It has a safety feature where the motors will stop spinning if it loses contact with the controller. So, yea.. It will drop from the sky and be lost forever.

The range is several hundred feet in an open field. And, for most of them, the FPV video will get really fuzzy before you lose control. Most pilots, from what I am reading, use that as an early warning to turn around and come back.

Because you have to cut through all the crappy drone and expensive sundial post to get to the good stuff. Sometimes things get overlooked.
