Height and distance are the same for it.
I am using the standard frSky module, so the range is 2.5 km.
If you get a DragonLink module, the range is 30 km.
Flight time depends on what you build... the motor speed, motor size, weight of the craft, and size of the propellers.
Larger the props, the more lift you get. It also means slower motors.
Faster motors means smaller props, you won't get the lift, but you will get agility, and you won't be bothered by wind as much.
More motors, the greater the lift, but also greater the battery usage.
Bigger the battery, the more it weighs, and that can impact flight time. For example, 2650 mah 4S battery can fly my quad for 12 minutes. Using a 5000mah (just about 2x the size) gets me 18 minutes. This is because the bigger battery adds an extra 300 grams weight to the craft.
Generally speaking, flight times will be anywhere from 6 minutes to 25 minutes. Just depends on the purpose of your craft and what you're doing with it.
If you made a very lightweight multicopter with large propellers and 500kv motors, I'm sure you could do 30 minutes. But then you wouldn't be lugging around a GoPro on it.
My quad (seen in the video) does 8-12 minutes.
Quads don't usually go much faster than around 45 mph. If you want speed, get a plane instead (You can use the same hardware too, just transfer your FC, TX, etc over).
