5.0 out of 5 stars Great piece of gadget!

m. · 14 December 2022

Bought this for my son. Its absolutely fantastic and does what it says in description. My son (14) was a novice and can now fly this with ease. He absolutely loves it. Especially with fact it can do 3D flips. The remote joy stick was broken upon delivery and I was going to return it for this reason but my son reminded me it can be used via the App on his mobile phone that you can download, so he was still able to use it fully and was very pleased. Best £40 I've ever spent to see a huge smile across his face.Would most definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to buy for their child/adult be it beginner or not. It does have 3 speed settings too to help with getting used to flying if your a novice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Alright controls. No access to camera app. Battery life very short

J. · 1 January 2024

The controls are okay. The movement is good. The speed can be increased or decreased. However auto fly doesn't work, when there is a button for it. And the drone constantly moves up, without you doing anything so is annoying when just trying to move straight. The flips it can do are cool.Then, the app doesn't work. I go onto it but there is nowhere and no way to connect my phone to the drone. It takes me to chrome then text comes up in Chinese so I don't know what it says. So I can't use the camera or video feature. The battery life is also very short. I charged each of them for around 3 hours each and they only lasted 10 mins each before dying so is not worth it. The drone is very light and blows away in the wind as it is only small.Overall, it's okay to practice moving but there are tonnes flaws, where I just don't think it's worth the money. I would only pay about 10 pound for what I got.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let down by the charger.

I'm rewriting my review for this. The drone is quite good and is let down by the charging time. I've ordered 3 more batteries for it, giving me six. The drone is easy to fly and sturdy. It's taken a fair bit of punishment from me. You can fly it in the house or outside.When you order extra batteries for it, it takes about 8 hours to charge. But I would still recommend it. You can practice with it and then get a full-sized drone.

3.0 out of 5 stars Definitely an eventful experience.

Had problems with this.First, one of the propellers would not spin. I was going to return it. I did manage to fix it, there was a hair wrapped around it which was stopping it from spinning. Not sure how this happened as this was when I took it out of the box.Now that all the propellers are working. We run into the next problem. None of the family can control it properly. Possibly needing a helicopter licence.However that does bring me nicely to the third point about it, this thing might be tiny but it certainly is sturdy. After crashing against the wall at about 20mph, it still managed to attack my light shade, drop to the floor, skid under my telephone table and cause chaos with my landline cables. It then sat patiently waiting for the next person to attempt to control it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great drone to learn how to fly, but...

First of all, it is mainly an indoor drone, as it is pretty small and so light that the smallest gust of wind may cause that you will be looking the drone in bushes if you fly too far/high.Pros: Operating is very easy and intuitive. The controller is sensitive enough, and the drone's responce is very accurate. Automatic calibration is great, and I did not have to calibrate it manually. The drone itself is also good quality. The box includes spare propellers in case of damaging attached ones, but I accidentally hit the drone couple times on the wall, and nothing happened to it.Cons: If you are looking to buy this drone for a camera, then I suggest you to look for something more expensive. I knew that for 30GBP I won't have a good quality drone camera, but the bigger problem is that it's very glitchy. I simply cannot imagine flying it with VR set, knowing that the screen will glitch every 5-10 seconds.Although the controller is very responsive, the plastic quality is a bit poor. Not a big issue, but after changing batteries for the first time, I accidentally snapped the cover lid.The drone battery lasts for about 8 minutes. It is not much, but it's kind of standard for drones which can last up to 15-20 minutes. At least the box contains 3 batteries so you can have fun for about 30 minutes.Overall it is a good drone. I have a lot of fun operating it at home, flipping it (yes, it can flip in the air!). For its price, it is a good drone to learn how to fly. But if you want to buy a drone to fly outdoors, and record videos, then I suggest you to find something more expensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars I had a bad experience and list my drone due to lack of connectivity

2.0 out of 5 stars Failed to fly after a 1 day

A.C. · 1 February 2021

Bought this product as a Christmas present for my son. The product is tiny to be fair but it flew for 1 day. After that the motor on one corner does not give out the same power as the rest so will not get off the ground. Awaiting it to be returned for my money back. Will look elsewhere.The attraction of a camera is a fad as the quality is not great and image is poor.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY

K. · 17 August 2025

Son spent money on it. Charged it, it came on and buzzed into the air, he was very excited. It then proceed to keep going up and away without responding to the controls at all. Up and away. Searched but could not find. Little one saved his pocket money to buy it and instantly gone. I am now giving him the money back and so rate this as low as possible. Cheap and bad.
