    The product is absolutely worthless, don't buy it.

    In general, I didn’t even try to launch this miracle, but immediately wrote for a refund, because I counted on a complete set. and now 16 days have passed since June 26, and aliexpress has not made a single movement to return the goods. I call there every other day and every other day they raise the priority to the maximum, they promise a call from a terrible manager, they apologize for the suffering, but they do nothing. I used to read complaints about taking it and was perplexed - it was…

    Pros
    • Beautiful, on sale a lot of components, in case of breakage, you can replace anything
    Cons
    • 1. abrasions on the blades and on the top cover - the device was used by someone - it is necessary to warn 2. The battery goes in and out with such force that not every adult is able to replace it. Although replacement is easy in numerous reviews, there are many complaints about tight installation and extraction in Ali reviews. Given that the tone of the battery cover is slightly different from the tone of the case, you start to think that it is not native. 3. The tone of the camera paint is also different, which makes you think that they assembled a Frankenstein 4. Well, and most importantly, the declared equipment does not correspond to the one supplied: there is no memory card and card reader. While on all reviews and unpackings on YouTube they are. There is also no slot for a flash drive on the camera - there is just a plug in the color of the case, which once again brings to mind .

    One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

    Carefully read the description, the complete set of the product you want to buy. I expected to see a memory card for the camera in the kit, or at least a slot for it in the camera, but there wasn’t one or the other. But this was not in the description of the configuration, but on the YouTube video it was. Probably depends on where you bought it.

    Pros
    • Convenient remote control with phone mount. Online broadcast of the flight, however, affects the control of the device, since it takes away battery power. All other declared characteristics of the goods correspond to the full.
    Cons
    • It is very good to have at least one extra battery in stock if you want to fly longer. In this case, it is necessary to land the quadcopter and replace the battery.

    I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

    The camera, of course, is completely stupid. But this must be taken into account when buying. But there are first-person video experiences. Some pros: Sufficient functionality for your money. Suitable for beginners and children. Build quality is good, ease of use. Cons below: The battery is weak. You need to buy one or two in order to fly at least a little for 15-20 minutes.

    As the first quadcopter for a child, it will do (also with a camera!). A couple of days are enough to master basic flights. In theory, it should hang in one place, but in the room it creates air currents that will pull it to the side - it is solved by fine tuning (in principle, it was possible to adjust it so that it practically hung in one place and you can fly along the corridor). Sensors keep the quadric at a given height - it's convenient, you don't need to constantly steer with two…

    Pros
    • For its price, it is quite easy to manage even a child of 8 years. The presence of a gyroscope, height sensor (really keeps the height). There is a live camera. The battery is made in the form of a module - it is convenient to remove / install (you can buy it). The indicator of the degree of charge in the application, the indicator of the completion of the charge. When the battery is low, it goes down by itself. There is a one button auto landing. Remote control phone mount. Protected propellers - stop when they encounter obstacles. Complete set: got it in flight (screwdriver, SD card, charging and the device itself).
    Cons
    • Flight time 7-8 minutes and long charging (~2 hours). The camera is mediocre, but on the street during the day the quality is decent enough (again for its price). Blows the wind, especially at altitude. The instructions were only in English.

    A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

    Some pros: It flies perfectly, a child of 8 years old quickly figured out the controls, shoots videos - he works out his cost for 5+) Cons below: Small battery capacity, enough for 7 minutes of flight - but again - everything is according to the price.

    Think twice before buying - product is disgusting.

    Before buying, I read reviews and even watched videos on youtube. Delighted, I ran to place an order. Having collected and inserted the batteries into the remote control, I was afraid of only one thing - that the quadcopter would fly high and we would not find it, but everything turned out differently. Our quadcopter did not spin one of the blades, which is why it simply did not take off. They bought a child just like that, if they gave it to a holiday, he would be even more upset. Do not buy…

    Pros
    • They are not here
    Cons
    • caught defective, does not take off, plastic

    Revainrating 2 out of 5

    The quality is at zero, very sting of the money spent.

    The first battery flew off with a bang. I put the second one - the quadric itself flew off to the side, stopped "obeying", then abruptly went up and - into the forest. Are they specifically programmed that way? Or do you need to check the trim settings before each flight? Different pros: Quickly figured out the controls. He flew around the apartment, in the yard. Cons below: I went out into the open, near the city stadium, near the forest.

    The purchase did not justify itself at all.

    Pros below: Son 10 years old learned to control while the first battery was discharged Has some cons when the signal is lost, it does not descend, but sharply gains altitude and flies in an arbitrary direction. It's almost impossible to find.

    In general, a great model to learn how to manage and understand what you want to see in the next quad. The children (Veronika, 4 years old and Cyril, 32 years old) really enjoyed it. Some pros: Lots of features for the money. Children are delighted with revolutions. When you connect a mobile phone (a handy holder for the remote control included), you can start shooting from the application, while it is saved immediately to the phone's memory. Spare parts and accessories (additional batteries…

    Good value for money, I recommend it.

    The copter stays in place pretty well if there is no wind. Neither the hull nor the propellers could be broken, although there were many accidents and falls. I immediately bought a couple more batteries, since 7 minutes is not enough, and they take a long time to charge. The camera is nothing. For some reason, I didn’t have a card reader at all, although the description says that there is. Transferring video to a smartphone occurs with blunts and artifacts, and also reduces the control range at

    Pros
    • Appearance. Price. Strong.
    Cons
    • Camera. Communication loss. Wind dependent.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

    Its pros: Good value for money, well assembled, strong plastic, did not shatter after several abnormal landings. Beautiful design. Management is intuitive, even a child can master. Its cons: A short flight time, 7 minutes, I had to order several additional batteries so that I could change it in the process.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

    Different pros: easy to manage. The stated time flies. Online you can buy a replaceable high-capacity battery to increase the flight time. Good build quality and looks. The flight range was checked by 30-40 meters - everything is ok. On the street, it plans to the sides, apparently blown away by the wind. Cons below: The claimed 720P camera shoots only 640x480. The quality of shooting on the first mobile phones with a camera. On wi-fi, the image freezes and, accordingly, is reflected in the rec

    The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

    It's just AAAAA! Bought for my boyfriend for Christmas. But, of course, it was necessary to check the performance and equipment immediately after receiving, and it was just interesting. Therefore, before packaging in gift paper, I opened it, assembled it, and launched it. The first thing you feel is a wild delight, how everything is simply assembled, installed and turned on. The second is when it launches with a little noise and rises into the air, this is AAAAAAA, where are you flying, what…

    Pros
    • Very easy to assemble, easy to operate, ideal for a beginner
    Cons
    • It would be great to have 4 batteries in the kit at once, but they are easy to buy. Video lags a bit

    Revainrating 3 out of 5

    Not particularly happy with it, but it's mostly okay.

    Suitable exclusively for beginners to master basic piloting techniques, FTP functions, control from a smartphone, because. is quite inexpensive. I do not recommend categorically in the presence of any wind to fly to raise the copter high, because. at a height the wind can be completely different and it will fly up very cheerfully, but if it starts to be demolished, then you may not return it back, as it happened with me, in the end the battery is dead and now it hangs somewhere in the forest on

    Pros
    • High-quality rather strong plastic, beautiful model (bright red color for a girl is the most, the remote control is also beautiful, rather girly), it is easy for a child to master control (we started from 8 years old), the presence of coups, the presence of the FTP function itself for initial development, its own software for control and shooting, the availability of spare parts in the store (almost everything can be bought separately), the price
    Cons
    • The low capacity of the battery (I immediately ordered another additional one), it does not maintain the same height well, it flutters it up to half a meter easily, i. E. you need to be more careful above the ground, it may well not be planned to collapse, DISGUSTINGly resists the wind, even in turbo mode, does not stand still when the joysticks are released, it constantly blows to some side, you have to constantly taxi, joystick calibration does not help.

    A cool thing, but let adults do the first launches. I took it to my son - 8 years old, at the first start he drove the quadric on the Christmas tree to a height of 5-6 meters, they were tortured to get it, so ideally, of course, start it in a clean field. Different pros: An interesting toy for dad and son. We've been having fun at the dacha for several evenings. The camera has not been used yet, but it is unlikely that for 3000-3500 there will be a fantastic picture =). So far, only with the…

    Poor quality, not worth the money.

    Apparently the goods have quite a large percentage of marriage. I recommend checking at least the operation of the propellers, which is called "on the spot".

    Pros
    • Convenient modular system, high-quality plastic.
    Cons
    • At the first test turn on, it turned out that one of the four propellers was not spinning.

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

    I use a month, often broke repaired 3 times. And so everything is ok. Its pros: The price was taken at a discount, fast charging, beautiful design of the quadric and batteries, ease of control and connection, Cons: Short flight time, defective Gears making noise during takeoff. Fragility
