Happy Model moblite 7 newbie needs help - RX LOSS

hi all ,been flying my moblite 7 fpv for a little while …i noticed last time i keep seeing the RX LOSS and the drone dropped …just now , lovely evening , i took it out and tried it …twice i was dropped out of the sky both within 30m distance .
i will check any loose wire/ connection but checked on youtube and loads people advising to check betaflight , update firmware etc …i am all new to this and have not ever connected to pc , although was thinking i will have to when i need to set diff modes like ACRO , AIR . anyone here had this ? mine is just a standard moblite 7 and it came with this flysky FS-i6.

It’s not unusual for RX signal to be momentarily lost for a split secong, BF (andiNav) can cater for this by allowing a short time to elapse before it actions a ‘failsafe’
Look in the configurator here…Failsafe tab

What receiver is in it? If it’s an SPI Receiver then 30m is about its limit.

Definitely an SPI receiver. They have limited range and the environment has a huge bearing on the signal strength anything between you and the drone will significantly reduce the signal strength and will cause a failsafe.

My Tinyhawk freestyle 2 used to failsafe at anywhere between 30 and a 100m depending on the conditions. For instance if it had been raining the damp air used to play havoc with the signal. Same if I flew it close to wet trees.

:face_with_symbols_over_mouth: my RX prob has been solved - new pack of 5 aerials arrived yeahhh
BUT now , 2 of my 650 1S battery wont charge probably due to long time sitting in the box! i now need to get a better charger to revive them . Anyone here use this 1 - SkyRC Imax B6AC V2 RC Battery Charger?

Yeah I have one, Never had any issues and it can charge most types of batteries
be careful of fake ones, I got mine from Amazon
