How far was the drone and where you in a busy area (residential/commercial)?
Strong interference which means just that... you should get the drone closer to ensure the connection isnt lost. For starter, make sure the controller antenna face the drone with clear line of sight. Not even your body in the way.
5 GHZ may get you a better signal but only short range. Whenver i ve tried using it, range was limited to 500' or so. It is useful for short range flight in busy areas but not for longer distance
It may also be your own phone that interferes with the WiFi, try to put the phone in flight mode. Additionally, it would be an advantage to let the controller / Anafi manage to find the shared channel to work on. The WiFi signal spectrum looks quite different from where Anafi is located than on the place you are standing. Locking up to a single channel is, in my opinion, the same as asking for big problems with the connection.
Fly safe, greetings Leif.
Thanks Leif.
It has happened again yesterday! I have a 'roof inspection' business and went to access a job near where I live. I decided to have a prelim look at the roof before quoting. Placed the Anifi on the concrete drive outside the building (big METAL shed) and it launched. Up to 2/3 meters all fine. As soon as I got higher the 'strong interference' warning appeared at the bottom of the screen. Didn't loose control of the drone though.
Just recapping on my first post that started this conversation. I was at a house (mine) at the top end of Fraser Island off the coast of Australia all last week. We were doing a considerable amount of work around the property each day and I was videoing it every day. The second last day was when the big loose happened - no control over the drone. The drone was 4/6 meters in the air at the time and about the same distance away from me. Go figure!
I know I'm missing something here but not sure what.
I have a Yuneec Typhoon H also and have never had a problem with the wifi connection on that.
I love my Anifi and it is very frustrating to have this happening but not all the time.
Just to finish. I'm a licenced drone piolet here in Oz and I fly by the rules both visually, altitude and distance.
