5.0 out of 5 stars Great drone for a beginner at a great price.
As a first-time drone owner, I couldn't have asked for a better experience than what I found with HS440. From the moment I took it out of the box, I was impressed by its sleek design and user-friendly interface. Setting it up was a breeze, thanks to the straightforward instructions provided.What truly sets this drone apart is its exceptional battery life. I was pleasantly surprised by how long I could fly it on a single charge, allowing me ample time to capture breathtaking aerial footage without worrying about running out of power mid-flight.Despite its affordable price tag, the HS440 doesn't compromise on quality. The built-in features make piloting a joy, even for beginners like me. Whether I'm taking sweeping landscape shots or filming action-packed adventures, this drone delivers smooth, professional-quality footage every time.Additionally, I appreciate the durability of this drone. It's survived a few accidental bumps and scrapes without any damage, further highlighting its reliability and resilience.Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. If you're in the market for a drone that combines ease of use, impressive battery life, and great value for money. That said, I am not looking for a more advanced model.
1.0 out of 5 stars Malfunction on third flight.
This product was very good. Easy to learn probably could have done with a bit more sensitivity. But third flight with no crashes I had a motor failure while flying. This resulted in the drone flying off and being irritreivable. Very dissapointed with this product as had own flown twice before. :(
5.0 out of 5 stars Beginners friendly drone
This is my first drone ever. The HS440 is very easy to manoeuvre and it is quite quiet and stable. It does not have GPS onboard, so drift is to be expected when it is hovering. But I have tried it in the park when there was no wind and it stayed at one place for quite a while before the wind eventually moved it. If flying indoors, the wind from the propeller will create air flow in the room and will move the drone, so constant adjustment is needed.The drone comes with two batteries, each lasts for about 15-20 minutes of play time, so quite a long flight time from two. Each takes a couple of hours to charge, but there are also two charging cables provided so both batteries can be charged at same time. Just need charging adaptor which is not supplied.The controller takes 3 AAA batteries to operate. It is intuitive and not cluttered so all functions are easy to find. The manual says that transmitter range is 100m when unobstructed.The manual is easy to follow. Remember to do pre-flight checks as specified in the manual before every flight. Especially setting up the gyro pre flight which must be done on flat surface.The drone is pretty well built and versatile for the price (around £80 when I bought it). I have crashed the drone many times to doors, walls, trees and other objects (not intentionally of course) when I learned to fly it in first few attempts. Also, it once dropped from about 3m height propeller first. So far, it is still flying well and I do not see a single scratch on it.4 sets of spare propellers are supplied with a small screwdriver for changing the propellers. Propellers are coded, so the right propeller must be installed on the right motor.In the UK, operator ID is needed (£10 per year at time of writing this review) since the drone has a camera onboard. I like the fact that the angle of the camera can be operated remotely to face forward or down (90 degree) and anything in between. It is one of the reasons I bought it. The quality of the camera is also very good for the price. I think it is 1080 HD. Also, there is a slot for micro SD card at the bottom of the drone to save the files or you can connect to your mobile phone via the app and save the photos/videos on the phone.The app is quite easy to use and very easy to pair via the droone wifi. The drone can also be controlled using your phone app once paired, which is handy, and there seems to be no lag between the app control and the drone, although I have not used it often. I prefer to use the transmitter/controller while my phone is only used to see what photos or videos I am taking.Overall I am very happy with it. It is an excellent drone in its class in my opinion.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good starter drone.
I knew this didn’t have any GPS, should have bought the more expensive model with it, difficult to control in the wind.
3.0 out of 5 stars Trim not working properly
On the plus side the camera quality is not bad and battery life was above expectation.For me the main issue is control, even within a range of 10-15m it can often fail to respond to input. Also the trim function fails to work so consequently it drifts constantly, requiring correctionIt was not the cheapest at this level, so these issues are really disappointing and impact the usability and enjoyment, unfortunately due to poor control I couldn’t recommend it to others (maybe mine was faulty?), but to be fair I don’t think these types of issues only occur on Holy stone drones, I guess to avoid these problems you need to invest in a drone at a higher price point as the entry level drones try to do everything but with significant trade-offs.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous learner drone
This is a lovely drone to start learning with quite easy to get the hang of once you get used to the controls which again are very easy to learn.You can be up and running and flying in no time 2 battery’s supplied with 2 usb charge cables and keys you know visibly when battery is charged light on usb cable changes from red to Green.Camera Quality is really good and will give you 1080p you can either save to your phone or get yourself a Tf/sd card 32gb the footage is really goodI would highly recommend this to anyone who hasn’t flown a drone before
