Amazing Drone for All Levels!

I had purchased a fairly cheap (under $100) drone about a year and a half ago with the intention of learning how to fly a drone and see if I liked it. I didn't. It was terrible. The thing never flew straight, always took its own directions and was all over the place. I basically never used after the first few attempts.However, after seeing this drone available on Woot and reading the reviews, I decided I would take my chance again and spend a little more money this time. Boy, what a difference it made. While I had some trouble figuring out the app and where to find what, once I did, it became really intuitive. The app is easy to navigate, and it works well with the controls.The first day I took it out flying I took it to my local park. I spend about a half hour just doing some of the basic things with the drone such as waypoint flights, follow me, and image tracking. Since it was my first time, I fumbled a bit with it and didnt have much success doing the things I wanted. I also dont think that I was calibrating the GPS correctly.I decided to read the manual again, thoroughly and watch some videos online, after that - piece of cake! I took it out on vacation with us this week and it has just been amazing! The stability of this drone is great. it hovers exactly where you want it to, the GPS tracking and following is spot on, and the range on this thing is phenomenal and I haven't even taken it to the max yet! The picture and video quality is stunning and everything is crystal clear. The drone is so much fun that my father in law who is a pilot and owns his own plane actually said he needed to get one now! He flew it for a bit last night and was able to understand the controls with great ease.If you are looking for a good base drone that has excellent range, photo quality and is all around fun, I highly recommend this drone!
