EPIC 8km Long Range FPV Flight.
The O3 "VTX" antenna placement is not a problem due its top placement. I flew 4.2km away from home and i still had solid signal. The lowest I dropped was 17Mbps. The body of the quad and the tilt angle may hide the antennas a bit on the turning back home but that would have happened either way i think.
The only problem for me is the freezing fingers. I landed with over 3,6V on each flights, I could have been flew longer but then i need a longer ridge and warmer fingers in -20 degrees.

Damn i miss those days, when i could fly a drone somewhere years ago. Here, in Ukraine, we are not allowed to fly anymore because of the War. Well, technically you still can fly on a battlefield your FPV loaded with explosives but its not my story. So, guys… Enjoy and live your best life. Cheers.

A good tip is to leave your drone on the trunk of your car but all the batteries inside on the floor of the passenger seat and the heat to them. Then when you plug your drone the drone will be in cold temperatures but not your battery then you have less chance of getting foggy camera.
