Pros
- Small, portable, safe, unobtrusive drone that you should be able to fly most anywhere without aggravating the drone phobic.

- Potensic Toy app provides ability to view real time in-flight video from the drone, and record this video (or photos) to your phone. The Potensic Toy app is available here on Google Play bit.ly/ElfinApp, or here on the Apple App Store bit.ly/Elphin-App.
Cons
- No SD card recording capability. Video and photos are recorded to your phone only via 2.4Ghz Wifi (with inherent WiFi limitations).
- Advertised with 2K camera. However, video and photos can only be recorded/saved at much lower 720p resolution.
- Installing the provided propeller guards can cause the drone to fly erratically. It is best not to install them.
- Brushed motor drone. The motors may someday require replacement.
