Save your money and buy a DJI Spark

I bought this as a low cost and thus, low risk trainer for a family member who is interested in learning to fly. I have several drones (DJI Mavic 2 pro, a DJI Spark, an older Walkera Tali and a Yuneec Q500 that, because of their cost, were rejected as trainers. I once bought a Hubsan X4 Desire and felt that, for the money, it flew pretty well with reasonably predictable handling. I expected this X4 AIR, which cost nearly twice as much, to fly at least as well, if not better. NOPE. The only advantage I can see is longer flight time, due to the larger battery. The touted brushless motors on the X4 AIR don't seem to give it any better speed and the heavier battery make it a little harder to get off the ground, though that can be gotten used to. I think my main two gripes are; 1) The drift in GPS mode - even with 10 satellites and no wind this thing will hover fine for several minutes and then just start drifting and won't stop until YOU correct it. The radio alerts you if it loses GPS but does not show lost signal in these cases. And 2) No good to fly the X4 AIR at night. All four lights on this thing strobe, with a quick blink every few seconds. Its very easy to lose orientation of this thing at anything but very close distance because the blinking is slow enough, and the drift is bad enough to get away from you quickly. Even the cheaper X4 Desire has constant-on lighting and is easy to fly at night. So, it looks like i will use the old X4 Desire as the training drone, and I guess I'll use this thing as.... i don't know.... Do yourself a favor, save a bit more money and get a DJI Spark. There's just no comparison, different leagues. It's about twice as much as the X4 AIR, maybe a little more, but SO worth it

Solid buy for entry level users.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video. One of the best if not the best drones under $200 especially due to using 5.8ghz FPV and including lcd panel for it. No phone and crappy wifi FPV!!! Easy to fly, long flight time, very quiet, well built, and cool looking. Camera is better than I expected even without stabilization. Lots of accessories, replacement parts, and support info on the web available if needed. Batteries are inexpensive. Only thing I recommend right away is replacing the patch antenna with an upgrade if you want to really enjoy it's long distance capabilities. Highly recommend.

very easy to fly

This was my second drone, the first one was more of a pain in the *** to fly because you had to change batteries every 7 or 8 min. this one I get 18 to 23 depending on the conditions and what I'm doing. Let me first say I am very new to flying drones and like I said the first one was not fun to fly. I sent it back after a couple days of frustration. I did more research this time and wanted to stay under $200 and kept coming back to the HUBSAN H501s x4 mainly because of the battery life because when you look on line and start comparing they all seem pretty much the same. I decided to try the HUBSAN H501s x4 got it about 2 weeks ago and have been having a ball with it. It is so easy to fly and so stable. My son has had a drone before and is really good at flying tried it and really liked it also. I wouldn't say he is an expert but a lot better than me, he made the drone do things I hope to be able to do someday and he was very impressed. All said and done if your a beginner or much more experienced flyer, this drone will give you a lot of fun flying and the price point is really good too. Would I recommend it, yes absolutely, battery life is +/- 20 min, very easy to learn on and fly, very stable, very versatile and very fast too. My 2 cents, happy flying!

I wanted to like it....not happy

I watched many Youtube reviews and was very excited to purchase this. On one hand the idea of this drone was great but seems like Hubsan didn't quite deliver. So many reviewers said the 501ss is an amazing drone with 5.8 ghz transmitter with an actual FPV camera and monitor built into the remote. I will say the remote looks great, I like quite a bit actually it comes with decent antennas for both the 2.4 and 5.8. Battery compartment stinks, would have been nice to actually have a built in latch, instead of the really small screw that holds it closed. Who wants to mess around with a screw that will probably get lost easily, ended up using tape. The drone itself looks like a MJX bugs 2 body style. It has brushless motors, but something isn't working right with mine. Seemed like one of the motors was twitching while the drone was hovering and that's not even the worst part. After the calibration of the auto compass, which supposedly completed the process, not much info regarding that and the manual is terrible, the drone lifted off in GPS mode with full satellites and started "twitching' strangely. I had at about 15ft off the ground with my hands off the sticks and it was doing some weird twitchy behavior and started to rotate like it was caught a small vortex. I immediately landed and restarted the drone/transmitter to recalibrate the compass. I had full satellites, compass apparently "auto" calibrated and liftoff again. At about 15 to 20 ft same twitchy behavior and it started to vortex/toilet bowel around so I regained control with the sticks and flew it around a bit and it seemed to respond to the transmitter ok but the second I let it hover a bit it would start toilet bowling around only faster this time. So I tried to land it only the transmitter stopped responding suddenly and the 501ss was toilet bowling around completely out of control and then shot off like rocket somewhere and disappeared never to be seen again. UGH, I never did find it maybe it tried to go back to Hubsan HQ I don't know. I spent a couple hours looking for it but no luck it...just...flew away to be free or something. I still have the transmitter that's kind of neat I guess. Normally if something wasn't working right I would do an amazon return and all would be well. Nope, can't even do that since I can't find the drone to even return it. Maybe one of the motors malfunctioned? no way to find out either way I guess. All the reviews on YouTube were pretty good so maybe it was a shot of bad luck. I can't recommend the 501ss since I clearly had a terrible experience with it but who knows maybe it's an awesome drone.
