This was a simple tuning flight in the yard.
I've had this quad trigger failsafes in the past, but I chalked it up to poor antenna mounting. This time it is mounted well (I think), it was only about 10 ft away about head high when the issue happened.

Hi there,

Hi,
For my custom built F450 Pixhawk, I wanted to get very long range on telemetry (to send in autonomous missions and in the mean time know what is going on), so I have searched for the best (at a reasonable price) 433 Mhz antennas.
