view but this is still connected to the control so you can still fly it further away but you're not gonna be able to see what the camera sees and since we are talking about range all the manufacturers suggest that you can fly this up to a kilometer away now in my test I was only able to fly for about meters and then it got disconnected and that started coming back but again this will depend on where you're flying because if you fly in town it's gonna be different than if you fly somewhere on the field now over the past three years I got to fly a lot of quadcopter some of them are very cheap some of them are very expensive and the cheaper ones are never that great to fly because they can't hover in the same spot because they don't have GPS well this one we have GPS and that means that it's gonna stay in the same spot I basically let go of the controller and the quadcopter is gonna stay in the exact same spot so it's very very stable so I like this a lot about this quadcopter and since this is a gps-enabled quadcopter it will also fly back whenever it gets disconnected from the controller so if you turn off the controller or if it's too far or anything like that it will fly back and land that wherever it took off no it doesn't land in exact same spot it lands move like three four meters away but it will come back and that's very important because the cheaper quad copters just get lost but this one actually comes back to you the controller it's also made out of plastic entirely but it doesn't feel cheap by any means and it takes some for double-a batteries as well now I like the fact that we have a support for a smartphone and that attaches or detaches from the controller so if you're not planning to use your smartphone you can just use the controller that way the controller has a very small display
