The Drone

This drone perfectly combines user friendliness with a powerful (yet not overwhelming) flight experience. Plus, it comes standard with an HD front-facing camera!

For many, this will mean a perfect balance of power, functionality and ease of use that provides an extremely easy and enjoyable flying experience. It also comes with two, 2-cell Li-Po batteries to double your flight time!

There are really so many things to love about this consumer-friendly quadcopter. Let’s take a deeper look at the details of this a top-tier beginner drone!

Drone Body

As you can see, this drone is sleek yet functionally powerful. The body is made of sturdy ABS plastic that can withstand the hardest crashes, especially while learning. This allows you to have an enjoyable worry-free learning experience as you get the hang of flying your dragonfly!

There are also prop guards included that make your drone extra safe, especially when flying inside or around others. But, they’re optional – you can take them off and fly with even more freedom if you choose.

The HD 120° front-facing FPV camera is also flawlessly integrated into the body of the drone, meaning there are no messy external wires or added drag. This is normally only seen in more advanced drones, and really adds a nice touch to the look and functionality of the Dragonfly drone.

Being a great beginner drone is one of this drone’s claims to fame, but what else can this quad do?

Flight Performance

This drone design is perfect for any beginner, and it’s also paired with some killer functions!

One of the best features here is Altitude Hold, for easy hovering. If you’ve tried flying a drone, you know throttle control can be one of the hardest things to learn; either you end up not giving it enough for fear of flying away, or you give it to much and it inconveniently finds the closest tree branch.

Altitude Hold removes the learning curve, as it greatly assists in holding whatever altitude you set. This still allows you to control the altitude while keeping things simple for beginner flying and ultra-stable video.

Another great feature is the one-button takeoff and landing. This ensures you don’t overdo it on takeoff, resulting in an out-of-control start to your flight, as well as giving you the ability to land smoothly and gently every time – all at the push of a button.

Still want to take off or land manually or in an emergency? No problem! This drone also allows for manual motor start and stop, and auto-detects when it has reached original takeoff height and will turn off the motors while holding down the throttle.

Headless Mode is one of the best and, at times, underrated features of this drone. It means that, with the push of a button, your drone no longer responds to controls based on the position of the front of the drone. It instead uses your position relative to the drone to allow for easy control.

Remembering drone orientation is difficult for even more advanced pilots. This eliminates the need to be constantly keeping this in mind and makes the learning experience more enjoyable!

This feature has several other benefits, like allowing for advanced drone videos such as flyaway shots (see here for an example) or follow cams.

Finally, one of the most enjoyable ways to fly is when you use Headless Mode with your mobile device. This means you can fly with your phone with no need to heed direction, leading to some super simple and fun flying for all ages and flying abilities!

The Controller

One of the most overlooked parts of any drone package is the controller. As this is the part you are interacting with the most, we went to extra measures to be sure it was comfortable, well-made, good-looking and gives you easy access to all the features without being overwhelming.

Controller Functions

Some drones brag about advanced features, but often these often require intense skill to make them work.

With this package, you’ll be taking full advantage of all the features without thinking twice thanks to simple and intuitive. All buttons are labeled well and thoroughly explained in the manual: Headless Mode, auto landing and more are all easily operated and right at your fingertips.

Control App

The FPV app also boasts some amazingly advanced features that really adds to the overall value of this package. This app comes free with all FPV-capable UDI drones! You can check those out here. This includes tilt-to-fly, on-screen controls, Custom Route Mode, photo and video functions, FPV screen, photo viewer and all the functions found on your controller – plus more!

One feature worth highlighting is Custom Route Mode. This allows you to literally draw a route on your phone and the drone will follow the course right before your eyes!

 With this feature, the sky really is the limit for what you can do with your drone. Watch this video for more in-depth information.

The Camera

The camera is one of the coolest parts of this drone. While also being very easy to fly, you have the option to fly in FPV (first-person view) through your phone screen! This leads to some one-of-a-kind views and helps with framing the perfect picture or video!

The camera is full HD, perfect for sharing on social media and viewing on your phone or computer! The 120° angle camera makes sure you are capturing everything, and not leaving out the breathtaking views from the sky!

This is really a great feature as many beginner drones focus only on flight features, while this package gives you the best beginner features while also including a camera to let you soar into a full-fledged drone videographer!

To Sum Up…

Overall, this is the perfect drone for a beginner or near beginner-level pilot. It is truly intuitive with some great features that both beginners and advanced pilots alike will enjoy.

The drone build is aesthetically pleasing and sturdy. It houses a great HD camera for some unreal aerial footage and photos. And, best of all, it packs tons of features into a simple controller and app that will allow you to fly easily and enjoy the ride.

This is one of the best drones for a beginner and you won’t regret the exhilaration you feel zipping through the air, and the breathtaking footage that comes from soaring around with the Dragonfly.
