• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

This looks like it could be fun.

They don't tell you how long the batteries last either. Imagine having it out snooping around and boing... no power. Now find it. :bump:

I imagine it's Lipo battery powered, like a couple of the indoor helicopters I fly around the house here.

4 rotors, probably two battery packs, 5 to 10 minutes, tops I bet.
It's got to draw a lot of power, especially if it has a camera on it too. :running:
 
the site said 15 min flying time.
the reason i wanted to know the control range is, so i could use it to pester people remotely

Hmmm. If I understand it properly, technically you could remote fly it in another city, as long as you had WiFi access for each?
 
right, i was just hoping that it would be able to fly from my living room to say, the building 2 or 3 blocks away., then back again.
 
Ok! Drones for the masses ! Some of the NFL Quarterbacks need to get their hands on some lazer-guided footballs -

HEY! I got a good idea!

If we can fly it in another city. I say we pull all are money, buy one and see if one of the Canelo's Cantina Moderator's leg live up what she show us!
 
That is one awesome toy. I had heard about it last night.

Uses iPhone to control with.

Note on WiFi. Your iPhone has a built in WiFi transciever and so does the aircraft. Thus they are talking directly to each other without a WiFi bouncer station. Its direct-link. But.. Its range is limited. I would say line of sight at about 20 or 30 yards (or meters) and with a building in the way, about 10 yards (like in the next room with a wall in the way, etc).
