Great entry-level drone for beginners
The media could not be loaded. Let me begin by saying that this is my first experience with one of these drones. I purchased it because I had some roof damage a year ago and I am still dealing with an insurance claim. I have a tarp on my second story roof that has shifted out of place a couple of times already and I wanted a quick way to check it regularly without having to pull out a heavy 30-foot ladder and climb up there every time (one time was scary enough). I figured one of these simple drones would get the job done safely and on a budget. I was right, sort of.The controller seems very intimidating when you hold it in your hands because of the number of buttons and features, but it comes with a great quick reference card that sits right on top of the controls. It is very helpful and you can operate the drone while the card is in place. Every remote-controlled toy should come with something like this. In order to use the drone to its fullest capabilities, you need to attach a cell phone (cell service is not required) and download their app. I used an old Android phone that is not currently connected and only works on Wi-Fi. You can then connect the phone to the drone via its own Wi-Fi network.The app is fairly clear, but there are several features that have descriptions in Chinese even though most features are in English. I found no way to change those Chinese ones to English and it is my only complaint about the product and the reason why I knocked off one star on the Remote Control rating. That should be a simple software update so if that ever happens, I will update that portion to 5 stars. It does not affect functionality in any way as the descriptions appear to be for music that you can add to video captured by the drone. At least, I assume that is what the feature is for. One other feature was in Chinese and I could not figure out what it did. Neither feature is described in the instructions either.The instructions are otherwise pretty good and only have a few grammatical/translation errors, but you can still understand the explanations. They describe the features, but by far the best instructions are the quick reference card I mentioned above.As for the drone itself, it is compact, foldable, lightweight and comes in a great carry case. The arms fold out easily and it comes with guards that snap in at the end of each arm to protect the propeller blades. While the package includes a couple of extra propeller blades, I do not recommend operating it without those guards. Those are a must and I will explain why.As I said, the drone is lightweight. That’s great for carrying it around but it makes it very difficult to control if there is even the slightest breeze. Thankfully, the joystick controls are very responsive and all of the buttons work well.I began by operating the drone in my living room and the air conditioner suddenly kicked on. The air from a nearby vent caused the drone to drift away and bump into a wall. Since the bumpers were attached, it gently bounced off the wall and continued hovering. That made me very cautious when I took it outside. There was a slight breeze on both days I that took it out. My yard has a cement wall on one side and a wooden fence on another, so I began by operating it near the corner. The app connected to the drone quickly, it started up perfectly and the camera quality is great when viewed on the phone.I tried flying up toward the roof and as soon as it got above the fence line it immediately fell victim to the wind. It was a struggle to navigate my yard which has tree branches, string lights and a pergola. I recommend flying it only in clear areas and when there is little to no breeze, but I suppose that is common sense. When operating it in the front yard I was able to go higher, but still struggled with directional controls. That is probably more attributed to my lack of experience with drone flight. I discovered “Headless Mode” which helped a bit. That shifts reference point of the controls to the drone’s position relevant to the operator than the direction in which the drone is facing. I read that this is a feature for beginners and I recommend staring with that turned on.The drone, like many entry-level drones, is not GPS enabled and does not have an automatic “return home” feature if it goes out of range or begins to run low on batteries. You need to be very aware of its distance from you and its battery life. I had about 15 minutes of flight time on a fully charged battery, which I have heard is fairly standard.I do not feel comfortable doing a thorough survey of my roof yet since some that will involve flying higher and perhaps losing sight of the drone as I circle my roof. I found myself focusing more on the position and distance of the drone that what was being displayed from the camera. That part is not a flaw of the product. I just need to practice a bit more and the weather has been too windy recently to allow that.I recommend this drone for beginners and the price point is great for this set of features, but if you are an advanced user with more complex or commercial applications in mind, this drone may not have the features and range that you need. For what it is and claims to be, it is worth the 5 stars and I have no regrets purchasing it.

Easy to fly and the most fun I've had with a drone!
The media could not be loaded. Let's get this out of the way; this drone was actually fun to use.I've played around with a good number of small drones and one reoccurring problem is that they tend to slide around, even without any wind. This means that you have to spend a good amount of attention correcting the drone, and if you're an amateur like me, this means a lot of crashes as you over correct or spin when you meant to go up or down. So you spend time working the drone, instead of enjoying it.However, there's no problems here. This drone is rock-steady. I put it at head height, walked around it, used the gesture controls to have it take a picture and some video (note: it only beeps when starting the video, not stopping it, so double check it stopped or you'll just end up starting another one). I even tried pushing it up from below a few times, and after a second it goes back to a stable position.Oh, and the flip functionality works great too; press a button, press a direction and the drone flips perfectly. ... though I recommend taking a step back before you hit the button!Anyway, now that you don't have to worry about stability, you can actually spend some time flying it. Just be aware: It has three speed settings and the difference between "slow" and "fast" caught me off guard. It's really fast. In somewhat-related news, despite it's small size and weight, it's pretty robust, and can handle a bounce off a wall or tree with no damage at all, though I think the propeller guards are mandatory for this.Speaking of propeller guards you get 4 as you'd expect, 2 pairs of spare propellers, plus the screws and screwdriver (a nice touch) to replace them individually. Also with the kit is the controller, which both came with a paper cheat sheet (another nice touch!), 2 rechargeable drone batteries plus a USB C to USB A charger cord, 3 AAA batteries for the controller (thanks for including them!), and two manuals, one for the normal operation and one for the app. Normally I wouldn't note those, but they really put some effort in; these were written without grammar or spelling errors and are genuinely useful!I averaged a little under 15 minutes flight time with each battery, and while I don't know how long they took to charge, the USB charger has a red LED that goes out when the battery is charged (yet another nice touch).The images and video are good quality, though since it uses wifi from your phone AND it moves pretty fast, it will take some practice to get smooth videos. I think you'll want to really get used to it before you go into VR mode!Last, when the drone gets low on batteries, it triggers a landing while your controller beeps at you to warn you. This is great too: I've had some drones just fall out of the sky when the battery is done, and well, that's not the best thing for them.So, it's packed full of features, it's fun to fly, it's got a long runtime, and when all is said and done, it's a really great drone.

Good value and works
My teen enjoys playing with her drone. Working much better than the cheap ones.

This is a nice toy!
The App could be better but it's an overall nice drone to capture aerial views once it's calibrated to stay put in one area and not follow overhead or come charging towards the operator. Very fast and good on movement.
