Yes, when flying in my neighborhood this happens sometimes (behind trees, etc). However, I don't worry too much because I know that my RTH height is set correctly for the area. Biggest problem is people not realizing how tall stuff really is and once that RTH kicks in and clearly not LOS, perhaps you didn't realize there was a 90ft oak tree in that guy's back yard. Just think before you fly and it'll be easier on the nerves. And trust in the bird... these P3's are so far ahead of the P2's I rarely worry about it not coming home if I go out too far. have fun!
RTH is a critical part of learning to fly a Phantom.Admittedly I'm still a wimp with it because I don't want to lose it our crash it and I'm not 100% comfortable with its abilities .....
Do you ever have situations where your signal goes from 4 bars to nothing and you can't get it back?
Just not sure what to expect.
44.000 ft out and back, no prob. Stock RC of course.View attachment 37011
Yes I did.You flew it over the ocean just to see how far it would go?
The farthest I've gone is 2.12 miles. But I was nervous the whole way considering I lose visual contact about 1/10 of that distance.
Man your brave over water too.44.000 ft out and back, no prob. Stock RC of course.View attachment 37011
