My Carden Cuda wth a full tank of fuel will fly for 20 mins easy,,,,many, miles,,,,,that is why modern radios have failsafe, this enables you to know, if you lose contact with your craft it will power down & gravity will keep it within a much more manageable safe flight area,,,,,There are always risks, and even clubs have troubles at times,,,,mitigate your risks, think about how to keep your flight safe,,,seek advise on equipment and safe places to fly,,,,,
