If it looses signal, it will auto home to where it took off

Says will go up to 1.24 miles and i cant get it more then 1/2 mile away before it loses signal i have tried open areas and gone to different locations

It lost signal pretty quick.

Until that point, I had only been flying in open areas and staying under 40 ft off the ground, so signal strength and interference shouldn’t have been a problem

When your signal is lost, the Parrot Bebop 2 will return to the launch point

I flew it about 15 times, when it lost signal, it came back to "home".

The Skycontroler 2 has a huge wifi antenna, I can fly with confidence a few hundred yards away while the P3S would give a "Weak Transmission Signal" warnings often

It can be flown with just a smart phone but the controller communicates with the drone with a much stronger signal

(Even better might be a way to tell the drone what you wanted it to do if it loses signal: stay, maybe drop elevation, or return

Unfortunately, on about my 15th flight...it lost signal and did NOT come back to home.

The drone is all around great, everything works as it should, and although you'll end up spending $40 on downloadable content for the drone, it's definitely worth the money

The security tape was sealed on the box as well as in the drone boxes.
