    Very excellent for a beginner drone although it doesn't have GPS it's a great training drone for the entry price before you move up.

    Very easy to use and beginner friendly. However for something in its price. I would say you get what you pay for. Its great as a drone however the camera is not on a gimbal so you don't get a smooth but choppy video. It does not have GPS so it wont be able to hold its position u always have to constantly keep controlling it to keep it steady. Battery life is terrible. However this got me outside and was able to get some cool birds eye view footage and that is good enough for me

    Besides the difficulty of getting the app to work. The drone is great! The pictures and video are clear. As long as the winds are light there's no trouble controlling it.
