This is my fourth drone from Holy Stone. I have found that the customer service I receive from HS goes over and above every time I deal with them, and that is huge to me as I am relatively new to this hobby and, with me, crashes are a distinct possibility. The equipment: You get the HS110D drone with modular battery (1000 aAh LiPo) and HD video camera, USB charging cable, remote (2.4 GHz, 4 x A batteries not included) with a phone holder attachment, a 4 Gb micro SD card and USB reader, 2 spare prop guards, 2 spare light covers, 4 spare propellers, 2 spare landing guards, tiny screwdriver and spare screws and a pocket notebook with pen. The remote: I prefer rubberized remotes so I was a bit disappointed that this was not rubberized. That said, the rest on the remote was spot on. It is larger, for bigger hands, and ergonomically pleasing. The large power button is centered and stays lit green as long as it is on. The trim buttons are easily within reach and smartly set up. There are dedicated buttons for initiating flips, taking pictures & video, starting & landing and speed increase and decrease. It has a headless mode (which I don’t use) but the nicest feature is a back lit, colored status panel showing, among other things, your speed level (1-4), if headless mode is engaged and if the camera is activated—a good thing for a guy that occasionally forgets to turn his off! Finally, it has an attachment to hold your cell phone for first person viewing (FPV). I had never tried this before, so it was totally new to me (more about this later in the review). Syncing: The syncing procedure is simpler than any of my other drones—left stick up then down and hit the “Re-Sync” button. A beep notifies that the sync has been successful. I liked the integration of a re-sync button for the sheer simplicity. Far better than having to manipulate joysticks this way and that. The drone: It is medium-sized—about 15” diagonal from prop guard to prop guard. Since it is only 5.1 ounces, it does not need to be registered with the FAA. It comes with a modular battery and affixed video camera on the underside. Two things that are nice additions at the outset…1) the larger drone power button. I have medium-to-large hands but I really have gotten sick and tired of trying to turn the quad-copter on using these wretchedly minuscule dip switches. I truly like that this is a good-sized, true button. 2) The modular battery is a welcome change from the smaller, wire plug-in batteries from a couple of my other drones. This is a much more positive connection! That said, I now place electrical tape across mine because I crashed it into a neighbor’s house once and the battery popped out. It needed a bit of a better retention mechanism but the tape has worked fine. Finally, a word on the lights. I find them to be far more useful than other drones and not just because they are larger (and thus easier to see from distance). When they are flashing blue, that is the signal she is ready to fly. They are solid blue (in front) and white (in back) while flying and I found that very helpful for depth perception, especially when flying straight out and in. When the drone is downed or needs to be re-synced, it flashes red—something I was very thankful for when it went down in a grove of trees as it made locating it in the dusk so much easier. Battery life: I kept a record of how long I got from a fully charged battery. It ranged from 9: 19 – 12: 06 with the average being just over 10 minutes. Holy Stone says that the battery takes 2 hours (120 min) to charge. There is a light on the drone that remains on so you can tell how long it takes to charge. I have never found it taking longer than 96 minutes to charge. Flight: This is a very easy flyer. The controls are well laid out, the power is adequate to cut through lesser winds, especially if you get the speed up to level 3 or 4. This quad is better than the F181c at dealing with winds. Max range is 400 feet. Camera: This is where the HS110D truly shines. In many ways it is like the F181c in terms of size and handling—the 181c offers slightly tighter turning but the 110D more speed. But where it truly excels is the camera. The HD video camera (1280 x 720p; 120 degree wide angle) is takes fantastic pics and videos, the quality was sharp. I found the free Holy Stone app very simple to install, set up and use. The pics and vids are stored both on the micro SD card (4 Gb and comes with a USB reader) and your phone (via the app). You can take pics & videos both from the remote and your cell. I also wish I would have seen that there is an emergency power off of the drone on the app before I crashed it. Like I said previously, I have never used FPV to pilot a drone but it was a whole new world. It not only added a far greater ability to set up your pictures and videos but just seeing from that height was astounding. Loved that. Final thoughts: Great drone. Would have liked a rubberized remote and a better retention in the battery compartment but these are minor issues. There are a lot of wonderful features on this quad but the thing that steals the show is the HD video cam and the ability to fly FPV. It was a very enjoyable and responsive flyer. That, coupled with the receptive Holy Stone customer service, I highly recommend this drone for the novice and intermediate alike. Happy flying!

I purchased the Holy Stone HS110D as a beginner practice drone, and overall I’m very happy with it for the price point. If you go into this drone with realistic expectations, it’s actually a very solid starter drone and a great way to learn piloting skills before moving on to more expensive GPS-assisted drones. First, the positives: The controller is comfortable to hold and surprisingly well designed for a budget drone. The built-in display is very useful and shows important information like speed mode, battery status, and whether you’re in headless mode or regular flight mode. The controls are responsive, and once you get used to the drone, it flies fairly easily. One thing new pilots should understand is that this drone does require trimming and gyro calibration to reduce drifting. Since there’s no GPS stabilization, you are truly flying manually. In my opinion, that’s actually a good thing for learning real piloting skills because you can’t rely on the drone to save itself. The drone does include two batteries, which is definitely appreciated. However, one downside is that the batteries charge while installed inside the drone itself, similar to some DJI drones like the Mini 4K. Charging takes roughly two hours per battery for about 15 minutes of flight time each. A dedicated charging hub is not included in the package, which means your drone can end up tied up charging most of the day. Holy Stone does sell a charging hub separately on their website, and honestly, I would strongly recommend picking one up if you plan on flying often. One thing to note is that while the drone advertises a 1080p camera, the real-world video quality is more comparable to 720p. That said, for a drone in this price range, the camera still performs surprisingly well. Compared to many of the very cheap drones sold on sites like Temu or other bargain marketplaces, the HS110D’s camera quality is noticeably better and produces cleaner, more usable footage. One feature I do appreciate is that the camera module itself is removable and available separately for purchase directly from Holy Stone’s website. That’s actually a nice design choice for beginners, since cameras are one of the easiest parts to damage during crashes. Instead of replacing the entire drone, you can simply replace the camera if needed. Now for the downsides: The propeller guards are probably the weakest part of the design. They’re somewhat difficult to install securely, yet incredibly easy to knock loose during a bump or crash. Worse, when they pop off, they often land nowhere near the drone itself, which can turn into a scavenger hunt trying to find them. Another thing to watch out for is that after re-syncing or recalibrating the gyro, the drone automatically resets itself to Speed 2. That’s fine outdoors, but indoors Speed 2 can feel very fast and twitchy. If you plan to fly inside, always double-check and switch it back to Speed 1 before takeoff. Also, because the drone is extremely lightweight, wind affects it quite a bit. Even a mild breeze can cause noticeable drifting. I strongly recommend flying on calm days, especially if you’re still learning. Overall, though, this is a great beginner drone for the money. It teaches you genuine control skills because there’s no GPS assist doing the work for you. You learn orientation, throttle control, trimming, and manual flight the old-fashioned way. That experience becomes valuable later if you decide to upgrade to more advanced drones. One final tip: keep an eye on Amazon pricing because this drone’s price fluctuates often. If you catch it during a sale, it becomes an even better value. Note that the strobes that appear in the review video are NOT part of this drones package and must be purchased separately. Overall, for beginners wanting an affordable practice drone without risking a much more expensive aircraft, I definitely recommend the HS110D.

Great product recommending.. worth for price

I ordered 2 drones for my kids. We just opened one till this moment as the other one will open it after my little one back from the school. Unfortunately the one we opened just spin around but not fly and I contacted the customer services at their WhatsApp contact number and they were very kind and helpful. They send me a lot of instructions and videos try to find out what is the problem and after that the offering a brand new drone to replace the damaged one. They said it will be delivered in 3 to 6 business days. Which is fair enough to know that you didn’t wait your money. And after my son cried a lot he is very happy and satisfied now.🥰
