Q: Why doesn't the battery hub charge
A: When using the charging hub, please make sure to plug into the Type-C port. The charging hub charges the batteries one by one, prioritizing the battery with higher remaining power. Once a battery is fully charged, its indicator light will turn off. Also, could you please try the following tips to see if they help? 1. Make sure you are using a 9V/12V adapter that supports fast charging protocols. 2. Ensure that the charging cable is working properly and firmly plugged in. Using another USB-C charging cable to have a try. 3. Please check the battery terminals/connections, verify the charging hub for damage or loose connectors.

I’ve considered buying a drone for a while, and searched for one that was easy to use, yet could grow with me as my skills advanced. From simply having fun flying one, I wanted to be able to survey the area around me. Things like inspecting my roof and chimney, wildlife, nature and local events. I wasn’t happy with the cheap ones that were really toys, but rather wanted something that was capable and fun to fly. The Snaptain P40 hit the mark perfectly! It’s affordable and well made. It’s light enough to carry, and doesn’t require FAA licensing. The supporting videos made it easy to be flying quickly. It took a couple of minutes to lock onto the satellites, and it was ready. I started in beginner mode, and was thrilled how easy it was to fly. It was a breezy day, and even with 10mph gusts it remained stable. I love the features like hover and follow me. Return to home worked really well. Worth noting is that it doesn’t have obstacle avoidance. You’ll also need to purchase an SD card for recording. The included carry case neatly holds everything and includes spare blades just in case. I opted for the 3-battery version so I could extend my flying time. Traveling to a destination for an afternoon of flying is a lot more fun with spares ready to go. I recommend this drone for anyone that wants to get into the fun of flying. It’s easy to learn and avoids the frustrations of buying something less capable. Suitable for a beginner like me, to anyone looking to get more out of a drone.

After recently purchasing the P30 Snaptain drone and being very happy with it, I had to get the P40 Lite version with it's 3 batteries. I am so glad that I did. I have always wanted to own a drone, but the cheap ones that I have bought in the past were worthless. Snaptain changed my mind GOOD and AFFORDABLE drones! This drone was nothing like I had bought or seen in the past. Immediately right out of the box, I was very impressed with the case for this product. I know that I can keep all of the parts together, even spare parts, and pack it around without having to worry if it is being crushed. Absolutely essential item! The understanding of calibration and other technical items such as the app, wasn't even a bit confusing at all, just make sure that you read the whole manual before you start flying. There's even videos showing exactly how to fly the dtone and knowing all the controls. This drone is definitely easy to fly after your ready to go and the pictures are fantastic! Everything works better than I expected. Some really cool features too. I'm way passed the beginner mode but that is great for first time flyers. When you're ready to really use this to its limits you have to go in the settings to change it and save the settings. Very simple! Overall I really love this drone and for the price you can't go wrong!

I recently picked up this drone as a finale effort to figure out how to fly one. I have had cheap ones (more toy grade) to mid tier ones and all of them ended up crashing into things or flying out of control. This was because of user error and not being able to fully control them. I set everything up and set the drone down on a flat level surface. I turned everything on and followed the one screen tutorial. This tutorial showed how to use the drone and get comfortable with it. If you are new to this do not skip these steps as it really makes a difference. Also the drone is setup for novice mode which was also perfect. You can change the settings through your connected phone when you get more comfortable. In novice mode the drone operates at a slower more controlled speed. This was very helpful as the controls are precise, but are not so speedy that it becomes unpredictable. In the other operating modes this drone can get really fast and move quickly, however this was a little to much for me and I went back to novice mode to get more familiar with the controls. Taking off and landing can be difficult but with this drone its just a push of a button. There is even an option to have the drone auto return home (back to where it took off). This was great as a few times I lost sight of the drone and didn't want to figure out how to get it back home. This drone will also automatically return home if the battery gets to low or you loose signal with the drone. Also in the app is a Map view that shows an arial map and where the drone is on that map. Makes it easy to see where you are flying when its out of view. This map can also be used to help find the drone if it crashes/becomes lost. There are other options like having the camera follow or parallel follow you automatically. I was unable to test this option in novice mode but from the app it looked like just a tap of the screen would start the process. The camera works great and took some very nice high quality photos. The camera controls are very simple to use on the remote. You have a way to move the camera up and down. There are two buttons on the remote one to snap a picture and another to record a video. You can also use your cell phone screen to snap photos or take videos. The video I took also turned out great with limited to no shaking due to me jerking the controls around.. There are also some other manual controls for the camera settings, but I just left them on auto until I get better at operating everything. I did try to download the photos and videos directly from the drone to my phone, but the transfer process was a little slow. This is mostly due to the file size of the large video/pictures, so instead I just removed the SD card and inserted into my computer for faster downloading. There are extra blades, screws, and even blade guards included with this kit. The blades while thin are pretty stout and held up to crashing into the house, but it is nice to have a second set. The runtime is a little limited and I got about 25 minutes. Not horrible, but I was having so much fun that I just wanted the battery to last a little longer. You can easily swap out batteries and snaptain has them for purchase. There is so much that this drone offers and for a user like me I totally love it. I actually feel way more comfortable with using this drone than I have any of my other ones. I cant wait to get to a more advance mode, but for now its fun to play with in the novice setting. Overall this is a great drone for anyone looking as its super easy to fly and get use to and takes great photos and videos!
