Holy Stone has Delivered Again

I just received my HS 165 and right out the gate I am impressed. It is compact (the blades fold up) and relatively light. I purchased the drone with an additional battery and carrying case which is nice. The extra battery allows for additional time to fly as you can only fly for approximately 15 minutes. Charge time for the batteries is roughly an hour. Additionally the transmitter comes with an internal battery that you charge. I find this nice that you are not having to purchase additional batteries for it. Now for the fun part, the flying. You will have a blast with this little drone once it is up in the air. However, you do have to go through a few steps first that allows for GPS and other calibrations. Although a bit time consuming you will appreciate the fact that this drone relies on GPS satellites for navigation. This becomes apparent when you need it to return to you. I have in the past lost a drone that relied on line of sight and a stiff wind took it away never to be found. This little drone will fight the wind to get back to you by pushing the home return button. The drone has brushed motors which is not a downfall and once in the air it is easy to navigate and oh so quiet. The camera is fixed but that did not bother me and the video it takes is quite clear and not pixelated. In all for a starter drone the Holy Stone HS 165 is well worth the money compared to other drones on the market.

Fun little drone

Great little drone it is small lightweight and portable. The gps on this drone is very good and even has waypoints, point of interest, and follow me. The FPV is very quick and clear. I also love that you can fly it with the phone or the controller. The battery time is pretty good too and it comes with two. There is also a VR mode which will split the screen so you can put the phone in any phone VR goggle holder.

I would highly recommend the HS 165 GPS to anyone.

Holystone HS 165 is the first GPS quad I have purchased that has been on point with everything they claims to be. And for the price I am still astonished at how good this little guy does two of my other friends have already ordered some I’ve only had it three weeks It’s so fun to fly just need another battery and it will go toe to toe with the wind just like the reviews say they do.

Great drone easy to learn beginner friendly. Great support team. This company really stands behind their products. If you have any issues with they will help you through it. This company obviously knows what customer service means.

Update so I got the drone and I lost control of the drone and I was well with in range.i hit the e stop and the drone came crashing to the ground and then a car ran over it in the parking lot. Holy stone replaced it. Hence the good customer service review. I got the replacement and have been flying it off and on for a few weeks. Today I was in a nice open area and it just flew away on it's own . So I think it's great if you keep it with in 100ft after that it's a roll of the dice.

WOW!Great Drone!

I received this as a gift from my wife. I am new to drones but as long as you follow the detailed instructions you should be flying in only a few minutes. I am hooked! I fly as as often as possible. No issues. One touch landing is my most important feature but the 2K camera is clear and detailed. Customer service was able to walk me through set up for first flight.
This is a buy for newbies!

Easy to operate, tad sensitive on controls. This is my first drone after doing some research. Reasonably priced also.
