Propel HD Video Drone

It's easy to fly, I reccomend getting good on a mini drone before buying a larger drone, more weight = harder falls = broken toy , learn to fly then go bigger, as with anything humans control it's only as good as the operator, it's a great drone for 80$ people act like it's a dji and it's indestructible, like it has brushless motors and can fly in 20 mph winds, which it simply can't you paid 80$ you get what you pay for..I upgraded from a propel mini drone, this drone is equally as good only larger, it is 6 axis and on speed 3 it's rather quick, you get what you pay for its not a dji. It's probably rather flemsy so adequate understanding of drone flight is my reccomendation, don't expect anything that flies to do great in wind, or to be un-breakable, fly above soft ground and stay closer to the ground, fly in a clear area, away from trees and buildings, be aware when you go above a building there may be what's called rotors, or a form of wind shear, however it's worth 80$ it's powerful for a beginner toy, the camera works exceptionally well, the Wi-Fi feature is sweet, I wouldn't reccomend fpv flight as the only view as it's a little lagy and there's no altitude reference so obstacles become surreal and crashes are going to happen, most likely resulting in a broken drone..

Not very happy with product. Broke on first bad landing!

I got it from Tractor supply on black Friday for 100$. The biggest problem is that you cant get any parts for it. I went to the Propel website to look for a spare battery. To look for parts you have to sign up for there "Flight club." After I did that I found out that they don't sale any parts for the altitude 2.0, which this is. So if you break it than you are out of luck. It fly's ok but If there's a slight breeze you have to fight it to keep it in one spot. If you are using the camera alot the battery only last for about 7 minutes. The camera's angle was nonadjustable. But they have a helicopter with the same camera that is adjustable. After tacking it apart I found that they put super glue on the pivoting part to lock it in place. And after some scraping I got it to adjust from 10 deg to 60 deg. It was locked in at 60 deg that makes it impossible to shoot the horizon.

have one, I like it, for beginners, really like altitude hold, got some cool video. crashed it, need parts Propel 2.0 altitude hd. Help

I got this at Costco for 80$ and it was great fun! Pretty OK camera but not great video. Had it for around 6 months an then I wrecked it at about 40 ft high and SNAP there goes an arm! But all and all its pretty fun!

I got a descent sized Propel for my 16th birthday 3 years ago, (I know this is late). The build quality is flimsy, the camera quality is poor, and the app for the camera is not well optimized. Kinda like a low budget android phone. I just got back to using it, and I remember why I stopped three years ago. Even though the leading edge of both rear propellers are in tact, i find the drone had and still has a hard time deciding which propeller(s) to use when I tilt the drone to a different point on a given axis. The accelerometer (if the drone even has one), doesn’t function properly. I tried tearing it apart, and the Philips screws are very tiny, and the propeller screws are deeply embedded in the undercarriage of the prop wells. I’m going to scrap mine. Save your money. An AirHog would honestly work better. Thank you for your time.

Was given this as a gift from a friend who got it a couple years ago and never opened the box. I've flown a lot of drones and not gonna lie this felt cheap. Prop guards don't seat very well and its very light plastic. I watched the video, set to channel 3 and as soon as I added thrust it took off sideways and flipped as if a prop was on wrong. Checked and rechecked and it still flipped on take off. I then found I needed to calibrate the gyro by moving the controllers a certain way and it finally took off and flew correctly. Suggesting a move to channel 3 and calibrating the gyro should be bold faced and front and center in the instructions.

My son used this drone for one hour the first day he got it and then the second time he went to fly it, it went up and he pushed the auto-land button and it flew away. It didn't matter what other buttons he pushed it just kept going. Biggest waste of money ever! Customer service said there was nothing they could do but offer me 10% off of buying another one. Umm....NO! Why would I buy another one? Lesson learned.
