Good gift for 12yr old
I gave this drone to my 12yr old grandson. He was delighted, and sent me photos the next day from the drone flying high over an industrial park. I was impressed that it was so easy for him to set up and fly. Not sure how well it will hold up in the long run, but out of the box - it was a winner.

Completely satisfied, and no regrets!
I bought this as a gift for my husband on our 1 year anniversary. He uses it a lot, lol. He loves how easy it is to fly and that it takes video and pics while doing so. Remember that it's camera is not as clear as a smartphone but it's the memories that matter. The video is in color and people are recognizable in it. Also it is easy to connect to a laptop computer to retrieve the pics and videos. The drone itself is durable. My husband has hit a few tiny tree branches and it has not broken. The box gives you extra parts in case anything breaks. Remember to let the battery cool down before you charge it again for 1 full hour. Definitely read the instructions to learn how to calibrate it. The size of the drone is just right. Oh, and it has lights which really help to know which way is front and back. Happy flying!

My first drone - I like it
I bought this to support a school science club so I could be more knowledgeable and better prepared. It fulfilled the need. Easy to fly, first-time jr high students flew it easily. I didn't research well enough; I thought I could get real-time video, but instead it stores images and video on a chip to be viewed later. If I could do it over, I'd spend less for one without video, or more for first-person video. I bought extra batteries from Protocol (you get a 25% discount coupon), because 7-8 min of battery life goes by pretty quick.
