How far away can you control your Rover?

when my Rovers get about 40 feet away from me I lose control of them they either wont do anything at all or it will just start doing it's own thing (spinning in circles, firing, reloading etc...)

the same thing happens with both of my Rovers so I'm assuming this is normal

does any one else have this problem?

yeh.. they all the same.. dont forget .. theres only a tiny circuit on the rover... so dont expect wonderous range and anyway 40 feet is amazin in comparison to other micro rc vehichles.. take the bit char -g's and so forth... the £20 price range vehicles.. ur lucky if u get 10 feet out of them.. i think credit goes to plantraco for their work.....

sorry

i find in an open space u can get 80 feet... just... but when u start getting to that distance ur talkin binoculars...

On a clear day, I can get my rover to operate over 100 feet away, however the batteries were new, and I could hardly see it move.
