(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } All in all not a bad little drone. This F198 drone is a foldable, beginners drone. Equipped with a 720p HD camera and a 90° adjustable lens. For the price and build quality I would judge it more as a good quality toy rather than a serious drone. It offers features like WiFi app control, 3D flips, auto hold, optical flow positioning, and waypoint flight. Cheap to buy and it even includes a professional looking carrying case for portability.Pros:User-Friendly: Designed for beginners, with features like one-key takeoff/landing and auto-hover for stable flight.Portability: Foldable design and lightweight build make it easy to transport.Dual Camera Setup: Allows switching between front and bottom cameras for varied perspectives.Gesture Control: Supports gesture-based photo and video capture.Value for Money: Affordable price point for a drone with multiple features.Cons:Camera Quality: The 720p resolution isn't great.Wind Sensitivity: Lightweight design can lead to instability in windier conditions.Battery Life: Flight time is relatively short; additional batteries may be necessary for extended use.To summarise, I feel that the F198 Drone is a suitable entry-level drone for those new to drone flying. It offers a range of features at an accessible price. Good for letting you practice before spending more money on expensive professional drones.

I was very surprised when I received the product. It charges quickly. I have tried it both indoors and outdoors. The pixels are very good, it flies very steadily and is easy to operate.

3.0 out of 5 stars Only 1 camera

Out of the box experience is good, however this is advertised as having two cameras, but it only has one. 3 stars, but I may revise once I’ve used it.

The media could not be loaded. An amazing gift! We bought this for our son for Christmas, it’s been a few months now, he loves flying it! He had a much bigger drone of the same kind before, but was not very steady. I’m glad we bought this one for him, it flies for a solid 20 minutes and the battery is still going sometimes. Very good value for money considering we bought much more expensive ones yet didn’t work as well. Easy to control. It comes with a fitted pouch, the size of the drone is slightly bigger than my hand, makes it very easy if you want to take it on a day out! My son is 10 and he’s able to do tricks with it. Highly recommended.

First drone for me so took a little bit of practice to learn to fly accurately, I can confirm after ,5, crashes including in a tree that it is very durable, comes with spare propellers and a controller that requires AA batteries, also a wire for charging the drone battery. Would like to find spares for this, is there a website? Propeller guards are what I'm looking for that will fit this.
