Qi Zhi QZ S8 720p HD FPV Foldable Camera Drone Flight Test Review

This portable folding quadcopter transmits and records 720p HD FPV video directly to your phone to help ease transfer to social media. Find the 2MP version, available here in Black or in Green (looks Blue to me)
Be careful when shopping as some other vendors are carrying a cheaper, but less capable 0.3MP version of this quadcopter.
Pros
- Foldable to help with transportability, such as via backpack.
- Live FPV aerial video may be viewed in real time on your smartphone or tablet.
- Records "no kidding" 720p HD video and 2MP photos directly to your phone or tablet. No need for a memory card or computer to transfer your videos and photos to social media. This is a significant improvement over other WiFi FPV quadcopters, in that most others are only capable of recording in VGA low resolution to your phone (480p video, 0.3MP photos).
- Uses common, inexpensive, and widely available Syma X5C batteries.
- Capabilities include altitude hold, headless mode, and one key return.
- Uses HTS-UFO app availabloe on Google Play here and on iTunes here
Cons
- Altitude hold works, but can be a bit erratic.
- Some lag and minor frame dropping due to limitations of WiFi data transfer. Additionally video jello is very apparent (can be reduced by propeller balancing).
