V-Coptr Falcon with 50mins Long Flight Time - V-shaped Bi-copter, Drones with 4K Video for Adults 3-Axis Gimbal, with 7km Transmission Distance and Obstacle Avoidance, Drones by ZERO ZERO ROBOTICS,Black

The media could not be loaded. Get this drone if you want to fly. The two motor design brings this drone 50% closer to a mini-helicopter than a quad drone. The flight characteristics are different from quad drones. The flight experience is more enjoyable and thrilling than other drones I have used, given it is not an FPV drone. This drone is not for those that look for the best camera for photos and videos, extra zoom, great aperture, or auto exposure.What works1. Great flight capabilities, able to create stunning videos that focus on the flight experience. The drone performs trick shots well. It orbits a point of interest with precision. The diameter of orbit can be smaller than quads. Panning is smooth. Revealing is very stable. The 4K camera is more than enough.2. The battery lasts longer than all the drones I used or tested before. Other drones advertise 30 to 40 minutes of flight time. The actual flight time before the incessant beeping about low battery warning is usually 15 minutes to 25 minutes out of the advertised 30 to 40 minutes, respectively. This last at least 40 minutes out of the 50 minutes advertised, effectively double the actual flight time of other drones. It is great for spotting in the wide or monitoring for work.3. It's light, small, and easy to carry.What needs improvement1. The learning curve for the app is steep. It is not intuitive, and some features in the app are strange.2. It takes a while to learn all the features.3. Too many buttons.4. Need a case that combines the drone and the controller.Great flying experience. Not a camera-focused drone.

On the first flight, the drone malfunctioned and flew erratically with no input from the controller.Attempts to contact support failed. Emails bounced and phone calls said "This number has been disconnected."This was to be my second of these, and the first is very impressive and works great. However, with zero support from the manufacturer, I can't recommend getting one.

I own several drones (quads) and bought the V-Coptr Falcon for the ingenious design and the 50 minutes battery. It looks like the Star Trek Enterprise.I load the flying App, installed the Flykit in my computer and update the firmware. After calibrating the IMU and the Compass, I take the Falcon for a spin. The first problem that I found was the phone app. Every 3 or 5 minutes it crashes, leaving me in the dark without the necessary telemetry and vision. Definitely the phone app needs some work. Not very responsive and it crashes.The collision avoidance system is too much aggressive, making very difficult to fly the drone back.Because the design, it swings like a hammock when the winds blows.The RTH landing lacks of precision, missing the spot by 6 - 8 feet.Even with 50 minutes battery, the range from the take off site is very short.After 3 more flying tests, I returned it. I was afraid to crash the drone with all the moving parts that have in the motors. Yes, too many moving parts in the motors that can fail. I would keep it, but not for $899.00 USD, taking in consideration that is a 2019 drone. I considered this drone in the $500 - $700 range.

The media could not be loaded. Creativity rises from innovations. The unique drone flight experience has given me new thoughts on what a drone could do and why I need one.FLIGHT TIME50mins non-stop flying defines the drone experience, especially the first few times. This is my third drone, not counting the number of sports cameras that I had over the years. I would say lack of enough time to test the basic moves, fly out and back and shoot some total amateur footage was the number one reason I got stuck at the first mile. Once you run out of battery, it means another 30-45mins wait time until a second chance. So having more flight time means you could get yourself equipped with sufficient knowledge before going out for a shooting or playing day.PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTs:[Noise control] Thanks to the 2 two propeller arms design, now we finally have a drone that does not have a "take-off scene", which is more crowd friendly.[Stabilization] Also when doing a full brake or start, the main body swings back and forth a little, but it does not affect the video recording at all. Also when the drone is moving, the whole drone seems locked into a moving position and flies as stable as a 4-arm drome.[Controller] Super easy to set up, works the same as most remote controllers do. Come with a compact design that you could unscrew the thumbstick and store it at the back of the controller, which makes it ultimately backpack friendly.Overall, I very much enjoyed taking out the drone to explore remote places so far. Definitely looking forward to more sessions. I would recommend this drone to someone who would like to try new products and explore the fun but not complexity of leading-edge technology.
