does it work well in the air? for pilots who needs to monitor the ATC and ATIS frequencies..etc..

Hi Tze - The receiver does very well in the air band, i would say yes to using in a plane .. but i would definately recommend a better antenna, exterior of the craft would be optimal.

Don't see way it shoudn't just as long as it's in a reasonable range from the transmitting aircraft.

don't see why it shouldn't just as long as it's in a reasonable range of the transmitting aircraft.

hello, to be honest i am not sure, but i just watched a FlySky FS-T6 transmitter review and i don't see why it wouldn't work - i am not an expert in radio / receivers, but you could try just the radio first - make sure to do your ground radio checks and range checks before flight - if it looks good you should be ok - if you have any interference i would try the flysky receiver and double check it before flight - i wish i knew more about it, but again this is not my area of expertise - i hope this helps you - if you feel like it please let me know how it turns out. thanks,

garmin D2 pilot watch is almost perfect.A cute device with many aviation functions！if change a better battery and the information ahout the airport,such as frequency,airport elevation, and show the special use airspace on the map, it will be perfect!

It will keep flying. There are no automatic land or hover features in this quad as far as I know. Check the batteries in your controller. Your range sounds too short.

Yes, it is often used for viewing First Person View (FPV) from remote control aircraft. You would need to buy a separate video transmitter, receiver, and display device.

No, it bearly survive in normal conditions. I bought two hopeing v2 will be better than v1 and no. Limited control range due to iphone wifi dependence, reaponse is not optimum. If you really want a worthy drone check out DJI Phantom 2, worth the extra bucks.

If you mean can you drive it based on GPS, NO. Though it is a DJI NAZA Unit and so I see no reason why you can't plug in a arduino pilot and give it some waypoints. If you are talking about staying on point at a location (GPS Lock) YES - In GPS mode it is very responsive and when you let go of the controls it stops in mid air and hovers even in wind (18 mph today and kept within 1 meter) Tried that with the Blade 350 QX and was disappointed (more like 4 meters) pretty iffy.

So far operating air space has worked for me.. I haven't been the 16 miles.. I havery been bout 6 an it has worked good.. hope this helps..

I tried it once...never again. Even if you feel no wind, it will probably drift away. Also the infra red sensor is at the rear facing aftwards and will soon loose contact with the transmistter, especially when the heli is facing you (the sensor is facing away from you). The infra red control works very well indoors because the IR light from the transmitter probably reflects off the walls/ceiling, but it can not do that outdoors.

Altitude gain. Unit resets to zero each flight. Is it accurate? Can only guess but my calibrated eyeball says its pretty close.

Yes. Just charge it up and it's ready to fly. (Flies really well, too.) If it seems to lose the signal when it's high or pointed a certain direction, the receiver on the helicopter is a little black box thing connected by wires that can be bent down for a better angle to receive signals from 360 degrees.

In case you have not been paying attention, the FCC is in the process of making all FPV models illegal. It looks like they want to have all the marbles, and we can't have any! But to answer your question, just using very good antenna's can get you miles of range (line of sight), and a good electronics technician could boost the output of the transmitter easily. I'll bet if you google it you can get much info!!!

I have been flying mine indoors only.....when the weather gets nice I'll try it outdoors. Flies great indoors.

Summing up from the others as well as with my own additions. * Two on-board video cameras, one is 720p with "photo" ability. * Video sharing on YouTube. * A community of users. * Flight data graphics. * Due to streaming video, I can fly virtually, as if from the pilots seat-- I can see what the Drone sees, in real time. * Multiple flight control options. * I can set up the control range from tame to wild, such as for indoor or outdoor flight, or my own preferences. * It is tough, but easy, cheap, and quick to repair. * "Augmented Reality" games. * Open source software-- e.g., I can use the 60Beat Game Controller besides my touchscreen (iPad, iPhone, Android, etc). * Open source software-- e.g., The AR.Drone can autonomously track an object. * It flies "large" not like a gnat-- something experienced r/c pilots appreciate. * I can pre-program flights so the AR.Drone flies itself. * Indoor and Outdoor shell. * I average just over 11 minutes per battery charge. * Lasting fun: there is whole industry of customizing these because the owners use their drone a lot more often than the $50.00 quadrocopters. * If I run low on battery, it informs me and lands itself if I do not respond. * If I fly out of range, it hovers, and waits for me to move closer to reconnect. * If I take my hand off the controls, it station-keeps at altitude. * It knows its altitude, and ground speed and transmits that in real time as well as records it. * Because of the above, there is one last important point the AR.Drone has over the others: The users all wish their friends had one, because with two or more flying, games just happen.

Hi Mike, was just using mine today indoors and it worked. Picked up a strike 11 miles out, which according to radar was about right.

Yes!! Just not sure how or where to set one up without effecting the flight characteristics.
