Pros & Cons
Pros
Very easy to setup and the app is user friendly. Relatively simple setup and straightforward instructions.
Drone is great for beginner's to learn on. Bought for 11 year old grandson. I think it's very decent for the price point.
Holystone includes a warranty on their drone so that if it does malfunction or happen to get lost because it disconnects depending on the circumstances they will offer a new drone for you. They stand behind their product.
Cons
The drone comes with only one battery, which in itself is a bit disappointing. The plastic propellers feel cheap and are extremely sensitive to wind. I returned the first one thinking it was defective, but the second one came and did the same thing.
With a convoluted user interface, the usability is very low. Moreover, navigating the hs440 drone is more of a chore than a delight. It's tricky and not at all intuitive.
