Great Value and Sound

I was really surprised at the sound quality and fit considering the cost. Extending the ear cups for larger heads seems a little wonky at first but they are stable and comfortable after they are fitted up.

Great Package for Multiple Applications.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as a family camera for a lot of the active things we do. I realized in my research that there are better drones out there, but this is a system that allows so many different applications that you can't get at the same price with any of the other drones.
This is our second GoPro camera we have owned and it is so much better than the Hero 2 that we replaced. They have done a lot of improvements since then.
It is easy to learn how to fly and I was happy to find that replacement propellers are only $20 since I had a few learning accidents in the first week.
When flying in windy conditions, be prepared that the horizon will tilt due to the drone's compensation for a crosswind. Like I said above if I was only looking for a drone with a camera, I might look at different model, but I have found a lot of different ways to use the drone, and the karma grip to get some great photos. From mountain biking with the grip mounted on my pack to holding the grip and chasing my kids on the beach skim-boarding and taking great photos that would only be possible in the past with a helicopter for hire. We have been loving it.

Great for house parties and fun.

I got this for bring to friends houses, back yards and small venue public address. I was impressed with the sound right off the bat. It is clear with plenty of base. The Karaoke feature is nice since it works with most songs and adds another aspect to the party. I love the lights as it gives more flare and fun.
Could do without the "scratching" feature as it just makes noise and the DJ effects are just annoying. I just make sure my kids don't play with those buttons.
I am considering getting a second one to have them linked for more sound without the wires.

Will the drone crash into tree or building etc or does it automatically move away.

Yes it will crash into anything that gets in the way. It does not have proximity sensors like some of the other models. The placement for hovering is dependent on GPS location so I find it may have some drift (1-2ft tops) at very low elevation. Like many of the reviews say, it isn't the BEST drone but it is a full system for action photography which the other drones aren't.

Blast your favorite tunes with this VIZIO Crave Pro multiroom speaker. Its SmartCast app lets you connect multiple speakers throughout the house to play high-fidelity sound that doesn't degrade. Cast a playlist from your smartphone to this VIZIO Crave Pro multiroom speaker without worries of disruption from texts or phone calls.
 

How does the volume of these speakers compare to the Sonos line? In a purely volume based comparison would it be more like a Play 1 or a Play 3?

I haven't heard the Sonos but I will say that this is loud if you want it to be. controlling the volume through my phone it will only go to level 20, but you can continue to increase the volume on the unit to 30 or more. We found that out while using it for a party and it was nearly as loud as one of my DJ speakers I use for my business which is a JBL Eon 15". Impressive and still fairly clear. A little distortion when you really crank it up depending on the song.

It will work off of laptop or iphone for PANDORA?

Yes it will. Since it connects via bluetooth, it will work for any bluetooth audio output you have. We use it for Pandora off of our iPhones and iPad for working out and parties. Our Chromebook has also played on it via bluetooth as well.
