DEERC Drone for Kids with Camera 1080P HD FPV, D40 Foldable Mini Quadcopter for Beginners with Throw to Go, Altitude Hold, Voice Control, Trajectory Flight, Gesture Selfie, 3D Flips, 2 Batteries

Good item

Good for beginners, excellent value and quite robust. A little bit erratic and difficult to trim, not great outdoors as very susceptible to wind. If you want a cheap drone to learn on rather than crashing an expensive one this is great.

Great little drone, especially for beginners. My eight-year-old son loves it and took to flying it very easily. It is also very sturdy despite its small size. The battery life is what it says on the tin and I suppose it's the most they could pack into it, but one always wants more. I reckon you get about ten minutes worth of fun out of it before having to change the battery. The good news is that changing the battery is extremely easy to do. By accident the propeller guards weren't included in the original package, but the customer service was excellent. They replied to me on Christmas Day, which I did not expect, and immediately sent them out via post. Very impressed with the service.

DEERC (HolyStone) drones so reliable. Works every time and the app never failed. If there would be brushless motors and bigger batteries it would be perfect beginners FPV drone. Because it is very light I recommend flying it outside on a very calm day, I mean no wind at all.

Really nice compact little drone, great for first timers like my son and myself only thing that lets it down is the battery life m, 90 minutes to charge for about 7 minutes flying time

I bought this drone for my son for Christmas 2023. He has flown drones before, and I have one of my own so it wasn't going to be our first rodeo.This drone seemed like it fit the bill well for what he needed, without being too expensive or difficult to use. Unfortunately this turned out to not be the case.The drone firstly would not connect to the app no matter what we tried. We used multiple phones and still it would not connect. No matter, we decided we would fly the drone by eye. However, the drone is very difficult to fly.To connect and start the drone you make a sequence of directional movements with the joysticks. This is very clunky and takes multiple attempts to achieve.It will not hover in one place. It will drift to one side and this must be corrected at all times, regardless of the wind or if this was indoors or outdoors. It will move violently in one direction, and in directions that are not input by the user.Worst of all, once the battery gets low it will stop to listen to operator input and start to move away from the operator and continue to increase speed! The only way we could save it from being lost was to turn off the controller and get it to fall to the ground, hoping it didn't break!Don't waste your money, instead buy another drone that you will enjoy.

It flies.. but thats about it. The app doesn't connect to my samsung and therefore the camera or phone controls dont work.Had a little play with it for a couple of days and it does work well, couldnt test it out fully for things like range and flips etc.. but after nearly killing the cat, i got bored with not having the camera.

Really liked the look and 1080 cam appealed over having a storage bag for the same money. The Deerc D40 seems to be overlooked for the D20 but im glad i went for the unpopular choice ,as a first quadcopter/drone you cant want for more ,havnt flown outside as i have a lot to learn and have no need to get an operator i.d yet. Picture quality is sharp on the phone , very little lag indoors for fpv .
