Using Spektrum DX4C transmitter and SR410 receiver. I know that the signal does not go through carbon fiber hull/deck, so I am using the external antenna tube. Total antenna length is 7", with 5 1/2" in the tube. So the little bare end is nearly 5" above the deck. As I travel around our small lake, the boat quits on the far side, only about 300 feet away. (took the measurement on Google Earth.) I release the controls, wave the transmitter up high, and after a few seconds, I can run the boat again. Sometimes I can pass that spot without losing signal, particularly if I'm going at full throttle. But, when I am slowing down to go around the buoy, she just quits. I have not had a chance to re-bind or try a different receiver yet.
Any ideas?
