I’ve only had my new mini 2, up 3 times so far. Just from my back garden. The second time I flew it into the rotary washing line. Thankfully no damage when I retrieved it from the muddy grass 
this 3rd time nearly got attacked by pigeons. 
. Been as high as 200ft. Which at the moment for a complete newbie is a bit scary. As I’ve seen the reports of the mini not responding to controls. To even think of going a mile or something like that is really scary.
(Yes I know we have to keep it in sight)
I suppose as I get more used to it and my confidence grows I will be more at ease with it.
Can’t wait to get out in a field or somewhere where I can master the controls a bit more.
