It was definitely fun and flyable but again just prefer the standard mode 2 (variable potentiometer gimbal) layout

Frankly, I would strongly recommend position 2 or 3 for any outdoor flying).• Headless mode (can be very useful once you understand how it is

Pros-Stable (my son flew it easily first time w/no experience), decent flight time on a single charge (am getting about 8 minutes a flight as advertised), love the headless mode.

I however am a bit more experienced and prefer the traditional mode 2 setup with a variable potentiometer gimbal for roll and throttle

The headless mode allows the younger pilots to enjoy the toy in the first few minutes of flying

Like I said though, overall I am very happy with my Holy Stone purchases.

I don't regret the purchase, if anything I wish it came with an extra battery for longer fly times *

It would be an excellent purchase for a beginning drone pilot but don't let it fool you, even a veteran at drone flying will have a blast with this little critter

So if you are looking for a good quality drone to practice with or just have a little fun I highly recommend the HS170G.

VERY FAST!!!This HS170G has some very welcome improvements

I would highly recommend the HS170G to all newbies flying drones as well as to experienced flyers as it is extremely easy to fly and has (3) speeds

Holy Stone customer service contacted me to apologize for the misunderstanding

I have had a positive experience dealing with holy stone customer service

Holy Stone has shown me they care about what you spend your money on and have very good customer service.

I contacted Holy stone customer service about a question

but Holy Stone has the finest customer service in the industry hands down

This is a good beginner drone for practice and for determming if your interest level meets the need for spending more on a larger one with more features

Holy stone HS170G is a great beginner quadcopter for young and young alike

So if you are looking for a good quality drone to practice with or just have a little fun I highly recommend the HS170G.

The HS-170G impressed me even more than the HS-170 Predator (please see my review of that drone in Amazon)

This drone is a very good beginner, and intermediate drone

The good thing about this is that it's very light, very responsive, and has a good "horizontal" altitude hold

As an engineer, 2 petty things I took issue with were: 1) I felt some of the pictures in the instructions could have been taken from better angles

I would highly recommend the HS170G to all newbies flying drones as well as to experienced flyers as it is extremely easy to fly and has (3) speeds

My first flight with it was great it handles the outdoor wind excellent, indoors the speed is beyond my

Drone holds altitude nicely, even during forward/backward flight.

All in all, I am yet to explore more, the flight is great, but the altitude hold is something that needs to be worked upon by Holy Stone.

It has speed and trick modes too for more versatile flight.

This is a refreshingly helpful feature compared to the control systems I have from other drone manufacturers

Love the fact it has altitude hold nice feature, slow response in 1st and 2nd mode but put it 3 rd and enjoy the ride, had problems getting the drone to drop in elevation when I wanted to, compared to the

The drone is packed with cool features such as the 360 flip feature were you can flip the drone forward, backwards, left, or

Great features like, 3D flip, autohover, different speeds, headless mode, etc.5

The Holystone HS-170G (Night 11) is quite a bit more advanced as far as features and capabilities are concern

I love Holy Stone, and their products are great regardless of your skill level.

flying time according to the size battery you use it is a great flying little drone I give it two thumbs up another great product by Holy Stone

The product has good protection for its propellers and so nothing broke

Altitude hold - perfect for fast flights and not worrying about altitudeHeadless mode

What I like the most about the hs170g is the altitude hold its much easier to fly than the hs170 I've been flying it for a few hours now and everything is working really good.

Great little drone, altitude hold good, very responsive, durable

The not-so-good things about the drone are the altitude hold (driven by the throttle stick) and the trimming function, resulting in poor altitude stability

As I mentioned above, the drone has a good "horizontal" altitude hold, but not a complete altitude hold, meaning that the drone stays horizontal/parallel to the ground, but is not able to consistently maintain the same height from the ground

As far as the fastest speed I was pretty impressed on how quick it is

- Multiple speed levels, and top speed is pretty quick, too!Remote - Great design, simple, and all buttons easily accessible for quick changesResponsiveness - Very responsive with commandsFlight Time - I have only flown in colder temperatures, but still was getting 8-10 minutes per charge

Speed 2 is nice speed 3 is crazy

As far as the fastest speed I was pretty impressed on how quick it is

After a few minutes, he was trying the faster speeds and doing flips

well brought 5 the last 2 seem to loose control and fly off.

This mini drone has good feel and control for indoor and outdoor flight depending on your speed settings

The remote control to fly the toy is a bit bulky and possibly could be too big for children’s hands

Really good for a beginner like myself and controls really easy to remember

It’s easy to fly once you get used to it, very steady flight control
