X900 Drone Optical Flow Positioning RC Quadcopter with 1080P HD Camera, Altitude Hold Headless Mode, Foldable FPV Drones WiFi Live Video 3D Flips 6axis RTF Easy Fly Steady for Learning Matte White

Purchased a Used - Like New X900 drone. After receiving the items, it was obvious the drone had been crashed and returned. One of the propellers did not work. I contacted the seller and they immediately got me a brand new replacement. Easy to work with and very responsive.Great drone. Very durable. Has been flown into trees and no notice damage. Would recommend for beginners.

The media could not be loaded. So easy to fly, right out of the box (after charging). This will be my first review after trying it once. I am so impressed! I can wait to get it outside the really learn how to get the most out of it. But for a newbie drone pilot, It's great.My wife said "What will you use it for?" After 15 minutes of ideas, she said, "OK, enough."Come back soon to read my full review and see my pictures.So, finally nice enough to try outside. Still easy to fly, but two tips.1. On your first flights, don't fly higher than your extension ladder if you have any tree branches within 100 ft. After recovery I stayed below 20 ft.2. Don't rotate it on your first flights. The forward, backward, left right controls operate relative to the craft, so they reverse relative to the earth as you rotate. (That's why I "landed" in the tree.)Next time out, I will add the camera into my adventure.If you have any curiosity about drones, buy this. Performance for price ratio is insane! FUN TOY. but it doesn't feel like a toy. Good quality.

I had a smaller drone that would not hold well in the wind, this one has more weight and power, which is good, though I would still recommend little to no wind for best performance.Easy to use remote, I chose to use the iOS apps which leads me to a special note: Do NOT use the app anywhere near a “known Wi-Fi network”! You connect the drone to the app by Wi-Fi, not Bluetooth. This gives you longer range (maybe 300 feet / 1000 meters), but if you lose the connection for any reason, your phone will likely grab your “known network” and not reconnect to the drone. Imagine my surprise as I lost connection and was pushing commands with no response!? It was a simple issue that I didn’t anticipate, and the drone just hovered in the wind waiting for a command that never came (eventually snagged in a tree). My recommendation is to use this outside the area of a “remembered” wifi connection, or to “forget” that connection while controlling the drone.While flying the X900, the camera image appeared on my phone screen (controls are superimposed on top of the image), but unfortunately I did not record anything because again, I lost the connection before finding the record button! Sorry.All this said, after the tree snag, the drone eventually came down and seems to have survived quite well. A 100 foot fall broke one of the foldable legs, and popped the battery out of its compartment, but the body, arms and blades seem undamaged. Finally there’s the battery life. Flight time is only 15+ minutes, which is average for a beginner drone. But the fact that it has a “return” and “follow” mode means it should not just drop out of the sky when drained… though I can’t say for sure about that, but I was able to see it still had power when stuck in the branches… the lights winking at me as I waited for the wind to pick up and bring it back down to earth.

I've thought about buying drones before - but due to the price points of HD camera drones in this size, I've historically held off. I grabbed this one figuring it would be a great starter, and so far I think that was the right call! It's been easy to learn how to use it and to start getting comfortable with the controls. The included instructions leave a little to be desired, but if you're comfortable taking a few minutes experimenting, you'll get it all figured out. The companion app was easy to set up. Read the app reviews for some good tips on doing so.The drone also has a cool FPV mode. Make sure you have someone acting as a visual observer if you're doing this. I happened to have an old Google Cardboard phone holder, and the app easily went into that mode and it was fun flying in first-person view.After putting the battery (which is removable and replaceable) aside to charge, I deconstructed the foam in the product box and the drone, the included 8 extra blades and screwdriver, controller, and the aforementioned VR headset I already had all fit neatly in a shoebox with the foam for padding.I look forward to more trips to the nearby park to fly some more. If you're interested in a fun, novel learning experience to get started with drones, I recommend this one.

Drone has control issues doesn't react as it should has issues with moving up and down .

I’ve had the SIMREX x90 and was super happy to try this one - worked for 2.5 min and then dead - the gears stripped while in the air and it fell from the sky into almost 4 pieces - what a waste
