This drone is a lot more stable than all the rest of the beginner drones I owned. I use beginner drones for practice only especially when I haven’t had the time to fly my 450-size drone. Now, the drone is not all that stable to the point where you can use the features freely without crashing. The only way to use the trimming feature you have to use the app via smartphone. Without the app, you have to keep guiding it. That doesn’t bother me at all though, because as I said earlier, I use these drones for practice.
But what does bother me is the placement of the mark lights. When using the head mode, the red lights identify as the front of the drone. Meaning when you go forward, it will go in the direction of the Red Lights. Normally it’s the green lights that indicate the front of the drone and the forward direction.
Although you have more flight time without the propeller guards and the camera, they are important because they can save you money from buying replacement parts. I had an issue with the camera not recording video. It just took a still shot when I pressed the record button. That’s all I can think of right now.
UPDATE: (02/19/2023) Yeah the camera pretty much doesn't work. I would advise a beginner drone pilot to start out flying fast. This drone offers a calibration feature to stabilize the flight but it's not 100% stable. This drone is best for beginner flight, hovering. Take your time because this drone with improve your drone skills as a pilot.

I charged the battery and then turned it on to see what was wrong with it and quickly realized that two of the blades weren't spinning with the others, so I took a closer look, removed one small screw and instantly saw that the gear from the motor was no longer aligned with the gear for the blade (picture 3) easily fixed by pressing down on the blade until the gears realigned. After doing this to both of the "broken" blades the quad took off effortlessly. Back in business! I think it's also important to say this is the first drone I have ever flown!
I have wanted one for some time so I was very happy to find one that someone was throwing out. This quad is very easy to fly (after a few minutes of getting used to it) and to my surprise I could control it outside during snow and medium winds.
The camera was better than expected and there is no delay whatsoever on the wifi transmission to my phone which is super important for flying when you can't see the drone. (Sometimes it takes a while for my phone to connect to the wifi of the camera though)
It takes about two minutes and 16 small screws to take this drone apart and expose the circuit board and wires. I removed the two red LEDs and two green ones (picture 1) and replaced them with one single white spotlight in the front (picture 2) I did this by cutting the wires of the existing lights and attaching those to the white led, then I drilled an led sized hole in the frame and inserted the new light. Done! It was fun and easy to tinker with this and I plan to do more.
Finally, I have crashed this quad into the snow, down several flights of stairs, into my car, my cat, trees, mailboxes, you name it I've crashed into it several times and haven't even had to replace a blade yet. I am now ordering bigger batteries for this quad and going to get extra blades and motors for it because they are so cheap and I never want to be done flying this quad!
Take it from someone who pulled this quad out of the trash. I did not spend a dime and therefore have no reason to lie or bend the truth. This copter is fun and for the price it is outstanding

... quad 5 stars because of the durability and how easy it is to work on/replace parts
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2016
I gave this quad 5 stars because of the durability and how easy it is to work on/replace parts. Parts are also extremely cheap. That being said let me explain that I didn't purchase this drone from Amazon, I actually saw it as someone was throwing it away in the apartment complex that I work at. He said that the "motors burned out" I see a lot of complaints about "burned out motors" and it makes me laugh because 1: the motors were not burned out, and 2: replacement motors are as cheap as $1.39 right here on Amazon.Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2016
