I will purchase this in the spring and cannot wait to start training. The beginner mode and the gps return to home features are incredible.

Do you know if it will sense that it is reaching the end of its battery life and take control so it can return to home base before losing power?

We did the same, and could stay entertained all afternoon without structured athletics or parental guidance. It was a wonderful time of children's imagination and building social skills. However, we were pretty sick....we would mount our Kites at the peak with single edge razor blades and try to cut the main kite line, or put them on the tails......dangerous as hell coming down, but we also had dirt clod wars where we would pick sides dig trenches and have full fledged wars throwing dirt clods at each other. We would also shoot our bb guns at other people's kites.......regular JDs. Today a kid would be charged with a felony for shooting a bb gun at a kite.

Lol... Nearly the same. Red clay field... tons of rocks. Some even glassed their lines. We often evolved into ground war.
