FancyWhoop KK2DW RC Quadcopter Drone RTF Mini Quadcopter Drone with Wifi HD Camera Micro Drone Altitude Hold Mode Headless Mode

The media could not be loaded.  Great fun , lots of features - amazing little quadcopter! (please read all below - apologies its a long review!)Got this today to try out, I have a few other micro quadcopters, some just line of sight flying, some I fly FPV.This looked cheap enough to give a go for fun!Delivery was quick, and the packaging on this is superb. Nice sturdy box, foam lined etc. Ensures the model is not crushed or broken like some others I've had!If you dont know what to expect - this is a tiny palm sized "drone" that is safe to fly around the house and people (the props are covered by the ducts and can't damage furniture or people easily!) it bounces off objects - carry on flying without damage or falling to the ground.You get in the box:the quadcopter with battery,handset/controller,bracket (clips to the controller) to hold your phone,spare props,USB charger (battery already in the quad - but can be easily slid out if you have spares),screw driver (to remove battery tray on handset)Instruction bookletsPretty easy to use - install 3x AA battery in the handset, charge the quadcopter battery (can take half hour....),Turn on handset, plug in the quadcopter,To initiate - push throttle (left stick) full up and down, then its armed ready to fly - push throttle up to take off !I found there was two ways to fly, just the quad and handset - fly by eye - without any videos photo etc. I find this great fun and easy to have good control over the quadcopter.Or - hook up via wifi to your phone (iOS or Android) with the kk-game app. Now you can see on your phone, the view from the quadcopter camera. you can take photos or video by tapping the on screen buttons.You can do a full range of things from your phone - even use the phone to control the quadcopter.(I prefer the handset, but the screen controls worked fine too! Looks like you can even control by tilting your phone (not tried that yet!))The quadcopter flies really nice, its pretty stable and not too fast - there's two rate modes, slow limited or a slightly faster option.It can do automated rolls and flips at the press of a button!It flies a little different to most quadcopters I have , in that it has altitude hold - when you let go of the throttle, it maintains its altitude/position pretty well - even has auto land (press the left stick in once to land, again to take off automatically! You can still fly up and down by just increasing or decreasing the throttle as expected (throttle self centres in middle).battery lasts surprisingly long for a tiny pack, about 5 minutes or so of zooming around. Having a second or more battery would be something to consider for extending the fun.Also its pretty tough - I have crashed this numerous times today - zero damage!Just set off and carry on flying!A lot of features on a tiny and inexpensive fun toy.!Downsides:The camera has a very narrow field of view - so feels like your really close to things - makes it a little hard to fly if only looking through the screen when in small spaces. But still fun to film and take snapshots. Would be good outdoors on a (very) still day!I included some photo stills and video clip from a few quick tries today. Please appreciate they are just messing around and not the best examples! Also the light was low but they still worked well considering.

Disappointing drone for the money. The altitude hold did not work when using the controller (just drops back down again immediately when you release the left stick), and the app would not open (crashed every time) on android 8.0. Added to this, every time the drone takes the slightest bump (e.g just touching the wall gently) it goes crazy, out of control, and flips sideways, the motors going into overdrive and not stopping even when it hits the ground. Most drones with guards just bounce off and keep going. This makes it unflyable for my son, who is still learning. Go for a Cheerson or Syma instead.

The instructions are badly translated from Chinese, are very light on information and difficult to understand. After much trial and error we did manage to get it to fly once however, after that it would only fly sideways. It's been returned, if you want a camera drone that hooks up to your mobile device, it's probably worth spending a bit more. This drone looks great, the packaging is great, it has all the potential to be a great micro drone however, it's just a cheap piece of...

went off on the first crash

Bien

Die Drohne ist super wendig und sehr prezise zu fliegen. Doch die App um die Kamera zu öffnen funktioniert nur manchmal
