    Wanted an entry level drone to see how it all worked before jumping in at a high price. this works great for a low cost entry level unit. Would be good for kids as well.

    Loved it when in use but battery life is too short! Must keep recharging and takes long . Must be careful when in use. For the price or cost is good for a beginner

    While it was user error, I was SO disappointed that on the 1st attempt at flying the drone, my 14 year old managed to lose it when a burst of wind came up and carried it off.

    This drone is compact and fun to fly around. It's nothing serious but it's ok for tricks or anything of that sort.

    Protocol's VideoDrone flies, kind of, managed by a clunky controlling device, and takes so-so quality still images and video. Documentation is lacking, so be prepared to stare at instruction clips on YouTube. Overall construction seems kind of flimsy, which is unfortunate in a device that is bound to crash frequently and hard. On the other hand, mine is still functioning after a few weeks of mishaps and pilot errors. The unit really has limited utility, but it's an unquestionably cheap way to learn about the fundamentals of operating a beater drone.

    Really just a toy not a serious drone. About 5 minutes of run time is all you get. Got it cheap so not bad for a little fun.
