Great drone and great seller
Firstly I would like to give a very positive review of my experience with the seller Geekara, who went above and beyond after we had a strange situation of a factory error on the assembly of the controller. They responded to messages very swiftly, provided a resolution straight away and were very polite and understanding throughout.Now to the drone itself. It is robust, easy to handle and flies really well. It’s light so be careful in windy weather, and be sure to have both batteries charged as you will get 15-20 minutes out of each (which I consider rather decent for a drone). We have accidentally hit a tree and a metal gate with it (due to the wind taking control!) and it’s carried on without issue.It’s meant for 14+ years of age but we bought it for our son who is almost 9 and with our supervision using it he mastered controlling it within a few minutes and absolutely loves it.Highly recommend both the drone and the seller.

Steady bit of kit on which to learn to fly
My 10yr old got the hang of this very quickly. The drone flies incredibly well and his video gaming skills were soon adapted to flying the drone around the house, up and down the stairs etc... The flip button works brilliantly, with the drone doing a neat flip and immediately righting itself. We've used it in the garden and it handles well even with a steady breeze. Not but not been out to park to check range yet. The batteries get used up very quickly, which is I suppose to be expected and is a general feature of drones per se. You get two in the box, so you at least get two batteries worth of flying per session. The camera and app add more functionality and I think you can actually control the drone just using a mobile phone, but not tried that yet. Overall, would strongly recommend as sturdy entry level drone.

Tricky but fun
This product was very easy to setup and get flying. The power of the rotors is quite surprising considering the size of the motors.Initial test flight did lead to the drone disappearing over to my neighbours, but the emergency stop button did bring it to a safe and controlled landing on their patio.The drone struggles to hold a steady hover and does drift about, which I'd imagine you'd be able to cancel out with practice. I would take it to a large open space and practice with no one about to get the feel of it, making sure you follow the Drone Flying guide from the CAA.The app controls seems a bit hit and miss, and I'll be solely using the controller to fly it, with the app being used for photo and film opportunities, using the buttons on the controller.This drone is a good entry level device and I'd highly recommend getting to grips with flying this one before venturing on to the £150+ market.The only improvement that I could recommend is that the propeller protectors are made of a better grade of plastic.

waste of money, terrible drone
terrible dronethe drone is slow and does not move well even in fast mode, it's randomly crashes into things, if you press the button next to the take off button it was go in a random direction and break stuff, the controls are terrible too, when you out the throttle button down it doesn't stop the blades from spinning, which is entirely unhelpful if it is smashing intok a wall and the emergency stop button takes 3 seconds to stop it from spinning, the emergency collision stop features doesn't exist either, neither does the "1080p" camera that looks like someone just took a massive poo in my screen because of the terrible quality. The flip mode is pretty cool and battery is decent, the LEDS and useful for night time but that's about the best thing I can say about it, a slight gust of wind will send it into a wall and the rotors and guards will break easily, and there is no way you can prevent it because the contrlls are so bad you can even guide it away or shut down the motor fast because you have to hold down a stukif button for 3 seconds and by that time it has already crashed. There is no "waypoint flying", doesn't hold its altitude, because if you leave it to hover it will drift into your TV or a tree, and the rotor guards are too small to protect it againts any thing. also headless fly mode sends the drone into a spiral and crash. InOverall, waste of money, shouldn't be £80, for £80 they should at least include attachable landing gear.

Good entry level drone.
Ordered on Thursday came on Friday morning by 10 am fantastic. Well packaged no damages on outside packaged at all fantastic.The drone box is of really good quality, the drone is well protected in the box, as it as it's own Carrie case and is in foam protection with in the case. There is a zip net pocket in the lid to hold all the spares, the control sits nicely next to the drone in it's own slot,All in all fantastic will have some good times with this and then at some point when I am more experienced I can upgrade to a betterdrone, this is a good entry level drone.

Not what i expected
This little drone is quite good fun after getting to know it. The first time of using it was quite eventful as it just flew off, the emergency stop on both controller and phone didn't seem to work (along with every other control) and it just appeared to be flying away never to be seen again. After a hour of searching we find the drone thanks to its wifi name being broadcast and i was very surprised to find it again. The second time of taking the drone out we decided to attach a long cord to it to prevent it from flying away, this time it was good fun. The flight time was around 30mins and the cord attached to the drone didn't seem to hamper its performance. The camera feed from the drone isnt great and quite laggy but for the price i couldn't complain, i would say it is a great starter drone and for anyone wanting to just have some fun with a drone. I wouldn't say this would suit anyone with an expectation of wanting professional quality pictures or wanting fancy gadgets on a drone. The drone does appear to be able to cope with a little breeze but can become hard to control if it gets a sudden gust. Overall i would say its a good drone when its not trying to fly away on its own accord and is great for anyone starting out.
