Need to learn more about it - but it looks to be a good quality drone

Don’t let the price fool you because this drone does a whole lot for the money. This drone is a lot more solid than I expected. The body and wings are solid than the drones with foldable wings. The battery life is great and both the drone and controller have rechargeable batteries which means no more disposable AA batteries. I am finding that this drone has a lot more capabilities than a entry level drone. Even though the price is a great entry level price the drone is much more than that.

The service was great. Called for info, got knowledgeable answers. Disappointed that Adorama was not carrying spare parts for my drone.

I was very excited when I got this drone. I had some experience with the black one I was looking forward to this one because of the visual window you can see for the camera. Unfortunately this was very hard to hover once you took off. Much harder than the black one. I tried to repair this issue by adjusting the trim and it got worse. Unfortunately I lost the drone on the first flight hi Cline good to get it out of danger from some trees in the wind caught it and when I try to adjust it I begin to lose it. I switched on the return home but it didn’t work it wouldn’t. I went into GPS holder and stay there to the battery ran out. They crashed in the woods behind the house. Don’t know why the aircraft or so and stable on the initial flight. The purchase of this The system was flawless and adorama did a great job. I think I just got a lemon. I would recommend to buyers A heavier system that is more expensive but stable. If I get another drone it will be from Adorama. Frankly I need one that has the ability to move the camera without moving aircraft. In short folks, pass on this one and go for a higher-quality model.

Solid, dependable, fun, and easy to fly. This was my first quadcopter and I could not believe how easy it was to learn and fly. I recommend this to drone hobbyists no matter the experience. It's an absolute joy to fly. Pros: Easy to fly, a surprising plethora of features for its price, quiet, looks cool Cons: Propellers can be quite squeaky

I like this drone very much it flew great the only thing to remember is to stay away from high power lines I lost my drone 2week ago when it flew out of control in to a dense area.

I purchased this drone for my college age son as a Christmas gift, since he enjoyed a very simple version that I my wife had purchased but that got damaged within the first week of use. The drone bought by my wife was an relatively inexpensive version but my son like it quite a bit. He was using is at a park when a younger child asked to try it out. My son let the kid fly it and the drone ended up buried in the bushes. After some time to find it and retrieve the drone it was not the same. Thus I bought this upgraded version and it is light years better than the other drone. It worked very well and my son had it calibrated in no time. He got comfortable with the controls very quickly. Also my son, wife and I were very surprised about the quality of the video which was great. My son actually enjoys going out to fly the drone with us parents included in the outing, thus a double benefit. Also we still have more of the features of this drone to learn how to use, thus many more outings to come.

Worth it for under 200.00!!

Flies great. Return to home is great feature and lands within about 3 feet of where it took off. Range is close to advertised, and cheap simple mods will take it much further. Takes decent pictures but camera could be alot better. Only has 2mp. This results in scenic photos coming out a bit grainy and muted. There is a gimbal available to lift a nicer camera, but nothing more than a go pro.l

Fun right out of the box. Gps mode is great for a new flier to learn. Do your homework about LiPo battery risk. Lots to think about and plan for with those.

A couple of things to be aware for beginners: 1) Blades come in two boxes of 4 each. But neither box should be used as a set. You need 2 from the A box and 2 from the B box, 2) Calibration instructions for mode 2 and mode 1 were not included in the box, You may need to download a newer instruction manual online, 3) The microSD card for pictures/video recording goes in the copter, not the controller. 4) Make sure return to home is off on the controller, or you will not leave the ground, 5) We updated the software for both devices before first flight, GPS mode was impressive, with stable hover in 10 mph winds. Return to home flew up first, the landed gently at the starting point, 6) i highly recommend rechargeable batteries for the controller.

Gift for my son, which is very happy to get a 'very good' starter drone.

An excellent drone, with outstanding performance and features and performance for the money. There are, however, a few things a new owner should be aware of. The software on the drone and controller are not up-to-date, and the older software has some significant bugs that can quite easily lead to a crash. After updating however the drone performs flawlessly.

The quad works great,I like the return home feature and the GPS.the only negative I could think of is the battery installation,It's a bit difficult to remove from the quad,you have to actually pull it out by it's wires and overtime these wires may break,otherwise everything is good,including the price.I would highly recommend it.Adorama also delivered it within 5 or 6 days.

I think this is definitely the best AUV for the money. I purchased it as a gift for my son. I flew it a few times before wrapping it up and I love it! Not much to dislike about it except the transmitter eats AA batteries and that problem can easily be fixed by using a lipo battery with a JST connector. Also there are mods available for increased range. 1080p video is very smooth considering it has no gimbal.

It’s a great starting point for learning the basics. GPS makes a huge difference. Very nice machine.
