Well at first I thought it was great. took off and she was solid on the spot. Then flew a few figure of 8s to check the basics over and then proceeded from there for a flight 240 metres away and I noticed it was beginning to bank to the left slightly so I stopped and hovered for a moment. I then proceeded to 118m in height and then decided to head for home. Well that was the issue as I couldn't loose any height at all as with throttle at the lowest it wasn't coming down but staying at the same height well if anything it climbed slightly so I switched on RTH!!!!!

Well the fun just got wild as she started to TB then the gimbal protection flashed on as she nearly flipped and as she was now flying AWAY I took control again only to find I could barely pitch forward and now had battery warnings. I did eventually loose height by mixture of runaway TB and then taking control again and eventually got back to myself. I then re calibrated compass, rest gps etc and it seemed ok though now if you pitch it forward it suddenly looks like it hits an invisible wall and lunges backwards whilst the throttle cuts briefly then returns to normal.

So nope Firmware update V 1.0.44 is a nope in my opinion

I've flown mine straight out of the box. NP
Flown with every update. NP
I really don't understand what's going on w/everyone's quad. Mine has been great from day one. AND, I've traveled from South Carolina to W.Va and flew it in both locations without doing a new compass calibration,and,at the W.Va location,it was in a rest stop on the Turnpike,with rebar in the concrete,close to a massive Steele Bridge.
Sumptin Ain't Rite!!!! Lol

Had another flight just now. Gps signal good this time with only 10 satellites. Flew great in strong breeze. I also don't have any of these problems. Some people are just unlucky who knows.

I have it for 3 days, the first fia was fine, only when going forward it turns left. The second day the battery charge and only marked 68% just connect it to the zino. On the third day, update the zino. the battery indicated 100% and the flight was very airy but it was great, I was able to change camera qualities and the flight was decent of time and I did not see it deviating when going forward. Update as indicated in the video, and the card previously formatted in the computer to fat32 and everything was great. In the second flight less than 100m lost the signal and returned to the point of takeoff, it did not happen again for the time being. They should correct in the next update, the barometer that refreshes faster to the motherboard and the yaw that is very fast.

I'm not an expert so take that into consideration. All seen post update.

1.) I get a good bit of yellow, pink, blue flashes in the video and on the screen. (Doesn't have anything to do with flying, but still an issue)

2.) Mine flies ok, but it "wanders" a good bit if I take my hands off the control. Ever so slightly back and forth (not jerky like I've seen other drones, it really is more of a "wander" almost like being swung back and forth on a string if that makes sense). Not the toilet bowl thing, I've seen that. This is a wander, maybe searching for its spot. And usually it'll spin very slowly in one direction or the other. (Very slowly). Its like it's not good at being confined to the spot you tell it to be. I'm assuming this is GPS hold?

3.) During the initial takeoff the app always says the transmitter and drone are farther apart than they really are. I'm literally 3-5' (ft) and it will say anywhere from 6-9 meters.

4.) Still loses altitude when going fast in any direction. It's done this since day one. I haven't crashed and one can account for this by being aware of it.

5.) On one occasion my RTH didn't seem to work, but there was a lot going on (too high, windy)

I'm not complaining, just making observations. These are my experiences. I'm still flying, and enjoying it very much. I have not crashed (yet), so for a newer flyer I'd say its stable enough but could be better;)

I'm also curious if the people who are having troubles are just Android users or if it's both Android and iOS. Just curious.
