Me and my bud were out for a flight yesterday and he wanted to follow me for some video.
I made it out 1.1 K with a solid video link. He was using his P3 Advanced and lost video at about 800m.

I didn't want to go any further as to pass the highway.
 
The color looks very different between the P3 and the H. Did you have a preset in the camera for either one?

I took my H out to 2,000ft yesterday with no issues on the video or telemetry. I think I was around 300-400ft up, so probably could have gone further out.

I was using Gorgeous setting but forgot to lock the WB... He sent me his file and when Imported into my editing software it was way blown out. I had to color correct , scale and sharpen. My intent was not to match the color. The Yuneec looks over saturated where as the P3 looks too fake. There are a lot of burnt browns in the actual area and the P3 rendered everything in a colder temperature. True blue and green. Not accurate at all.

I was surprised at 1.1K. There was literally NO difference in transmission speed or quality.

Yikes!!! The white balance on the Typhoon is off. Green appears brown due to the camera enhancing the reds. Unfortunately this is all too common in most Typhoon H vids, but it can be easily fixed with manual settings.
 
Seems this happens when the cam tries to AWB when the gimbal is tilting down. Lock it always I say.
