If you want to fly BVLOS, join the military....
If you would like to hear about what you can legally and safely do with boosted signals, ie: penetration.... we can chat.
I used an ARGTEC antenna setup from an I1, works good in some of the most dense and signal packed areas of the east coast USA.
With all due respect, I find your comment kind of ironic. I personally think FPV is a safer way to fly, and here's my reasoning.
I always have my goggles plugged into my Inspire 1 RC as an added measure of safety. Why? Because if something goes wrong - like say losing GPS lock in a 12 mph wind when the bird is 400' away - I really don't have time to try to figure out the bird's orientation. The wind is carrying the bird away and FAST. VLOS becomes almost useless. One mistake (which is easy to make when your bird looks like a dot on the horizon and you're in a panic situation), and you could lose your bird. If the Sun is shining, the iPad is almost useless, even with a shade, even IN the shade. Once I throw the goggles on, I instantly have a very clear view of the bird's orientation. As an added bonus, they receive telemetry data, which can be invaluable in a panic situation.
My FPV goggles have saved my bacon twice. Once when a compass went awry on a Phantom 1. The bird not only lost GPS lock, but flew VERY erratically. It took 4 attempts to land the bird. Every time she'd get below 20', shed "slide" off to the side. So I would punch it, get some altitude, and start again.
The other was when my Inspire finished a mapping mission, and went into hover mode 900' away. I take responsibility for not programming "Finish mode" to RTH in the mapping software. At any rate, not only was the bird 900' away @ 330' AGL, but the camera was locked about 120° to the left. Imagine trying to figure out THAT orientation issue on an iPad, eh? Stick forward appears to make the bird fly sideways in the iPad!! I quickly figured out that there was something weird with the camera, so I tossed on the googles and used the telemetry diamond to line up the home point to bring her home. I was able to fly home, all the while the camera looking to the left and behind the bird slightly. I suppose I could have used RTH, but at the time, I didn't know what was wrong, and didn't trust the RTH. I just knew that my bird was hovering 900' away with 40% battery and a mis-oriented camera. It took about 20 seconds to figure out the camera was off axis. No amount of anything was reorienting the camera, including the C2 button I had set up to reset camera yaw. I simply followed that diamond to get the bird close enough to home point to fly VLOS.
I guess my point is that when the feces hits the rotating oscillator, my first line of defense is my goggles. The goggles puts me in the pilot seat, which is exactly where I want to be in an emergency situation or malfunction. So I find it ironic - even strange - to stay that FPV is "unsafe."
I would argue that, in many situations, FPV is safer than VLOS. During the average flight, I would say I use FPV 80% of the time and VLOS the remaining 20%. But make no mistake, the VLOS part is very important. I wouldn't want to be stuck using FPV 100% of the time. Whether coming or going, if the bird is within 100' of home point, I fly VLOS. Occasionally I challenge myself to land via FPV, because you never know when that skill might come in handy.
As a peripheral benefit, when I'm running camera in a dual operator mode, I absolutely count on those goggles for accurate composition and smooth camera operation.
