There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It's tough. Really little. Quiet. Lots of fun. Easy to fly.
Altitude hold mode can't be turned off. I was hoping to learn throttle modulation to manually hold an altitude, and I can't with this one. It's ok though, I'm just being picky about how spartan it isn't.
This seems to be a good drone to learn on.
I am truly impressed with the customer service provided by Potensic! I have purchased and reviewed many products here on Amazon, but this has been by far the best experience ever!
Now to the A20 review:
It is fun to fly! Setting it up is easy, unlike other drones in this price range.
It actually has a small "on/off" button on the rear of the drone located above the plug terminal. While this might seem trivial, it is a very nice feature. Other drones in this price range have no on/off switch and automatically turn on when you plug in the battery cable. Having the switch, in my opinion, prevents you from constantly having to pull on the battery cable to turn the drone on or off.
The controller communicates with the drone quickly. That makes pairing and setup extremely simple. I seriously don't think it can get any easier than this!
If you are new to drones, my suggestion is to first fly the A20 in a large indoor place. The rear of the drone shines a small red light, front has a light green light.
In terms of flying, I found that it works quite well. The cool thing is that the round protectors surrounding the tiny proppelors protects it from most common impact damage. After a few landing/take-off practices I was able to land it on a small target every time!
Speaking of landing, there is a small button on the controller that gently and automatically lands the drone. If you are flying and start to panic (thinking it is about to crash), just press that button and it will land gently! While I used this button several rimes when I was first learning how to use the A20, I now land it well using only the joystick controllers.
In terms of battery life, it will last for around 5 to 6 minutes. While it would be nice to have the option of a spare battery, I'm ok with just charging it as it doesn't take very long to completely charge again.
I work with several students and have let them use the A20, some have never flown a drone before. Within only a few minutes they are flying the A20 and controlling it very well! Compared to other drones I let them use, they all preffer the A20 for its simplicity of use and its responsiveness. I am in the process of starting a drone club for middle school students, and I am considering purchasing a few more A20s. The kids love them, they are easy to use, durable and safe to fly indoors!
While I am very happy with the A20, I am even more impressed with the outstanding customer service provided by Potensic! I wish all other vendors on Amazon were as professional as Potensic!
The only challenging part is reading through the little booklet in calibrating the thing if something goes wrong. I like how it came with some spare blades. I don’t like how it’s super tiny and the battery compartment doesn’t close all the way. But it’s all good.
Overall, I think the price is right for what you get and I can definitely recommend this for kids and those adults who want to play with a drone casually. If you have any potential interest in a drone with a camera or doing any "intermediate" or "advanced" maneuvering, you will quickly tire of this drone.
I have two main criticisms for this drone.
1. The battery only lasts for around 6-7 minutes at best in my use case
2. The remote controller and/or onboard flight controller are poor at maintaining any direction (Z, Y, Z, and yaw mostly).
For the size of the drone, I can forgive the short flight time. The battery has to be small in order to keep weight down. However, the battery is always quite warm to the touch when removing it after a session to charge. Even if the batteries are rated for the high load that is put on them, I expect a short lifespan and to start seeing bloating at some point soon if I continue frequent use.
The flight control is my main issue. It will drift forward and back, left and right, up and down randomly. Using the remote controller to move in the X or Y axis often results in the altitude and yaw (rotation or direction the drone is pointing) changing too. No matter how much I mess with the initial calibration or dial in compensation when in flight, the moment any other input is used, the compensation goes right out the window and it starts drifting again. It is almost like the remote controller has joystick "drift" or no deadzone when resting in the center. This makes navigating this drone in any tight spot or obstacle quite a chore and requires constant correction.
Top reviews from other countries
* Small size, very portable
* Very agile
* Very durable
* Safer because of ducted fans
* Headlight is white and taillight is red which is very helpful to know orientation, my fav feature
* Generic LiPo batteries so easy to buy 3rd party batteries
* Comes with 3 LiPo which is great for extended fun time
Cons:
* Transmitter could have been better but can't complain for this price.
Utilizzabile anche da bambini piccoli (5 anni!)
Veloce, preciso, taratura facile.
Unica pecca: il meccanismo di ricarica della batteria, in quanto bisogna estrarla e sostituirla.
E' una buona cosa che venga fornito con 3 batterie, così mentre si ricarica la batteria "usata" si può anche utilizzare.. ma per semplicità avrei prefrito una batteria interna (quindi non estraibile) ed una ricarica via USB direttamente dal drone, magari con una batteria un po' più capiente (a discapito del peso ovviamente).
Anfängliche Verbindungsprobleme beim Einschalten haben sich als RTFM-Problem herausgestellt. Ja, es macht manchmal halt schon Sinn, die Bedienungsanleitung zu lesen - da sind ein paar Dinge bei dieser Drohne nicht selbsterklärend. Einige Rezensionen beklagen sich über diese Probleme...
Hier also nur kurz: Drohne einschalten, Fernbedienung einschalten, linker Hebel an der FB nach hinten bzw unten ziehen, fertig. Ohne den letzten, durchaus ungewöhnlichen Schritt keine Verbindung. Manche werden das unabsichtlich machen (halt einfach wild herumprobieren) und sich dann wundern, dass die Verbindung manchmal problemlos geht, dann wieder nicht. Ging mir nicht anders.
Zusatzfunktionen, wie die Einstellung von Anfänger - Mittel - Geübter, Kunstflugtricks (Rotation, Kreisbahn, Flips in alle Richtungen), sowie Starten und Laden auf Knopfdruck runden das Angebot noch bestens ab. Dass drei Akkus dabei sind ist im übrigen Gold wert. Viel mehr als 5-7 Minuten pro Akku sind nämlich nicht drinnen. Mehr habe ich aber auch nicht erwartet! Die Ladedauer mit dem mitgelieferte USB-Steckerladegerät ist mir etwas zu lang. Über 30 Minuten sind mir bei 5-7 Minuten Einsatz zu viel. Also selbst bei drei Akkus ist somit kein kontinuierlicher Spielspaß möglich (soll es natürlich auch nicht, laut Bedienungsanleitung ist den Motoren auch eine Abkühlphase zu gönnen. Ich lasse auch den Akkus eine Abkühlphase - sie werden es danken!) Achja, es sind LiPo-Akkus - die mögen es gar nicht, tiefentladen zu werden. Also nach der Akkuwarnung (LED blinken) rasch landen und abschalten, um die Akkus zu schonen. Auch das werden sie danken.
Noch als Tipp: Wenn die Drohne nicht korrekt fliegen will, mal die Rotoren kontrollieren, ob sie sich noch frei drehen, oder von Staub und/oder Haaren gebremst oder blockiert werden. Die Rotoren auch nicht zu stark aufdrücken. Kalibrieren kann auch nicht schaden.
Aufgefallen ist mir, dass nach einigen Flügen die Akkuklappe nicht mehr zuhält. Hier muss man die Rastefeder (also das gebogene Teil, das einrasten soll) etwas aufbiegen, dann rastet sie wieder ein und sie hält wieder geschlossen. Und wenn die Klappe offensteht, ist es auch kein Problem für den Flugbetrieb!
Achja. Hier fliegt ein 8-jähriger schon richtig gut damit. Unter 6 Jahre würde ich nicht gehen. Nach oben gibt's keine Begrenzung - ich garantiere Spaß bis ins hohe Alter! ;-)
Viel Vergnügen mit dem genialen und robusten Teil!
Pas cher, très solide, rapide a recharger,...
Il est possible d en utiliser plusieurs en même temps sans avoir d interférences.
Il est très maniable. Mes fils de 6 et 9 ans savent l utiliser sans l aide d un adulte
Il se recharge en 30 minutes. 2 batteries sont fournies avec le drone.
Je vous conseille d en acheter d'autres (trouvable sur Amazon ;). ) Afin de permettre à votre enfant de jouer longtemps sans avoir attendre la recherche de la batterie (5 minutes de jeu/30 minutes de recharge)
