For a first time drone purchase I am extremely satisfied with this product. Easy to learn how to fly. Camera has nice video and picture quality. Easy to understand manual. Good video tutorials.The one thing that I didn't like was the handheld transmitter will only hold up to a certain size / width phone. My newer Samsung GalaxyS23 was to wide to fit in the spring loaded phone holder. I happened to have held onto an older Samsung that was narrow enough to fit in the holder, and had newer enough software to be compatible with the app. (The manual states your phone must have a 5.0 or higher version for Android phones, which my older phone was a 7.0 )I also tried using my new Samsung S9+ tablet to load the Holystone App on, and was disappointed to have my tablet tell me that IT wasn't compatible with the App. Not sure if this is because its a tablet and not a phone, or what ........Anyways , I still am enjoying my purchase of the HS 280D. For the cost, it is a great starter drone if you are looking for one as your first.Sincerely, Greg in NW Missouri USA
As a complete notice, I purchased this drone to learn to fly. It is fun and pretty good for that purpose but it has the expected limitations even slightly more advanced flyers will probably find annoying. The setup for WiFi connections were unclear and it took me a while to realize the WiFi was coming from the DRONE not from my home WiFi. Once figured that out, it was pretty easy to connect the drone's camera to my phone via the app. Transmission of the video is laggy preventing fly by sight. The camera is low res and isn't particularly crisp but it was good enough for me to find debris left on my roof by some maintenance guys!. Flying time is very limited but the spare battery is nice to have and makes for longer practice sessions. These limitations are to be expected for an inexpensive/cheap first drone but, overall I have really been enjoying learning to fly...and at this price, I don't worry about my occasional rapid descent!
Its a good drone for kids and new learners who want to learn. Try it and u will enoy it.
Ok.. we have received it
The price of the HS280D (less than $100) is very attractive. The brushless motors are very quiet. Comes with 2 modular batteries It also seems to be very quick. Nice looking drone and hovers well if there is no wind. This is the area I did not like. Any wind and the drone has a mind of its own. You can’t take your eyes of it or it could disappear. There are two speeds and you need to be in high to have any chance of getting back to your home base with some breeze. If you are looking for a beginner drone you are better off with a gps one. A least you can look at the phone for a photo. Flight time is decent.
Great drone for the money.
When I started looking for a drone to kill spare time, I wanted something I could operate, afford, and crash without feeling it's a waste of money. The Holy Stone 280D fits the bill! It is very simple to operate but with enough of a challenge to hold my attention. Its priced reasonably to not break into my stash funds, and it is durable enough to withstand the few crashes I have already completed.Very pleased with the purchase and the quickness of the shipping. Oh, as I write this, I just get an alert for a Free battery offer from Holy Stone! Life is GOOD!
説明書のとおり使えて何も問題が無い。ホバリングなども安定して楽しく遊ぶことが出来る。
My daughter loves to play with it and the camera has very good quality.
I am an experienced drone pilot. This is the 9th drone I have owned. First launch, it rose about 50 feet up, disconnected and drifted off to the woods. I confirmed all the steps. App was connected, wifi linked, controls checked and confirmed. took off.... disconnection and gone. DO NOT BUY.
