Love every minute of it!

personal experience Fast like a car (approx. 40 km/h). Just LEARN how to use manual mode. Fast mode while maintaining altitude results in a sharp jump up. Even after this spike, dropping and recovering is SMALL (slow). So I usually only use GPS and manual mode. GOOD, - 20 minute flight on one battery, just buy 2 other batteries for a full hour of flight (as far as you can SEE, think of the horizon, I'm not good with numbers) - GPS/Altitude/Manual/Headless/Following /Back FPV home screen with telemetry like GPS coordinates (if ever lost) GPS mode makes it hard to lose, focus on having fun) -1080p (.MOV format unfortunately) Had to download VLC player to view them badly to look at because this is a more durable drone, the technology listed above makes it more sensitive. Most of my more serious accidents result in the engine stopping. But there is a repair center in the US where it can be sent in. Just don't lose your drones. If you have it, you can fix it. From time to time he flies on Fritz. I don't know if this is "toilet", I just use manual mode. Also the props when it breaks are annoying but that's my fault not the creators. hard to crash if you AVOID things in GPS mode. I LEARNED A LOT FROM MY PREVIOUS DRONES I CRASHED (they were cheaper). DO NOT USE THIS FOR DRONE EMERGENCY TRAINING. Buy a $20 Microdrone if you want to learn the basics. ALSO FYI, it's pretty durable; I've had several accidents and I still fly. I won't say how much. B.C. You might think I'm a bad pilot.
