In my opinion the H107D is made to serve one primary purpose...to introduce and provide an inexpensive way to learn FPV (first person view) drone piloting. Although it has FPV video feed, don't expect the feed, recorded or otherwise to come near the quality of a dedicated camera drone...it's sharp and clear enough for beginning FPV, but not much more. The machine flies very well, is responsive to control input, and is actually quite fast and nimble...again well-suited as an FPV starter. It's very durable, but for the same reasons that make it durable it can also be a pain. For example, instead of the props breaking, they tend to simply come off, even if using the included prop guard...you hit the deck hard and you'll be sticking props back on...beats replacing them though! Instead of the legs breaking, the bottom part separates from the top part. Not a big deal, but it means in order to resume flight, one must first snap the pieces back together. It binds and calibrates easily and consistently to the transmitter/controller. Typical flight time with stock battery is about eight minutes. Typical AA battery life for the transmitter is about three flights. The FPV on-board camera is at a poor angle for fast forward flight (angled too low). The antenna is positioned horizontally which adds durability, but greatly decreases the range possible. The angle of view from the on-board camera is too narrow to achieve a truly immersive FPV experience. Easy mods that fix the above negative aspects- Add a cellphone "jelly" wide-angle lens to the on-board camera lens to provide a wider field of view. Pull the AA battery holder from the transmitter and replace the connection with a lipo that will fit in it's place to greatly improve TX operating time. The antenna can be easily re-positioned to a vertical stance and that alone will nearly double the range. Every conceivable mod for this unit can be found on YouTube. I think that the H107D is a good value, well designed and well built. Replacement parts are cheap...new body=$5.00, 20 props=$2.00, new motors, set of 4=$10.00. For those interested in FPV racing your options boil down to either starting with an all-inclusive unit like the H107D, or jumping right into a more serious $300.00 quadcopter (not including Tx, batts, charger, FPV goggles or monitor, etc.) and blowing probably an additional $100.00 or more on parts and repairs before you even learn to fly the thing.

Hubsan 107 quads are a lot of fun to zip around with in the yard. I found the 107D to be very heavy, and not really a good fpv flyer. For one thing, there is no altitude hold on this model, so if trying to fly fpv, you are constantly fighting keeping it at a level altitude. This is magnified by the heavy weight of the model relative to it's size and lift. Hubsan also has a tendency to fight small yaw inputs...you try and yaw slightly right, and it corrects itself back to the original trajectory. Thirdly, on any of these built in low power fpv transmitters, range is not good and interference is abundant. If you buy one of these, I would highly suggest buying the newer model with altitude hold, I would also suggest buying a set of high current (2400 mah or higher) rechargeable cells for the transmitter, as built in receiver / monitor for the fpv sucks battery life. Either buy the rechargeable batteries or buy some stock in a battery manufacturer of your choice.Read full review

Hubsan's other X4 quadcopters have already proven quite popular with hobbyists. The previously-released H107C model also has a camera, although it doesn't provide a live feed. Instead, users have to watch the recorded footage after the fact. With the FPV, however, they can see what the camera's seeing as it sees it, via a 4.3-inch color LCD screen in the control unit. This makes it possible to fly by first-person-view (hence the FPV in its name), although a wider lens would make doing so considerably easier. It's also possible to start and stop recording via a single button on the controller. The FPV measures about 4.5 inches (114 mm) diagonally, looks beautiful, and feels nice and solid in hand. One charge of its 3.7-volt 380-mAh lithium polymer battery takes about 30 minutes via an included USB cable (which can be difficult to disconnect), and is good for around seven minutes of flight time. This means that learning to fly the thing has to be done in numerous short installments. Great little aircraft!! Extremely easy to learn to fly right out of the box! Highly recommend giving this one a try!!Read full review

Small, fast and fun. If you are trying to work on your FPV skills, this is great. If you are just looking for a small quad, skip the camera option or transmitter with display (eats batteries).

This drone is easy to fly. The propeller guards are great and prevent damage and promote safety. Wish the batteries would last longer. The price and service was good.
