I recently checked the video range on a Spyhawk.

Both the plane and the Tx were on the ground, held at waist height.

Managed 380 yards ... but Tx orientation is quite critical at that range.


You can see the quality of video that you get with the Spyhawk, here ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=wAtt0NbyuFg

I think that it's not at all bad, for the money. And the auto-stab works great.
