I think this is a good question, and a good mirror, but I believe it's a duplicate.

@ifconfig I don't really think the question is a duplicate, but I just saw that one of the answers to that question answers this question. So, yeah, that answers my question.

I agree it's not strictly speaking a duplicate, but an answer to this would be faily similar in content to the ones there, IMO.

Does flying a drone close to the ground affect signal quality?
