4DRC V4 WIFI FPV Drone – WiFi live video FPV 4K/1080P HD Wide Angle Camera Foldable Altitude Hold Durable RC Quadcopter

This is my first drone and I am quite happy with it.
It took some patient to put tiny propeller screws but this is done only once so it is not a big deal.
Once the app is downloaded on the phone it guides you how to calibrate compass and GPS which is very helpful if you haven’t done it before.
By default T35 has a beginner mode which will stop you from going to far and losing it. This gives you some confidence as a beginner.
There is a button for automatic taking off, which will lift the drone at height about 1m and stay there and wait for your further instructions from thumb joysticks. I found this also very useful as a beginner because the first time you use it you don’t know how high and fast it will go if you push the joystick.
I found headless mode as a very good feature. Without that as a beginner I would crash the drone by now. This will match your directions with the drone, so you avoid mixing left and right like in normal mode.
There is a return to home button which will land your drone back to a starting point in case you get confused with controls. This will save you as a beginner also many times. This functions (return2home) is activated also when a battery level is too low so you don’t need to worry from drone falling down because of power loss. If you want to land your drone by your self when battery level is critical you can do so by checking the battery level from the phone app or from the lights on the drone — 2 indications will make sure you don’t miss this information.
Battery has a similar capacity of your phone, so to recharge it with the same charger it will take the same amount of time — about 4 hours in my case. If you use your laptop as a charger you will probably double the time needed. The flight duration lasts about 15 minutes, but experience of time is different when you are flying 🙂

I have attached one picture using this drone so you have an idea of the quality. This is the only reason I am giving 4 stars for this drone, otherwise this is a great choice. I was thinking to buy a small one first to practise but this design with so many safety features gave me exactly what I needed. As a beginner I haven’t utilised yet fully the capabilities of this drone and it will be challenging to switch off the beginner mode in some point.

I wanted a drone to patrol a little bit of bog land that I own not far from the house… sadly the drone was only able to fly the distance to the land but the picture would freeze after about 100m from the handset….
All in all it’s a great bit of kit for taking selfies or landscape vids and pics out on walk… flight time would be about 7mins each battery

This is my first drone I’ve bought, I was a bit uneasy when buying it as there wasn’t any reviews but I thought I’ll just buy it and risk it. I’m so glad I did this drone is excellent easy to set up, bit fiddly putting the propellers on as they have tiny screws but easy enough. Took it outside after downloading the app to my phone turned it on and synced it to my phone and controller easily. Calibrated the GPS and compass by using the instructions easily and took off. It flies so easily I still had it in beginners mode on first flight so I could get used to it, it limits the height to 20 meters and distance to about 30 meters but that was fine for first flight. Tested out the return to home feature that works a treat literally lands within a foot of where it takes off. The video it crystal clear and instant to your phone it doesn’t say in the item description but you can change the angle of the camera through a switch on the remote. I could see the battery was wearing down after around 15 minutes of flight so I thought I would keep flying and make sure the return to home feature worked when battery was low and once again returned to around a foot of take off spot. The battery to charge took around 4 hours which seems a bit excessive, that was using the supplied charging cable might try a different cable to charge next time and see if I can get the charging time down. It cannot do flips like a stunt drone but this type of drone isn’t designed for that kind if flight. The controller has a built in rechargeable lithium battery which can be charged up through the supplied cable. It doesn’t come with a charger but I think just about any USB phone charger will work. I haven’t used the GPS point to point feature yet so I cannot comment on that but looks promising. There’s also a vr feature through the app which isn’t mentioned in the item description which I haven’t used yet, not sure if you need to purchase the potensic vr glasses separately for that to work. I would highly recommend this drone as I found it easy to use, well made, has tons of features usually only on expensive drone, the app is very well designed and has loads of features. It doesn’t have to be connected to your phone but I think it’s well worth doing. Sorry if I’ve rambled a bit but I’m highly impressed with this drone even though I haven’t got anything to compare it to
