First drone and man this is fun!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been interested in trying out my hand at using a drone but of course starting out big and expensive is not the way to go for someone with zero experience like myself so I got this little guy. First day I had it, I flew it into a tree and it came out unscathed, which shocked me. Granted I did not fly it fast or high as I was still getting used to the controls but once I started to get the hang of it, I got a little bolder in terms of height and distance! I have not been able to test out all of the features given when I finally get home its already starting to get dark (also flying at night is a no go for obvious reasons) For starters, while it is made mostly of plastic, it can take a few hits and keep crusing along and the propeller blades are just as sturdy! It is a pretty basic "starter" unit with an age range of 14+. Inside the box you get the drone, 1 battery (fly time is estimated at around 25 min), controller, carrying bag, extra set of propeller blades and an orange colored felt circular landing/take off mat. The camera is 2k and while it is not the best, it does a decent job at taking distance photos /video but close up it leaves something to be desired. You can take photos and video that either store on your phone or on the SD card (not included) that is inserted into the battery compartment. You can fly it with either just the controller or to unlock all the other features, you will need to connect your smart phone to it but a word of warning. I have an iPhone 15 ProMax and the slot which holds the phone does not expand enough when there is a case installed. Luckily I still had an older Samsung S7 Edge laying around and the fit is perfect. Take off and landing is simple and can be done with 1 or 2 presses on the phone screen or using the sticks on the controller. Contixio claims a max distance of 1700ft and max height of 396 ft but it will take me awhile to feel comfortable reaching anything near those numbers plus 400ft is the max height allowed by the FAA in uncontrolled airspace and with that being said, I have to recommend an app called Air Aware (free) on the app stores. This uses your GPS position and tells you what air space you are in (controlled vs uncontrolled) and other important information about the area you want to fly in so fly responsibly as one can get into a world of trouble if they are uninformed on local regulations. Also, get your TRUST certificate as it is required to legally fly a drone for recreational purposes. It is a pretty basic common sense course that is free online and is set up where you will not fail. I plan on upgrading at some point as it seems this is a 2nd version of the model and I was looking to purchase another battery but on the Contixio site , the only parts I could find were for the 1st model and the batteries do not appear to be interchangable.
