like really small
This thing is small, like really small! It takes up about 60% of my palm or so. With that said, it's size doesn't take away from how fun it is. I have owned two drones before, but nothing in this size.I can't believe that it is packed with so many features into this tiny thing! So cool. You don't even need the controller, you can simply fly it right from your phone. The video is decent quality, but the range is only about 100 feet. If you are flying in your house, you can actually navigate just using the screen.The joysticks are ridiculously responsive. It also has different speed settings that allow you to customize them to your liking. I went all the way the to the max. Although I found the size of the controller a little challenging, you will see big improvements from flight to flight (about 5 minutes or so) I have literally gone from a 1 to about an 8 or so as a pilot in about 6-7 flights with it. Anyone can learn, it's only two sticks. After all, it's just getting used to the power of the motors in relation to the extreme light weight of the drone.It seems durable. I crashed a bunch on my first 3 flights. I actually already bought one for my father and think he will love it. The altitude hold helps to hover, but I think anyone could find joy in this.Perfect for a home, backyard or other small areas. Highly recommend, just give it at least three flights and you will really see how fun it can be vs. semi-frustrating.

I stumbled across this one and it looked pretty cool so I figured I'd give it a chance
I was looking to upgrade my drone collection with a nano-sized drone. My only requirements were that it had to have FPV and an APP. I stumbled across this one and it looked pretty cool so I figured I'd give it a chance. The level of entertainment is really great from this little guy. My suggestion is to FOLLOW the INSTRUCTIONS and place the drone on a flat surface and calibrate (trust me). With it being so small, calibrating the controls are vital.The features are pretty straight-forward. I always fly with headless mode on because of it's size I get turned around easily. The App is pretty cool and nicely designed. It allows you to see live footage while your flying. Though I prefer to fly with the controller, rather than the phone, you have the option. The video footage records directly to your phone so sending it to people is super simple.ALSO, one of my main requirements is to try to buy from companies in the USA. I've had problems in the past trying to get a hold of customer service and finding replacement parts. I've learned my lesson.Well worth the price. A good nano-sized quad with a decent flight time. The quad is very responsive and durable. The one thing that could be better which are not deal breakers is the photo quality of the camera.

I wanted to like it, but...
I feel like this is more of a micro drone as opposed to a mini. It's about a quarter of the size of my hand. The battery does not come out so you just plug it in. Decent speed on a charge but that's where the good seems to go bye bye. It's crazy squirrelly to fly and it seems to over compensate when you're on the controls. Crashed it multiple times and I'm a decent drone flier normally. A few times it would just stop responding and fall out of the air. Snapped off one it's little leg supports. Not worth trying to replace.

Nice Drone for small places
I really enjoyed this drone. Been messing with this for about a month as still love to fly it. I have been looking for a FPV micro drone for a while and decided on this one and was not disappointed. I didn't want to blow my wallet on $100+ toy and the price was right on this one.The remote was a little small for my fat fingers so I downloaded the app and used my phone to fly this thing and had no issues with it. It is fun to fly as you do not need a big area since its a small drone.The best part, you get the video from flying this thing. Cool as hell. I felt like a kid all over again. Definitely recommend this drone if you don't have a big place as I do most of the flying inside my house. Merry Christmas to me.

The Torpedo is quite easy to use even for a beginner
Having owned a couple high end drone for many years, I was intrigued to see such a powerful unit in such a small package. The Torpedo is quite easy to use even for a beginner. Using the Kolibri app it allows you to totally control the drone and the remote it really opens this little drone up. I have flown it far and still maintained complete control. Also thankfully there is an out range alarm.If you are looking for an easy to use portable drone I highly recommend this one. Do note that flight time is about 5-7 mins per charge.

very reliable and it takes great pictures and video
I got this little drone after returning a defective drone from a different company. So far, no complaints. It's very small in size, very reliable and it takes great pictures and video. It is very responsive to phone and very intuitive. Controls are very sensitive. I guess that with a little practice I can master it. Probably the best option if you want to get a micro drone.

It is so much fun to fly and really easy out of the box
I just got this drone. I have been looking for a FPV micro drone level. But I am not an advanced pilot, and needed a toy level. Also I didn't want to spend $100+. Then I came across this one! It is so much fun to fly and really easy out of the box. I recommend downloading the app - it's a blast with the phone. The control was a tad small and I felt more comfortable with the phone. Plus you get to watch all the video. Though the range gets limited by the phone. But I only fly inside so its not an issue for me.

Very happy with the Torpedo drone
Very happy with the Torpedo drone. If you want to get into drone flying, this drone is fantastic. It is very easy to fly and the video footage is spectacular. You won't be disappointed. Although battery life is somewhat short generally around 5 minutes flying time. Even with that amount of time you can get some amazing video footage and have a blast. We own 3 and he kids love to race and battle each other. Even falling out of the air they are really durable. One of the blades cracked but a dab of glue fixed it right up. Highly recommend.
