VFR Low Warnings after Twin Firmware Update

I updated the firmware in my FrSky Twin X LiteS TX to Firmware 1.6.3, and the RF Module to 3.0.3. I updated the firmware in my TW GR6 receivers to 3.0.2. Now I get VFR low warnings when I fly my gliders high, and I never did before the firmware updates. Even though I'm getting warnings I still have good control of the gliders. I checked the transmitter VFR warning threshold and it is set at 50%. Do I need to lower the warning threshold? 50% already seems quite low to me.
 
50% basically means 50% of your packets are not making it. I think it is good that it is warning you. Try moving antennas around and for sure turn on the logging and see if you can make some improvements.

I would not expect issues on TWIN. Antennas all look healthy?
 
Yes antennas all look good and installed at right angles to each other with clear views to the ground (when the gliders are airborne). They were all new receivers when installed. And I wasn't getting these VFR low warnings until I updated the TX and RX firmwares.
