it is interesting, but they don't tell you how far you range is for control.

The Vid said "..thanks to WiFi tech" so may it can operate any were there is a open WiFi.

They don't tell you how long the batteries last either. Imagine having it out snooping around and boing... no power. Now find it. :bump:

I imagine it's Lipo battery powered, like a couple of the indoor helicopters I fly around the house here.

4 rotors, probably two battery packs, 5 to 10 minutes, tops I bet.
It's got to draw a lot of power, especially if it has a camera on it too. :running:

the site said 15 min flying time.
the reason i wanted to know the control range is, so i could use it to pester people remotely

Hmmm. If I understand it properly, technically you could remote fly it in another city, as long as you had WiFi access for each?

right, i was just hoping that it would be able to fly from my living room to say, the building 2 or 3 blocks away., then back again.

That is one awesome toy. I had heard about it last night.

Uses iPhone to control with.

Note on WiFi. Your iPhone has a built in WiFi transciever and so does the aircraft. Thus they are talking directly to each other without a WiFi bouncer station. Its direct-link. But.. Its range is limited. I would say line of sight at about 20 or 30 yards (or meters) and with a building in the way, about 10 yards (like in the next room with a wall in the way, etc).
