had a problem tonight with zino. first take off it was very unstable. i did all the usual flight checks and tried again. this time it took off at high speed straight up then just went crazy. it disconnected from tx after about 3 seconds then just flew away. i want a replacement and im not happy at all. ailsa, ive sent you record files so please answer asap.
just to note, this was my first flight after a successful tx callibration that i did according to ailsa and her instructions.

Had similar issue last weekend.. Lucky my zino crashed into wall... You lost drone, i need to buy new propellers... But it is only Hubsan fault... Hubsan must release some fcking update asap or refund money for everyone.

This Hubsan Zino drone is a Joke
Hubsan should be ashamed with this drone
totally unreliable I still have not flown my Zino.
Come on Hubsan get your SHIT together.

Omg can you people calm down. It's a drone not your mother. Yes I've had issues too but I've adapted and planned for them and have got some great photos and videos over the last 2 months. They will release updates and they respond kindly to negative feedback. I don't think you are aware how complex these drones are and don't forget the price. Like others have said if you want a better drone, pay three times as much and get a mavic which btw also have flyaways and other issues.
Isldoors you haven't flown yours yet but you are making a comment??

Out of the 26 drones I own, I built 24 myself. And I think I can say, their hardware is not complex! And firmwares like Ardupilot, Betaflight iNAV or Butterflight for multicopters are also not a miracle... Even my Bicopter which applies SOATS technology (single oblique active tilting system) is not complex....

No I have not flown my Zino have not been able to do the firmware upgrade because I only have a Mac OS and I don't want to fly with the original firmware.

Erm.....
Yes the hardware is complex. You can't tell me that a microprocessor chip is not a complete marvel in engineering.
An IMU is just a mind blowing piece of electromechanical design. Just look at the complexity embedded in a GPS module and tell me that is not a complex piece of hardware
To an end user it's not complex because the end user doesn't have to design a few million gates on a silicon wafer.
All they do (in a multirotor) is connect a few parts together and bolt on some software. (which is in itself still moderately complex
)
The software you're talking about is open source code developed over years by thousands of developers world wide. I'd say it is a miracle. I really take my hat off to the developers that code this stuff.
Hubsan have a slight disadvantage here. they only have a handful of software an hardware developers, developing proprietary, private code.
Now DJI? Look at the size of their development team in comparison
