No, it has motors that are ran by the batteries on the drone. They have gimble sticks for that.

It draws it's power from the quad copters power so it wouldn't work right handheld. They do make 2 and 3 axis handheld gimbals for gopro. seach on Amazon and you'll find one.

I don't think so. You need power and axis information for the gimbal to stabilize. You can use it though, the way you're saying just to hold the camera. But it would be the same as holding it with your hand.

Not really. Any wind will effect its performance. However, with that said, if you had absolutely no wind, both remote and copter in the shade and are willing to stand or chase with it , it could be done. But, this is an indoor copter and is best used that way.

I did not attach it for that very reason. It's fine without it for me to use. I ride just fine. My 2 yr old loves it.

outdoors...but to be honest...don't buy it...I ordered one, it was defective...would fly a few seconds, then drop like a rock...I returned, ordered another, same thing...I googled it, and seems to be a manufactor's flaw...i returned it and ordered a different copter...buy at your own risk! I hate that it was defective, because the copter really does look awesome, and you might get a good one...it's up to you!

You can't use this with the gopro..you will lose control of the drone and crash it..i learned the hard way trust me ! They have the same freguency and they will interfere..go to dji website under customer service and call them...they are very helpful

Yes, you can. I do it, you can use the vibrator but it makes a strange noise after use a few times. I use it without the vibrator on and it is fine

You should look at the Walkera QR W100S. It can be flown using an iPhone or such, set to gravitational mode. That means you simply tilt your iPhone and the copter reacts accordingly.

You could in theory use it without the kickstand, but the TPU isn't completely stand-alone and there are areas on the back that are only covered by the kickstand part. I don't think its really designed to separate easily either, so I doubt you'd be taking it on and off as it is a bit of a hassle to do so. I have always used it as a single unit, and it would feel odd to take it apart except to clean it or something.

Yes, it can be used without the pedal. I've never even bothered with the foot pedal. I hope this helps!

Negative. Flies like a quad-copter. Mine flew great for a day, the there was a communication failure between the plane and the remote. Had to return it.

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 quad that has agility mode like the Nano QX then this might be a good step up. They say you can fly it indoors, but not as a beginner. If you fly over soft grass, and learn how to use the throttle hold switch it is a very durable heli. Be sure to order an extra spindle set or two.

The four blades make this and all other quad-copters dramatically more stable than the regular remote control helicopters in wind. It will maintain flight in some strong winds but it does get taken away with the breeze, you'll need to steer against the wind to not lose it. But yes, it will work in the wind.

I bought material for my first build from hobbyking.com, but there are others as well. I'd google "quadcopter first build" or similar and follow tutorials to get started, as there are a few hangups that can be tricky to figure out the first time through.

Yes, you can. It has it's own tripod stand, it does not get anchored into the ground.

If it was absolutely calm with no breeze at all you could possibly try to fly it outside. I tried once when I thought it was calm enough to fly it and lost control of it immediately with just a very slight breeze. I think in the instructions that come with the Helicopter it says not for outdoor use.

No - the app only controls the camera....there is no interface between the battery of the quad and the app..nor can you control the quad via the app.
