And it is easy to fly
I'm older than dirt and this was my first quadcopter,. I selected the CW4 because it had a lot of the features found in more expensive drones and I figured these features would make it easier to learn to fly. And it is easy to fly, stable and very forgiving in flight. My landings are about 50/50 crashes to safe landings, but the Cheerwing has proven to be pretty tough, I'm still on my original props. Everything works as advertised, altitude hold, headless mode and one button landing all add to making this a pleasurable drone to learn with. (I have not tried the camera). I would not fly this quad in winds over 5 mph to start with. It's a gas!
Update after ~40 flights. Still on first set of props, this is a tough quad. Camera is better than I expected. I've had it fly away on a few occasions, try to keep it close to you. Altitude hold makes learning to fly a quad sooo much easier. This is a terrific value.
I recently added two batteries that came with a charger that will recharge 5 batteries at once. The batteries fit in the CW4 and last as long or perhaps a bit longer than the original batteries, a good value.
