My Surprising Journey into Drone Piloting: A Review for Beginners
This past Christmas, I decided to give my family drones, spending almost three times more for those gifts than for my own recent drone purchase. While they were well-received, I personally didn't have a drone and, frankly, was a bit wary of flying one myself.However, after some thought, I decided to take the plunge and buy [Optional: Insert Drone Model Name Here, e.g., "this new drone," or "the [Brand Name] Mini"] for myself. At my age, in my sixties, I fully expected to immediately crash it and perhaps feel like I'd wasted my money.To my absolute delight, I was completely wrong! From the moment I powered it on, the controls proved to be incredibly intuitive. Even for a total novice like myself, I found myself getting the hang of it much quicker than anticipated. The anxiety of immediate crashes quickly disappeared as I realized how responsive and forgiving the drone was.Furthermore, the accompanying app connected to my phone seamlessly and quickly, which was a refreshing change from past tech experiences. This swift connection allowed me to immediately view the photos and videos I was capturing. The quality of the imagery, especially for the price point, was truly impressive.This drone has been a truly great buy. It's proven that you don't need to spend a fortune to get a capable and enjoyable drone, especially if you're just starting out or looking for something user-friendly. For anyone, particularly those who might be hesitant due to a lack of experience or concerns about complexity, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this drone a try. It certainly changed my perspective on drone flying.

Perfect first drone!
As someone who'd never touched a drone before, I was honestly worried I'd crash this thing within minutes. Boy was I wrong! The X61 is incredibly beginner-friendly - the one-key takeoff feature had me flying smoothly right out of the box.The app connected to my phone super easily, and watching the live video feed while flying felt like magic. The camera quality is surprisingly good for the price, and I love that it comes with two batteries so I can fly longer. The carrying case is a nice touch too.What really impressed me was how stable it flies - even when I panicked and let go of the controls, it just hovered there waiting for me. The propeller guards definitely saved me from a few wall encounters while I was learning!Great value for a starter drone. I'm already planning aerial shots for my next vacation. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to dip their toes into the drone world without breaking the bank.

Impressive Little Drone with Big Features!
I bought the X61 drone as a gift for my son, and it’s honestly blown us both away! From the moment we opened the box, setup was incredibly simple—even for complete beginners. The one-key take off/landing is a huge confidence booster, and the altitude hold keeps things steady, which is especially helpful for kids and first-time flyers.The 1080P camera delivers crisp and clear footage, and the FPV feature makes you feel like you're right there flying. The foldable design is perfect for travel or tossing in a backpack. And don’t let the size fool you—this little guy can *move!* The 3 speed settings, 3D flips, and trajectory flight make it so much fun to fly. Gravity control is a cool bonus that keeps things interesting.Perfect for boys and girls alike—it's an awesome blend of fun, function, and affordability. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore the skies without breaking the bank!

Easy to use Drone in the winds around Colorado Springs!!
We were visiting some friends in Colorado Springs and wanted a drone for some images of the area. Looked around for an inexpensive drone that the kids could use and came across this one. We were pleasantly surprised at all the features, ease of use and the battery life on this drone.It was easy to maneuver, once you were able to get a handle on the controls and did fairly well against the wind. In mild to moderate wind, it can maintain a steady position and you can capture all the images needed. Would definitely recommend for anyone seeking an affordable drone for first time use.

A good basic drone for a novice.
I have never used a drone before, so I am a complete novice. The size and the design are excellent, in my opinion, for someone who has never used a drone before. The ability to use the app on my phone and the controls either on the app or connected to the remote were easy to understand and follow. The only thing that I found a bit difficult and it is because I am getting old is reading the included manual. The type was small, but they did have a version on the app that was way easier to read. If you are a beginner, I suggest giving this a try. Low-cost, spare parts, and a low learning curve make it a good option.

Ready-to-fly box had NO battery. demanded unboxing video proof. Motors smoked on startup.

Great budget-friendly Drone
This is a fun and easy to use budget friendly drone. It’s nice that you can use it with the included remote or use your smartphone as a remote through the drone app. It includes 2 batteries which gives you plenty of use time. It also includes propeller guards which is great for when you’re first learning and want to protect the device. Once up in the air the drone is easy to fly and responds quickly to the remote commands. The “one touch” take off and landing also make it a breeze to operate. Overall, great drone.
