4DRC V4 Drone with 1080P HD Camera for Adults and Kids, Foldable Quadcopter with Wide Angle FPV Live Video, Trajectory Flight, App Control,Optical Flow, Altitude Hold and 2 Modular Batteries

Great product

Bought to take aerial photos.Doesn't hover in place, and keeps drifting. So, taking photos that are sharp is almost impossible.Very fiddley controls, and every time has to be double or triple calibrated.keeps hitting obstacles, contrary to claims in video.Very short range of remote and mobile app. So, can easily run out of range, in which case cannot recall.Battery life shorter than claimed, and they take a very long time to recharge. So run out of charge very quickly and can easily disappear somewhere and will not be able to get back.In short, a very useless gadget, and nothing like what the video claims.

So first off the drone itself, it handles brilliantly it’s super easy to fly and is extremely stable, durability is impressive and controller range is surprisingly good additionally it’s sub 250g so it’s legal to fly within residential areas and doesn’t require registering.however a lot of the advertised features are not accurate at all, first off the camera is not 1080p hd it’s 640 x 360 so pictures and videos are blurry which is a shame as I bought this drone specifically for the 1080p camera and it is advertised as one of its main selling points it’s honestly a massive let down and the only reason I’m not returning this drone and reporting it for false advertising is because it is fun to fly and has Impressiv controls ive lost a fair bit of faith in this brand and will probably not be ordering anything from them in future, I highly recommend if you order this drone to check the cameras resolution and return it if it’s not 1080p, secondly the waypoint feature where you can draw a route on a map, it just doesn’t exist on the app, and alot off features on the app are disabled the second the drone is paired to the phone, the gesture control doesn’t work due to the low resolution you have to fly the drone uncomfortably close to your face to have any hope of it detecting your hands which is extremely unsafe.lastly camera latency, there’s a good 2 second delay between what’s happening with the drone and what’s displayed on camera, which means flying it fpv or through the camera view is nigh impossible, motion blurs also really bad so you may feel queasy trying to fly through the camera view, I’m aware this is a entry level drone but for 90 pounds I’d expect them to at least advertise honest specifications and to get a 1080p camera on a 1080p drone.Overall ratingsBattery life 7/10 - you get two batters and depending what your doing you can get 15-20 mins flight time per batteryDurability 7/10 - it is surprisingly tough, both the blades and body have only suffered minor cosmetic damage after me flying it into walls crashing and falling from heights of about 4 story’sRange and signal stability 6/10 - it goes as far as you’d expect, it’s no mavic so don’t expect to be flying it 4 odd kilometres away but it is beautiful for abit of fun and I haven’t had a single signal drop when flying it around large open spaces, such as fields, it does not handle buildings as well and range is impacted in urban environments but that’s to be expectedCamera and video quality 3/10 - I am so disappointed at this, the seller advertised it as 1080p hd and it is not it’s 640 x 360 which is one ninth of 1080p HD, camera latency is also bad along with motion blur, all of these likely would not be a issue if the drone was actually 1080p but it is not, if it’s night you will see absolutely nothing due to the low resolution and there are zero controls to allow you to change things like exposure, the filters are complete garbage but at least you have a zoom function which is practically redundant due to the low resolutionNoise 5/10 - it’s noisy, but it sound beautiful when flying itFlight 8/10 - super easy to fly the gearing modes controls your maximum pitch and the amount of thrust put out by the motors which means by switching between them you can get some really ergonomic control fidelity, auto landing and take off works adequately and the optical flow positioning worked far better then expected and the flips are entertaining, the led headlights on the front of the drone are surprisingly bright which means flying this drone at night in a field is far easier then you’d expect.After market parts 5/10 - the seller has a series of replacement rotors and spare battery’s for the drone so repairing or replacing certain parts will not be too hard, it is a shame that there’s no documentation on things such as the motors as those will eventually go.Overall 5/10 - fun to fly but a big let down in a lot of areasI’m going to see if I can replace the camera with something aftermarket in the event that allows me to upgrade to 1080p I wouldn’t recommend it though as I have no idea if it will still work with the app and it will void the warranty.

Got this for my partner as a gift and it is really good but the battery life lets it down a lot.It’s easy to control ones you get the hang of it and it’s pretty sturdy as we have crashed it a few times and it hasn’t broke. Comes in a box to it’s easy and nice to put away and has spare parts!

This drone is amazing, especially for the price (until I lost it into a tree on the second day 😭) one thing that isnt good though is the camera, if you want somthing to record videos or pictures with dont get this. Its like 5 fps and you cant even fly through the camera. The drone does not follow you either like it said on the picture.

This drone has a mind of its own. When I first flew it (inside with plenty of space) it would not hover, it’s continually drifted in whatever direction it wanted!Outside it couldn’t cope with the slightest breeze and simply flew away, when I attempted emergency landing as it was flying away, it refused to land until it collided with a high anti ball fence surrounding a cricked ground and broke a motor mount leg! According to the instructions this should’ve landed when I hit the button but continually done whatever it wanted, now I have an unfixable drone after one week

This is a great little bit of kit.A lot of these reviews say that the machine has a mind of its own or that it just flies off on the first flight. These seem to me unfair reviews, the product does take a bit of getting used to, just like any new RC product, but once you get a handle on the controls I cannot fault the manoeuvrability and control. The camera is great too, but again this is an aspect you have to get used to, appears very jolty until the get a grip on the flight controls.Battery life is as described but with 2 batteries this gives more than enough flight.I would 100% recommend this product, no doubt
