    Hi guys, I received my first Drone this week, through the bargain alert thread. I'm having issues getting a connection between my phone and the drone. I have downloaded the app etc. I have used it twice but each time I have had to delete app and go through the process again and possibly not get a connection. Anyone any ideas, can't find anything in boards or online.. TIA.

    Hey Morgan,

    If its the s8 2020, I found that i had to turn on the drone, then the controller and wait for about 45 seconds before plugging it into the phone for it to connect properly. It should then automatically open the drone app.

    I find it great. Totally hobby use, I just enjoy bringing it too places I know and seeing stuff I never knew was there even if I grew up in the area. Picture quality is great, and a 2nd battery is a must.. I bought a case off AliExpress for a couple quid.

    Links for what? I just searched on AliExpress for the bits and bought drone off banggood when the original offer was highlighted back in April.
