While you do not need a special license, you do need to register the drone with the FAA (in the United States). You can register here. Please also make sure you are in an allowable airspace when flying.
Our X7 Ranger PLUS, Mini Pro (Obstacle Avoidance Version), and Blackhawk 2 Pro models all offer obstacle avoidance technology!
All drones are covered under our standard product warranty. Please read our warranty policies here so that you understand the differences in coverage.
If the drone runs out of battery mid-air, it will initiate the landing procedure at a descent of ~1m/s. During that time, you will still have X axis control and can attempt to bring it back to you during the time it takes to land. We encourage you not to fly your drone after the low battery warning is signaled. If you are concerned about making a mistake we encourage you to purchase EXO Care insurance!

Yes, the connection between your remote control, drone, and phone all run off their own signal (for all drones).
All updates for the drone will be done through their respective apps, make sure to keep it up to date.
Yes! Everything you need to fly and film. Note - you are encouraged to charge it up fully before taking off.
Simply plug in the MicroSD into the computer like a flashdrive. Or, export it from your phone to the computer (lower resolution than SD card). We strongly recommend using the SD card to transfer footage from the drone to your computer.
To attach, push the rod of the leg into the propeller’s holes and twist to the right. Keep it pushed until fully twisted. After releasing, to test, pull up on the propeller after attachment, it should not move vertically at all. It’s extremely important that you double check they are fastened properly before take off.
While our drones can withstand some light rain, fans on the exterior of the drone can expose moisture to the interior of the drone - you should avoid flying in the rain.
It can store as much as you'd like to your phone, and full storage depends on the size of your MicroSD card. We always recommend filming/shooting to a MicroSD for the best capture resolution. Computers are best for long term storage and management of your video.
Honestly, our pro drone does it best. While the Ranger and Cinemaster both sport follow me mode, they're not nearly as advanced as our Blackhawk. If you don't plan on doing everything manually and want very reliable in-flight features, our Blackhawk will get it done at the level you dream of.
The connection process is detailed in the step by step instruction videos you will receive post-purchase. Additionally, our user manuals walk through the connection process.

-WATCH THE DRONE U VIDEOS! (And instructions) No matter your skill level, Chuck has a unique take on drone shooting.
-NEVER fly your quadcopter out of sight. Quadcopter transmissions are not designed to be sent through walls, landscape barriers, or anything of that sort.
-The marketing and promotional video was done by professional filmers and editors. It does not necessarily reflect your video potential immediately after purchase - However, we have many tools to get you there! In order to get the same bright color out of every shot, you should edit your videos - either in our app or using a different software - computers do it best. New pilots are encouraged to use our smart flight modes such as Follow Me, Point of Interest, etc... in order to get professional video out of his/her new quadcopter.
-If you are going to set an auto fly mode such as dronie, or point of interest circle - make sure there is nothing in the way of the future track. If you set the quadcopter to circle you and it's an unflyable zone behind you - it will continue on route.
-As an unmanned aerial-craft pilot, you must abide by proper airspace laws in order to fly your drone. Why is this important? If you are shooting at an outdoor destination, park, etc.. helicopters, and even low dust planes sometimes fly in unexpectedly responding to a call in the area. When you take off your drone, our technology will warn you automatically if you are in an FAA regulated zone. If you are not specially permitted and logged, you SHOULD NOT fly in these marked zones. There are also other regulations, like national parks, or crowds. To learn more about this, or register a drone formally, read at https://www.faadrone.org/ .
