Short video range

[Hambon]

I have been having trouble with my video signal dropping at about 250 yards. Even when in clear line of sight. Raising altitude helps a little but not much. It worked great when new but seems like after the first time I used the CGO app with my kindle, I began noticing the issue soon after the first time let my kindle connect to the drone. Today it froze up and failed to reconnect even when I brought it back to within ten feet. Took shutting it off and back on to receive video again. However it continued recording all the while. I could not stop or pause the recording.

Help us out a little:
1.) What Drone?
2.) What Camera?
3.) What Controller?

I completely skipped the details. Sorry. Also I updated my description of my problem a little

Q500. Not 500.

It’s a Q 500 4K, ST 10 controller, CGO 3 pro camera.

Sounds like a worn out video transmitter. They are subject to a lot of heat, the prime enemy of electronics, and don’t last forever.

It’s been used very little but could be the problem
