Our take on the Vivitar SkyHornet Foldable RC Aerial Drone for Adults with 720p HD Camera, WiFi FPV Live Video & 3 Speed Modes

The Vivitar SkyHornet is a folding quadcopter with a 720p camera that streams live video over WiFi to a phone. It adds auto takeoff and landing, altitude hold, headless mode and three speed settings, and it flies for up to about 11 minutes per charge. It suits beginners and casual flyers who want simple, portable camera flights rather than cinematic footage. Against DJI Mini-class drones it is far simpler and cheaper in build, with lower video quality and no GPS or stabilization, and its 3.9-out-of-5 rating reflects that mixed reception.
