200-meter height limit
5000-meter max flight distance
3 speedsFast 8m/s, Mid 4m/s, Slow 2m/s

This could be caused by one of three things
1. You may be within an airport no-fly zone (within 8Km of major airports) or you may have no GPS lock. Move out of the no-fly zone to begin.

3. You have not cached a map. Connect to the internet and download the map for your area.
