    Not the greatest with flying. I found that I have to consistently fight the yaw to keep it flying straight and will often steer itself away. Camera is decent though. 2/10 would not recommend.

    A great inexpensive drone to get started with.

    This is good basic inexpensive drone to get started with. This is not a high end drone and you shouldn't expect it to be one for this price point. When I opened the box, it was packaged nicely, It came with a spare battery, extra propellers, and was easy to get ready to fly. I charged the battery, and put batteries that were not included into the controller, then followed the instructions for my first flight. It was easy to take off and learn to fly it. There are buttons on the controller to help control the camera, take pictures, and an area for your phone to sit so you can have a first person view. There is even a button on the controller to make the drone do a flip, making you look like you know what you're doing.There are a couple of different speed modes and I recommend that you start with the slower one until you get used to it. The drone has lights on it, a blue and a red light to help you know which direction that the drone is flying in. I could get 8-10 minutes out of a battery charge and was happy with that. This is a fun drone that will get you into the hobby without spending a lot of money. Overall it is a great drone for the price and lots of fun.

    Drone Not Compatible with iOS

    Nice drone (and included accessories) for the price. It was very easy for my 6 and 11 year old, first time flyers to control. Battery life is approx 15 min but it comes with two batteries so we had the second one ready as soon as the first one went out. Unfortunately, the drone would not connect to the app (iOS) so we were not able to use the camera/photo/video features. After further checking of other reviews, this is a very common issue. You cannot reach anyone at the customer service numbers provided for Snaptain so we ended up returning it to the store.
