Third-party reviews

What we like about Revell Pocket Drone

  • Foldable and truly pocket-sized
  • 720p live view on a phone
  • Altitude hold for steady flight
  • Headless mode for easy steering
  • Well-known model-kit brand

What we don't like about Revell Pocket Drone

  • Tiny 0.72 MP sensor gives basic footage
  • No GPS or return-to-home
  • Brushed motors wear faster
  • Best kept indoors or on calm days

Verdict

The Revell Pocket Drone is a foldable mini camera drone that lives up to its name by fitting into a pocket. A 720p camera streams live video to a phone over Wi-Fi, which lets kids and beginners see the flight from the drone's point of view and save quick clips. Altitude hold keeps the height steady, and headless mode makes direction control simple for newcomers. The camera uses a very small 0.72 MP sensor, so footage is basic and soft compared with 1080p or 4K drones. Brushed motors keep costs low but are less durable than brushless designs, and there is no GPS, so it is best flown indoors or on calm days. As a portable, fun toy from a well-known model brand, it is a playful way to try a camera drone without a big outlay.
