SANROCK GD65A Mini Quadcopter - Red with 2 Batteries

The GD65A drone from Sanrock is like most drones these days and has about 7-8 minutes of flight time with one battery. This also depends on how hard you fly this as it has 3-speed modes (low 30%, medium 60%, and high 100%). Wind and other outside factors could also make the flight time go up or down from the 7-minute average. That’s about 14 total flight time with the two batteries that come with this, but you should rest the motors a couple of minutes in between to let them cool off. I would suggest for beginners to start in the lower modes until you get good enough to operate this in the high-speed mode.  

This does come with 2 batteries, 8 extra props (everyone needs), USB charging cable, a small screwdriver, and instruction in English.

This, like most drones today will do flips, has one key return, and headless mode. The 350 mAh Li-Po battery does take about 30 minutes to charge and the controller takes 2 AAA batteries that are not included. I like to use rechargeable batteries for these.

There are no LED lights on this for orientation and the only way to tell is by the props on the drone. The red ones are in front and the black ones are in the back. This makes it very hard to see and tell which way you are facing at a distance so I wouldn’t go too far away from you until you get good.

Overall, this is a very nice whoop style drone that flies very well inside with the altitude hold or headless mode and should be easy to fly for beginners but still be fun and challenging for better pilots
