how far from remote can it go?

The furthest I've flown is about 1 kilometre which is about 1/2 a mile from where I was located. I had no control problems at all. Because I was in a ravine my video glasses had a lot of interference and at times it was hard to see where I was going. I wouldn't chance going any further. Although I couldn't see mine, it's good to keep it in line of site. If it looses your signal it should go into safe mode and fly back to where it took off from automatically . I hope this helps, I really like my phantom and fly as often as I can....Jim Hooper

according to the software, 400m altitude and about 2km from remote. i haven't exceeded 1km though. it's really hard to navigate it without line of sight. even if you maintained a line of sight, it's still scary to drive it without seeing it. it eventually looks like a dot at that point. far navigation probably requires an FPV system which is a headache to get right, install, get governmental permissions for the communication bandwidth/power and it will add weight to the phantom which effectively reduces the battery life and flight time

Since I use my Mr. Beams indoors to illuminate artwork, I don't know the maximum range of the remote. The customer service rep. at Mr. Beams, Maya Winfield, maya@mrbeams.com, 216-455-0192, Ext. 1, can undoubtedly provide this information.

The spec is that the range of the remote from the base unit is 600ft. Depending on walls etc it could be less.My aunt uses it in her single family 1 story home without problems.

Mine is installed inside the garage. The longest distance to use the remote control is about 60 feet (going through 3 or 4 walls). Definitely the timer needs to be inside a weatherproof box if installed outside. The wireless range depends on number of obstructions between controller and timer and weatherproofing box may not affect the range that much (not as bad as a wall).

Lots. You'll have to see if you have the long range antenna or not. This is the long range remote

The wireless remote works from as far as 30 feet but you must be in front of the camera for it to work. The cord remote can be used from any direction but it is only 3 feet long.

Hi friend, I would say about 30+ feet distance. I bought 4 Attachnids and build a full battle arena. I would say these remote units are top range and function we had about 270+ kids playing on them for 2 days straight at a games convention without battery change.

Most car remote transmitters are about the same power output. They will reach approximately 100 feet.

This remote control has very short working distance. About 3 meter maybe...I have same trouble.

I just bought the remote for the exact reason you mentioned about the Microsoft remote. I needed more range when I was listening to music while doing other things in my home, something the harmony does wonderfully. I can leave the room with it and walk into my kitchen, point it toward the television, and all my devices can still receive commands. I'd say its about 40 feet (although I will admit I'm terrible at estimating distances) and it worked fine. I guess it is worth mentioning that my walls are white and have a tendency to bounce IR signals better because of that, but overall it would seem the remote is powerful enough for anyone's usage habits. Highly recommended.

It doesn't have that kind of range. Mine wont activate or turn off from 20ft away.

I've used the remote from inside my home which is about a good 20ft from my vehicle.Programing the remote was a breeze as well.The instructions were verbatim.

I have had mine out to`1200 feet, too far me to see it well enough to control it. If the AA's are near end life the transmitter only controls out to maybe 800 feet.

I have not tested it from exactly 15ft away, due to the fact that I don't have the option. But i have tested the key board and mouse from about 10ft away through 2 walls and a solid wood

Yes, 20 feet away even. It is good when you can see it, as substantial debris tends to cause it to flip, at which point it reverses. But because you can remote forward or reverse, you can just drive it backwards to go forward, or forward to go backward when it gets upside down.

About 2000 feet should do it, plus the distance from the transmitter to the boundary of your property

i have used it about 12 feet away and it worked fine. It will go further then that.
