Pro's
- Huge 4S 14.8V 5500mah battery provides plenty of power and flight timefor long range, long endurance flying.
- One key automatic takeoff and landing. Very stable even on windy days.
- Large size helps improve stability and visibility. Can easily maintain visual site of this quadcopter at great range.
- Lots of power combined with an accurate GPS means that this is a stable windy day flier.
- Accurate GPS also enables accurate automatic return to home and automatic landing.
- Includes heading lock mode to assist in camera panning, or helping maintain orientation.
- Also includes fly around point mode (circle position) and panorama mode.
Con's
- Does not come with needed platform for mounting a gimbal. Will either need to purchase a suitable gimbal platform separately, or fabricate one of your own.
- Large heavy quadcopter. Definitely not for beginners, and definitely requires FAA registration
