[QUOTE="Xygote, post: 58712, member: 12129"] Hello Guys, I started using a drone in 2009 (Parrot Drone) without home return it ended up in the sea going to England (From the French coast). So I decided to invest in the spark a few months ago. After reading on many forums, I found out i needed a FAA registration, so I did it (when i'm flying in the US). Then I tried to understand where i was able to fly (I know about the NFZ 5 miles radius from an airport , city etc). I was in Miami last week and I wanted like everybody does , to fly the drone (30 feet high max) over the water. But a guy told me it was a NFZ again... I then asked the Miami Beach Police, they told me it was indeed a NFZ, but I could still use it until a cop tells me to take it down... So in the end i didnt fly it.. Ok so now back to my original question, in the USA or France, I'm using the Remote , an Ipad, the OTG cable and I realized that the video signal breaks up super fast. After max of 100 meters distance and not altitude (300 feets) i lose the video and the drone asks me to come home... In some cases i was in front of the ocean in France with nothing in front, how can it be THAT bad? Is there something i'm doing wrong? Since I'm pretty disapointed on the max distance, i was wondering if I should go for the Mavic Pro platinum. I was wondering what was the real difference between those 2, and just like the guy who chases cruse ships in Miami, if i could go far away (where it's legal) without losing the video signal... Thanks for your help. [/QUOTE]
