This is my first drone that’s not a just a toy. This is a really nice drone flies really well even if it’s a little windy the I got a little nervous when I lost sight of my drone but lucky the come home button works perfectly. The built quality seems really good so I will be enjouying this drone for some time.
Great beginner GPS drone

This is a great little drone! For the price, I don’t think it can be beat. It takes just a few minutes to get a grasp on the controls and be comfortable flying it. I’ve been flying this drone in 10-12 mph winds with gusts to 16-17 (according to UAV forecast) and the video was a little shaky but it held strong.
The camera quality is much better than I expected for photos and the videos turned out very well so far. The only thing about this drone that takes getting used to is hours small it is. It can be easy to lose it in the sky if you are focusing on the fpv but then the return to home function is perfect at bringing it back.
I recommend this drone for someone who is interested in getting into a gps drone and doesn’t feel the need to spend a fortune on a mavic.
Excellent choice for a beginner'sfirst drone

When shopping for my first drone, I was looking for something that wasn't too expensive (anticipating losing or crashing it), something that was easy for a beginner to fly, and a model that had most of the features I would look for if I were buying something more high-end (so that I would have a good sense of what you could do with a drone).
I found all those requirements met by the HS510. Holy Stone models appeared on several 'drones for beginners' lists, and reviews of Holy Stone models were generally good or excellent. I did a feature comparison across the Holy Stone line and settled on the HS510 over a couple other models partly due to it's small size.
And I've not been disappointed - it's solidly built and very easy to fly right out of the gate. The pairing and calibration processes are straightforward so the drone is quickly ready to fly, and inclusion of two batteries gives me about 30 min of flying time (15 min each) before having to head home and re-charge.
But most importantly, it is easy for a beginner to fly. I started off slowly, just taking off and landing, then slowly increased the complexity of my flights. I've now had it about a week and have been able to take it out to fly four times now, getting more confident - and trying out more features like 'point of interest' - with each flight. So far so good, and I'm having a great time learning to fly the HS510.
And when the time comes to move up to something more high-end, I'll start by taking a good look at the other Holy Stone models. 
Best bang for buck mini drone out there!

First timer here and I must say I am very impressed! Solid built, easy to fly and a all around quality product. A lot of pinch packed into this little portable package.

While this isn't my 1st drone (I own 3 others) it is my 1st "non-toy grade" one. As there are literally hundreds of drones to choose from these days, I did a LOT of research before purchasing. I watched endless YouTube videos, read through dozens of drone forums and read many drone/tech site + Amazon owner reviews. I chose the HS510 because it seemed to offer a great mix of features, performance and positive owner feedback at a reasonable price.
After receiving it, familiarizing myself with it's operation and flying it numerous times, I'm happy to report it delivers everything I'd hoped for and more.
The amount of tech packed into this drone is impressive given it's price. Every feature I've tried out so far - GPS position hold, return-to-home, optical flow sensor and auto take off/landing - work as advertised.
The camera takes pretty good pictures (see attached) and video when saved to an onboard microSD card - I haven't tried saving pics or video directly to my phone and will likely just skip that.
The fact that the drone is foldable, came with (2) batteries and a nice little carrying case to store & transport everything was just icing on the cake.
I was so impressed with the HS510 that I ended up ordering Holy Stones newest drone (the HS720E) to try doing a little higher-end aerial photography/videography.
(EDIT: My only complaint regarding the HS510 is that it doesnt come in black, which makes it easier (for me at least) to spot when the drone is at a higher altitude. Since this is more of a personal preference than anything I didn't factor it into my rating.) 
Gps works great return to home feature lands within a foot of the take off location.
