    Have to admit, I bit the bullet on one of these. Shipping starts next week hopefully. Also, not that I could think of ever think of a reason to fly it that distance, but the range has been revised to 8km. Hope to get some footage of remote areas in Connemara and the Burren when the weather improves.

    Canceled the order for a refund. Gearbest kept pushing the shipping date back.Despite having paid for the order in mid December, they still shipped to buyers who ordered after that date first. According to customer service next delivery date is 10th February, and even that date couldn't be guaranteed.

    Maybe it's just as well. The Zino and Zino pro seem to be plagued with battery and firmware problems at the moment. Original batteries not charging correctly and drones suddenly dropping during flight.

    Think I'll wait for any problems that might arise to get sorted out first, but on paper the Zino 2 does have impressive specs for the price. Gearbest have put the price up but I suspect that when Banggood and Aliexpress get their quota it will come back down again.
