Contixo F15 Astro Mini Drone with 2.4" Screen Remote – Dual Camera, Live Video Display, Optical Flow Hover

We’ve been playing with this drone all day at love it, well except for our poor, sweet dog. It’s quick! It can just hover if that is what you want it to do. We would raise it off the table and lower on repeat, like it was bouncing. Totally fun! From 10 to 47, we all had a good time playing with it. The battery life lasted all day. The remote is easy to use. We will pick up an SD card for the camera feature. Totally recommend. Oh! Great price too!

Ok, this is honestly one of the coolest toys I have ever owned! This drone is definitely a great toy. It arrived in the box fully assembled including the camera and with some charge. The batteries and remote controller were in the box next to the drone. I went ahead and gave all 4 a full charge (1 drone, 1 remote control and 2 batteries) before really trying to do anything else with it. It took about 30 to 40 minutes for everything to get fully charged. The batteries attach and detach very easily. Everything is very light weight. The drone is about 4" by 4" and the controller is around the same size. Very easy for kids to grab and hold onto. The box includes a short usb-c charging cord and a full set of 4 extra propellers and an owners manual. The propellers are small so be careful and make sure no toddlers or babys get them in their mouths. Also, my cat was terrified of the drone for the buzzing noise it makes and because it flys. So be careful of pets. I did turn it on and then I realized the drone glows, lights up and flashes. It puts on a show for sure. Kind of a flourescent blue or purple color which makes sense because the box is a kind of bluish, purple shiny metallic shimmery color. Everything works! The camera does display on the 2.4" screen. The camera can take photos and record, but does not move by remote control. If you want a different camera angle, you need to manually tilt it up or down. The image display works, but honestly is not very good. I did take a few photos and recorded a video for a few seconds just to try it out. You do need a sd card (not included) for the camera to work and show video, etc. But the rest of the drone will work regardless. When I tried to transfer my video and photos to my gopro so I could then download the images to my phone, it didn't work. I wanted to attach photos for the review. Unfortunately I wasn't able to see any images except for what was displayed on the controller screen, but don't let that stop you from purchasing. There may be another way to accomplish this. Also, even though I am a grown man and I read the directions, I was having a hard time learning how to control it effectively. However with more time and some practice it would get easier. I did get it to lift off and fly around a little, but it's kinda like a video game so your kids should be fine. The box says suitable for ages 8 . They will need some help at first, but they will have a blast. Last thing, the manual recommends keeping it inside in a large open area and to not fly it outside. So make sure you have plenty of space. It's super fast. I think this would be great for kids as a starter drone. I had a lot of fun playing with this.

Cool little drone to start out with. not going to break the bank, and let's you know if you like flying. good toy for the younksters.

The shipping was by far the worst I’ve ever seen. The product is good but be prepared to wait over two weeks for it to arrive.

I’ll start by saying this was my second drone, so I didn’t really know what to expect going into it. I’m not a “tech guy” by any means—I just wanted something fun I could take out in the yard, maybe fly around a bit, and see what all the buzz was about. This little Contixo F15 Astro ended up being exactly that for me. What really caught my attention when I bought it was the controller with the built-in screen. I liked the idea of not needing my phone, and that turned out to be one of my favorite things about it. I just turn everything on, and within a minute or two I’m seeing what the drone sees. The first time I flew it, I was honestly a little nervous. I figured I’d crash it right away. But the takeoff button made it easy—it just lifted up and hovered there like it knew what it was doing better than I did. After a few minutes, I got more comfortable and started moving it around. Before long, I was flying it across the yard and even tried a couple of those flips (which my grandkids thought was the greatest thing ever). I’ve found myself taking it out more than I expected. Sometimes I’ll just go outside for a few minutes in the evening, send it up, and look around from above. Battery life is decent. I like that it comes with two batteries.

I would recommend this as FIRST TIME drone for practice and to learn how they work. It has a camera but NO sd card and will capture photos and video. It comes with 2 batteries lasting approximately 6 minutes each. I was disappointed that the online specs did not mention the SD card or I would have had one ready to use. On page 4 of the manual step 11 says 'Insert batteries into the charger using only the provided Contixo power supply'. There was no provided Contixo power supply. It is really fun to fly and controls nicely.

We used it for a few minutes and then one of the propeller blades stopped working. We tried replacing it, but the entire drone does not work well and it is not from use/crashing/falling. I cannot find a way to get a refund or replacement, either, which is frustrating since this was $70 and worked for only a few minutes.

it very small and sleek, very easy to use and You can see very clearly.

Can I just say wow! I should have started this inside. It took off to high that I couldn’t control it. Thankfully it had a camera on it. I knew it had landed in grass. Be aware if your new fly it inside or in an area with no trees or houses. I’m glad I found it. The battery life is great and I was surprised how small the drone was how far it flies. I was expecting it to be bigger but small is great for little kids. The flights are hard to control so be careful! It can crash quickly. I never could land it. Hopefully I figure it out soon so my 5 year old can fly it.

great picture quality my son actually could fly it in my house and in the bedroom and easily maneuver it and back out the door,with out crashing ..I have land and it would go quite far and it was able to video the horses.. they came in the whole package of extra blades.. and it's a beautiful colors that I and it's stealthy's got two batteries..
