Hello all. So I took my new p3p for a spin today and wanted to see the real comparison to my standard. I got 8k from same spot with my standard so I was thinking surely I will hit 20k with the pro. Then It happened. At about 12k feet out and 68% power left I got message battery is low. Come home. I could have kept going but I got chicken. Funny thing is. I had head wind going out about 15mph. Could only get about 31mph in speed. And I knew it would be tail wind coming back. Anyway. I just came back without going the distance as it was scared. It actually arrived back with 48% power. What gives? Is it because of wind ? How do I ignore this warning? Also on the return trip it was only moving 25mph on its own. So I hit the throttle and it got up to 39.1 mph. So it returned relatively fast. Any advice from the pros how I can achieve the 20k ft distance without being scared it will drop out the sky. I think it took off at about 94% batterie. I also used goggles the first flight so no flight log recorded with the fpv app. 2nd trip I used dji go app and also go 12k feet but got warning again. Not sure how to push it so far or maybe it was just the wind? Any advice welcomed.
