This is my second drone, my first one is HS140. HS175 is really better than HS140.

My son (8 years old) and I play it together to have fun.

Five-star features:
Light, dedicated design, foldable.
GPS auto return.
Beginner model for safe flying
Circle flying, route setting, and follow me mode for fun
Two batteries ( each one, 1h 30 min charging for about 20 min flying without propeller guard)
Control (1 h for a full charge, without buying extra batteries)
The case for easy package
Indoor flying
Propeller guard

Four-star features:
The quality of the photo is ok, but not like the video on the website.
Wind resistance
Calibrating the control (this might be due to lacking experience)

Tips:
1. You could found a lot of fun and useful videos of this drone on YouTube.
2. It will improve the quality and delay of video using the SD card.

Howdy folks cowboy here! if your looking to get an awesome beginner drone look no further..the hs175 really kicked it up a notch for me and my kiddos. As soon as I fired this bad girl up we had 40+ minutes of fly time with 2 batteries it comes with and a dang on case! Can u beleive that?? Totally awesome!! And Totally affordable! I would suggest this to anyone looking to begin or just

Great Buy and Gift

What I like about this drone is you can have it set up and flying within minutes . When the speed is set to “high”, the HS175 can be a very fast moving drone, but the drone becomes more difficult to control versus flying it in the “low” setting.
The controls are very, very, responsive which means only the slightest movement of the controls will have you moving towards your desired direction. It will take some getting used to, but it will come with practice.
I couldn’t get the home button to work and that’s even after reading the manual but I’m sure it is something I was doing wrong. That will perhaps be worth revisiting.
The app is amazing and easy to use. All in all it is a great drone with the ability to take high quality photos and videos. I really do love this drone, it’s features, and it’s high definition camera.

fancy and convenient to carry out

It flies smoothly and stably. It comes with a cool fancy case and two batteries, which allows me to fly it outside conveniently without rushing back home to charge frequently.

Very Nice Drone for Beginner and Intermediate

For the price, this is an excellent drone. It has GPS and that adds great features, as well as security to the pilot (I had another drone fly away in unexpected wind gusts and could never find it). This drone has a "Find Drone" feature in the app. It also has RTH (Return To Home), and each time I used this function, the drone returned to within a few feet of the original take-off position.

The drone gets good battery life (it comes with 2 batteries and charging cords), and the controller has a rechargeable battery built-in along with another charging cord for it. You will need to supply your own power supplies (USB for cord attachment).

The drone performed Follow-Me well. It also performed waypoint flights as expected (see the related video for one of my waypoint flights). Holy Stone provides a nice carrying case in which the drone and all related parts fit nicely (see the related photos)!

The video quality is nice for this price-range. The camera is not on a gamble; therefore, the video is jerky if there are wind gusts, but it is good quality, as advertised.

If you are in the market for a lower priced drone, this one is nice!

Holy Stone Customer Service is also very responsive and helpful!

Fun, Steady and Smooth Flying GPS Drone

Compact drones are perfect for the pilot that’s on the go, and the HS175 by Holy Stone is a great choice that fits in the palm of your hand. At just under 7 ounces, just charge the batteries, unfold the drone and it’s ready for high flying action right out of the box. The HS175 is delivered with two batteries for over 40 minutes of flying time, charging cables, two spare propellers, a chargeable remote, four propeller guards and a user manual, all of which fit neatly into a compact carrying case.
I found the easy, one touch take-off, smoothly levitates the drone to a flawless hover at about five feet to await additional commands. The HS175 readily responds to the transmitter commands to zoom through the air with your choice of two speed settings to go up, down, sideways or rotate and finally end your flight with a smooth, one touch button landing. I had fun soaring to high altitudes and exploring the great outdoors to take beautiful 2K video saved to my choice of smartphone or SD card.
Functions include follow me, orbit and tap to fly which allows you to set a path on your phone for the drone to follow. The pilot can control the camera to take photos or video and tilt the angle of the lens ranging from the horizon straight ahead, to 90 degrees straight down.
I was able to fly the HS175 with confidence, knowing that the built-in GPS safeguards the drone to Return-to-Home if it loses the remote signal or the battery becomes low on power.
The HS175 drone is a fantastic flyer that takes excellent pictures and video. It is an impressive value for the price. This drone is fun for all ages and will entertain both beginners and experienced pilots alike. The smoothness, steadiness and responsiveness of this drone easily earns it a 5 star rating.
