What is the range of these? Specifically, what is the range outdoors? I'm thinking about using it on a RC Quad Copter in case I lose it.

ha.... they don't work at all. You can be 1 cm away and press away on the button. After about 10 to 15 pushes it may go off once. I have only used them in my house. In general they consistently don't go off at all or go off in your pants with every step you take. I don't imagine they have a very good max range when it actually works since they are so cheap. I would HIGHLY recommend avoiding this product.

I wish I could help you but I bought these for my sister who is constantly loosing her keys. In the home or car they work great. As far as long range I have no clue. Sorry I couldn't be more help

I fly mine outside in a 50 x 30 foot area with no tree cover. it really isnt great for indoors, too fast and covers too much ground. It is awesome outside though. Highly recommend as an upgrade from the syma indoor copters.

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

As far as the on the radio. It boosts a range of 40 to 80 meters. That would be roughly 120 to 240 feet. I have got it up to 90 feet with no problems but at that distance the heli gets very same and hard to see. This copter is not ment to be flown at 200 or more feet. Most people that are not into RC hobbies always want to know how high a heli or airplane will fly without even wondering if they will be able to see it at a height of 1000 feet. I think that the range of 40 to 80 meters is very good for this transmitter. I personally like to fly mine no further than 60 feet away. Hope this helps. As far as the on the radio.

I only fly airplanes, but I know that this receiver works on helicopters, so I'am assumingthat your quadcopter works like a heli, so as long as it requires 6 or less channels youshould not have any problems. The regeiver is very good never had any problems.

Transmitter is not water proof, you cannot use it UNDER WATER. However, I wrap this transmitter in a plastic sandwich bag on my quadcopter- It really helps protect it from rain and damp ground... so you can make it water-RESISTANT.

Your best bet would probably cruise the internet.Google RC Helicopter and sites will pop up. Can't remember if Amazon listed the manufacturer or check amazon site where the copters are and look near the bottom where shops are listedTerry

The range is not very far, maybe 100-200 feet. This is more of a toy than something a hobbyist would use. Still fun and challenging to fly, nonetheless.

The elevation isn't an issue. unfortunately, my experience was that the copter would not could not fly - due to a problem with the rotor gears. I returned it.

The ones I received had a pretty good range on it. 50 feet-ish. It could be that the batteries were fresh in mine. It wouldn't hurt to try. Please let me know.

I never had it outdoors. Indoor flight seemed inconsistent so I returned it. I have a Traxxas QR-1 and it flies fairly well in a light wind.

Don't waste your money better to check out helipad.com where there many quad copters helicopters. I recently purchase a quad copter from propel excellent choice demonstrated at FAO Schwarz worth every penny. So as far as range a big fat ZERO

I use mine for a quad copter so you should be fine. Depending on the number of channels on your transmitter, you may be able to get by with fewer channels on the receiver for less $.

Yes, but it's not what you want to use. These are very loud and gobble power, you what something with a big low pitch prop. If you're asking this question you are new to RC Quads so I'd say you would be better off going to Tower hobbies or HobbyKing to get one that is proven to work.

If you have a Ham license, you know they are line of sight. Mine will easily go 100 miles if I'm hitting someone or a repeater on a mountain top.They are 5 watts and they behave like any other 5 watt radio. I have a 50 watt transmitter I can hook it up to in the car.They are great radios.

The radio is a Spectrum DX5E. It uses 4 AA batteries. It will not be interfered with by other radios. Range depends on battery strength and atmospheric conditions. Is it adequate to take the Radian in a thermal to 500 feet and glide around the field? Absolutely! For a great experience contact an instructor through your local AMA RC flying club.

Put your question out to multirotorforums.com. They have a DJI phantom section and I am sure you'd get an accurate answer.
