I have two X5C Quads and have not had any problems really losing signals until i just pushed it to far away, below a video on Youtube that shows a mod. Have you tried binding your Dad,s X5C with your remote to see if it might be remote problem, pretty sure should bind ok.

Sorry just saw on earlier post you have tried that correct?

Darth Chad,

It's been awhile since CPD suggested a (likely) cause of the signal problem with your dad's x5.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious to know if controller batteries were indeed the problem and, if not, have you determined what is?  

Don't leave us in the dark.  What have you found?

Well, the first thing to check is the batteries in the remote. They might have aged a bit if you used it a lot over that month. I'm not really an expert with the quads, I just have a baby X3 that's just enough to keep me in the hobby when I get a chance here and there. Thus, hopefully SF or somebody with more quad experience can come along and help.

My father and I just purchased (2) X5C-1 quadcopters to play with.  We love it!  However, I have an issue.  My father's quad has started losing signal around 45 feet.  My quad still does well with controlling over long distances.  I tried using my controller for his quad and it still loses signal.  What it does is it takes off under control, but then when it gets to a certain distance, the lights at the bottom blink and you lose control of the quad.  Sometimes you can get the control back as it is either flying or falling to the ground.  Is there are any fix to it?  When we first got the quads about a month ago, his wasn't doing this.  Did something come loose or is this a common issue?  Any feedback would be great!  Thanks.
