Its really good quality and amazing drone.
Not all features worked properly
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This should have been a five star review. I really loved this drone. The longer then average (from my experience) flight time was great. The response with the controllers, ease of use and camera quality exceeded my expectations. But a few weeks ago, I was flying it over the woods in my house and a strong gust of wind brought down my drone. This should not have been an issue except the GPS location locking did not work. I have not been able to recover my drone which had been extremely disappointing.
Great flying time!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed an affordable HD drone that captured sharp image video and this does exactly that! Flying time is close to 30 minutes and doesn’t take a million hours to charge unlike some of the other drones I’ve previously owned. I am so impressed with its image quality! I took it on vacation with me to Mexico and was able to get some beautiful mountain and ocean videos! Showed my family and they they couldn’t believe how professional it looked! Super easy to navigate and user manual is also very thorough to help you get started.
You can't beat it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so glad I kept this for myself! I orginally got it for my husband, and decided to try it out before giving to him. Turns out, I bought him his own and kept one for myself! It is so much fun! It has 32+ minutes of flying time! (Imagine all the things you can see within that time, A LOT). It comes with the drone, built in phone stand, batteries, usb cable, battery charger, carrying case, user manual, and screw driver. It features HD video, range of 2000+ feet, brushless motors, follow me mode, real time transmission, variable speed settings, auto takeoff and landing, 180° rotating camera, gps transmission, app control, auto hover, and one key return (very handy). I cannot stress enough how if your looking for a drone, this is the one for you! It is everything you need and more. Also, it comes with all the technology to make every flight an enjoyable experience.
Best Drone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This drone has seriously impressed me. This comes with a great manual to refer to and help set up.I am pleased with the performance of this drone so far. First off, this is an excellent bundle. All I can say is WOW! This is the coolest drone I’ve ever flown. This is so much fun. It took me a while to learn but I like it. Super-easy to fly! Any beginning drone pilot will be able to fly this right out of the box. This would make a great gift for someone who wants to get into drones, its fun and easy to learn on. It's has some great features like, GPS transmission, wifi app control, follow me guide,hd video, auto hover, one key turn, and ability to fly up 2000 feet. This drone also comes with a phone holder to easily fly and control your device with using your mobile phone. The remote control is easy to use and ergonomically friendly. The controller is nice in the hands, balances okay with a Pixel and quite well with an iPhone or android device The drone is very controllable even when there is a breeze. The strength of this drone is very strong fighting through really windy days. The instructions were clear and within minutes of downloading the app it was up and flying. The app it uses is compatible with Iphone and other operating system based devices. The instructions for setup is very clear and with lot of videos to watch. I will say that my drone did everything it was designed to do and especially with the safety features for beginners, they are AWESOME. The video and pictures look nice as long as I keep the flight smooth. The photos took by the aircraft are very clear. The video is smoothly when captured in flying mode. The camera has a 180 degree view. Total flying time has been from 25 to 35 minutes. There's different speeds to the drone as it flys and it's easy to make it take off and return to you. This drone has intelligent GPS so you can keep track of your drone during flight. Thanks to gps, which I think is a must. After reading the directions and some practice, i did NOT have a crash and burn episode and did NOT lose the drone. The active track is much better, although I have not used it much. Everything came in a handy carrying case. It is a really nice case made of premium-feeling materials and holds everything perfectly. The case with everything in it is super light and sturdy for easy transport. It's very compact when folded and fits well into a small-ish case so parts dont get lost. Sincerely, a very satisfied new drone flyer! Overall a great product that I would recommend to others.
Foldable Camera drone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] By far this is the best product I’ve ever owned! I love this drone. It is lightweight, foldable, and amazing. It has nice features you can program it to follow you and go down to where it originally flew from!
Great starter drone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Drones can seem a bit overwhelming at first, but the VTI Phoenix instructions made it easy to figure things out. It includes two batteries, which are usb C powered, giving you approx 32-36 minutes of fight time. Batteries take between 3-5 hours to fully charge, so overnight is easiest time to do it. There are 4 replacement sets of propellers included and a nice sturdy hard case for storage. The range is a bit limited at 2,000ft but should satisfy most needs as long as you don't need it to go too far. I like the features that it has like "Follow Me" through the app. You can also hover in place and take some amazing wide view HD photos. The camera can also rotate 180°! Pretty cool. There's a one button return feature, perfect for when using with my kids. This is recommended for ages 8+ but I would suggest parental guidance to limit potential breakage and responsible flying.
Awesome drone!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a bit of experience with drones, both large and small, cheap and expensive. This little guy, and I mean little when compacted, is absolutely amazing! Its super easy to fly, its fun, the camera is great quality and there's no worries about it flying off or losing it with its GPS return to home feature! A little tip for that, wait about a minute before liftoff and you get a fairly strong satellite signal so you takeoff with a nice solid GPS lock. The range is pretty decent, you wont be going miles out but you definitely wont see this drone at max range. I never really found myself taking it out that far anyway, maybe a few hundred feet. The battery life is phenomenal! I typically get around 25-28 min out of it. Overall this drone is an amazing deal! I'd consider it an intermediate drone and with all the features you absolutely cannot go wrong!! If you're on the fence about getting one, just go ahead and do it, you won't regret it!
This is such a cool product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This drone is so cool it's easy to use and easy to set up it features GPS Transmission, app control, follow me mode as well as HD articulating wide angle view also auto hover and one key return its also 2000feet+ flight range also comes with its very own carrying case which is awesome and it's also 180 degree rotating camera and 36+ minute's total flight includes 2 batteries this is a very great quality and it's durable and I definitely recommend it. Pros: Durable Quality Value All its features Cons: N/A Definitely recommend it.
A very good one!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] VTI Phoenix Foldable GPS Camera Drone by far exceeds any expecatations when it goes to a drone, at least as a starter one that won't hurt the wallet. To start off, it was a 2K resolution with a vertical 180 view, optimal sensors on the bottom for a steady hover, and plenty of automotive features like "follow me, circle me, return to home" just to name a few commands and features. Some drones can not compare to the range of this 2000 ft and around 30 minutes of flight time. With auto take off and land, you can also adjust the speed when commutable. It makes it a breeze! It is worth a gift or for anyone wanting to get into the craze. Highly recommend this to anyone.
