This drone is a lot of fun and very beginner friendly

This drone is a lot of fun and very beginner friendly. I've crashed it badly many times and it still flies like new. The headless mode works great and is definitely useful as it keeps the drone pointed in the desired direction no matter which direction the front of the drone is facing. The video quality is very good, especially for such a cheap drone. I've seen the same drone sell for $90 at Revain just because one company put their branding on it, so it's a great deal at around $50. As others have said, this drone is not great in windy conditions. Actually I had the same drone before and I lost it on day 2 of the flight because I was flying it too high when it was a little windy and I had to watch it fly away never to be seen again. I thought the return home feature would save me if I lost control of it, but it didn't work. I still can't figure out how to get this feature to work on this drone, so I'm trying to fly it no more than 20 or 30 feet in the air in windy conditions. It's a larger drone, but I've had no trouble flying indoors when it's too windy to fly outside. I recommend purchasing the following items for this drone as you will need more than just 2 batteries as you will have to wait an hour for them to charge. Combination: 5 pcs 3.7V 600mAh 25C LiPO Battery for UDI U818A/818A-1 2.4G 4CH RC Quad Copter Holy Stone 5 in 1 max fast charger with 2.5A input current for X5C, 818a, X1, X4, HS170, X300, X400 , F181, F180 quadcopters
