The Wingsland S6 doesn’t boast of any fancy smartphone level chipset in its PCB. However it still goes on par, if not even better than the ZeroTech Dobby in terms of features and specifications. The S6 also features a 13 MP f/2.2 camera which is capable of recording at 4K resolution at 30 fps. The drone also has the advantage of recording at 1080p at 60 fps with EIS and there’s even slow motion recording mode on the drone which I thought was cool and easy to use.
It houses a 1400mAh battery that can fly the drone for up to 10 minutes ( sometimes I get 15 minutes) and can be controlled by Android or iOS devices. It has a GPS+GLONASS positioning system for precise flying in outdoor and also has an IR, optical flow sensor positioning system, and sonar for indoor or poor GPS areas.
The drone has two flight modes — Beginner and Normal, along with two additional feature based flying modes like course lock and home point lock mode. It also does auto follow aka follow me, waypoint, point of interest, programmed flight, among others. I used my galaxy s6 to fly it and the the touch screen controls were easy to learn and use. There is a built in flight simulator for those beginners who want to learn the controls better and get practice without the worries of crashing your actual drone.The app itself will have to be downloaded manually from Wingsland's web page as it is not yet available in google play.
The S6 also has special modules or add-on accessories like Bomb Gun, Searchlight and Display Board that mount on to the drone and evolve it into more than just a selfie drone. Buyer beware as the replacemen chasis parts are not easy to find at the moment. I am still waiting got the DJI Mavic style remote control to be released for this and there isnt muchg info about its release.

Fun portable toy for $50. There is no follow me or gps, but it is easier to control than a plain drone with dual joysticks. Battery life depends greatly on the outside temperature, if you are flying it outside. Expect between 7 to 10 minutes of flying time. Colder temps reduce the flying time. Luckily spare batteries are plentiful and inexpensive. The battery connector and wire leads are naff and needs a redesign.

This is a fun little quad. It does fold up, and flies easily (easier with WiFi UFO app, free). I wouldn't say it's for someone who's never flown a quad, though. If you haven't, and still buy it, practice in a breeze free large area. It's not as 'forgiving' as other quads. A few hard landings and the struts will start coming apart (from the props hitting, no guards). This will cause the gears to mesh incorrectly, and tear itself up eventually. Bands of tape will help keep the struts together, and I'd recommend adding it before flying. Other then that it works well with my mobile. The video is 'ok', but not HD. I got some additional batteries (recommended), and get about 8 minutes from each.
Work great and the configuration jumpers are very handy. Lipo cutoff is a great feature, and includes a warning mode when voltage is low. Came with a helpful instruction sheet and red/black heat-shrink in case you solder on a new connector. As far as I can tell, the power switch does nothing (it's always on).
Great gadget. Ordered expecting prime delivery on 12/19/16, received 1-21-17. Not worth wait, would not have ordered with this lead time.
Pros:
Very tough, have crashed repeatedly with no damage. Very easy to set up and mate.
Cons:
Don't think you can fly right it right out of box.
Lots of delicate calibrations with very little instruction. Had to rely on you tube.
If any wind at all, don't try to fly.
Camera is weak not as advertised.
Still have not been able to hover in place
Great for learning. Get what you pay for.

This pocket drone is the coolest little drone that I own. It's so small and can fit anywhere. I mostly keep it in my backpack so that way I can fly it whenever I want. In the box you get the drone, extra parts, a battery, and a charger for the battery. The way you fly the drone is by using a app on your phone. I felt like it was easier to fly on my Galaxy S7 edge because it was a bigger screen. At first the Drone was a little hard to fly but once I got the hang of it it got easier. I can fly the drone and have full control over it. The controls on the app are easy to use and work just as they should. They stay connected to Drone throughout my entire flight time. I have not had any problems with this Drone at all. The only thing I don't like about the Drone is the flight time but with such a small battery it's to be expected. It lasts just as long as any other small toy drones which is about 5-6 minutes. The selfie camera works really good and the Drone is also capable of filming videos. All your pictures and videos are saved on the app.

Running this with a 20t motor on a 3s lipo. 3rd one I've bought and each is still working with no issues. Best brushed esc I have found!*Update- Over 2 years and I have these in every brushed rc I own. Awesome quality and by far the best for the money!
