A great high quality drone for under $500.
Before I start, let me preface this by saying that I do have prior experience with drones. That being said, this is the first drone I've purchased that was more than $200. So I may be easily impressed.Now, this drone is awesome! For $400 I'm in awe at how many features it has. The GPS compatibility is probably the single greatest feature, as it allows the drone to perform accurate station-keeping even in 20 knot winds. It's incredible how stable it is in strong gusts. Coupled with the onboard barometer for altitude keeping, this drone will not move until you tell it to.The Return-to-Home is amazing on it. If I lose contact with the drone and I can't see it, one button press and the drone will turn back and head home. The fact that it will climb to over 100 feet to clear itself of obstacles before starting the return home is something I really like. Keep in mind that the RTH seems to have about a 5 foot radius margin of error on landing. So make sure that on take-off you're not launching from a confined area, as the drone could collide with things.The camera quality is great as well. Everything is crisp and easy to see. The fact you can't change the camera to 1080p @ 60fps is a slight issue for me, as I'd rather have a higher video refresh rate than more pixels. But it's nothing that's deal-breaking.The battery life is amazing. Almost half an hour is insane, especially when just 4 years ago 15 minutes of flight was the top of the line for drones. Add in an extra battery that comes with it, and you're set for almost an hour. The 4 hour recharge is a bit bothersome, but some drawbacks are expected.My one big complaint is the Wi-Fi transmitter for FPV flight. I use an iPad Pro 8th Generation (2020) for the video feed. Once the drone gets about 300-500 feet away (as determined by the app telemetry), the signal stutters and lags, and after about 600 feet I lose telemetry and FPV entirely. I'm not certain if this is due to hardware/environmental issues or a d defect with my particular drone, but it's advertised as having over 3,000 feet of FPV range. So this is quite an issue. I'll post a video later as proof.All in all though, this is one sweet drone, and an excellent alternative for someone who isn't ready to spend close to a thousand dollars on a DJI. I'd highly recommend it!Pros:-Accurate GPS guidance-Easy for beginners-Very long flight range-Long flight endurance-Folding design for storage-Quick setup-Comes with spare rotors and toolsCons:-Limited FPV range (on my drone)-No collision avoidance-Latency in the video feed-App is sometimes finicky(UPDATE: Unfortunately I've had to drop the rating to 3 stars. After about a week and 5 flights, the gimbal and EIS no longer are working on the drone. There's no wires that have been disconnected or any damage to the system. Hopefully customer support will help me this this.)(UPDATE II: After contacting Ruko's customer support staff, I was offered a replacement drone completely free of charge. If you're on the fence about getting this drone, don't hesitate. Buy it! The customer service alone is top tier! A very special thanks to Lassie for helping me out! You rock Ruko!)

Nice camera for a great price!
I was in search for an action camera that was comparable to a GoPro but needed something more budget friendly, so I did an extensive amount of research and the Akaso brand just kept popping up. I decided to get the brave 7 Le because I plan to take it kayaking and snorkeling and it's waterproof. When I opened the box I was not disappointed! The camera is pretty heavy and feels durable. It also comes with a bunch of accessories! Very excited to try the wrist remote on my next adventure!

Great little camera for the price.
This is a good little camera for the price. It’s easy to set up. Everything you need comes in the box. I love the two batteries and the external mic. It easy easy to set up and use. You don’t even need to read the directions. I bought a 128 gb card to go with it. For a decent camera at a low end price this is working for me. Highly recommend. The only negative is that the built in light doesn’t produce enough light in order to shoot in a dark environment. It still produces a decent shot in low lighting. Remember it’s not a $1500 canon. For $250 it gets five stars. Make sure you get the app. You can view your video and control the camera from your phone. Love the app!

Camera works great. However
Took ok videos at 1080p. Didn't use 4k as i was trying to maximise on battery life. Did get a solid 2hrs use. Audio recording is great. Couple pictures I took came out ok but there was one where part of the sky was in 2 different colours, not sure if was due to glare of the sun on or software glitch. However the waterproof case was not waterproof, should of tested it before i went into ocean :-( now i just got a dead camera

Amazing Camera! Great seller!!
My Akaso V50 Pro was great, but, unfortunately it got a little too wet timelapsing a storm, and it broke (my fault). I really wanted a good replacement, and after many reviews, I settled on the Akaso Brave 7. I shoot timelapses making artworks, also of clouds and weather, and I will soon be producing internet videos for an aesthetician. What I like about the Akaso 7 is that it can be used with an external mic, and I am about to buy one for production. I also bought a waterproof case for this one - all GREAT quality. The Akaso brand is amazing - they are SUPER helpful if you need help, they have created a great community of users, and the Brave 7 shipped with a TON of accessories! I HIGHLY Recommend this camera!!!

Little camera with big dreams
The camera came in a clean white box that simply had the company name and camera type on it. Lots of add ons including mounts for helmet, bike, car and more. The instructions need to be downloaded and on a cell phone that can be tedious. I wish they had included paper instructions. I'm buying this for a trip to the carribean so I will upload and update once I have returned.

The camera is small ,light and durable. I put it on my 5" quad. It survived a pretty bad crash. I will more than likely buy one more soon.
