"A couple questions......
Why are you getting out of the business?

"Vid is private"
"I run basic Bluebeams where I'm at and I get 2km without a glitch in the city"
"Just search YouTube and there are plenty of vids of people flying behind buildings with fixed wings at high speed without any trouble. I'll post one for you of my stuff if you want"
"And I don't use diversity or directional antennas usually. Just CPs"
"It sounds like the problem is with your setup then. I run the same vtx/rx on two different quads and I have none if the trouble you describe. I regularly cruis at 40mph without any cutout at all.

"Made it out today for the veterans day parade. Was going to bring my 550 but wanted to screw with the new Phantom. The biggest thing I noticed was how much I've gotten used to flying with a gimbal...filming without one is really tough without a lot…"
"~10 years of RC everything. Mainly planes and 1/8 buggies though. Have a couple hexas but don't fly them regularly. Bought the phantom to see how the rtf setups compare to my homemade, hobbyist grade stuff. Price dropped to $450 on amazon the other…"
"Low profile? I draw massive attention. I mean anyone who see's one of these flying is going to ask questions--they always do. I've been flying for years and that's still the most bothersome part of this for me--being badgered with questions every…"
