Received the drone today, charged both batteries and they worked for all of 30 seconds

This drone drifts and has horrible battery life

but then when we got the drone there was a card in the box saying we’d get a free battery if we left 5 stars

But the specialized rechargeable battery for the drone takes about 2-3 days to charge and then only works for about 5 minutes

One thing I really liked was the new modular battery which you get, not one but, Two included with the drone

I told them about the motor failure (and that I’d fixed it myself) and they sent me a free battery and charger for my trouble

So even if you have a extra battery ready to change it, you should wait 10 minutes before next flight.

I had the other battery full charged as well, and allso lasted 5 minutes

the batteries are very bad, last less 1 minutes

The batteries do die quickly, but they warn you about that too and do include 2 of them

lousy item battery life is terrible would love to get a refund on

The dual batteries are really helpful, as is the thought put in to include extras for little parts like the propellers and the joysticks.

The only downside, small batteries

the flight time is super limited...mere minutes...by the time you can get it to stop drifting the battery is dead... this is going back ... even in my basement it drifts into a wall within seconds of take off

The second battery is very nice and it collapses down into a drone that can easily fit in your pocket

Nice it comes with 2 batteries and offer for a third free battery.

(pack comes with two, but you can get another battery free through Holy Stone swag card incl).

Battery life is not long, but extra battery is easy to change out for additional flying time.

Free battery for a review, but I wanted to be able to give an honest review because that's what I used to determine my original purchase.

I left a video as a warning and also an explanation for the inflated amount of positive reviews here, they offer you a free battery for a positive review, how is this legal

The second battery is very nice and it collapses down into a drone that can easily fit in your pocket

I want my free other battery for the review 😂

The new enclosed battery is powerful and gives you a pretty long burn time

Low battery life but super fun to fly!

Recommend buying extra batteries for extra flying time and HIGHLY RECOMMEND this fun drone!

I do not think this is the drone you are looking for...first off almost every review here is because the manufacturer offers you a free battery if you leave a review

One battery had no issues, however one had about

wish they developed a better battery.

I've tried all the batteries which are charged, and the drone refuses to turn on when I press the power button

Connecting to the WI-FI is cumbersome and needs to be reconnected every battery change or bump that causes a battery disconnection

The drone comes with two batteries with a coupon for a free battery

I was continually filling the controller with batteries (expensive) and endlessly charging the battery

Got it as a gift for Christmas, just the batteries die too fast

The batteries are easily accessible and can be replaced very quickly

They give you a free battery for a good review, you will have to give them 30x5 star ratings to fly the drone for 2 minutes!

I've had less expensive toy RC drones that do more with cheaper extra batteries

Love having the extra battery, one of the main reasons I wanted this drone was the extra battery which allows me to keep flying

If you don’t push the battery into the drone just-right, the battery can fall out in flight and cause a crash

Easy to operate, but short battery life

The batteries seem pretty strong as well.

The batteries seem pretty strong as well.

My batteries don't seem to work as advertised

This is a nice little drone it comes with all you need to fly plus an extra battery

The third drone works great, however, the battery (when fully charged) only lasts 2-3 minutes.

Buy like 6 batteries and chargers

The third drone works great, however, the battery (when fully charged) only lasts 2-3 minutes.

First few attempts at flying the batteries fell out, but soon I realized they weren’t clicked into place

It’s nice that you get two with the drone and there’s an offer for an extra free battery in the box, but with an average of 4-5 minutes flight time while streaming video or flying with your phone (slightly longer if you use the dedicated controller

The battery on the drone doesn't last very long though, but other than that, no complaints.

The extra battery has been really helpful as it allows for extra flying time

OK yes promised free battery with review

It is quite sturdy and the batteries seem to work better than advertised

After I get it set up and hooked up to the internet to video 'record the battery dies

But now the right rear side propeller doesn’t stop when you put a fresh battery into the drone

It has a good battery life for such a small drone and is relatively stable during flight.

Great drone, easy to control, battery lasts decently long.

We had a slight problem with the batteries, but upon contact with Holy Stone, which was very quick, they will be shipping us out new batteries free of charge.

As a plus the package came with a card to receive a free battery

I would not reccomend and wpuld stay away from this "toy".All 5 stars are because people want a free battery

Easy and intuitive to fly, decent battery life, very quick response to controls, camera and app shoot decent video

The HS160 Shadow plummeted like a rock (as it should) falling in fact so fast I could hear the props auto-rotating slightly, and bounced off the pasture.

I know its just a box, but its very sturdy and very cool as it has a magnetic closure with a ribbon to open it.

I have used this micro drone helping me to visualize issues in and around the roof and chimney, as well as in our crawlspace under the house.

alittle hard, as hard as it can being only 8” up

I would still highly recommend against flying this outside even with the most minor of winds as it really can't be controlled well and the wind will take it

The live footage is definitely a good feature that isn`t too easy to find in a hundred dollars.
