There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The hardest step by far is updating the firmware on everything and for people without a technical background, it might be a bit intimidating. But you REALLY need to update that firmware to fix earlier topple problems that they fixed with a software patch. You basically plug the headset into your phone, install the app, and follow the steps. However it didn't always "take" because it felt like I had to patch it 3 times in a row before it stopped complaining. Once you are past that, everything gets MUCH easier. So go find yourself an 8 year old that can do the firmware updates for you and give them a cookie.
The other thing to know is that you need to double-tap then HOLD power buttons to turn things on and off - that was SOOOO confusing, and I could never figure out how to turn on/off the battery.
The headset is very comfortable and super super easy to loosen/tighten - probably the easiest I've ever used. The picture is clear and smooth. The only downside I've found is that the eye width adjustment does not go far enough - not everyone has an elf-sized head and it needs to go wider.
The controller fits in your hand nice and olds a good charge. I do wish that it had some kind of external antenna so that it had better range - I'm CONSTANTLY getting warnings about it - but it doesn't seem to affect flight.
We've had this thing 2000 feet in the air with no issues, although it does seem to be a bit affected by wind shear more than others it's size.
Battery life is ok - 15 minutes maybe? But of course its like a car - it depends on how you drive it.
My biggest complaint - and it might be just learning more on my part - but once the battery hits 10%, it just stops and hovers. It will ignore your commands, which is REALLY frustrating when you are racing to get back to home and you are 20 feet off the shore over water and it just STOPS. Then I have to get the boys wet wading out into water to grab it. Let the operator OVERRIDE it if they want - the operator knows best most of the time. Now once again, there might be a way and I just haven't found it yet.
Overall, this thing has been a BLAST and (don't tell me wife) I just ordered a 2nd one.
Another comment before I save this, the batteries are WAY TOO FREAKING EXPENSIVE - c'mon DJI, quit being greedy. We own 4 batteries now and I'm broke. Oh, and make it easier to remove the batteries from the drone while you are at it.
Highly Recommended Drone!
I have to say this little drone has exceeded my expectations, and has rejuvenated my love for drone video.
It's a little intimidating to fly at first, but once you get the hang of it it really is very easy to operate.
It's also very durable as I've crashed it a few times already running into trees and so far it seems to be holding up pretty well.

If you're in nature, without a network connection, you're hosed. No fly. None. No drone flight. Period. If you can't wire your phone to the goggles AND get a network connection to your phone (you know, like everywhere worth photographing) then you're not allowed to take off.
This is NOT acceptable. I'll be returning mine, which is too bad, because it's a nice unit that flies well.
Is pretty steep if you ask me. One other problem I have is it's hard to remember to remove the camera cover on this drone. The cover is the same color as the surrounding drone and it's tough to remember when you're in a hurry to get to flying. Find you a piece of bright neon tape or something to put on it so you remember to remove before flight. If you're interested in fpv then this is a great starter drone and you can always reuse the goggles. You can now use the goggles and the motion controller 2 with the DJ mini 3 pro and 4 pro from what I understand. It looks pretty cool on YouTube. I'm happy with my purchase so far. I would buy something to help guard the gimble and camera. The new master air screw three bladed props are very nice. To me they are quieter or at least make a more pleasant sound LOL
They do give you about five to eight miles per hour faster in forward flight. That's all for now but I will update if anything changes.

I do not mind that the battery last for 15 minutes.
Money well invested.
