No signal

[Twinnny_twinnn]

So today I did my second flight decided to do it at home. Sent the drone up and flew about 670ft. Then I had no signal. Found that to be very awkward.
Was it that I am in the city?
I wasn't pointing the remote towards the drone?
Or could it be that I was surrounded by houses n buildings?
Going to try again this is what I don't like not having more than one battery.

try going in different directions see if you get same results I get more going north but less going south in crowded neighborhood

Did you let it go behind any buildings or could you see it the whole time? Do as flpholt said and try different directions.

It's too much interference in my neighborhood maybe if I was on top of a building or higher grounds it would work. I was a nervous reck throughout the flight lost signal three times.

At some point you are going to have to trust your instruments. In other words fpv. I have stopped looking at the drone all together. I find t more enjoyable as to look at my iPad only. Sure. It's in visual range for about the first 500 feet. After that. All bets off and I don't even try. The telemetry is good and I can see exactly why my drone is doing. So I no longer fear it bring out of visual range.

What do you mean by no signal, did it just lose video or did it lose RC connection? Did it RTH?

When it happens to me I got 10 feet hire until I get signal again always works. Give it time you'll love going far after awhile!!

There looks like there was a lot of house near u. Definitely bring it up to around 400ft and I bet it will work fine.

Bad flight location is the likely culprit


Phantom 3 Pro / iPad Air 2

I am getting the same problem! After about 10 seconds in the air i get the 'No Signal' message at the top (instead of safe to fly)
