Have you thought about using an amp on at least your 5.8 ghz control antenna and possibly using another amp on one the 2.4 ghz wifi antenna

Have you tried flying higher maybe 450' feet ? How is your aiming ? Have you tried an app that has a wifi wand. I know you're still getting solid fpv but it might help with the aiming. I know I have trouble keeping an eye on my bird and screen at the same time
