Showed up within a day. Unboxing and assembly was very easy. First charge of the battery has taken about 4 or 5 hours. Note the controller requires 4 AA batteries (not included). Calibration instructions are easy. First flight went well. Handled slight breeze really well. The return home function works really nicely. Camera has a micro SD chip slot, comes w/ 8GB card. Picture quality is good. I tried the app it works well, the follow-me function is great. Blades are rugged, but it does come with 4 spare blades if you crash it. Definitely for outdoor use only (as opposed to my HS220 which can fly inside). Camera is good, I may want to get a goPro for it...
No Blade Guards

i didn't like the fact there are no blade guards and that the blades just kind of slide on or snap into place. I was very upset at my first attempt to fly the drone got about 3ft up and the blade came clean off. My drone was slighly damaged, and i was extremely not happy beings its almost a weeks wages for me beings im a part time worker. I am happy with the battery life and camera they are acceptional.
Not Impressed.

Loses wifi connection easily, battery doesn’t last as long as anticipated.
GARBAGE

I expect it to at LEAST fly straight.I'm trying to get used to the controls and it starts flying off into the sunset! Drifting higher and further over the trees . and when I tell it to GO LEFT it just STAYS THERE! I SAID GO LEFT and it's just hovering over a river I was trying to avoid. So I use the autoland :) and it floats back near the takeoff point, gently touches down...then FLIPS OVER AND GRINDS INTO THE ASPHALT. It's spraying rocks and sand at me while the kill button has no effect. Now it's covered in scratches and broke a prop. GARBAGE won't even fly straight.Also, the app wouldn't connect, so there's that.
Poor Engineering

Update: I put the replacement drone together today. There was no quality control once again. The prop guards had the same 4 pieces stopping it from fitting in the the slots. The drones internet was available, but couldn't connect after clicking allow. No internet connection and the camera won't function. I took my old working camera and put it on the replacement. I could get internet on the old camera with the same wire.Positive: It seems to fly well.Negative: The prop guards socket lock was to small and flopped around. Started the drone and the props hit the guards. I have had 5 crashes in 9 days. Twice the props were bent. 2 weeks later I figured out that their were 2 pieces of molded plastic on each side of the connector that are blocking the way. I shaved 16 tiny pieces of plastic that was stopping the guard from snapping in place properly. Manufacturing defect?It should take seconds to put a battery in a charger. I spent 5 minutes the 1st time. The charging systems mini usb connector kept falling out. I had to put a rubber band around it to keep it in the socket.The new batteries I bought did not fit the charger. They have the EXACT same serial number as the battery that came with the drone. I had to modify the charger to accept them. The new batteries don't show a finished charge light after days of charging. NONE OF THE BATTERIES HAVE A MANUFACTURING DATE! That way they can sell bad batteries.The controller's bottom needs to be pointed toward the drone to get a proper signal. If your back is turned to a low flying drone it will not respond.It is also has a 3 inch cable that plugs into the body. The camera hangs down The 1st light branch strike the camera unplugged and the battery came loose.The camera base is mounted with flimsy plastic and rubber. The 1st bad tree strike and 2 of 4 base mounts popped off. The bottom cover came loose and the wires were hanging out of the bottom. I had to put wire in the mounting hole to close up the exposed wired.The WiFi is in the camera which is usually pointed away from you. I can get 200 M distance with the camera away from me. I get an extra 50-100 M extra flying backwards with camera pointed to me.Drone functions do not work for me. Hit the circle me and the drone circles somewhere else. I have to walk to the center. Follow me turns 90 degrees away from me and sits there while I walk away. Home comes to the origin, but never decends.The camera is a GIANT WEAK SPOT. It has the wireless chip in it. Camera gets hit and doesn't work; the drone WILL NOT FLY!
Lost control

it's great now it's mobile on your tablet
Had done everything right for 3 days. Did the same thing not even near my phone and it (with no impute) went twords the pond and droped. A week later we recovered it. Very disappointed
