[QUOTE="delovelady, post: 20268, member: 873"] Interesting reading here. I get the impression many/most of those posting here believe the Spark's horizontal limit is artificially imposed (presumably by software/firmware), and some are upset by that. I honestly don't know this (never tried), but I presume the limit is more at the mercy of the technology (try hooking up with your home WiFi, which is the same technology, from a mile or more away!) rather than some control-freak conspiracy. Even if there is some firmware limit, you have to be at or beyond the fringe of the signal's capability! I would welcome the vendor's attempt to protect me from losing my hard-earned property. So is that where we are: being upset with the vendor for not providing a $2000 communications solution in a $700 drone? Or am I misreading this and being naive? [/QUOTE]
