The drone is excellent. It is easy to control and link to your phone to view the camera. The auto height control is great for my Children (8 and 6) as they can concentrate just on flying it in the right direction. Great drone for the money. When it arrived there was only one battery in the box but the potensic customer service team were great. We had the spare battery delivered within a few days so we can now fly the drone whilst the spare battery charges.  Read Less

 I don't recall ever being quite so stressed when trying something new before. Arriving in a colourful box, this drone requires minimal assembly, just add the blade protectors and feet, charge up the batteries and install, put 4 AAs (not included) into the transmitter and you're ready to go. The batteries are tiny, and two are provided. A USB charger is included into which the battery lead plugs. It only take a few minutes to charge, and each charged battery gives a few minutes of flight time, about 10 minutes or so would be my guess.It's a really good idea to read the manual before starting, especially if, like me, you have zero experience of drones. The controller includes a button which has an up-arrow logo, so I guessed this was the launch button. I decided to test this indoors initially. Bad idea. I switched on the transmitter and drone, nothing happened. A brief glance at the manual revealed that moving the joysticks to the bottom and together was required. I did this and it burst into life, blades spinning though it stayed on the ground. First launch, press the button and up she goes. Long story short, you need to know how to land it, as in a small space these aren't easy to control. Three more failed attempts and a few pieces of bashed furniture later, I called it a day. However, on the plus side I did discover just how robust this drone is!My second effort was more successful. In the garden, I set the trim according to the instructions, and after a few attempts (on a windy day, it has to be said) started to get to grips with the controls. The left joystick manages height, the right direction. What you have to bear in mind is that direction is relative to the green blades, which indicate the front of the drone. So pulling the right joystick down, will move the drone in the opposite direction to where the green blades are pointing. As a previous racer of radio controlled cars, I thought I'd pick this up immediately, but it took a few minutes to get used to it. The drone being blown around in the wind didn't help as despite starting with the front pointing away, it was soon rotated in the breeze.After a few more trial runs, I was further impressed at its robustness, and also it's ability to trim shrubs and flowers with its blades. Several heavy landings and it was no worse for wear. Pulling back and holding on the height joystick cuts out the drive, avoiding risk of burning out the motors.I'm really looking forward to giving this a go in a large open space, and getting to grips with the video camera too. I think a dozen more training flights might be needed before I'm confident enough to risk using this to take video of sporting activities outdoors, which is my ultimate aim. But for now, I'm content that I've bought a very decent entry level drone that will get me up to speed, without risking a small fortune on something really expensive that my lack of skill could easily destroy or lose.I have included a short video of me flying this around a small and busy garden...Anyone looking for something to get into the, um sport (?) should give this a look.  Read Less
