Did you say that you flew your Inspire 1 or Phantom @ 30,000 ft and 2 miles? Where do you live, country?

Very informative. What about those reflector types mods made of plastic with a metal reflector? They do keep the antenna parallel.

Some of them do, and some don't.
So if you get one that is keeping antennas parallel, they are perfect, I notice the larger reflector one that keeps antenna in Y probably has more loss due to the Y loss of the antenna then the gain of larger reflectors.

I'll be making video of Phantom 3 remote with or without antenna reflects

I believe image 1 reflectors will do more harm then gain. and image 1 with parallel reflectors should be great improvement
