5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing value and quality!
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2024
Me and my 3 yo have crashed this thing close to 100 times and it just keep working.

Here’s why it’s awesome:

- it’s easy to fly
- get tons of flight time with the three batteries
- it has 3 speed settings and is crazy fast
- the acrobatics are very cool
- it allows me to get some practice in around the house to sharpen my skills when flying my expensive drone.
- great instructions. The user experience was well thought out. Hats off to these guys.

Things to look out for:

- hair will get caught in the propellers. You’ll want to check for this often and have a good pair of tweezers to clean them out. As with a regular drone, you should do checks prior to flying and after any crashes.

- read the instructions and controls. Lots of good info, so don’t ignore it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little drone!

For the price, this exceeded my expectations. I've been flying it for almost 2 months. It's been great to learn how to fly with. It's definitely not meant for outdoors. Impressive stability indoors though. It has 3 speeds, which is nice as you become more comfortable flying. The 2nd and 3rd speeds are surprisingly fast. Having 3 batteries provides decent fly time. I think I get about 4-5 minutes of flight before the low battery indicator (blinking lights) comes on. They charge decently fast and can charge 2 at a time. I've crashed it multiple times inside, but it has yet to show any damage. There are some good YouTube reviews on this drone that talked me into buying it as a beginner drone.

I would definitely buy again or even buy it as a gift for someone else.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good drone
Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2024
I have to have this drone for class and it’s pretty cheap and useful. It’s flys good for a first time flyer. It has easy and basic controls. Very easy to learn the controls. It can break easy but as long as you’re careful it won’t break so don’t crash it. Pretty good drone would recommend at this cheap price!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and easy, but maybe not for cats (and definitely not outdoors)
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2022
I wanted to see if my cats and foster kittens might be interested in a flying toy. I wanted something relatively cheap so if it got pounced on I wouldn't upset at the cost. The first one I got was obviously used and broken, Amazon replaced it, and the second was in perfect shape.

The good news is there's little risk of it getting pounced on. The cats are interested in this, but only at a distance. When it flies close to them they scramble where I was expecting them to get a case of the wiggle butts.

I can see where some people damage these on the first flight. Having experience with RC airplanes and big drones I skipped reading the owners' manual (big mistake). I hit the takeoff button and it zipped up rather quickly, hit a cabinet and then went crazy fighting artificially induced pitch sticking itself to the cabinet door. If you're not ready for it the way it zips up will absolutely startle and hit something if you're not in a clear space.

I also accidentally discovered the relative direction mode (in this mode which way the stick makes it go is relative to you, so that if you rotate with the left stick until the drone is facing the opposite way, pushing the right stick to the right will still make the drone go to your right right instead of left). This was a little confusing for me having prior RC experience. Again, reading the manual would have been smart on my part.

Lastly is a tip about the reviews talking about it just drifting away outdoors. The controller has an IR panel on the front (facing away from the pilot). For those that don't know, IR is light based. I'm pretty sure this is how the drone knows which way it is facing for relative direction mode, but it's quite likely it's used for other purposes, including actual flight control instead of RF. This means that when it's in direct sunlight, the IR receiver on the drone itself will get "jammed" by the sunlight and will be unable to receive input from the controller.

This is definitely an indoor only drone, but at a minimum if you're going to do it outdoors, do it at night and keep it really close to you. Without walls for the IR light to reflect off of, the range will be much lower outdoors, so you risk it flying away at night too.

It wouldn't be a fair review if I didn't also list one big con. It comes with blue & black fans, which would be great, however the fans aren't actually color coded. The fans spin in different directions depending on their location on the drone. Normally I would expect them to be color coded along the lines of "black = clockwise blue = counterclockwise", however this isn't the case. If you break a blade, you will need to carefully look at the fan blades to ensure the broken ones you are replacing match the new ones. Putting a clockwise in a counterclockwise or vice versa the drone will not be flyable and possibly fly around erratically hitting people or objects in the room (causing further damage). OTOH if you're feeling like mixing it up you could swap a blue for a black or such for visual effect.

Overall it's a good little drone. Read the instructions, know how to handle it before you're first flight, don't run into things and I would imagine this will last quite a while

UPDATE: Been flying it around my house for a few weeks now. People who complain about it breaking are misusing it IMO. I've had a couple of small crashes. It seems fairly durable, no damage from falls from five feet up onto carpet, or accidentally tapping it into a wall. To break it, you would need to go full speed into a wall, which would probably break it. Kids being rough treating it like an RC car will break it. Drones aren't RC cars and are more fragile.

5.0 out of 5 stars So much fun!
Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2024
I had never alone a drone before and I saw a video that recommended this model as a great starting point to learn the controls the basics of drone flight. This little thing is so much fun to fly around, it is quick and responsive and so easy to fly. I have crashed it many times, at no fault of the drone, and never had an issue or concern with it. It is so much fun that I promptly bought another one the next day so that my 20 year old son and I can fly together and terrorize the dog and mom. We fly around the house and dog fight in the air and race with each other. The control is so intuitive and easy, it is very responsive and fast, the fact that it comes with three batteries is amazing. You can fly as long as you want, by charging two batteries at a time and swapping the battery in the drone is out a new battery there is always a new battery charged and ready to go. It is great for flying indoors with little to no concern about hurting anything or anyone. We have flown them outside as well but the fact that they are so small make them difficult to see once they get more than 60 or so feet away. That being said I just purchased a Holy Stone HS360s for flying outside and that drone is very fun and easy to fly as well. I couldn't recommend this little HS210 more, for anyone who is looking to get into the drone hobby.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly stable, great price.

If you want learn to fly bigger drones.. DJI etc.. and you’ve never flown a drone before, buy this drone. 3 speeds, incredibly stable, super fun. I’ve crashed it multiple times and it’s still kicking. I can get about 8 min per battery. Great for kids, I’ve seen 5 year old fly it. Indoors only, the wind outside would sweep it away.
