Sorry that this is a very basic question but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere else and/or people that have answered it on other forums haven't given clear answers.
So, when I connect my mobile phone to my drone and don't use the remote controller, the connection between phone and drone is wifi, which means it's limited by the constraints of wifi, i.e. up to 100 metres and subject to interference from other sources.
But, when I connect my mobile phone to the remote controller by USB (or Bluetooth) and connect the remote controller to the drone, my drone distance suddenly increases to 1 to 2 km. Is this still a wifi connection or is it something else, e.g. radio wave? If it is still wifi, then how is it so much more than phone to drone?
