@@MicheleStancil my apologies for the delay, it's good practice to keep track of which way is pointed forward so as not to be too reliant on the technology. Further, if you want to get your part 107 license sometime down the road, many of the higher end drones do not have headless mode. Such as the offerings from dji. However, if you're just starting out, one can have fun with headless mode, but it's best to maintain situational awareness for optimal control of your craft. I would suggest just being aware of the highest obstacles around you, go 20 or so feet higher and whatever you do don't panic when you're at the controls. Just take your time to learn the controls, before long it will be second nature and you will be much more comfortable and confident in your abilities. Best of luck to you, and make sure to have fun!

Michael Pemantel I say HolyStone makes great drones,& that I would gladly review drones for them.My name is Michael Pemantel & I live in Knox,NY.Hope I win because the drone that I have now isn't that good,already had a gear break after only 5 flights.It's a ZLL SG907 Pro,that I was gifted for Christmas.It flies well,takes good photos,but with the video is shaky.I'm looking to upgrade,but being disabled limits my funds to very little.I love photography,& have a good Canon digital camera,but I'm always looking to try something different,like "light painting",& motion blur.I like to think outside of the box,& I think that's why I received the drone.It also helps(for me)to relieve stress,& my grandson loves grandpa's "helicopter"😁Tried to tell him it's a drone,but 3yo boys know more than a 51yo man😂😂😂😂You & your wife have a great day,happy flying,& fly safe🚁PS.they really need a drone emoji😁 #wheresthedroneemoji Oh...I say HolyStone!

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing this. i have the drone. it is cool though i had courage to flew it just once ever since. Please, just to get you right as i am very very new to drones. since its non GPS drone, if i fly beyond 100M in any direction it will lost control and i will not be able to get it back- is this what you mean? if this is true how do i know if i am heading towards the maximum distance allowed? will the drone alert me? Thanks for helping out.

Unfortunately the HS175D has gone up $30 in the last month on Amazon. It was $170 recently and now it seems to be $200. It seems like the main differences with this HS260 is brushed motors, and no RTH or follow me features since it's not GPS like the HS175D. It would be nice if there were more brushless motor GPS options in the $150 range. You don't even get any kind of camera stabilization with the $200 HS175D which is a shame. I'm guessing one would probably have to pay at least $300 for one that's brushless motor, GPS, and has camera stabilization.
