DEERCDrone with Camera for Adults and Kids 2K HD FPV Live Video, RC Quadcopter Helicopter with Waypoints, Altitude Hold, One Key Start, Headless Mode, 3D Flip, Long Flight

Pros:This DEERC D-10 drone is larger than I expected, and very powerful. It has three speeds (Default is low) and it is very agile on the highest speed. The weather has not been ideal to test a lightweight drone, but I flew it this weekend in five mph winds with gusts to twelve mph. I was able to keep it under control. Once the wind caught it an blew it almost completely out of my sight. I pressed the one key land button and it safely landed. By putting the speed on the highest setting, it was able to fly even in the gusts, but remember it is exceptionally light. Due to its weight, you do not have to register it with the FAA. The controller is one of the best that I have used, the buttons are easy to memorize the positions, so that you do not have to keep looking down at the buttons. Some of the buttons are multi-function. One will allow you to circle fly around a point of interest, another allows you to allow the drone to spin. You can exit either mode by pressing the button again.Very User-Friendly, the D10 is extremely user-friendly it comes with one key take off/landing, Altitude Hold, Headless Mode, Speed Adjustment functions, adapts to all experience levels even for beginners to intermediate; 3D Flips function makes flight fun even for drone beginners. The holder for your phone fits at the bottom of the controller and is held very securely. Most other controllers have a narrow clamp at the top and your phone can sometimes feel like it might fall. The manual is very well written. Sometimes some of these manuals seem to be written by people with limited English ability so it is difficult to decipher what is being said. This manual is the exception. It is very well written and easily understood.Advance Features:You can draw Waypoints on your smartphone, the drone will follow the path that you draw. Show your palm or make a "V" sign to the front of the camera, the D10 will then automatically take a photo or video.You can control the drone through the gravity sensor in your phone, flying it without a using the controller; Or control your drone with simple voice commands like "take off", "landing", "left", "right", "forward", "backward"CONS:The only con that I can cite, is the fact that it is very light for a medium sized drone. This means that you cannot fly it in winds that are above ten mph (until you get used to the controls). In my experience it never crashed, even though it was driven pretty hard by the winds, but I was always able to safely land it. The large, sturdy prop guards keep it safe.I did have trouble flying it indoors. I have a lot of furniture and "stuff" in the rooms in my house, and narrow hallways. The strong motors and large props create a very strong prop wash, which is harder to control indoors. If you have large spacious areas, it would not be a problem. I flew it in our church gymnasium, and it flew very well and was a lot of fun. Since DEERC upgraded the camera from 720 to 1440, I can highly recommend this drone, which due to its strong construction, should give you a lot of fun for your money.

The media could not be loaded.  The shipping was quick and arrived as described, all in good working condition. It was well packaged and everything in it's place. In the box, The drone, remote, two batteries, two charging cords, four prop guards, four extra props, screwdriver and instructions. Please read the instructions. The instructions are basic and well wrote. The drone feels to be well made of a sturdy plastic, the arms fold out and lock into place securely and the guards easily clip onto each arm. I would recommend using the prop guards until getting used to flying. The LED lights on all four arms are nice and bright and can be seen well in flight. The props are rigid and held in place with one screw and a nice little cover, makes for a sleek look. The camera is pretty much stationary but takes a good photo and as you learn you can get some nice video. The batteries are well built and fit snuggly into the back of the drone and lock into place. They charged in about an hour and gave me about ten minutes of flight time per battery. The remote feels good in the hands and with the phone(Galaxy S10 in a case) in place is well balanced. The control sticks are firm and all control buttons are placed for easy access. It take AA batteries that are not included. The remote paired with the drone with no problem and controlled it without a glitch. The app was easy to locate and download, installed with no issues. It is strait forward and easy to understand, easy to learn. The app and drone kept a good connection with very little glitching. You can also fly the drone with the app on your phone. After fully charging the drone batteries and doing a complete preflight inspection, the first flight. Pressing the auto takeoff button the drone lifted off and with little trim adjusting it hovered pretty well. Staying in speed 1 until getting used to the controls and the reaction of the drone, speed 2 was more responsive, speed three is for high speed fun after learning 1 and 2. In speed 3 you can really get the drone moving and get it to do some fun turns and flips. The drone performed all flips, forward, backwards and both left and right on command. The auto rotate and auto circle worked well. After flying until the battery was low flew back to takeoff point hit the auto land button the drone landed on target. Flying this drone was a lot of fun I was able to take a few photos and a video, as you can see it didn't do to bad. All in all I have to say that the DEERC D10 is a quality toy drone and I would highly recommend it. The D10 is easy to learn and easy to fly making it a great starter drone for young beginners and even one for the adult to have a little fun.

This light little DeeRC D10 Drone Flies very nice The hoover is nice and stable the flips work nice, Controls are smooth and battery life is around 7 to 10 min depends on how much throttle you give it. This drone is so quiet you can barely hear it, It comes with a set of extra prop's 2 batteries and 2 charging cables and a small screwdriver. VERY compact when folded up, I have not crashed it yet so I can not attest to the strength and durability of it, I think if you crash it maybe the fact that it does fold up might help it survive. I don't want to find out. This is the issue I had-- JUST MAKE SURE your phone you are going to be connecting to this drone is a 5ghz WiFi compatible Phone, NOT to be confused with a 5G phone, that is cellular, your phone needs to be able to connect to a 5ghz WiFi network if not you will not be able to connect to the camera,, Like me.Maybe when I buy a new phone ,, it will work with the new drone.UPDATE -- Over the weekend I used a friends phone to try the HD Camera, The phone did hook up, The APP opened and the Display looks real good on the ground, But then got choppy once I took off, Would be hard to fly just by looking at the phone screen, It had a little delay to it, BUT I will say this drone does fly nice. If your outside in the bright sun its hard to tell when the battery is getting low cause you cant see the LED's on the drone, Then all of a sudden it lands, Get another battery.
