The media could not be loaded. First off this drone is so much fun. Flying it safe is fun!! This drone is very easy to operate. Take your time. Use the beginners settings. This will allow the drone to not go very high or far at all until you are comfortable with it. It wasn’t very long until I turned it off and I got this drone up to 345 feet up in the air. I recommend getting an SD card when you purchase this drone. You do not want to miss the photo and video opportunity while practicing to use your drone. The drone records the video on the drone so that’s why the video has very little or no clipping to it and it’s so clear. I operate this drone with my iPhone 16 Pro and I have three batteries for the drone so I can fly for extended time with an obvious break to change the battery in 30-40 mins. The picture I took was just a screenshot while the drone is hovering at 273 feet up in the air looking at I 295 in Jacksonville, Florida. The video is recorded midday, so it’s as sunny as it could possibly be and look at that beautiful video. I am absolutely blown away that this is just a $200 drone ain’t no way. I love the controller. The joysticks make it so easy. Keep one thumb on each joystick and your left pointer finger will control the camera tilt. I am 44 years old and I feel like a little kid so excited over this thing. I excited go fly it every time both batteries are finally charged up again. I did buy a third battery for even longer flight time. You just have to come back and change out the battery and you can takeoff again. One thing I’m trying to practice doing is going between trees. It seems scary on video but this drone is super small and I’m flying between two trees 10 feet apart. I highly recommend taking your drone to a big open field to practice maneuvering it around before taking it up to 2 to 300 feet but up there you’re likely to not hit a thing.. at 200 feet. I am higher than the trees, billboards and those really crazy tall lights some cities have along the interstate exits. If you happen to be still reading this, thank you. Another thing that factor in my decision on purchasing this drone was the price. After purchasing my first drone which was less than $100 and I crashed it three times and I didn’t do a thing but try to launch it. I figured I will take a chance and buy a drone that was at least $200 because I figured it might be a better drone and I am right. I think my only one complaint on this drone is the amount of time it gives me the permission to take off. I realized it has to connect to several GPS satellites before it will give you permission to take off and that can take some time depending on your location.

I've tried little cheap stunt drones before and I wouldn't make it 5 feet without crashing it. I was skeptical after reading about it's features with auto take off and auto hover etc.. well I'll say this. You can't ask for much better. After setting it up. Your phone fits very nice in the remote. And unlike others I seen. You don't have to charge the remote or hook up to the phones wi fi. I set it on the ground after reading instructions. Hit take off button and thought. Oh boy this is scary I'm gonna crash it.. And just like that it flew up 2 meters and hovered perfectly still. Wow ok. So I thought alright let's take it up I can't hit anything there. And straight up it went. When you let off the remote it instantly stops where it's at and hovers perfectly. It's very very easy to fly. And if you get confused or sketchy. Just let off and get your bearings. Also the screen shows what direction your going. And also has a small pip screen of a Google map that's right on the money accurate. Including changing the scheme of the map like Google does.So before you take off the thing reads exactly where it took off from. And we first I got freaked out it was too far away and panicked. Although there was no reason to. Either or. I hit the return button.. and I'll be. By itself it came back and landed 1 foot from where it took off. I use this all the time and it works every time. It even comes back if it knows there's not enough battery left to make it back if it goes further. It's great. All this was very helpful while learning to fly it. After about 5 times up. Now I'm buzzing it all over the place no problem. Cause I know it will come back. The set path feature is very cool and the others as well. The camera is unbelievably clear and stable. I took mine up about 4 times to 400 feet and flew about 1/2 -3/4 mile every time plus some messing around on 1 battery charge. I did crash it once. That was all on me. I flew it up the the soffet on the house inspecting a yellow jackets nest. Which was cool seeing the bees attack it. But I hit forward instead of backward and hit the house. Didn't phase it one bit... I know there's much better ones on the market. But for the price I don't think there is. But this one you'll love it. Esp if you were like me and afraid of ruining it before you even knew how to fly it.. buy it. Update.... So I had a problem occur. It was towards evening and I flew the drone. And it became erratic and went somewhere. Lost connection and crashed. Because it disconnected. I was unable to locate it. I was upset to say the least. It went a few days thinking. I said I'm gonna email the company and ask if there's any way to retrieve it? I knew better but at least I tried to ask. They immediately got back to me very fast. Asked me if I could send the flight log. I had no idea what or how. But they easily explained to me and I did so. It was a Friday I sent it to them. Monday morning they emailed me back telling me a new drone and battery are on their way. Something created a glitch nobody is sure of. My fault. Their fault who knows. Either way I had a brand new one at my door within a few days. What more could you ask for? I mean I already assumed it was something I did. And was just checking it we could somehow find it. And now because of a great company I have a brand new drone. And been flying it over and over. Had it out almost a mile the other day with no issues. It will go much further using set point flying. And so far. Every time I hit return home. It lands within 2 feet of where it took off. Very pleased
