Hubsan X4 AIR H501A Plus WIFI FPV Brushless With 1080P HD Camera GPS Waypoint RC Quadcopter(H501A+HT011A)

Having had cheaper drones I always wanted something better and I was not dissapointed .The drone come in an attractive box with a picture of the drone and controller so makes an exciting gift. Its well packaged and unpacking it reveals the drone on top with propellors in boxes to the side along with a the charger and batteries and controller below.The drone is really well made. Its made of strong stuff and looks very attractive in black and gold. its just the right size, big enough to impress but not too big to be portable. the controller has a really professional feel to it.The one thing I had trouble with with this drone was setting up the phone with the controller and it took me a few attempts before I sorted it out.IMPORTANTYou must download the Hubsan App on your phone and insert a memory card in the drone (not included)1, First switch on the drone by inserting the battery.2, next switch on controller3, Switch on your phone and go to WiFi settings and MAKE SURE YOU CONNECT TO THE CONTROLLER NOT THE DRONE AS I KEPT DOING.4. Follow on screen prompts and your ready to fly.The drone works like a dream. It has GPS control so unlike cheap drones does not whizz all over the place, it auto takes off and hovers about 6 foot in the air. You have complete control with this drone. it performs really well and I have had it so high in the sky I can no longer see it relying on the display on the phone. It has good speed if you need it and operates really smoothly. i have flow this thing in a steady wind at 70 meteres high and it still remained solid as a rock. The orbit mode is great and so is the follow me mode which is lots of fun and makes filming a walk possible.It has a huge range and the battery life is about 18-20 mins even on a cold winters day.The Video qaulity is really exceptional, think really good Blu Ray.Stuck in a lockdown I have been unable to take it anywhere to let it really spread its wings but this is a perfect drone that does everything and does it really well and I cant see I could ever need anything better.I am very pleased with this drone and after lockdown ends I cant wait to take it to some really scenic places.Well worth the money and delivery was the next day.Perfect drone. if you have a budget of under £200 and want a really top pro drone then this is for you, Buy it you wont be dissapointed.

I am new to the drone market. Before this purchase, I purchased a lot less expensive Snaptain model and sent it back as the overall quality was inadequate and the battery life was awful.When this Hubsan drone first arrived you could see straight away that quality was far more superior than the less expensive Snaptain model. Look up reviews on YouTube and you’ll see what I’m talking about.I took it for my first flight today and was very impressed. Auto take off function works well and the drone just hovers in front of you and does not fly off. It was quite windy too and I felt confident in taking higher than 50mtrs in altitude to see how it coped. The return home function took a while, but I’m not sure if that was because it was windy! I did have problems getting into orbit mode for some reason. But the waypoint mode and follow mode worked a treat.I will provide further updates as I learn more about this drone. But so far I am very impressed.Update: After a few more flights. I’ve now worked out the return follow me, orbit functions. My phone was connected to the drone Wi-fi rather than the transmitters Wi-fi. This was due to the way I set the drone up initially. I’ve now disconnected from the drones Wi-fi completely and this has solved the problem. Everything now works fine.This drone is amazing. Even on a pretty windy day.Update: I’ve emailed the company explaining what happened as I feel the drone was “faulty”! I was flying the drone at an altitude of 30mtrs and it was about 20mtrs away from when I all of a sudden lost control and it went tearing into the trees at high speed. I used the last known GPS coordinations to try and find it, with no success. I had plenty of battery and signal was good as it wasn’t that far away from me. It was like someone had taken control of it.I’ve now received a response from the seller who has offered to resolve the issue promptly.

We have not received any further information.I was asked to remove negative feedback prior to good will gesture would be sent.Advised by Amazon they could remove this feedback, information was sent on.Very disappointedExcellent return service and credit from Amazon

I was looking forward to trying the drone out after watching numerous videos which I was very impressed with. The price is very good for this level drone. Having said that there are a few teething problems I have found. I have had issues with connecting to the drone via my phone connected to the transmitter, the drone so far will not return to home/start position. I could not get the drone to switch off once landed I had to let the battery run out. There is no way I have found of checking the battery percentage in the transmitter, which is a pain. If any other person has any information I would be grateful to hear

No le funciona el WIFI

Purtroppo dopo 5 secondi che era decollato si è spento a 1 metro di altezza e ha perso definitivamente il collegamento con il telecomando.Non sono più riuscito a collegarlo . Ho fatto il reso

Product arrived quickly, very happy with it. You can't beat this drone at its price point.I recommend upgrading to get the ht011 transmitter.

So far it’s a pretty awesome drone for the price. A couple of the motors squealed from day one intermittently though. Vertical punch seems pretty awesome but this being my first brushless drone I don’t have any firsthand basis of comparison. Waypoint and orbit modes work flawlessly but after 5-6 tries to get “follow me” to work, it never has. It exits out within seconds. Camera quality is pretty good with the included lens filter. Starts to lose connection to my phone at about 100 meters.*** Changed my review to 5 stars as the follow me mode now works after upgrading my fc & rx firmware! Was keeping tight track of me while on my mountain bike at full speed making sharp turns. Excellent!

Arrived a day earlier then expected. plugged in the charger and the battery for the drone and it started to smoke as soon as it was plugged in. The battery on the wifi extender did charge completely with no issues. Too bad it looked solid. I heard some complaints about the lights being too bright but that is just dumb .. you need the lights to be bright to fly it its advertised distance. Came with extra blades but one was already broken. Maybe it was broken during packaging. Hubsan provides an extra 4 blades I guess due to such instances. So never got to try it out due to battery issues so cannot comment on the flight controls etc. Seriously lacking in the instructions to flying with the software as the instructions are nil. Turns out I watched and wasted a bunch of time on youtube watching review videos of the product that had included some detail. OF most notable part of review is that I went to Hubsan website. Went on to the support page for Hubsan and advised of the battery and other issues and there has been ZER0 attempt via email or telephone to contact me to discuss a remedy. So its now on its way back. 2 good to be true= 2 bad I wasted my time.
