I have had this quad for a month now and really happy with the purchase. It handles excellent even loaded down FPV gear. Return to home and GPS hold worked perfect right out of the box with the simple compass calibration. Shipping was only 2 days to Canada, and box was packaged really good. I would recommend this Quad to anyone with some RC flying experience.

Ok, so finally had a few flights on it. The stability is quite good, not as good as a DJI Phantom 2 a fellow club member has, but not bad. In fact quite good. Not too much wonder when in GPS hold mode.
I personally prefer to fly it in altitude hold/balance mode as it is much more manoeuvrable, especially with the rates turned up to 130pcnt. Then the copter will shift. In GPS mode, the rates don't seem to have any effect and it is very sluggish.
I have not tried the return to home yet.
If I was looking for another one then I would not get the Devo 10 radio as it is nothing special really.
The camera gimbal is good, but a bit strange in set-up. The picture from a GoPro is good with almost no jellow effect and very stable.
So overall, a good option for this type of quad, but get a simpler version and use your own radio.

Ok, this is more of an unboxing/assembly review, I will be flying it later and post that review when I have.
The box - arrived quickly even with the free shipping, but only single boxed. There was waterproofed paper around the box, but take that off and you are straight to the printed Walkera box. One corner was damaged but fortunately the contents are fine as they are in a thick vacuum formed plastic container.
VERY IMPORTANT - first thing I did was to charge the 5200mAh battery using my normal charger. BUT the male and female 3.5mm bullet connectors from the battery are REVERSED compared to every other LiPo I have ever bought, so be careful connecting not to reverse the polarity. I did not use the included charger as it only outputs 0.8A and so for a 5.2AH battery could take up to 7 hours to charge! So a pointless charger.
Mounting the camera gimbal - you have to put the black cruciform metal part on the bottom of the quad first (the easy bit) and then fiddle around to get the 2 small screws through all the gimbal with a small allen key to attach the gimbal base to this metal cruciform. Not easy, especially if you have the shakes! Got it done eventually but seemed harder than it needed to be.
It's now ready to fly, so will hopefully get out later and report back findings.
