Don't let the self righteous guys bother you. Over half of this form flies beyond VLOS all the time, but they do it safely by the most part, minimizing risk as best possible. In your case on the farm there's very little risk, versus others taking more risk in town. I'm still itching to setup a Litchi autonomous flight that loses connection with the RC, flying behind a mountain to capture a secluded lighthouse, then coming back. Although this flight would be 100% over water, and 2 miles away, it's still something I've never tried to do, but intend too in the next couple of months. This will help me really grasp the capabilities of Litchi in unique situations. I've use Litchi a year now, never had an issue, it's been pretty reliable. However, I've never flown far away, enough to disconnect the control link during a waypoint mission, and then wait for it to return to reconnect later. DirtyBird does this all the time, he's the master.
