• A maximum distance of 250 meters between the UAV and the pilot is
recommended. Beyond this range the UAV becomes too small to see.
• The UAV is not waterproof. Flying in rain, fog or snow is undertaken at your own
risk and not recommended.
• Flying in dusty or sandy areas may damage the cameras and motors permanently.
• Altitudes of more than 3,500 meters above sea level are risky. Flight time and
stability decreases dramatically.
• Do not take off in areas with strong external magnetic fields, if you are not used to
flying in Height-Mode.
