Review: This was an amazing project for me. I loved the amazing idea of DIY (do it yourself ) kit. Looking at each and every part that goes into building a drone and following the step by step process to build-assemble the drone impressed me a lot. Pluto drone though looks complicated was simple to imagine after I build it. The step by step guide helps you understand the concept as well as help you build the drone. The second most thing that impressed me was - using my mobile phone to control the device ( I used Oneplus 3). I could calibrate and control my drone using my mobile phone. This is just like those amazing on screen action movies. Fun fact - I did this entire exercise together with my niece who is studies in 7 th standard at school. Even she could understand about all the components that goes into building a drone. It was very durable drone. I crashed it a couple of times on sofa, on table and twice on wall by mistake. Review: This is an excellent drone for beginners, specially for people who don't just want to fly the drone but also customise it with different peripherals. I am a beginner myself and so I picked this drone after researching for a bit. I have had a great time flying it and programming it as well. A minor setback was that a few days in, one rotor stopped working unexpectedly. But the customer support being really prompt, they sent me a replacement motor right away with just a 2 emails. If you're looking for a drone to just fly there might be other options (though I won't comment on their quality) but if you have the slightest tendency to explore things, or want to learn things you could do with a drone and are just starting out, I don't think anything else comes close to the Pluto 1.2 ## Features - Do-it-yourself (diy) - have fun building your drone. Spares available + open sourced designs - Programmable: C++ based api structure makes it extremely easy to program (all codes open sourced) - Fly with smartphone - start with simple alt hold + motion control mode and graduate to more difficult acrobatic flying levels.

Unfortunately I couldn't return on time as it was my son's birthday gift and had to wait for a week to open it. Very Little support from call centre for a resolution. Have written mail to drona aviation. My humble request: please don't go for it. Manual didn't help at all.
