Great Remote Starter, Drone is Awesome.
By Michael Tripoli on Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2022
This is my first Compustar remote starter that I've installed. Previously I've stuck with Crimestopper products for many cars, but I really wanted to give Drone a try. Having a slot built in for the Blade AL is SUPER nice. It makes installing a bit faster and MUCH cleaner than having another bulky box to mount under the dash. Range is really good on the remote, plus the feedback to let you know when the vehicle has locked/unlocked/started is great. The wiring diagram in the instructions was straightforward and to the point. But the instructions on changing features and settings could use an update to make more clear. Though, if you do enough reading and are technically inclined, it's not too difficult to figure out. Side note: You do need to purchase the OP-500 programmer to change certain features/settings. In my case I installed this on my diesel truck and needed to set a delayed start for the glow plugs after a "key on". This feature can only be changed with the OP-500. A bit annoying, but honestly that little programmer makes changing features a breeze, plus now I have it for future installs. My only other negative is the thermistor it comes with to know how warm/cold it is in the vehicle is super, super short. Which means it has to live up inside the dash with the unit itself so you don't get an accurate temperature read out on Drone, it always thinks it's warmer than it actually is. Drone was super easy to figure out and set up. It is extremely convenient. Drone itself makes this unit worth the money. Never have to worry about locking keys in the truck again! If you're mechanically inclined and good with electrical, this unit is pretty easy to figure out. This kit will be my go to unit for future car starter installs, I'll probably end up upgrading a couple of my old crimestopper installs with this guy for all the added features/convenience. To sum it all up: Great car starter for the money. Awesome features, Drone is sweet, works just like it should. Definitely will buy again.

A year and a half, remote is broken, company charges $80 for replacement. DO NOT BUY FROM AMAZON
By Theo Breece on Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2024
Title says almost full story. Wonderful system, have one in both of my cars. Compustar DOES NOT follow their warranty if purchased from Amazon. My remote has stopped responding, through no fault of my own, and the company says they will not replace because I purchased from here. They said I could buy a replacement myself, and then sent me a link to their own purchase page where this exact key fob is EIGHTY WHOLE DOLLARS. What a shame.
