Super easy to fly! Camera plastic is very cheap. Upgraded camera is a battery hog!

I am writing this review to highlight what I liked and a couple of things I didn't. The drone arrived with fast as always free prime shipping. The box is proper and packaged securely. Assembly was simple even with instructions being in translated English. Pretty straight forward set up and calibration. I stayed in beginners mode for the first day to be safe. This is only my 2nd drone, and the first was a child toy that was junk. I was prepared for a few crashes while learning how to fly it. However, It was the exact opposite! This drone basicly flew itself. Easy take off, easy land! GPS and return home worked perfect! Very good beginner/hobby drone. I was very impressed with battery life and total control.
Now, I will say that my first crash was a bit upsetting. The drone went to "motor protection" mode and basically just fell from the sky with no control. I was pretty disappointed when I realized the camera had smashed to pieces... (not repairable) . I went back online and bought the upgrade version camera (1080p). Plug and play simple install.
The upgrade 1080p camera works well, but has been a battery hog and cuts flight time in half. There is no option to buy a replacement 720 camera or I would go back to it.
