No need to register, POWERUP 3.0 weight is less than 0.53 oz/15 grams, the FAA requires registration for drones that weigh 0.5 lb/250 grams or more.
POWERUP 3.0 is designed to cut power once the airplane loses communication, this is typically in the range up to 200 feet. POWERUP 2.0 is not controlled but will usually fly in circles around you until it lands. We highly recommend to avoid flying on windy days. Wind may carry away your airplane until it lands. Also avoid flying next to trees and buildings.
For the best experience and precise and smooth flight maneuvers it is best to fly on a non-windy day, alternatively a closed space like a gym or atrium is ideal.
Yes you can. POWERUP 3.0 is much more fun to fly with friends. Try a dog fight or coordinated aerobatic formation. The Bluetooth signal does not interfere, you can fly as many Darts as you like together.
