Insights from Holy Stone users (Drone for Fun)

BK246: "With the HS720E, the benefits - aside from how much fun it is to fly - are the absolutely stunning videos and still photos that I've been able to take with each flight." 

Amazon Customer: "The kids already have ideas of pics and video locations they want shots from and even the wife wants video of this thing following us in tracking mode on the quad. ... Our family will get years of unique memories recorded on this machine." 

Travis Burgemeister:"I take this drone everywhere I go and fly it all the time very fun."

Brandon Booker: "i went near water videoing ducks"

Mr. E: "I recently retired and after watching some drone video's on YouTube, I decided to buy one. I have never owned or operated any RC vehicle in my life (I'm over 60). After some online shopping I settled on the HS 175D as a starter. My first flight was short and ended in a dirt crash. My second flight was at a park and went beautifully. I had a ton of fun and can't wait to get it back into the air. I'm thinking of suggesting this to a couple of retired former coworkers so we can meet at the park and have some races. That should keep us out of trouble and out of our wives hair."

Gregg Fastring: "I just want to enjoy flying around & capturing images from unique higher perspectives. This model is an absolute pleasure to fly & it captures the images I want with ease!"

Shannon:"I like that the drone is easy to fly and have fun with my grandson!"

bordar024: "The 3 speeds are nice. Beginners can start out low and work up. Advanced flyers have options. I usually use 1 for inside, precise control, 2 is good for both outside and in and 3 is fast for outdoor racing. I bought 2 for myself and 3 for friends."

Blake Cutrell: "My kids and I have lived playing with this drone, it is very accurate for the size and price and flies quite well."

W. Johnson:"So I just went to a family reunion and there's a ton of kids and adults there. I bought a bunch of these hoping people would use it when we get racism and play with them a lot even with the kids slamming them in the walls."

marinfrs: "If you’re looking for a drone to just a goof around inside the house, this one is perfect."

LeeAnne Valentine: "I absolutely loved it! It was kind of like playing a video game, but in real life."

Paddy Wagstaff: "Enjoy flying with my grandson. We use it to scout our farm land for animals."

Geoffrey A Bernard: "This drone got me started in the recreation"

Dawn: "Hubby loves his new toy. Had to get daughter to get it going after we tried. It's nice and the case is as well."

Gtibuildingsolutions: "I use this product for recreation basically teaching my grandkids how to fly drones"

Alexander: "I just like to zip around the yard with it and do some flybys, this would be perfect for a park flyer too!"

gerald c crowell: "At 71, I still felt the excitement of something new and different as well as the challenge of keeping the drone in flight and not in the woods."

Chuong-Thao: "We have a blast flying indoor, even my dogs entertained by this mini drone."
