SIMREX X900 Drone with Optical Flow Positioning Technology for RC Quadcopter Flying

Jasonb: I got this one to try my flying abilities on the cheep side. Good little drone. Pics and videos are good. Controls take some time to figure out. Was able to inspect my roof without climbing up on it. Definitely recommend.

Roberge Putinaseos: We have been using this for a while now and it’s been a lot of fun. Works great and shoots video well! Easy for the kids to use as well!

Lee Makin: This thing was very shaky and unstable, even when in doors with as little draft as possible. Remote didn't want to connect to the drone a lot of the time. Very delayed response time to camera input. Also my first time outside where there was close to no wind with it, it almost went a few hundred feet in a nearly empty church parking lot in a random direction, almost hitting one of the few cars parked there. Finally tried to get a good air shot with the camera and I lost the thing because of very delayed camera feed to my phone before lost signal completely and now I can't find it.

AmazonCustomer - Mary D: First-time drone user. Easy set-up. Fairly sturdy and able to withstand those inevitable crashes; even comes with propeller bumpers. Personally, I found it much easier to control using the remote rather than the cell phone. Battery lasts about 10-15 minutes before needing to be recharged. Decent photo/video quality. Light and compact making it easy to pack for travel. Overall, an affordable choice and good quality – perfect drone for a novice flyer.

Wayne TMWayne TM: I've thought about buying drones before - but due to the price points of HD camera drones in this size, I've historically held off. I grabbed this one figuring it would be a great starter, and so far I think that was the right call! It's been easy to learn how to use it and to start getting comfortable with the controls. The included instructions leave a little to be desired, but if you're comfortable taking a few minutes experimenting, you'll get it all figured out. The companion app was easy to set up. Read the app reviews for some good tips on doing so.

The drone also has a cool FPV mode. Make sure you have someone acting as a visual observer if you're doing this. I happened to have an old Google Cardboard phone holder, and the app easily went into that mode and it was fun flying in first-person view.

After putting the battery (which is removable and replaceable) aside to charge, I deconstructed the foam in the product box and the drone, the included 8 extra blades and screwdriver, controller, and the aforementioned VR headset I already had all fit neatly in a shoebox with the foam for padding.

I look forward to more trips to the nearby park to fly some...
