothing 100% guaranteed. The 400ft "rule" is only ever on the "advisory" bits
The law you broke on the range test I believe is the line of sight law.
However the 400ft rule I don't believe is LAW but only advisory , the actual LAWS are so grey it is unreal, they all seem to be suggestions rather than RULES ! ,
