James, my mom got this for my nephew and asked me to figure it out for him. I came here first and feel a lot better going into it. Thanks for some good info!
Awesome, glad it helped, i need to update the video, its a year old
Just got mine now! Thanks for your video! It’s a great guide for a beginner like me!
Always waiting for new budget drone review like this one from you james! Thanks a lot!👍
Yes, this one is a pretty awesome way for people to get started.
Thankyou so much for this review, very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Picked it up today at HD. Couldn't believe the price so I bought it. So glad to see your review was so positive. I'm getting more too!
You always have the best instructional video's
I was actually in line and google this drone in home depot. As soon as you said your going back tonstore to buy all of them. I grabbed it lol. Great review. Thank you. My 1st official drone 😊
Good choice! I have given them all away and everyone really likes them, i need to update the price from last year
I just ordered two of these drones because of this video . Great gift ideas
Great tutorial thank you
LOL - You beat me to it!! Mine will go up tonight! Great review as always!!
Great review and wonderful to see a drone for beginners that has some quality and will not set you back a bunch of money.
These are great because they are so easy to fly, so many cheap drones are quirky and impossible to control and make people be scared to ever buy another one!
Great and informative channel. I am beginning my journey with flying drone so I decided to pick up one from Home Depot today here in Los Angeles. Tomorrow I’ll unbox it thanks to your review sir. Happy new year 2023!!
Awesome, it’s a fun little drone for beginners , Happy New Year!
Pretty cool for a $30 drone. Looks cute and flies really well too. Thanks for sharing it with us my friend! God bless.
Thanks to my UA-cam Buddy!
can't wait to try it. Great video
Thanks James, for your concise and honest review......
Thanks So much sir!
@@b4ugo Lol....my sons call me mama. That's ok, you didn't know, honest mistake. Tell cousin Kathy, I said ,"Hello, from Florida." She'll figure it out..
Thank you. Something genuine about cha.
Nice video! That last 20 secs would be perfect as your end screen
Great review James! It looked like you were really having a fun time flying this drone. It looks like it might be the next best. Beginner drone besides the HS-210. The price seems to be well worth the money. Thanks again. P.S. I hope you & Kathy and your entire family had a great thanksgiving!
hanks So much Tim, same to yous. Even though I lost my mother this week and today is her birthday. I will give her Ullage Sunday.
@@b4ugo oh no! I am sorry to hear that, My condolences to you & your family, also sending thoughts & prayers to you all. my mom just turned 97 this past Thursday the 25th. I will say an extra prayer for your Mom on Sunday. Take Care! God bless you & your family!
Thank you! Took thing apart to realize I need to calibrate the gyro.. silly me, thanks again
Thanks for tips, keep on, bro
Thanks, this is a really fun drone if you follow a pre start checklist
My daughter is in film, o got it for her! She will love it!!
Thanks for this. New subscriber 👍🏾
Awesome, thank you!
I liked it so much, I bought two of them and are really amazing for just $ 30 I have an DJI mavic pro too and this small drone you can do many things and not to be worried about crashes because it’s thought and light
I agree, I have given away about 10 of them, I cant believe how much fun this drone is (and it has a camera) for $30, a great way for someone to get started for the cost of going to a movie! Happy Holidays!
Pretty impressive for a $30 drone seriously, great starter to get more people into the hobby for sure!
Yes, some $30 will make people hate drones, this one is really easy to fly
@@b4ugo Totally agree, people hate drone technology because they have never done it and don't understand it. Once you take someone on a flight and they see the view, it's like oh ok this is cool! Karen's are everywhere lol
Thanks man!! Mine did not come with the instruction book. BTW you have a nice house.
great video...i love this thing! any links on a bigger stronger replacement battery? Thanks again
They have them on GETFPV, i just had a bunch of them from other older drones, they all seem to use that connector
Where can I buy more batteries or one that will last longer? Think mine made it 7 minutes...maybe
you fly this thing effortlessly ! mine starts chasing me after a while 🤣🤣🤣
Lol, I have give away 10 of these and everyone loves them, good cheap way to learn to fly
Seems like a lot of fun for this price!!
James.....why are you always showing cool stuff like this?!
Lol, I love cheap drones. But, I did just get the Mavic3
@@b4ugo i like playing around with the cheap ones also. My most expensive drone I bought was about 125 euros woth 3 batteries. It has gps and an up and down in air tiltable camera (camera is not great but still fun).
Still remember my first time flying outdoors and the thing doing a return to home because of a low battery...I kind of thought I would lose it for a minute there.
@@b4ugo you know I like cheap drones (remember the ky-101 😉)
I got one of these and the camera records upside down. Any suggestions?
Great video. Quick question, my skywriter wants to take off toward the right and I am struggling to keep it huvering and steer gradually to the direction of my choice. Is there a way to adjust so the drone starts out hovering before I choose to steer?
Are you setting the gyro’s on a very flat Surface away from metal? Once you get it in the air should be able to set trim. Also, check to see if a prop is bent. Thanks for watching
This is a really great review! Not too long, straight and to the point! Didn’t waste time on needless things.
I’m here because my wife gifted this to me as just something to tinker with. Never flown a drone before….this might actually get me into them.
One question: roughly how long would you say the battery lasts?
Thanks so much fellow James!
@@b4ugo Hi ,Someone Returned The Drone At The Home Depot That I work at and ,I scanned it to see how much that it was and It was $12.49.I saw wow for That Price at am taking it home with me.
Just bought one after watching
Just got one from home depot. Unfortunately I live in nyc and it's November.. I'll be patient and wait for a semi nice day to try it out. So cheap too. Battery issue isn't much of an issue just charge it while it's still in the drone. Easy to use...great performance...if the camera quality was better I'd honestly say it's the best on the market for the value
Sad, you cant fly anywhere near NYC, they are trying to change that
@@b4ugo but u can
For beginners like me 😃
I went to every local home depot around the time that you made this video and they were all sold out. Wanted to get one since my last one disappeared in someones backyard.
Where ar me you located?
@@b4ugo Kansas
Is it me, or did the drone in the first few minutes of the video, look completely from the one at the end?
Hey James & Kathy, what time is the drawing for the drone giveaway ? Thanks 🙏🏻
Probably about 7. CST
I work at Home Depot and was shocked to see drones right in the front unlocked.
Yes, I bought about 15 of the last year to give away, pretty cool little drone for the price. Thanks for watching
I work at Home Depot n I just seen this now. Bouta buy when I’m off
Lol same here. I got one as soon as it came off the RDC
Home depot has had drones available on their app.
Every so often I check out what they have to offer.
The app has all kinds of things home depot doesn't keep at stores.
Thinking of ordering a still next!! For science projects only & distilling water
I love the drone. Only problem I had was that the legs are very thin plastic. Mine broke
Duck tape or super glue, lol, thanks for watching
Not sure if you have tried any other batteries in it yet. I shoved a 3.7 800mah into mine. Tight fit, but doubles the flight time!
I thought about it, I need to go check out your review!
where did you get the bigger battrey
@@kevinlawlor7065 from another drone :) But they are available online.
I can barely fit a large 600 mH. Same a tight fit but it works.
Mine is not connecting to its Wi-Fi. It is united with controller, but doesn’t connect to its Wi-Fi that does show itself. Any guidance? Oh guess what you have to hold them apart a long longer then I thought. :)
Try a different device, i bought about 15 of them last year and dint have any trouble, also, try deleting the app and reinstalling it. You understand it is the wifi of your device and no the home wifi? Thanks for watching
I have a hs720e LOVE. Their customer service is the best.. Better than any other drone out there. What is the best drone hollystone makes?
The best is the 700E, but they make the best beginner drone the HS210 and the HS110D is the best drone for the value, but the HS510 is funnest to fly, its really quick
I just bought a x-32 n was wondering if u have tried that. I haven’t found any videos on the x-32
no, havent heard of it, was it at Home Depot? Ill check it out
ok, it looks like the same drone, Kohls just changed the number and doubled the price
I eyeballed this one hard but that runtime made me put it back on the display shelf lol looks cool though
The HS430 flies for 12 minutes with 3 battteries and is $30 with my 40% off discount code, would you like it?
@@b4ugo i bought one from home depot to try out since the run time in your video seems longer than advertised. I’ll hold off on battery upgrades for now, thanks!
I cant control the quality
How long should the battery last? I was gifted one but doesn’t seem to hold longer than 15min
That’s actually pretty long for that little battery, I only get about 10 minutes. You can get more batteries pretty cheap or much more powerful batteries fit in pretty easy, if I remember it’s a 700mph battery and can handle a 1,200 pretty easy
I have one and went to go use it for the first time in a few months and it just stopped responding to controls. Remote will link, drone still turn on, camera works. Just will not even try to start the props. Sucks cause I needed to use it to look at my roof
Two questions, one are you sure you’re unlocking the props? Two, did you buy at Home Depot?
how does one slow it down, ours seem to only know how to fly back words
and fast and crashes all the time
Be sure and do a gyro calibration on flat land, i have bought 15 of them and never had a problem.
I just brought this same drone about a month ago my first drone and I find it to be awesome I am just crazy looking for a extra battery even for a longer capacity running time battery any information would be greatly appreciated. Great video
They have them really cheap on Bangood but it takes weeks to get them. Try “GetFPV”
Amazon $22 for five with a five bank charger. 1200 ahm instead of 600 that it comes with
@@retiredleo6639 what's the link of the 1200mah battery that will fit that drone.
Hi! Great review. How many feet can we get in air?
A few hundred feet, but the higher you go the better chance it has of catching wind, it doesn’t use GPS to keep its position. So, I wouldnt go over 100 feet, Merry Christmas!
Great video! I was wondering why my drones camera isn't connecting to the app? I connected the wifi. But the camera won't show up. I hope you have a good day.
Couple things, how old is your phone, try deleting the app and reinstalling it and try to put your phone in airplane mode, i bought 15 of then and they all flew awesome. I’m sure it can be worked out! Happy New Year!
@@b4ugo I have a Samsung Galaxy A11 which came out in 2020. I tried all your suggestions but still have a blank screen that keeps loading. I am using the app from the play store and there are a few reviews that have my same problem. Thank you so much for the help. Happy New Year!
Idaho has them
I bought a used drone and it doesn't have a recharging cable. Can you tell what type of cable I need to buy?
sorry, missed this question, it is a very common connection, Ebay or Amazon should have plenty
@@b4ugo can you tell me what it is called (model number )
Can anyone help me,I just bought this and the controller won’t connect to the drone
Push up and down on the left joy stick to get it to bind! Hope that helped Mathew! Happy New Year!
for mine the motor just stopped getting power after a couple days
Sorry to hear that, did you get it at Home Depot? I bought 15 and they all worked great
I would love one James, but not available in Canada, sad.
Try Walmart
@@b4ugo I did but thanks. No luck here in Canada.
I would buy one but some crazy dude bought all of them at my Home Depot.
Lol, i plan on giving you one! See you Sunday
Does anyone know if I buy one of the 1200mah batteries will that last longer? Or just burn it up?
I know of someone that did that and got 15 minutes of flight time, and it didn’t. Hurt it at all. Merry Christmas. I am sure they have them on amazon or GETFPV
@@b4ugo Thank you! Merry Christmas!
I wish he would have videod the remote to see how he was controlling it. That would have been helpful.
any idea why my controller doesn’t make any noise and i can’t change the speed or do flips?
Did
You get it at Home Depot?
@@b4ugo yes awhile ago and it has never done flips or anything
Sold out in Fairbanks, Alaska! I got one!
Awesome, is it to cold there to fly?
Something to add it only fly for 6 to 8 minutes mostly 6 so yeah more battery’s are needed
They are pretty universal, I’m
Sure they just included one to keep. Cost down. I know someone that added a battery with double the power and gets 15 minutes from it and it didn’t hurt the drone. Merry Christmas
@@b4ugo thank you so much for answering most UA-camrs don’t, I’d love to know what battery your friend got and where I can get them I got this for Christmas thanks to you and I love it merry Christmas to you my friend
Yo dude, What is standby time we will get without camera on? Please tell dude
If your asking me how long it files with out the camera it’s 7-8 minutes. Don’t think taking the camera off makes much difference. A friend put a battery almost twice as big and got 15 minutes. The connecter is the same as many drones!
@@b4ugo thanks 👍😊
@@b4ugo can we put another battery? So the time increase? And is 10 minute standy is that bad?
I just bought one...
Is it a good video quality???
It's good for the price. Plus it flies! Thanks for watching
How "well" it flies.
Its funny i just got 2 of them for 30 bucks from someone in the parking lot i think they were hot lol
Lol, don’t think someone would steal something so cheap, but, ya never know. Sometimes people just charge stuff and sell just to get the cash! Enjoy, they are fun flyers
So what's the flight time?
About 7 minutes, but I put a 800 Mph battery in it and it got 12-13
@@b4ugo thank you very much.
What I don't like about this drone is how tiny everything is. I mean the screws connecting the blades and everything else it's one tiny *** screw. Also I'm not too fond of their documentation. I haven't actually got it fly yet. I might be back
Screws and everything like that are small on very expensive drones also, its a great drone to start wiht
Simular?
Not sure if your question sir.
Has GIMBAL? Video Camera
No sir, the camera is stationary
It's not charging for me :(
how long was the battery sitting? also make sure its pushed all the way in and the connection is clear and clean, they do sell extra batteries on Amazon.
Can i get one
Yeppers, they are at Home Depot
Says it has a charging time of 2 hours but only an operating time of 6-8 minutes…seems like a bit of a let down.
So the video is not good?
It’s ok for the price. But it really flies pretty good
Good flier. Really shocking cheap drone.
i can't see how motors are good quality...they must be brushed for so cheap... 10 years ago you would pay $150 for that imo..
At home Depot now it's $35
I just noticed that, I made this video over a year ago, I’ll chance the Thumbnail but can’t change the video, thanks for watching. Maybe I’ll reshoot it
@@b4ugo I think the video is ok... Now I'll see tomorrow if I'll Christmas story my eye tomorrow
Uh up to 79
They went up to $35, definitely not worth that!
My video on this drone isn’t that bad
It’s that crazy? I was surprised! Happy Holidays!
Works great for the first couple flights. Then the motors don’t have enough lift to fly it. Don’t listen to all these paid for comments.
Hmmm, I have flown mine many times and I bought mine (actually 15 of them to give away for Christmas Presents) and don’t for any reviews from the manufacturer, but thanks for watching and have a great year in 2022
It fly's pretty good. But it can only go 100ft before thing go south. First the camera loses communication, so you have to have eyes on it all the time. Camera quality is terrible. Has to wifi images to your phone, and that is horrible. Battery last 8 minutes. Can't use it to take any good pictures. Go ahead... waste your money.
I litterly got mine for FREE ! The on-sale price tag was NOT coordinating with their computers. They took forever to try and make the register identify it as a item. After so long they told me I could have. They felt bad taking so long trying to figure out why it wouldn't scan
That was a year ago. I haven't taken it out of its box yet. I have No clue about Drones.
Great drone to learn on
Can I use VR Goggles with this ?
The kind your phone fits into
@@b4ugo I'm sorry, you responded to my question 6 months ago and I'm just seeing it right now. Not sure of your response? I have a Android phone . Can I fly this drone through VR headset,and if so, do I have to spend a lot of money on them to get a good experience ?
One more question. Is it harder to learn to fly these drones through the VR setup ?
I know flying RC Airplanes should be easier in a way . Thank you .
