5.0 out of 5 stars Very Easy to Fly and great Picture/Video Quality
The media could not be loaded. In my opinion, this is and excellent drone for beginners (as I am a beginner myself).This is actually the first drone I ever bought and I thought a lot about which one to get to get started. After reading a lot of reviews and descriptions, I decided to get this HS175D drone and I am really amazed.The easy of flying, the picture quality and the stability of the drone are really impressive.When I first opened the box I was impressed how well organized everything was. The drone and the remote fit nicely into the high quality case and seem well secured. The package also includes 2 batteries, spare blades with screw driver, as well as 3 charging cables (2 for the batteries, so you can charge them at the same time, and one for the remote.) Some reviewers noted that the USB plugs are a little thick as they contain the charging electronics and LED, so you may not fit both of them next to each other on a single power brick, and that it true, but I did not really find that a big problem as I have so many USB outlets and I think its better to separate them on different outlets, just for safety reasons.Once everything was charged, I was ready to try my first flight and set up outside. Following the instructions it was super easy to start the first flight. Calibrating the drone is a bit tricky without the phone attached, as you need to constantly look at the flashing lights, but it worked. For the next flight I used the attached phone app and that made the calibration steps super easy.The WIFI connection was very stable, my only problem at the beginning was that my phone tried to switch back to my home WIFI, but after a few tries it stayed connected.Ready to fly, I unlocked the rotors and pushed the launch button and it immediately lifted up and hovered very stable a few feet away from me. I was amazed how stable the hover was. Even though there were winds up to 6mph that day it stayed within 2 feet of the start position. Amazing.It took some getting used to the controls, as they are sensitive, but I figured it out quickly and was able to fly all over the lot with ease. Again, I never flew a drone before and on my first try I flew around for 10 minutes without any incident. I have also tried out the "follow me" and "waypoint" features and the worked great.Now about the Picture and Video quality, I think they are great for fun and recreation. I took several photos and one video (see attached) and I think the quality is great. I am not sure what resolution it really is (some people have commented about 4k vs lower resolutions) but I feel it looks great, even on our big TV. When you do video, the electronic image stabilization creates some interesting artifacts, like moving ground (especially if you fly fast), but once you hover in a stable position the video quality is high and stable.Overall I can say this is a great drone for beginners and as this is my very first drone, I am really impressed and look forward to more fun flights with my HS175D drone.
4.0 out of 5 stars Decent little cam drone!
This drone flies pretty well, but every now and then it'll start shifting left while hovering in one spot. Battery life is great at about 20 minutes, the controls are nice and responsive, the app could be better but it's definitely usable and most functions work reliably. The camera is good for the price, as well as the flight range. A good drone for starters for sure, It can take a beating too!
5.0 out of 5 stars Fun
I'd bought one of the $40 Holy Stone mini drones years back and absolutely loved that thing. It was intended for my boys but I ended up getting one for myself also. I can't remember what happened to it (probably was too rought with it), but I remembered Holy Stone brand very clearly in my head. Bolo recommended a different drone to me and it reminded me of the one from years back. I started searching through different drone reviews and came across this one. Right away I noticed a lot of similarities between the previous drone and this one (in a good way) so I decided to upgrade a bit. It was worth it. I am a beginner and had no real issues setting it up. The instructions are very thorough (in both the pamphlet and the app). A lot of controls are on both the remote and the phone which is a nice touch. The picture quality is decent, nothing incredible. The lack of image stabilization is the only drawback, but I knew that going into it. Some tips for those who just bought it:- When it says rotate the drone during the calibrations, make sure you'd doing full 360 degree rotations. I did half twists and couldn't get it to calibrate. That took the longest part of the setup process, but once I figured it out you can be flying in less than 2 minutes from hitting the "ON" button (It says you'll have to wait for the GPS to register but it did in in seconds.- Before purchasing I was trying to figure out if I would need an SD card to save the photos/videos. Couldn't find anything in the description or the reviews. The drone automatically saves any photos/videos to your phone immediately via the app. If you opt to get an SD card then it saves to both your phone and the SD card, but an SD is NOT required to get pictures/videos downloaded.-Your phone is in airplane mode while you're flying it. So you will not get calls/texts etc. It wasn't an issue for me, but I could see how that might be an issue for others if you're using both batteries.-Make sure you setup the GPS step. I tested it multiple times and it Returned to Home within 1 foot of where it took off multiple times. Truly impressive considering how windy it was and the distance from where it came from.Overall, this drone is an easy 5 stars. For the price you won't find any better. Obviously there are better drones, but you'll be paying more for that. I'm happy with this and, considering it's just something fun to play with, the pricepoint was right where I wanted it.
Great Starter Drone
This is my first drone, so no comparison. First off it came safely and securely packed in it's own case, with foam to protect it during shipment. Case is nice quality as it's made for the drone and each component specifically. Instructions are easy to read, QR code for the app, and link to video tutorials make learning to fly fairly easy. Although all I have done currently is hover and move around the yard (not great weather today) it is very responsive and easy to maneuver. I saw someone's post earlier about spare parts, but mine came with spare blades, screws and screw driver....so not sure if that's a new addition. Aside from that, I like the compact design, ease of instruction and use and look forward to some more challenging flights when the weather gets better!!! Great first drone for the cost.
Great for beginners
Great for beginners. Partner is very happy with it. Great quality for price.
At the top of its class within its price point, a value purchase for all us beginners
So here I am an amateur at best; learning to fly. Not even close to considering a purchase such as this at this time of year, I went through some pages here on Bolo, which ignited my interest in drones. I came across a landing pad for another type of drone.Excited and interested; I went to find out more and see if I could get this particular drone. Searching and searching I came across the holy stone, 175 RC remote control, drone.This peaked my interest, so I purchased this product. Now; pros, an all-around good drone for those who are looking to start out flying great flight time and great features. After sometime watching listening waiting and flying have come up with these conclusions.at its price point it does well. Its lightweight form factor makes it a little difficult to fly in my area. Stability at its price point it does well. It’s lightweight form factor makes it a little difficult to fly in my area. Stability cannot be achieved when buffed by wins greater than 35 km an hour.Drones in and around this price points are fairly good but don’t come close to the performance level seen by this so far. As someone who enjoys the outdoors, but cannot see that well I purchased a drone to experience things that well I wouldn’t be able to see you without Assistance otherwise. Getting a drone such as this could give me better views of the nature around my home environment. I look forward to Summers outside with this, but also fear the fact that at a lower price point, this may break down more frequently and with the rotation generated by the motors Friction may occur. I know if purchasing this drone I will not be able to put forth another investment of this size out-of-pocket for quite some time so the next purchase will be a drone with motors; these brushless motors are meant to reduce the impact and heat generated by these turning Blades and therefore prolonging the life of the drone for someone who is not totally blind, but limited with their eyesight. I also may consider my next drone having crash avoidance. Beginner budget. I don’t care what you call it. I want them to work for quite some time before having to retire .So enclosing, and after many typos, that I am not going to fix due to dictation issues I come up with this. I am happy with this of the holy stone 175 RC drone. I will enjoy the product and its features today, but keep in mind the following at its price point, and without the brushless motors, it’s may breakdown a lot quicker than some of the other higher end. Models, reception may be poor at times and return to home sometimes can send the unit of course by several feet. For this, I will put a tag on it , if it lands in deep grass. Only regret is not getting something with breathless motors. I am afraid of heat stress.
It's pretty decent
For $260 it's worth the price. The drones very easy to use, the apps also easy and fun. Over all, it's a great beginner drone.
Holy Stone. Great little drone
This was the first drone I ever bought. It’s lots of fun to fly. Great pictures. The batteries last for about 15 mins. I think that is really good flight time. The drone is small. It is under the weight limit so you do not need to have a license to fly. It responds to the commands from the controller quickly. The GPS is a great option to have. It helps the drone return to home.
