    Great for beginners to learn control of drones. Easy to fly and if it gets away the remote has a emergency off that stops the drone.

    My grandson is finding this to be an easy to learn and fly. The camera is of a good quality, and takes great pictures - above what he would have expected for a unit of this size and price. He had no trouble assembling this Protocol VideoDrone. He found it very intuitive in assembly and flight.

    This is a decent drone for the price. It is fairly easy to fly, not as easy as those with GPS but.... good for the price.

    I love this drone. I use it inside my house more than outside. The wind carries it being to small. So, it's hard to control outside with high winds. I like using inside my house. The only downfall is the battery doesn't last long. I had to purchase another extra battery for backup

    A small drone easy to use for the beginner flyer. Gives at least an hour of flying time between charges.

    This drone will take off, hover, & land by its-self; It will do tricks, take video or pics. I always fly it on speed setting 3, & the batteries that came with it last about 2 minutes. Maybe they will send me some new ones now. If it will fly for at least 5 minutes with new or better batteries, I'd recommend it. If its only going to fly for 2 minutes at a time, then I wouldn't waste your money!!!

    Not the best drone, but for the price it works great for kids. Much easier to take off and land than many other drones.
