First off I did not expect this thing to be so tiny lol but that makes it great to mess around with indoors. Also my hands are very tiny so the drone is maybe 4 inches.
Setup is easy and the instructions were helpful. Flying it is also very easy. It’s very responsive and has great control. The motor is powerful.
The self floating works pretty well too. It moves forward a bit, but that’s just something I have to calibrate on my end.
Overall, a very good purchase for the money. Definitely recommend for a first drone. It flies very very fast lol so watch where you’re aiming. Don’t take out an eye lol
Cannot attest to how long the battery works yet, as my son just opened this for his birthday, but will update my review after he messes with it more.
Only thing I don’t like about it, is the controller takes 4 AAA batteries to work. Wish that it would have been rechargeable as well.

Great little beginner drone

The not great: Charging through the remote never showed that it funny charged. The light always stayed the same even after over an hr and a half. I unplugged it and it flew for a solid 5+min so I'm guessing it charged even though it didn't show that.***UPDATE- It finally charged through the remote, it just took a good two hrs+ I'm sure it's always going to take a while since it's charging off of AAA batteries.
That's all I found not great, not negative, just not great.
The good: Easy to learn-nice features- responsive-just plain fun to fly around the house. It has 3 speeds, the default speed is the slowest and easiest. The fast is pretty quick and you need to pay attention, surprising for it's size but still fun. Auto take off and landing worked perfect and on landing you can still control the direction of the drone. The drone held it's position well after take off once it was trimmed. The spinning feature seems gimmicky but kids would love it. The flips were fast and tight and worked great in all directions. The trim settings work good. I only had one experience where I needed more right trim but it apparently maxed out before I could get it as still as I wanted. It was still easily managed without full trim. I trimmed it at the beginning of every flight and I recommend you do too, it only takes a few seconds. Flying outside isn't something you can or should do unless there is ZERO wind, even airflow in your house will move it around, it's that light.
The controller: I already mentioned the charging issue. I should mention that at no time did the drone feel hot during the charging with the controller or through a usb port. I like that the drone fits in the controller, it makes it easy to carry around and perfect for a kid who could possibly end up sitting on it. Arming the drone and props was simple and worked perfectly. It feels a bit, how do I say it, low budget? Well it is but it still felt solid enough. The controls are easy to use and the buttons were easy to find without taking your eyes off the drone, just familiarize yourself with them before flying for the first time.
All in all it's well worth it's price. I knew it was small before I received it but was surprised just how small it really was. Happy flying!

Beginner friendly; Easy to Use; Durable; very fun;

This drone is very easy to fly and use, even for a beginner. I had my mom, who had never flown anything before, fly this drone. She was able to keep it in the air and did not crash. She did bump the wall, but the included prop guards allow the drone to ride on the wall and not harm the drone or the paint.
Packaging:
This drone is packaged very well. It comes inside the box surrounded by plastic. I actually had a rough time getting this drone out of the packaging. Also, the drone fits very well inside the radio.
Portability:
This drone is very portable, and can be flown nearly anywhere indoors. The only downside to this drone's portability is that while, yes it fits in the radio very well, there is no casing for the radio to go into. If you feel comfortable carrying around the radio, then you can carry the drone. One thing to note is that the drone's foldable arms click and lock multiple times before they reach fully extended. Be careful when you try to extend the drone's arms and make sure that you don't try to push them the wrong way.
Durability:
This drone is very durable. Since I have had this and flown it, (I have probably flown it 10 times) I have had only a few crashes, and the ones that I have had do no damage. There is also rubber stoppers on the bottom of each motor that in the event of the drone being dropped, there is no damage. If you do crash, make sure that you kill the motors as per the manual.
Quality of Materials:
This drone's quality feels that of a $40 maybe even $50 drone. The radio feels like it is worth the price you pay. I would rather have most of the quality in the drone anyways, and that is where all the quality has been placed.
Battery Life:
This drone advertises 5 - 7 minutes of battery life. I find this to be correct.
Charging time:
This drone takes around 40 minutes to charge.
Skill Level of Pilot:
I would let anyone fly this drone, even someone who has never flown anything before, whether it be plane, heli, or quad. This drone is so easy and simple to fly that almost anyone could fly it. One other nice thing is that this drone's controls are very very similar to my larger drone also from Holy Stone.
Indoor Flight:
This drone flies its best indoors. It can do flips indoors as well.
Outdoor Flight:
Only an experienced pilot should fly this drone outside. This drone can be taken by the wind very easily. I would only recommend flying this drone outside on high speed so that you can fight the wind.
Is this quad noisy?
Some members of my family call this drone a bee. It does sound a-lot like a very large bee. This drone is not too loud, but I would not call it quiet.
Box to Air Time:
You can get this drone from the box into the air in under an hour, depending on how long the battery takes to charge (my battery came half full)
Quality of features:
The flip feature on this drone works great. Just make sure that once you press the right joystick down to enter flip mode, that you immediately move that joystick in the direction that you want it to flip. Two beeps sound, and if you make no action in these two beeps, your quad exits flip mode.
The high speed rotation works well. Depending on which speed setting you are on depends on how fast the drone rotates as well as the overall speed of the drone.
The speed switch works well. Top speed it VERY fast and I don't recommend using it at all, especially in a tighter indoor space.
Auto Land:
When this quad is low on battery, it lands its self. When it gets to a certain point, it won't flip anymore. Soon after, it will land. This feature works as it should.
Downsides:
This drone sometimes likes to drift. Using the trimmer reset function helps though. This drone has no camera, although that is not surprising for something this size. The trimmer buttons do not do much in my opinion. If the drone drifts, the drone trimmer reset works the best.
Overall:
If you are looking for a drone to learn on, just fly indoors, something to do on a rainy day, or to impress your friends with cool flips, then this drone is for you.
