I have the Ghostdrone 2.0 4K Sport version without the goggles which I bought for $200 last Spring. It’s fine, it’s not going to give you the features and performance of the more expensive options obviously.
One negative is customer support is terrible.
I’m hoping to get either the new DJI Air, or Autel EVO this Spring. I’m leaning towards Autel mainly for there excellent customer support.
DJI Spark will still cost you more and doesn’t have 4K.
I’ve had this model for almost a year and since it’s my first and only drone, have nothing to compare it to but I’ve been happy with it. Fortunately, i haven’t had to use support thus far. Yes, you can lose video, or get some noise at greater distances, especially if the goggles charge is low. Get an extra battery too, for the drone. Takes good video, and has some good features, i believe.
I bought this model almost one year ago for about $450. The customer service has been very good imo - I needed a replacement after several crashes, and used one of my three warranty replacements with no problem.
The drone performs well and the video is fabulous from my experience. I’m still not used to using the VR headset for guidance, as I have several trees and other objects to keep an eye on in my yard, but it definitely works as advertised.
I haven’t taken it to a larger area since I haven’t yet registered it with the FAA, but I’m anxious to as soon as the weather warms up.
Worth the money? Yes. Is it the ultimate drone on the market? No.
I think of it as a fun toy that has given me hours of pleasure.
I have the one without the VR as well. Ghostdrone 2.0
Can not tell you how many times I try to fly it. It goes into launch failure 9 out of ten times.
Takes a while to fix on satellites. I turn it off, on. Do the compass calibration etc…
Many times, I charge the battery, do so many attempts to fly, no go and I put it back in the house. I deleted the app and reloaded as well. When you do this, it makes you go through the training flights again. Thought that would do it…nope. Will try again in the future. Not a woot issue at all. It is the product.
Honestly, I am not a big fan of drones bc I always hear about crash & burn or getting lost in the neighborhood, etc, but I am curious about the “see you next week.”
This drone WAS awesome. That said, beware. Customer support is horrible. There is a defect with my VR goggles which render the drone useless. Even though it is within warranty, been going back and forth with EHANG customer service for two months. They apparently are moving their office and will get back to me when they are “settled”. That’s been their response since early December.
