HS600 2-Axis Gimbal Drones with Camera for Adults 4K EIS, Integrated Remote ID, 20000 FT Range Transmission, GPS Drone with Brushless Motors, 4K/30FPS, Follow Me, Level 6 Wind Resistance

The HS600D is arguably the best drone I’ve owned. There is so much to this drone as it has many useful features. To begin with the drone comes in a great carrying case, and within the case you will find two batteries, your drone, remote, and many accessories. The drone itself has an inbuilt remote ID complying with FAA drone regulations. Having two batteries is a huge perk of buying this drone because each battery has 40 minutes of flight time advertised. Upon the first flight of my drone I was flying for around 20 minutes and was left with 50% battery which is what is advertised. The one key takeoff feature works flawlessly and the GPS positioning allows the drone to hover at a set altitude and position and not move. The return to home function works great and landed very close to the original takeoff point. The remote control itself is great it’s easy to use and is well built, the inbuilt screen is a nice touch as speed, altitude and more is displayed directly on it. My favorite feature about this drone is its 4K video/ 8K image camera. Equipped with a 3-axis gimbal and EIS technology the camera provides steady footage while flying around. The quality of the camera is outstanding and is a highlight of this amazing drone. The HS600D is an amazing drone, the technology on this drone is high quality and professional. I highly recommend buying this drone because it is great value for money. I can’t wait to keep flying this drone around and getting some amazing footage!

I’ve never flown or set up a drone before. This one was so easy. For the money it has great features and value. I started in beginner mode but quickly exited and it had great stability and responsiveness. After I connected it the first time, it was very easy maintain connectivity. I was surprised how clear the camera is and with the gimbal the camera was easily controlled without moving the drone. When it returned home, it landed very close to takeoff location but not exactly. I wish the batteries lasted longer or you could purchase an extended time battery. I will be using the drone for my YouTube Channel DunbarLand Farms where I highlight my projects with my Bobcat Skidsteer and Kabota Tractor.

First drone for me and it couldn't have been easier to get started once I charged it up. Some things I'd like to point out: 1) You don't get 56 minutes of continuous flight time. You get max 28 since the drone can only use one battery at a time. Fly it until it's low, bring it back, change batteries, and go back out. 2) The order in which you turn things on makes a difference. Power up the drone. Power up the remote. Let it connect. Then connect your phone to the drone Wi-Fi and launch the app. Works perfectly every time. 3) Don't set the drone down (while powered up) on anything large and made of iron. I set it down on my cast iron tablesaw and it mucked up the compass. Had to power it off and move it away before powering it up again. Minor inconvenience that's easy to avoid, but just something to keep in mind. 4) The Remote ID serial number for the drone is printed on a small sticker on the right side of the drone, just behind the gimbal. Easy to see, but nothing to tell you what it is. You'll need it when you register with the FAA. If you want to be sure that your drone is broadcasting, there's a little app you can install on your phone called Drone Scanner that finds and tracks all nearby drones and shows their serial numbers. Makes it easy to be sure you're FAA-compliant. 5) Charging - The batteries charge much more quickly with a high-speed charger and a USB-C to C cable, but I haven't been able to get the controller to charge that way. Have to use a USB-A to C for it to begin charging. About the camera and the complaints in the reviews. For this price, you're not going to get a cinematic experience. The images are a bit overexposed, you can't adjust much on the camera (such as exposure time and ISO), but the footage is really good, especially when you consider the price. The video is rock steady and with a bit of cleanup in a package like DaVinci Resolve (which is free), you can make a pretty darned good video. Only complaints I have about the camera is the inability to adjust the ISO and exposure times (which make night shooting pretty much pointless) and the lack of RAW mode on the photos. But again, for the price, it's tough to beat this little guy. Only real gripes I have about it are minor and are something I hope Holy Stone is working on: 1) Improve the documentation. The "tutorial" video is more of a promo for the drone's features. It doesn't tell you the details about the features and how to use them. The app itself really needs to be documented since there's nothing to tell you what each icon means. 2) Give users more control over the camera. At this price I don't expect to be able to adjust the aperture, but exposure time and ISO should be within reach with software updates. I would also think RAW mode would be possible for the photos, but I'll take what I can get. 3) Give me a way to adjust the yaw rate. The joystick is too jerky to get smooth rotation on video and I haven't found a way to adjust it (see documentation, above). 4) Camera modes - When I launch the app without connecting it to the drone, there are options for panorama and time-lapse photos. Can't figure out how to get to them when I'm connected. I haven't really found any show-stoppers with this little guy. It's a solid little drone at a great price that has a lot of nice features.

This is the first drone that I have flown so my knowledge of Drones is very limited. The drone is pretty easy to control for the most part. I am still learning to operate it and some time get the drone headed in the wrong direction which makes the controls seem to work in the opposite direction. The pictures and video are very good and the zoom works well. The only problem I have had with it is sometimes the gimble works and sometimes it does not. This is probably operator error and I will figure it out in the next flew flights. I live in South Texas where the wind always blows. Today when I flow it the wind speed was 17mph with gust to 22mph. The drone worked well as I flew it over my paster and viewed my cows and my water troughs. I flew it out to a distance of 1000 feet (it was very visible at that distance) and it retuned home well. As I learn to operate it better I will be flying it out to about 4000 feet to check water troughs, cows and predator surveillance. I would like to check my fences with it but that will take a lot of fly time to learn to fly it close enough to the fence to be able to see a broken wire. As for now I am happy with the performance of the drone and I think it will save me time from having to drive out and check on these items, Holly Stone's customer service has been great as I have called them several times with questions about setup and operation of the drone. They have always been very friendly and helpful. The price and quality of the drone is great for my needs and my first drone.

This is my second drone. I upgraded to the HD600D after quite a bit of research and watching videos on YouTube. For the recreational use i wanted a drone for, I decided to go with it. First off let me say this thing is more than I was expecting. It comes in a very nice case with everything you need to get started. It arrived on a very windy day 30-40 mph winds with nothing but rain for the next several days. I couldn't wait to try it out, so despite my better judgment outside we went. This thing is a beast and hovered, flew, took great pictures/ videos despite the wind. It was surprisingly stable and I even went up to 200 feet. Im glad I decided to go with this model and can't wait for my adventures with it. Loving it so far!!

I have been trying different drones in search of one with a solid clear camera, stable flight characteristics, and reasonable price. While this was the best holy stone drone, overall it’s still poor and not worth the cost compared to DJI. Compared to the holy stone 360s, it’s quite abut larger in size - I’d say nearly double. Flown in light to slack air, I had an almost unacceptable amount of drift, really the drones only weak point. The controller is exactly the same as the 360. I appreciate that the controller is rechargeable. The battery is scaled up from the 360/720g to match the drones larger size. I got over 25 mins of flight, and it was about 35 degrees outside - cold definitely hurts batteries. The camera is clear, but lacks any real digital zoom. There’s an option in the app, but it didn’t change anything. There’s a substantial delay and loss of real time video feed when taking a photo, about 10 seconds, a long time when flying. I wish the camera of the 720g drone came available on this bigger and seemingly more stable hs 600. O well, the other short falling, the carrying case is set up vertically which makes it difficult to keep organized. This drone keeps a flight log and this could come in handy for recovery if the drone ever got lost! I had no several issues with connectivity in my 25min flight. The controller seems to lose connection to the phone and I had to give permission for it to reconnect with hovering. Of the three holy stone drones I’ve tried, this one has been the most stable during flight and while it is more expensive than the 360 and lacks the better camera and zoom of the 720g, it’s the best of the three I received. However, it may have been luck of the draw and there may be a serious quality control issue in general at hs, since both the 360 and 720g I purchased had clear factory defects that made them unsuitable for use. Compared to another brand like DJI,this drone is poor and not worth the money.

Great quality drone. The battery lasts about 34 minutes of flight time. I flown this drone a lot and really enjoy it. The drone camera quality is amazing and is very clear. The drone came with a high quality controller with a good carrying bag. The drone is very easy to fly with automatic landing and takeoff. The drone has a lot of different modes to choose from like follow me, vr, and much more. This drone is for anyone looking for a good drone at a low price.

After experiencing an unfortunate fly-away with my former HS720, several people in the Holy Stone Club recommended upgrading to the HS600 and I am SO GLAD I took their advice! This drone is quite an upgrade! I have only been able to fly a couple of times since receiving it due to poor weather but the couple of times I have been able to get off the ground have been awesome! The quality of the HS600 remote alone was a HUGE improvement and the process to connect to my phone/drone with the HS FLY software is much easier. Normally with my 720, I wouldn't fly if there was any breeze at all but this HS600 is heavy duty and the light breeze we've had didn't effect the flight whatsoever. From the moment the drone was 6 feet off the ground, it stayed eye lever with me and didn't hesitate to hover in place. I swear, this thing can fly itself. I was also very impressed with the camera. Not only is the video I've recorded very smooth, but I love the Zoom feature on this model which should enable me to get some really great wildlife footage in my neighboring fields without spooking the animals. I am looking forward to better weather and more adventures recording footage in new areas with my HS600!
