The media could not be loaded. This little drone is simply a blast. Up and flying in less than a minute and super easy to learn. With multiple speeds its slow enough to fly around inside your house but fast enough to really whip around. Even my 5 year old was able to get it under control after only a few attempts.The throw to fly is an awesome feature and works really well. Occasionally you might throw it too aggressively and it gets out of control, but that’s ok because..It is very durable and you can crash it as much as you want. All four rotors are encased in protective shields so there’s no worry about breaking or hurting anyone.Headless mode seems to drain the battery faster? But tha tmight be my imagination. The batteries last a good while and there are three of them so they are always ready to fly.Overall this thing is just a super fun for anyone from 5 years old to 105 years old.The cats hate it though.

The media could not be loaded. Comments about the package contents• Three batteries came with the kit. Each battery holds a 7-minute charge for a total of 21 minutes flying time. I would suggest being conservative about your flying time by assuming the batteries would run out a little more quickly.• A 2-strand charging cable came with the kit as well. You can charge two batteries at a time with that cable. For me, I would want to buy one more of those 2-strand charging cables and one more battery so I can charge four batteries at a time.• Batteries for the controller were not included. AAA batteries are required.• The battery compartment is secured by a small screw as well as with a plastic latch. You'll want to be careful in handling the screw because it's easy to lose. Not that I would ever drop it on the carpet.• The controller seems to have similar actions to other Holy Stone drones. For example, the left stick goes up and then back down to pair the controller with the drone. The left and right sticks go down and to the lower left hand corner to calibrate the drone.Observations• The small size of the drone means you don't have to register it with the FAA.• One thing to be aware of is the drone does not have a camera. That's not a bad thing because you can practice your piloting as long as you keep the drone within sight. For me, that was an attractive feature for beginning drone pilots. Lack of a camera is one less thing for them to worry about when starting to learn how to pilot drones. Gaining piloting skills then prepares the drone pilot for the more expensive drones that come with cameras. The piloting skills will contribute to great photos and videos from the drone.• The rotors are enclosed, so it if bumps into something, the rotors won't cause damage/injury nor will they be damaged by collisions.• Because the rotors are enclosed, you can grab it out of mid-air with your bare hand.• I would be cautious about flying this drone outdoors unless the air is very still. The drone's size may make it susceptible to gusts.Attachments• I attached of photo of the drone and controller on letter-size (8.5 x 11 inches) paper to give a sense of the size of the two items.• The video is me launching the drone without the controller. It cuts on automatically when you toss it up. One time, I let it get stuck in our ceiling light. When I knocked it down, it started automatically and started flying again.Overall, I would highly recommend this drone for beginners. I'm not the most advanced drone pilot, so I immediately saw the potential for using this to develop one's skills at home. The ability to do things with it without the controller also have potential for fun activities. Remember when hacky sacks were a thing? I can see how these kinds of drones, flying without controllers, can be part of fun games.I added this statement after posting this review. In the interest of full transparency, Holy Stone kindly provided the drone for testing. My comments don't change. I was indeed pleased with the drone and its performance, especially for the price. It has a lot of potential to get kids interested in tech.

I am a 75 year old male with poor eyesight and shaky hands so, this review is from that perspective. I started flying the drone and it did not have a stable hover in place. I notice one of the propeller shaft was broken and not rotating correctly. Unfortunately, the instruction book does not describe the replacement of a propeller. I emailed HolyStone and received a quick reply with a link to a video on replacing the propeller. I have found that HolyStone has great customer service. I also, have had to remount the propellers several times on the motor shafts. This is not easy if you do not have steady hands using the tiny screws. When propellers are mounted correctly the drone is stable. In sensor mode the preflight setup is very simple. The Throw & Go is easy for takeoff. The Auto-Rotate, Flip & Rolling, and Circle Fly functions were a little harder to do although, sometimes it did do flips on its own. In remote control mode the preflight setup is simple. Not too many options on the controller, so learning is easy. This mode would be great for someone just starting to use drones. Obstacle avoidance is fair. When it approaches an object it does avoid the object but, moves away too quickly to avoid another object. Four propellers, screws, Phillip’s screwdriver, propeller screwdriver, dual USB charging cable and manual are included in the package contents. In conclusion, I like this drone, it has many features for a drone at this price level. I like the ease of attaching the battery without connecting small connectors. I enjoy flying the drone indoors with the remote controller. Great drone for beginners.

What an amazing drone!! It was small but very responsive and surprising.I ordered it and received it quickly in the mail. It was EXACTLY as listed on the website.FANTASTIC.The Drone itself is small but sturdy and it did great on its first at the lake/beach. I took it out and it flew up at least 25 feet and the controls were responsive to the toch. Setting up was super easy - and simple. Easy to use right out of the box - the THREE batteries are simple to charge and last a long time!The controls were super simple to use and easy to navigate in the house and yard - yes - we made the trip in both. It was very easy to learn to operate this as the controls were so simple.I would HIGHLY recommend the drone - GREAT quality for the price, a lot of fun!!!!

It works until it doesn't
