Bull feces is what I call it
I bought this drone for my kids, hoping that they would be able to have fun with it so when it came, I hit it until the morning because I was going to set it up for them or was I sorely mistaken read the two books that they give you no luck watched multiple videos. It got better but when I try to connect phone to drone for a video it would not connect so I watch more videos and as I’m watching these videos, I’m noticing everyone saying the same thing so I go try it nothing so then I go look at the reviews for the app not the drone the app the thing is way outdated at least it may be a year or so. It sucks because I know my kids would have loved this getting to see things from over view my question is why is this thing so high priced if Costco has one for 50 bucks that works better than this I just assumed that it would be better to grab off of Amazon, but I’m letting you know right now. Do not get this product you will have spent almost $200 for no reason.

Best drone ever
I m so happy with my purchase.It’s not small like other drones which I love about it.They gave me $10 coupon when I was buying it.I differently recommend it.

Dud not Drone
My son-in-law tried flying it once and never tried again. Pay for what you get.

– First thing you need to know is that this is a rebrand of the Potensic P5G drone. In fact, after registering for the Fly Cam app, I actually received an email from Potensic. So Tomzon and Potensic basically mean the same thing.- Let’s go over some of the things I like about this drone package: The whole package comes in a nice bag that holds everything together: the drone, remote controller, 2 batteries, extra propellers and propeller guards (which I recommend to put on if you are a first timer). The bag looks nice on the outside too.- The 2nd thing I like about this camera is the weight: It’s only 238 grams with battery! That means you can fly this thing in Canada without the need to Register your drone and you don’t need to get a drone pilot certificate because it’s under 250 grams. It’s considered a microdrone as defined by Transport Canada. Of course you need to still keep other safety guidelines that apply to all drones such as avoiding advertised events, avoiding airports, ceiling limits, etc.- At your first flight, you need to calibrate the drone. Just watch some videos on Youtube about Potensic drones to see how it works. It’s fairly simple to do. Just turn the drone 2 full 360 degree turns, then point it down and turn it sideway another 2 turns. For some reason, I had trouble doing that as I turned the drone and it didn’t allow me to go to the next step. Took me around 10 minutes to complete the calibration when it should take like 10 seconds. Not sure what I did wrong because the problem didn’t occur again.- There are 2 fly modes, GPS and non GPS. I suggest flying with GPS mode as that is how you can access Return to Home and other functions. The drone needs to connect a minimum number of GPS satellites connected in order for it to work. And so in the app, it will show a message letting you know that you can’t fly yet and that’s because it doesn’t connect to enough satellites yet. Just wait a minute or 2 and it should be ready.- Flying is super fun. Easy to control. However, you cannot fly this drone in windy conditions at all. Very hard to control the drone in windy conditions. On a day I measure the wind speed at ground level to be about 11-12 km/hr which means it’s higher gust up and flying the drone up just a few meters higher (about 2 story high) and the wind drifts the drone further and further. I thought I almost lost the drone because Return to Home doesn’t work as it tries to fight with the wind to get back to the original location to land. And so this drone must fly in a very calm condition. I couldn’t find any info about wind resistant capability of this drone and so from my test, I think it’s minimal.- The camera is ok. I like that you can remotely control the camera’s angle by moving the right scroll wheel on the remote. This will move the camera’s position 90 degrees straight down. Footage from the memory card (micro sd type) looks good but the camera angle is very crooked and I don’t know if there is a way to adjust them. By crooked I mean the horizon is slanted very much. The camera does not Image Stabilization, but it has spring abosorbtion shocks between the camera housing and the drone body. But still it shakes during flights.- Overall this is a nicely put together package for beginner drone flying. But the drone that any drone trying to beat for the “under 250 gr” category would be the DJI Mavic mini series. And the drone that came to my mind is the Mini SE that sells for just a little bit more than this drone with better camera quality as well as wind resistance. The only problem is the MiniSE is slowly being discontinued here in Canada and it’s hard to find a Canadian retailer selling what’s left of their inventory. This is a nice drone to fly as a beginner for fun.

If you desire to capture breathtaking aerial moments without shelling out a fortune, the TOMZON P5G Drone with Camera is a compelling choice. Straight out of the package, the TOMZON P5G impresses with its robust craftsmanship and premium materials. The inclusion of a carrying bag adds convenience, ensuring easy portability. The addition of propeller guards provides an extra layer of protection, while the inclusion of spare propellers ensures uninterrupted flights in the face of any mishap. For novices, the one-button take-off and landing feature is a game-changer. It simplifies the flying process and safeguards against common mishaps during these pivotal moments. Moreover, the drone’s astounding range of up to 985 feet and its rapid auto-return system instill a sense of “fool-proof” reliability. Equipped with a 4K camera and the “FlyCam” app, this drone unlocks a range of functions such as follow-me mode, customizable flight paths, and GPS auto return. The real-time video transmission to your mobile device provides a thrilling first-person perspective that heightens your flight experience.On the other hand, while the camera captures impressive 4K video, some users have noted slight vibrations in the footage, especially in gusty conditions. This issue may impact the overall fluidity of your recordings. Operating the TOMZON P5G may pose a challenge for complete beginners, as it entails acquainting oneself with the controls and app. As such, this drone may not be suitable for children or those seeking an instant “plug-and-play” experience.Although the flight time is reasonable at approximately 30 minutes per battery, the need to return every 15 minutes to swap batteries may mildly inconvenience users engaged in extended filming sessions. Furthermore, despite offering three speed modes, the fastest one may not satiate those yearning for a truly high-speed flight encounter.Thus, the TOMZON P5G Drone with Camera provides an affordable gateway to immersive aerial adventures. Its 4K camera and FPV capabilities enable you to capture awe-inspiring footage and relish an unmatched perspective from the skies. While it entails a slight learning curve, mastering the art of flying the TOMZON P5G rewards you with a seamless and gratifying experience. Though rivalled by other budget-friendly models like the DJI Mavic Mini SE, the TOMZON P5G holds its own with its lightweight design, impressive range, and beginner-friendly attributes. If you seek to explore the enthralling realm of aerial photography and videography without straining your budget, the TOMZON P5G Drone with Camera is your ticket to a memorable flight high above the horizon. Soar with delight as you take in the world from an entirely new perspective. Happy flying!

It’s my opinion that this drone is reasonably priced. My only real gripe with it is that its battery recharges via micro-USB instead of the latest USB-C. The remote requires three AAA batteries which I had to source myself. The convertible carrying case can be worn as a messenger brief or a backpack. It is made of a lightweight and silky water-resistant fabric and houses the drone and its peripherals in a foam casing. The drone uses the FlyCam App which displays helpful information such as GPS and allows for tilting of the camera angle. The app doesn’t provide any storage whatsoever but the drone takes a TF card 4 GB to a max of 128 GB which I had to source myself. I find that I have to transfer footage from the TF card to my computer with each flight. Storage capacity runs out with the battery which is annoying, but not abnormal to my previous experience with drones. Operation of the drone is standard with one joystick to control height and the other for directional steering much like the controls found on a remote control car. Like all other drones I’ve tried, this drone is loud so it is noticeable when flying overhead. It is very powerful and spits up dirt from the ground when taking off. The video captured is crisp but the footage came out a bit blue when I tested it but it’s workable footage. Overall great drone, better than the other home drones I have tried and pretty sturdy too considering I crashed it a few times without the blade guards on. So far the drone has survived but my garage door is scuffed. Take the first flight in an open field and away from any structures.
