Been taking it easy because just got it flying again after burning out motor in crash (my fault).
So far furthest I've gone is about 2400 feet at 400 feet altitude (stock attenae) before getting into red. Have always stopped before auto RTH.
Here are a couple screenshots from around 2050 feet. Will try to push it later.

3,700ft at 275ft using antennas from an old Linksys wireless router. Limited, in my area to less than 1,000ft with stock antennas.
Wow Jerry, I would have said the Solo would have never flown below home point alt. I would have guessed it would have shut off the motors. Thanks for sharing. BTW, congrats on almost a mile.5738', all lower than home point altitude. Lots of breakup in video feed but good control signal. Out in the boonies with little or no interference. Very fortunate.

Got it. That clears it "up."Bald,
Slight correction. The home point is my highest ground. Everything to the east of me is lower than home point at the ground. The bird wasn't below home point all of the ground on the run was. Sorry for the confusion.

It appears to be the same all over mate.In the UK it's a legal requirement to be in direct visual contact with a UAV at all times during a flight. Are the rules different in other parts of the world?
