Holy Stone HS210T Drones for Kids, 2 IN1 MINI Indoor Drone with Land & Fly Mode, Four Posture Deformations RC Quadcopter with 3D Flip, Auto Hovering, Birthday Toy Gift for Boys and Girls

I bought this so I could fly around indoors and learn to fly a drone (I'm used to RC cars and trucks). It's not that hard to fly even though flying a drone for the first time is kinda tricky. But on the slow speed you can bounce off furniture and cabinets without causing any damage. The altitude hold works pretty well and overall, the drone is great for the price and size! If you want a learning drone or something to fly around indoors, this is a great choice! Pros: Comes with a cheat sheet attached to the controller showing what the buttons/knobs are etc. The manual is very good for this type of product. Also has a feature to turn off vertical launch and slide around the floor like a drift car which lets you learn controls that way too. Cons: Battery doesn't last a long time, but you get two of them. But what do you expect with batteries this small (they're tiny)? And it took about 60 minutes to charge both with the dual USB charger.

I'm no professional but this thing seems like a great "toy!" It's super easy to setup for its first flight and comes with a handy double lead charger cord so you can charge both batteries it comes with at the same time. My 10 year old loves the "land" function - it's really zippy when he uses it on the sidewalk. I, however, love flying it! It's so easy to maneuver and I've found it to be very durable (I crash it a lot.) As far as flight /playtime I have no complaints. We haven't run out of battery life during any of our outings yet. I think that the more we learn about the intricacies of the drone, the more we'll love it.

I picked up this drone mainly as a little toy for my 5-year-old, and while it’s impressive for the price, it comes with a few caveats worth knowing before you buy. First off, it does work as advertised—it flies, it hovers, and you can use it indoors. That said, controlling it takes some practice. The drone is very sensitive, which makes it tricky to fly smoothly, even for an adult. For a young child, it’s pretty much impossible to control in any meaningful way, so don’t expect this to be a “first drone” they can fly solo. One thing to keep in mind is how much the drone reacts to airflow. Even a ceiling fan or AC vent can send it drifting off course, which makes small indoor spaces even more challenging. You’ll want a larger, open area if you want any chance of flying it without constant crashes. Another minor annoyance: the propellers tend to pick up hair and threads from the floor very easily, and once they get stuck, you’ll need to stop and untangle them before flying again. Overall, I’d call this more of a novelty toy than a true beginner’s drone. It’s fun for a quick spin, but the limitations mean it doesn’t stay engaging for long. If you’re buying it for a young child, expect to be the one doing most of the flying. For the price, it’s not a bad little gadget, but I wouldn’t call it hours of fun. More of a “cool to try” toy than something you’ll keep coming back to.

For a simple drone is works quite well and is easy to operate.

You get what you pay for but a decent drone to play around with at a decent price but battery life is low

in the beginning: My kids love this it hovers on the floor like a car and flys stunt very well. it does need recharging but it works much better than other cheaper brands. for the price i think it is excellent now 2 months had past it turns on the blades spin but it wont lift up anymore it just leans forward instead of lifting up like it usually does. i expected it to work a little longer than just 2 months. for that reason i cant recommend this toy.

This is a fun little drone to play with. I got it just to fly around my house. My four year old grandson, can even fly it and it loves it. The only problem is the battery is a little hard to get on and off and on and off the charger. I did have to fix the trim when I first got it, but now it is easy to fly. It's a fun little toy.

This is a tiny mini drone, but super fun! I got it yesterday and have already been playing around with it for a while. The batteries don't take too long to charge and you get about 6-7 minutes of play time out of each battery (you get 2 in the pack). Be careful when putting in the battery and hold it by the side and not the top. The shell on top is thin and can break while securing the battery. This is a fun and nimble drone and having the "land" option to run it around is awesome. But you'll need smooth floors. I wouldn't use it outside personally. Overall it's a great buy!

Diese kleine (ca. 8,5x8,5 cm) und nur 25 g "schwere" Drohne ist ideal für Anfänger geeignet um das Fliegen mit einer Drohne zu lernen: Sie hält die Höhe stabil und lässt sich nach kurzem Üben sehr gut beherrschen da sie in der Grundeinstellung "Low" (nach dem Einschalten) auch bei Vollausschlag der Steuerknüppel nur relativ langsam fliegt. Sobald man den Bogen raushat, kann man die Geschwindigkeit auf "Medium" oder "High" stellen - dann ist sie durchaus flott unterwegs so dass es indoor schnell zu eng wird. Outdoor kommt sie allerdings auch bei nur wenig Wind schnell an ihre Grenzen; bei Windstille macht es jedoch grossen Spass, mit dem kleinen Teil durch die Gegend zu sausen. Die deutsche(!) Bedienungsanleitung erklärt alles wesentliche gut verständlich. Ein netter Gag sind die eingebauten Akrobatikmodi: Überschläge zur Seite, nach vorne oder hinten (Flips) gelingen mit zwei Knopfdrücken und faszinieren sicherlich die Zuschauer. Ausserdem kann sich die Drohne per Knopfdruck schnell um die Hochachse drehen oder automatisch Kreise fliegen. Der "Kopflos" (Headless) Modus vereinfacht zwar die Orientierung da die Drohne dann alle Seitwärtsbewegungen relativ zum Piloten ausführt - ich würde die Verwendung allerdings nicht empfehlen wenn man das Drohnenfliegen "richtig" lernen möchte. Wenn die Drohne mit einem Hindernis kollidiert führt das meist zum Absturz. Dann ist es sinnvoll, möglichst schnell den Not-Aus zu betätigen (beide Tasten oben an der Fernbedienung gleichzeitig drücken) um weiteres Unheil zu vermeiden. Die Flugzeit mit dem winzigen Akku ist erstaunlich lang (ca. 7 Minuten). Leider wird die Akkuwarnung (LEDs an der Drohne blinken) schon lange vorher aktiv. Geht die Akkuladung dann wirklich zur Neige fällt die Drohne nicht einfach runter sondern landet relativ sanft (und lässt sich dabei auch noch steuern!). Da drei Akkus mitgeliefert werden kann es danach sofort weitergehen. Geladen werden die Akkus mit dem beigefügten Ladegerät an einem USB-Anschluss z.B. einer Powerbank. Es können zwei Akkus gleichzeitig geladen werden. Diese Drohne ist KEIN reines Spielzeug. Die Anleitung empfiehlt ein Mindestalter von 14 Jahren. Unter Aufsicht eines Erwachsenen sind nach etwas Übung aber wohl auch jüngere Kinder in der Lage, die Drohne sicher zu beherrschen. Unabhängig davon müssen die gesetzlichen Regelungen zum Drohnenflug natürlich beachtet werden!

Den var mycket mindre än vad den var i videon vi såg. Men, den är otroligt uppskattad. Och såhär i efterhand är det ganska skönt att den är liten då den flygs mycket inomhus.

Got this for my 10 Yr old boy for Christmas. He was able to get used to the controls very quickly. Quick demo and he was away and I’d say pretty competent in less than and Hr of flying time. It’s better quality than most of the cheaper chineseum “toy” drones on offer and has some good features such as the ability to trim, flips, spins and three control rate settings. Trim works reasonably well but it still has a tendency to drift ever so slightly if you’re trying to get a perfect stationary hover. It’s best used indoors only as it will drift with wind and I’m not sure how well the signal will cope with bright sunlight and or longer distances. It’s also small (about size of the palm of an adult hand) so would be easy to get disoriented by the time you flew it any distance anyway. It’s robust in that it’s still working fine after a month of use (and some misuse!) at the hands of my 10yr old. There’s no camera which is good for our use area and honestly are mostly terrible on the smaller, cheaper starter drones anyway. It comes with three small Lipo batteries for the drone that can be swapped out for continuous flight time if required. They charge quickly with supplied usb dongle (charges two batteries concurrently). You do need to provide your own AA batteries for the controller (3 if I remember correctly). Main Lipo battery is fiddly to change as I think was reported before but is more of an inconvenience than a major issue. Overall 9/10 for what it is, it does what it’s meant to and does it pretty well. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy one again.

Sadly the cables broke, company (Holly Stone are wonderful in customer service, very helpful, big respect there) send replacement engines, but after installing them, drone was drifting. Before it broke it was great. Lasted 3 weeks- best 3 weeks ever though 😊

The HS210 drone is definitely worth all 5 stars I am very impressed with it and Holy Stone as a company, I can safely say that I believe this is the best mini/micro drone available. Initial thoughts: I was very impressed with the packaging I have inserted some pictures of what the HS210 comes with, the 3 batteries they provide in contrast to other drones offering 1 is very good as typically with these drones the battery runs out quickly so you find that you spend a lot of time charging the battery however, the fun keeps going with this drone! Flying: This drone has 3 different speeds the slowest of which is great to get used to flying drones for any beginner and I'd only recommend to fly this speed indoors and a gust of wind can easily shake it about. I accidentally got too close to the curtains at one point but the propeller guards stopped the drone from crashing and I was able to keep flying. After flying it indoors I took it outside for a little test as I believe it is still possible for mini drones like these to fly about outside even with some light winds, Using the second and third speed options allowed me to have full control of the drone it was even able to go against a few gusts of wind. Final thoughts: This little drone is amazing for the price listed, it comes with 3 batteries, 2 chargers, a spare set of propellers and a tool to take off the propellers. I fully recommend it for anyone from beginner to advanced as it is a fun little drone anybody will enjoy. I have attached the pictures of the packaging and the items provided as well as a quick video of the drone in full speed showing how fast this little machine can go!
