There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
was a gift - have not hear if that one is still working or not working. I cannot recommend.
Updated 3/25/24. The seller reached out to me after reading my review and offered to replace the drone that lasted only one week. The new one arrived quickly and so far no issues. The seller sent another item
at no charge for us to try. I was pleased with the seller response - keeping me informed of when the replacement was sent and double checked to be sure in fact did receive it. They even sent me a hand
written note. I appreciate that they stand behind the products they sell and would not hesitate to purchase from them in the future.
Charging is easy - it has a USB with a charging light and a tiny barrel connector on the other end. When the light goes out, the drone is fully charged and ready to go. This seems to take around 30 minutes plus or minus. The drone itself has a center light that doubles as a status indicator. Flashing red and green means it's calibrating itself. Solid green means ready to fly. Blinking red means it needs to charge. The unit itself is fairly small, maybe the size of a DVD and a few inches thick. The entire thing is caged so it's safe to hold and be near when flying - it's not going to nick anybody and you can't easily get your fingers in a prop (even if they're little fingers). It's surprisingly lightweight and feels a bit delicate but not flimsy.
The actual flying is super easy. You really can just drop or toss it and it'll right itself and start hovering. My 4 year old had no problem getting it started. The drone seems to rotate slowly when flying which gives a cool UFO effect with the outer lights. It will sort of meander around the room changing height and direction by itself if you don't interact with it. It does a pretty good job of avoiding objects and when it does bump into things, it's pretty gentle and just lightly bounces off. We had a couple crash landings and could just pick it up and toss it to get it flying again. When flying, it does make a loud angry mosquito noise, which is pretty typical for any smaller quadcopter.
There are a few negatives, as with most products. The flight time is only around 5 minutes, and the battery is not swappable, so you can play for 5 minutes and then have to charge for 30 to fly it again. This isn't terrible but it really limits your interactions with the drone since there's literally no way to play with it for longer, and I worry it may be forgotten about or set aside before long. The battery must be really tiny given the overall light weight. The flight is kind of erratic at times and on our first flight, the drone wandered into a small bathroom, crashed, tried to fly behind the toilet, and popped off a propeller. We had to rescue it and it wasn't immediately obvious a propeller had come off. It would then flip upside and fly in one direction only and was pretty much unusable. After studying it closely, we noticed the missing prop and I went to track it down (it's small!). My wife was able to repair it and we were back in business. The motion sensors work well and you can "push" the drone back and forth which is fun but it doesn't always do what you want. There's a bottom sensor you can use to make the drone go up and my kids chasing it around tends to make it rise out of their reach (they're short) so instead of controlling it, it kind of flies away from them, which is still fun but doesn't make them feel like they're in control of it.
I still think the price and simplicity here are a total win for young kids. They can do it without help and it's amazing and fun to watch it really fly around and the cage and obstacle avoidance makes it pretty safe. You could argue it's not a "real" drone like the more advanced quadcopters because you only sort of control this one, but it's about all kids in the preschool-ish age range can handle. I wish it had more battery life and that the sensors were more effective but I'd expect to pay twice as much. A drone exactly like this but much larger (say 12-16" diameter) would be hilarious fun.
REVISED
The company reached out to me and sent out a new drone. They were very kind and very pleasant. We look forward to playing with the new one. I really appreciate them taking the time to make things right with their customers.

After I reviewed it negatively they immediately sent another replacement. It at least is flying, but I am sure it will not last long. Device is pretty flimsy and temperamental. Not sure that it's worth even $30. Probably worth spending a bit more and getting something of decent quality.
I see lots of complaints battery, breaking, etc but we just haven't seen that.
2 months owned, used everyday. Often 2 or 3 times in a day.
Still getting 5 min of use after 50 min of charging even though we leave it plugged in after charging done. Directions say to unplug after 50 min of charging or when the red light of the plug head turns off. Yeah, we don't do that. Still works and hasn't caught fire so that's good.
Comes with extra prop blades. Good thing too since they do fall off sometimes. Remember that the blade orientation is alternating.
Does a surprisingly good job of sensing walls and ceilings.
Surprisingly durable too. Older kid has been playing a game knocking it out of the air for the last month. Still ticking.
Bright red and green lights adding more fun in a dark room.
Original review: One of the propellers popped off after playing with it only 3 times and in under 1 hour. The charge doesn't last long. It's loud. The controls are spotty. It flys too high. The sensors don't detect walls very well. Maybe buy one that is a bit more quality if you want to impress your kids with this toy or want something quality for an adult to play with for a while.
Top reviews from other countries
1) the battery lasts over 5 minutes when fully charged, which is enough for having fun with kids. I have two kids (8yo and 4yo) and they absolutely love this drone.
2) it takes around half hour to fully charge the battery (it uses a standard USB A port, power adapters also work). It consumes around 3W of power while charging, until fully charged (then it stops consuming any power).
3) it comes with a USB power cable. The end that connects to the USB port lights up (red light) when the drone is fully charged, which is counter intuitive, note that there is no visual signs until the drone is fully charged. The end that connects to the drone doesn't fully insert, which leaves customers wondering if it's really charging or properly connected.
4) you should calibrate the drone before using it, the process is REALLY simple, takes a few seconds, it doesn't need anything other than the drone itself, and it's explained in the manual.
5) there are at least 3 sensors: one on one side of the drone, another on the opposite side, one at the bottom. I'm not sure there is a 4th sensor on the top (there is a LED light there though) because sometimes the drone stays pushing against the ceiling for a few seconds, which might indicate it doesn't sense the ceiling, not sure.
6) the plastic case is light and relatively soft, which helps in absorbing impacts when the drone falls, however it's not indestructible and you should expect some cracks here and there after a few days of intensive use, which shouldn't affect the usability.
7) the gaps in the case will let tiny fingers to reach inside (blades), so maybe it's not a good idea to let very young kids (<4yo) to grab it. That said, I don't believe the small plastic propellers would cause any serious harm, but I don't know.
8) do not play with the drone outdoors! As I mentioned above, the drone sometimes gets stuck pushing against the ceiling, so if outdoors it would likely fly very high and maybe away from your reach.
9) yes, it works fine even in low ceiling houses/condos and small living rooms, but of course the more space you have the funnier it will be.
10) you control the drone's altitude by placing or removing your hand (or another flat object) under the drone. You can somewhat direct the drone to where you want by putting your hand on the opposite side of the drone. That's all you can control.
11) the drone will shut down all its propellers if it hits anything, then it will obviously fall to the ground. It will also shut down if it's grabbed.
12) the drone will turn upright even if you throw or drop it upside down. Actually it's cool to watch it doing that.
It is a toy that is meant to be played with and detecting obstacles etc to prevent damage but the kids (9 and 5) played with it only 2 days to bring back a broken toy.
Not worth the price if it lasts only that long . Disappointed
