GPS Rescue saved me again | Speedybee Mario 8 FPV Long Range Flight in the mountains

Long time no see!
We’re back in the beautiful mountains for another long range adventure with the Speedybee Mario 8 🏔️

This time, I went for a over 4.4 km flight deep into the mountains, climbing over 1600 meters in altitude.
Everything went smoothly — until I lost connection behind a ridge… 👀
Luckily, GPS Rescue kicked in and brought the drone safely back into signal range.

This was one of my most beautiful and intense flights so far — and a great reminder of how important a reliable GPS Rescue setup is.
