Pros
- GPS drone with automatic return to home and landing on command, loss of signal. On half battery, the drone will fly back to within 30 meters of its takeoff point. You can continue flying on low battery within this thirty meter circle until the battery is depleted, at which point the drone will land wherever it's at.
- 1080p video camera with SD card recording to avoid WiFi video freezing and frame dropping. The 1080p video is recorded to the card at 25 fps. 1080p still photos (video frame grabs) are also recorded to the card.
- Also includes a two axis gyro stabilized gimbal for smooth video.
- 7.6V 2200mah battery provides over 14 minutes of flight time (20 minutes if in hover only).
- WL GPS app provides real time viewing capability of the in flight video. It also enables advanced flight control features of circle position, and waypoints. I do not recommend utilizing the apps follow me feature (see cons below).
Cons
- App requires a phone with 802.11ac WiFi capability. Not all phones are capable of 802.11ac WiFi. Before purchasing it is very important to first verify that your phone has this capability. To find out, just Google search your phone's model name along with the terms "802.11" and "specifications". Then see if 802.11ac shows up in the results.
- Wide angled lens does have some fisheye effect.
- Advertised with a 4K camera. Actually the drone only saves 4K still photos to your phone. These photos are app software enlargements of the original 1080p frame grab still photos recorded to the card.
- The app is a bit buggy. Particularly, its "follow me" flight control feature may possibly result in fly away and loss of the drone. I do not recommend using the "follow me" feature with this drone.
