Everything that came in the box was what I expected. Setup was easy. Took about 20 min, including downloading the app to the iPhone. I bought it for my 6 year old son, so I didn’t want to spend a lot knowing it could all end with one crash. I couldn’t even believe that a box that size could get from China to the States for the purchase price alone. The only semi-issue is that it is shipped out of China by a Chinese shipping company. Somehow the shipping co. Doesn’t share data w Amazon like a stateside purchase does. The only date I got was at checkout, and it said that it would be delivered in 3 weeks.. To my surprise (and more importantly my sons!!) it showed at the door 5 business days later. The instructions are easy to follow, with little arbitrary Chinese translation. Flights are roughly 5 min per battery, and batteries take 30-45 min to charge. The controls are intuitive, my son had it down in about 6 tries. It’s a pretty awesome bang for the buck, and seems pretty rugged so far. It’s hit the ground surprisingly hard and survived. The crashes we’re definitely attributed to pilot error.. My boy just cuts the lift completely sometimes.. Till it bounces off the ground. The camera system works seamlessly with and old iPhone 5 we use for the camera screen & wifi app. It’s not streaming high definition for sure, but my boy is blown away that he can record flights and take pics of the neighborhood. You’re not gonna get gopro level footage, but it’s hardly a gopro camera. It’s definitely a worthwhile buy for the first time flyer. I can’t remember if there is a option to buy more batteries, but if there is, that’s the only change I’d make. We got 3, and with crashes and battery changes, you end up at around a half hour experience. It’s plenty for me, but not for a 6 year old.
