The actual transmission distance depends on the local communications standards. Under some common regulatory bodies, examples of the transmission range is as follows: 
FCC: 8km 
CE/MIC: 5km 
SRRC: 5km

GIMBAL CAMERA

1. What is the resolution of the FPV camera?

608*448.

2. What gimbal cameras are compatible with the M200 Series V2 drones?

Zenmuse X4S/X5S/X7/XT/XT2/Z30.

3. What dual gimbal combinations are supported by the M210 V2/M210 RTK V2?

Please refer to the following for an explanation of how to properly mount your dual gimbal configuration. Left and right is determined from the perspective of looking directly at the drone from the front. 
Right gimbal port: Zenmuse X4S/X5S/X7/XT/XT2/Z30, 
Left gimbal port: Zenmuse XT/Z30.

4. Can the two downward gimbal cameras be controlled simultaneously on the M210 V2/M210 RTK V2?

Yes, you can control the gimbal angles of both payloads and take still photos or videos using both.

5. Which gimbal cameras are supported in the upward gimbal mount of the M210 V2/M210 RTK V2 drones?

The upward gimbal port supports the Zenmuse X4S/X5S/X7/XT/XT2/Z30.

6. What upward+downward gimbal configurations are supported by the M210 V2/M210 RTK V2 drones?

Upward gimbal mount: Zenmuse X4S/X5S/X7/XT/XT2/Z30. 
Left downward gimbal port: Zenmuse XT/Z30.

7. Can the upward and downward gimbal cameras be controlled simultaneously on the M210 V2/M210 RTK V2?

No.

8. Can I adjust the FPV camera's angle using the remote controller?

After running the firmware v01.00.03.00, the tilt of the FPV camera can be adjusted by pressing the C2 button and the left dial (only when the C2 button's function is "undefined". This function will not be available if C2 has any other custom functions)
