Phantom 3S Video Transmission

[betabilly]

I understand the P3S lacks any option for manually changing the 2.4 gig video channel in the GO app yet it can auto-scan and adopt a less populated channel other than the default channel 13. Does this auto-scan only occur during the linking process on start up or can the auto-scan occur any time during an actual flight? Just wondering why I have momentary video dropouts at odd intervals when flying. For example, if I lose video and immediately stop and hover in a wifi congested area, the video always comes back within a couple seconds.

From what I understand in my 'research' Beta is that it 'surfs' channels as it flies. I'm in a wifi congested area also and you may also be experiencing that the stop and turn adjusts 'where' the on-board antenna is pointing. I'm still new at this and as I always tell my wife, I don't know everything even when you think I do.

I was looking for a post that stated the signal from the Phantom is on a WiFi, but 1 channel is live video, and the other was telemetry,

I gave up but I can't imagine they would be changing channels automatically after take off.
Here is some more info from the past.

Question about Radio, uplink, downlink, frequency, & telemetry

Lost signal (but not really)
