Review summary

Reviewers praise the drone’s value, beginner-friendliness, stable flight, and decent video quality when the app works. The dominant issue is the iOS app’s unreliable connection on iPhones and newer iOS versions, with many reports of needing workarounds (airplane mode, Wi‑Fi-only) and little timely developer support. Overall, the product is appealing, but iOS compatibility problems seriously limit usability.

Pros

Value for money and beginner-friendly design.
Easy to fly with stable performance for a beginner.
GPS features (Return-to-Home, Waypoints, Follow Me) work well when the app connects.
Video and image quality are good when the app functions.

Cons

iOS compatibility issues; the app often fails to connect on iPhone and newer iOS versions.
App connectivity to the drone/camera is unreliable or non-functional in many cases.
Require workarounds (airplane mode or only WiFi) to get the app to work, with inconsistent results.
Slow or no timely fixes/updates from Contixo for the iOS app.

2025-08-26	gh*****	This drone works great. I’ve been flying since the early days of quadcopters, and compared to those unstable models that could barely stay in the air, this one is night-and-day better. It’s stupid easy to use. Is it perfect? No. Would I hand it to a kid and say “have fun”? Also no—but you really shouldn’t do that with any drone. There are always variables in flight. I followed the instructions as written, and everything worked exactly as it should. The Return-to-Home function alone makes it worth buying, and the added features—waypoints, Follow Me, GPS tracking—work surprisingly well at this price point. I’ll admit I did a pretty haphazard job of calibration, but even so, the GPS functions still performed well!

2025-08-24	co*****	I bought this drone today, thought $135 was a steal considering it has a decent camera and it flies pretty good, however the app will not connect to the drone making it nothing more that a brick, it will not fly, it will not show me the camera it is really annoying cause now I have to return it. Fix the app
