Have you got any range limitations set in the app
Are you logged into the app, Rangel limitation applies if not.
Did you have the same issues before fitting the argtek
Has the quad ever gone further ?

range limits off
same range before ARG.
sudden drop in trans signal at about 180 to 200ft
Personally I would have said that the problem is where your flying your bird. Though I am by no means an experience pilot. The reason being is that the Phantom standard works on Wifi, and with you flying close to houses, you are likely to get interference from the houses and home wifi networks. Have you tried flying in say a park or open space to see if you get the same problem?
seems abit strange, I assume the receiver on the P3s is intact and the transmitter on the remote control is connected properly?
I think something is wrong with your remote control. And that can be the connection to the antenna. Re-open the remote control and check your connections. Often a connection error occurs at the connection to the printed circuit board.
Check all connections again and (if possible) take a photo of it (so you can also give us a look through this forum).
The fault you mentioned does not just happen. There is always a cause. When I look at your video, I see that there is an antenna error. Therefore my request to make a clear photo of it.
Thank you for your photos. I think your antenna is not correctly connected. My advise to you is disconnect the connections again, clean the connections well (but always carefully) and reconnect them.Use a little of connection spray on the wire (not on the board). Then apply an insulation over the connection (using a glue pistol, for example). It is intended that the inner pins fall into each other.
450ft before signal loss, that’s not FPV as it’s still showing live feed, it’s control signal.
If it’s been like this since new then it’s a faulty quad and I would return it if you can for another.
I’ve seen a few posts from standard owners who were disappointed with range
