What is the flying range of the unit and WiFi viewing range with a phone?

The flying range is about 1000 feet. When it leaves the control zone it will return to hover 20 feet about the starting point as directed by the onboard GPS. In 30 seconds it will land where it took off from. The Wi-Fi range is about 200 feet. When the copter leaves the zone the camera will continue to operate according to the last instructions from your iphone. You will lose the image on the phone and know it is now out of range. Different cameras operate at different distances. The camera shown with the DJI Phantom FC40 will only transmit back to the iphone about 200 feet.

I cannot tell you the exact range, but in the open, it is a lot farther than I feel comfortable flying it. It is so far away that I cannot tell the "front" from the "back". I have flown the wifi out of range. I cannot tell you the range. I would think that the specs they give on the website are very close.Mike

The quadcopter can fly about 1000 ft. away (according to manufacturer). We've taken it a bit further, and the wifi camera still worked great. However, this is going to depend mainly on the capability of your phone's wifi receiver. The wifi antennae are different from phone to phone.

Wifi viewing distance is about 40 yards. But you can control the quad copter out of sight.

The flying range is approx. 3000 feet. The Wi-Fi viewing range with your phone is only about 300-400 feet, but that can be extended with a Wi-Fi booster.

I believe the range is 500 feet. I can walk out to the mailbox (country road) and to a back shed on our property of 2-1/2 acres. My phone or any other device is no problem.

I use an iPhone 3G and and it is picking up in another room about 18-20 feet away. I was pleasantly surprised.

I was able to use this phone about 250 ft. from my house. Not sure if this helped

I don't know. I returned mine ss I was not getting the range advertised. I like the lg ones better.

Yes, your phone doesn't need to be in wifi range, just the camera. So, you can see the nursery from work!

Don't think its too far. Maybe 30 to 50 feet in an open space. Never tried distance since I mostly use it in my car or in just one room. Its well built. Better wimax reception than any freedompop compatible phones. Starts up and connects in about 1 min.

10-20 feet. The range is pretty good on this device. Just don't have a wall in between your phone/device and these speakers because the frequency may cut here and there. Besides that, it has great sound quality and it can get pretty loud.

I have one mounted in my basement and it covers about a 1/2 acre lot at 80% signal strength on the outer edge. My phone has connected to my wifi in the business parking lot across the street from my house ( about 400ft line of sight and through 4 walls and some dirt) BEST AP I EVER OWNED.

From my Samsung Galaxy it works 20-25 feet. Out on the porch (window open) or into the next room. From what other people say, I assume this is extreme range. Might be helpful to know I am in a area with almost no interference.

My unit varies at times. I have to get right next to it to get it started on my I-Phone and can only get about 10 - 20 feet away. Its a great trouble free unit, gives great picture on the computer not very good on the phone, holds up to the heat in a vehicle. I love it.

The connection is pretty stable short range. WiFi has a limited range but I've found that my Galaxy S4 can keep a connection over 100 feet but the iPad 2 gets pretty unreliable at that range. I feel that the connection for a modern smartphone/tablet is stable for how far you would *want* it to travel away from you. I've experienced a glitch on multiple AR Drone's where it fly's straight up a couple hundred feet and probably 50 feet away from me and they have still responded to the land command from my phone.

The base unit operates on the 2.4 GHz ISM band using 802.11 b Wi-Fi, which is rated at a range of 125 ft indoor; 460 ft outdoor. So it sounds like you would be pushing the limit. Depends on how many walls, floors, windows, trees, etc. it must pass through and how dense they are. You won't know till you try.

Richard,I am pleased with the unit and can pick up signal approx 50 metres away. Live in a 3 bedroom unit and never have a problemGood luck

We have measured about 30 ft range with an iPhone. It depends on the device though. With some devices it is a little shorter distance. It depends on the power of the device it is paired to as well.

Idk the approximate range but it works very well in and outside of my home. My house is about 1300sq ft on a 1/2 acre. I use the phones outside sometimes while in my backyard and its still crystal clear. Hope this helps!

1000 feet. I own a B&B.; I installed this so my guests would have WIFI in out other building and it works perfectly. I did not need to spend over $200 for service. I am very happy with this.
