    You flew to an average distance of 615' LOS, which is exactly the same as me. Must be the physical comfort limit for the human eye with self leveling RC.

    How did you figure out the distance?

    I know Allen Dale from the air better than most people know it from the ground  :)

    I saw where you were standing and used Google Earth to measure out to land marks that you flew over. The tail boom on the heli is the only way i can see which end of the aircraft I am looking at. So I have no idea how you can see a multi rotor that far out?

    I changed the arms around on my hexacopter and that has helped me with the orientation.  I really want a FPV system so I don't have to do this LOS so much.
