a lot of haters in the comments i see. Mine works fine, no toilet bowling, nos ignal losses, just good response, steady flying and recording, landing works well, hovers in place just fine, and i got it for 240 on amazon

This is the first video I have seen with the HolyStone HS720R that didn't fail miserably!!

@IdahoQuadcopter 6 месяцев назад

I did get a toilet bowl landing! 🤣

@georgekelly1948 11 месяцев назад

Good overview of the drone, controller, and the app. Nice flight by a great pilot who deals with the quirks of this drone. Well done, Marcus.

@IdahoQuadcopter 11 месяцев назад

Quirks, that's a nice way to say it George. 😄

@George71964 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for showing the HS drone. I have been curious to see you test fly something other than DJI. I have only begun to watch your videos having seen 10 or so, so I may find other mfg. drones videos in your library. Thank you for sharing this test flight.

@IdahoQuadcopter 7 месяцев назад

Thank you! Oh yes, I fly many other brands. 🙂

@finnybflyin 11 месяцев назад

Hi Marcus! Geeze Louize! That landing was more like a vortex whirlpool! And it was lagging on course compensation from the wind. The video feed did help showcase the beautiful mountains. I'll agree that it's a great advanced beginner drone. Thanks Marcus! 👈🥸👉

@IdahoQuadcopter 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, that landing was something. It would have been quite disconcerting for a beginner.

@markwestcott3414 9 месяцев назад

Interesting review. Got one of these for Christmas that has extreme toilet bowl symptoms that got bigger and bigger until I finally had to 'emergency stop' the drone each time I flew it. I ran compass ang gyro calibration on each flight and it didn't help. It's too risky to fly this anywhere but wide open spaces. Support has been great. I'm sending it back. Not sure if I'm going to ask for a replacement or move on to something else.

@IdahoQuadcopter 9 месяцев назад

Yes, because I was in an open field and over soft grass I just let it crash land. It's not a good feeling when a drone has a mind of it's own.

@jaxturner7288 6 месяцев назад

I assume you had the required order number? Got mine as a gift and they can’t remember where they got it from so HS is acting like I’m out of luck. I haven’t even taken the plastic off the box yet but with it’s reputation I’m to nervous as a beginner to put something up it the air with it’s reputation and my lack of experience. I’d like to just exchange it for whatever reliable drone they have in stock even though I think this “r” was the most expensive model they have. Now I think I’m stuck with a paperweight.

@markwestcott3414 5 месяцев назад

@@jaxturner7288 Yes, my wife had kept the order info, so we were able to document the purchase. I ultimately moved on to a DJI Mini 4 Pro, and haven't looked back.

@IdahoQuadcopter 11 месяцев назад

@3bilray 8 месяцев назад

Your right that canceling the return home may have stopped the circling , however if you turn off gps it will also stop the circling. These HS drones all of a sudden go out of control and you must know how to stop it or the will crash. When they solve that problem I will buy another to experiment with

@IdahoQuadcopter 8 месяцев назад

In this case I knew the worst that would happen is that it would tumble in the soft grass. I didn't think about disabling GPS. Good call.

@nightlightabcd 6 месяцев назад

I have never had that happen with the HS360S or the HS200W.

@beehr4468 6 месяцев назад

Super new to drones - what are the pros and cons of the phone directly connected and WiFi to the controller ? Once again I’m super new this will be my 1st drone

@IdahoQuadcopter 6 месяцев назад

If your mobile device is connected directly to the controller, you typically get better range and FPV feed.

@FredHarvey-wp2qy 11 месяцев назад

I thought that the video quality was very good throughout the flight. The camera stabilization was right on. I did get a chuckle out of their terminology. The orbit distance was listed as its "semi-diameter" instead of radius, and it said its GPS signal was "week" Other than that nit picking, I enjoyed your post! It is nice to get a good review like your's.

@IdahoQuadcopter 11 месяцев назад

True, I often see that on these drones. Some thing are lost in translation. 😄 Thank you!

@MrRaymond1021 11 месяцев назад

I think it's a great looking drone. The video as far as colors looks good. The horizon looks a little round fish eye like you mentioned. That controller is too small. I think I would have problems holding that little control. All in all, it's not that bad of a drone. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍

Considering this drone retails for $399 on Amazon, before discounts and coupon codes, which come and go. it is very underwhelming at that price. I think you could do better at around the same price. Great testing Marcus, I think you presented things in a way that will let people decide for themselves if this is right drone for them. Thanks for sharing.
