Ok, I have a modded P3 remote that I've used solely since I bought the P4. I have a brand new never even used P4 remote (I did charge it and turn it on with RTH activated (so it doesn't shut off) to cycle the battery, and NOT leave it charged up. I did this so maybe the guy buying it off me if I sell it has a good start and good battery cycling.
So, I'll will charge it, doing it right now, and I'll see how far it goes vs my Itlite mod, tomorrow supposed to be awesome for flying here, <3knot winds all day. I'll do it thru the trees, and over the lake. Give me a couple days and I'll post.
You may remember (doubt it though) I stated I wasn't enamored with the setup either, but I am satisfied. I have been about a mile away with full signal on my P4, and that's really plenty for me in my area, I would like to add amps, I feel like I should be able to get 1/2 what DJI promises at least, and not worry about signal loss.
I had my first signal loss the other day at 2500 feet, but it was through trees and other obstacles, so it didn't bother me, the other thing is the bird did what it was supposed to, and within 20-30 seconds the signal came back, went to turn around and reduce distance, but it looked funny, I realized the bird was already well on its way back. (Prolly 100m closer when it regained signal.
