I'm wondering what you guys do when you lost signal, and the screen goes dark?

Had that happen to me today as I try to test the limits. I kind of panicked when the screen turned black and white.. And hit return to home until I got the feed back. But that was unnerving.

What do you guys do? And is the a way to push the phantom after losing signal to get the extra distance? I tried playing with antenna positions to no avail.
 
Depends on the situation. If I'm flying for range I just keep the throttle all the way forward and see if it comes back.

If I'm zipping around at lower altitudes and lose signal, I hit RTH immediately so I gain altitude and don't unknowingly fly into anything low.
 
If you have los bring it home...
 
Screen turns black and white .... Pants turn brown ... Hit RTH and clean myself up!

Happened to me beyond LOS. Map still worked. Manually brought it back.
