Snaptain SP500 Foldable 1080p GPS Drone - Black

Capture your life's adventures, both big and small, with the SP500 Foldable 1080p GPS Drone from Snaptain. This quadcopter is an ideal choice for beginners looking to have some fun, with its ability to use GPS to digitally fence in the drone's flight boundaries, its support for headless mode operation, and the inclusion of propeller guards. As you fly, you can record everything in stunning Full HD 1080p resolution, with a camera that provides a wide 110° field of view to ensure that it will capture all of the action.

The SP500 drone can fly for up to 15 minutes at a time on one of the two included 1000mAh batteries. While in the air, you can select from a variety of pre-programmed flight modes to add some creativity to your movies and photos. Controlling the drone is made to be easy. With the included remote and your smartphone, you can use Wi-Fi to pilot from up to 800' away, or you can use gesture controls when the drone is close. Two speed settings let you go slow when just starting out, and a return-to-home safety feature lets you reel the SP500 back in when needed.

Creative Flight Modes

Take more creative and pro-style videos and images by planning routes or having the drone fly a predetermined pattern:

• Circle Fly: The drone will fly around a center point in a circle with the camera pointed inwards; you can even set your desired height and radius.
• Follow Me: The drone will lock on and follow a person automatically while taking photos or videos along the way.
• Lock & Shoot: Who needs a tripod when you can lock the height and location of the drone to have it steadily film or snap a photo while hovering?
• Plan a Route: Manually set waypoints and camera direction to plot out a predetermined flight path for the drone to follow.
• Draw a Route: In the app, draw a circle around an object or draw a route for the drone to fly.

Gesture Controls

Operate the drone and engage functions with simple hand gestures, such as making a peace sign to take a picture or starting/stopping video recording by facing your open palm to the camera.

Headless Mode

This mode is designed to make flying the drone a little more straightforward, especially for those without a lot of flight experience. As the drone is flying, its front can turn in different directions, making it hard to orient it in the direction you want to fly it. With Headless mode, the drone is automatically oriented to the controller. For example, regardless of where the front of the drone is pointing in the sky, if you push forward, the drone will fly away from you; pull back on the stick and it will fly towards you.

Return to Home

The SP500 will return to where it took off (provided there are no obstacles in the way) in a variety of scenarios: when you press a single key on the remote, if the power is too low, or if the remote controller experiences signal or power loss.
