Is the Contixo F28 Stratus Max good for beginners?

Yes. GPS hold, return-to-home and simple app controls make it forgiving for new pilots. Budget time for app pairing and a few practice flights before trusting the FPV feed at distance.

Does it record 4K video?

Yes, it records 4K UHD at 3840x2160 to a microSD card. Footage is sharp in daylight but softer in low light, and the 2-axis gimbal limits tilt correction.

How long can it fly per charge?

Contixo rates flight time at up to 23 minutes. Real flights are usually shorter with wind and aggressive maneuvering, so a spare battery helps.

Does it have obstacle avoidance?

No. It relies on GPS and pilot input, so keep it within sight and away from trees, buildings and people.

What comes in the box?

Expect the drone, a controller, a battery, propellers, guards and a charging cable. A microSD card is usually not included, so buy one separately.

How does it compare with a DJI Mini?

The Contixo offers GPS and 4K for less, but DJI Mini drones add a 3-axis gimbal, longer range and a more polished app. Choose Contixo for budget first flights; choose DJI for reliable footage and range.
