I was happy with the prompt delivery and the packaging. My son has enjoyed it. At first it didn't work right but we were able to troubleshoot the problem. If I had any complaint, it is not as big as I thought it was going to be. Overall pleased though.

This mid sized drone is great for indoors or if light winds outside. Picture and video quality is good. I did not have any connecting problems. I found a welcomed spare parts kit not needed yet due to great prop guards. overall a great drone!

It took me a few tries to get the calibration right. But, it's been fun to fly. Still crash it often but getting the hang of it. It is smaller than I was expecting but can handle small crashes. I like that it came with extra parts.

Got this for my son and he really likes it, good take off and landing according to him. His only complaint was it was very light and the wind would tip sometimes
I haven't had a chance to play with it yet so I guess that's a good sign

Handles nicely in places where GPS signal unavailable. Camera resolution VGA. Battery life necessarily limited. Fun to fly, maneuvers keenly. Rolls over but doesn't play dead. Great survivability. Good trainer. Appropriate price point.

Bought this drone for my grandsons' birthday. The look on his face when hi opened the gift was priceless. He instantly removed it from the box and began to use it. It didn't take him long to master it. It was a good choice,

I have not had the chance to fly it much outdoors because it has been windy and it is hard to maneuver. However, indoors it is pretty steady. Battery don't last too long and camera does not work too well in low light.

I bought this drone for my grandson. He is 6 years old and only takes several minutes to control it. Overall very good. The only thing I do not like is the duration of batery which is approximately 7 minutes

The camera works very well my brother is a tech genius and gave the stamp of approval. You have to get used to the controls but once you do it's smooth sailing.. Plus I love the ease of purchasing online

This little drone is probably one of your best choices for this price point especially when it goes on sale. With a flight time of roughly ten minutes, you have just enough time to play a little bit or learn to fly between charges, but it is definitely worth it. Comes with a low resolution front facing, fixed camera - probably about the same as your average phone camera excluding newer models. Offers balance control and all in all a great buy for some fun.

My son was so happy to get a drone and one with a camera. We charge it up an start playing and the battery goes dead. Didn't even get to controlling it good and dead battery. So you charge for an hour and you get maybe 6 minutes of fly time.

The drone worked well out of the box with minimal adjustments required. Be careful of the distance. Has a tendency to lose control when out of range. Camera is clear and works well

I bought this for my 9 year old son. There is a bit to get this going with the remote. 4 steps just to start the motors. It was a slight wind bout 10mph and we were not able to play with it outside. We tried in the house but I crashed into the Christmas tree. HAHA but it kept on working. The FLIP feature is about all I was able to try do to limited space but it worked even at a low hover of 5-6 feet. I didn't get to see any pictures or video so can not comment on that. It does come with extra parts. We crashed into the recliner, the tree, couple walls, couch, and the thing didn't break a prop or anything. Wish I would have bought myself one.

About what was expected. A small drone best suited for indoor flight. It flies pretty good for the price but don't expect long flights on the tiny battery. If you can fly this you can easily fly one of the larger GPS enabled drones.

Nice drone but it needs zero wind. It is very fragile. My son had 3-4 runs with it before it tangled with a tree. We only had a small slight breeze. It's a lot of fun otherwise!

Overall great first time drone for the price. Smaller than I thought and a little bit of hassle when plug into pc to watch video. But other than that I would recommend.

Fun drone. Takes a bit to get the handle down. Only gripe is the battery is poor. Almost 7 minutes of flight per charge.
