Pros
- Under $200 GPS drone.
- GPS hold mode is relatively steady.
- Will automatically return on command, on loss of transmitter signal, or if battery level is low. Quadcopter returns and lands at your location (not its takeoff location).
- Includes follow me and circle mode. In circle mode, quadcopter rotates about your location when circle mode was activated.
- Camera records 1080p video or 5MP still photos directly to an onboard microSD card. Camera can also be remotely angled up or down.
- WiFi FPV video received via RC Leading app available on Google Play here or iTunes here
Cons
- WiFi version of this quadcopter has relatively short FPV and control range of under 100 meters. This is likely due to the interference on 2.4Ghz between the WiFi and the quadcopter's controller. As such, if you desire greater range, recommend the slightly more costly 5.8Ghz RC-136FGS version
- Quadcopter's video camera produces quite a bit of vibration jello. Camera also has quite a bit of fisheye effect from its wide angled lens.
- Flight time is relatively short at about 7 1/2 minutes.
- Proprietary battery.
