Small, Mighty and a Little Stubborn
I bought this little drone for my son’s 8th birthday, and I’ll admit I was hesitant. Drones often seem like a gamble either they’re too fragile, ridiculously complicated, or stop working after a few flights. Thankfully, this one turned out to be a pleasant surprise.Let’s start with the controller: it’s simple, intuitive, and designed like an Xbox or Nintendo controller, so it feels familiar right out of the box. That was a huge win no steep learning curve here. The drone comes with two batteries, each lasting about 10–15 minutes, which I’d say is fair given its size.Speaking of size, this thing is small about 8x10cm and comes with four spare propellers that are easy to replace. We purposely chose a small drone so my son could fly it indoors without causing chaos. Mission accomplished! It’s been zipping around the house, tackling landing pad challenges, stair flights, and all sorts of wild kid experiments without breaking a sweat or anything else. The RGB lights? A fun touch, especially during evening flights.Now, durability. This drone has taken its fair share of crashes, tumbles, and general 8 year old abuse, and it’s still going strong. It’s practically the Chuck Norris of toy drones.That said, it’s not perfect. Whoever designed the battery compartment clearly wanted to test the limits of human patience. Getting the batteries out is like prying a bone from a dog’s mouth it’s unnecessarily difficult. I’ve had to resort to long-nose pliers just to extract them, which is far from ideal (and definitely not something a child can do). If the manufacturers are reading this, please revisit this design flaw.Another thing: it would be nice to have the option to buy extra batteries. With two, you’re looking at just under 30 minutes of flight time, which is decent, but an extra battery or two would really extend the fun.All in all, this is a great drone for kids. It’s durable, easy to use, and perfect for indoor adventures. Just be prepared to wrestle with the battery compartment every now and then. At this price point, though, it’s hard to complain too much.Oh, and I would’ve added a video to this review, but sadly, I don’t get paid for these things!Rating: 4 out of 5.

So far so good!
Granddaughter age 7 is delighted with it. So far it appears very robust, the battery life is good and having a second battery is a benefit.

Why won’t it fly upwards?
Grandson enjoyed playing with this drone but it has not lasted a month. It still lights up & the remote is in contact but it just wants to fly downwards – can’t get any lift. Is there an answer?

These are quite fun. I bought this one as it came with two drones which would let me and my daughter fly them together (or crash them into the wall together). It is nice that they come with a couple extra batteries and that you can charge the batteries using their micro usb cable and a standard wall adapter. The batteries charge pretty quick. I don’t think they really have the 30 minute flight time, but they do seem to fly for a good while. We haven’t tried the battle mode as one of the drones was acting funny when I took it out of the box and tried to fly it. I reached out to the customer service email in the manual and they were super quick to help out. They asked me for my order number and a video of what the drone was doing. They then sent a replacement. I haven’t received the replacement yet, which is okay as my daughter can still fly the other one around. The drones themselves seem to be built pretty good for the price. The plastic is solid but flexible, which helps when you made an uncontrolled landing. They come with extra propellers, but being as protected as they are, I am not sure when you would need to replace a prop.

My son wrote the review below, he loves the drone so much.”After testing these drones many times, I have seen many great things about this product, its durability, it’s easy to control, and many other great things. I will talk about why these make this product so great because honestly, the few days i have tested it, i loved using it and had lots of fun with it. I think other people will love this product too. So here’s my take on this product.Firstly, i think the protection on this thing is mind blowing, when i first got this product, i thought the moment it would hit a wall, it would break, but no, every single time i have smacked it on a wall, or it got stuck in a crevasse, it always survived and took no damage whatsoever. I think whoever built his product did a great job protecting the blades. They added a plastic dome around the blades, these plastic domes did not affect the drones flying ability, and it protected the blades really well, And the fact they gave me extra blades was great. I think they did a great job on protecting the drone in many ways, and this drone will probably last you a long time.Second, this drone is really easy to assemble and learn how to play. In the guide I think they did a really good job of explaining how the drone works, and how to fly it. The guide also did a good job explaining the special buttons on the controller. There are 8 special buttons for the drone, there is a button for adjusting the speed, landing your drone, reversing your controls, an emergency stop button, a button to flip your drone, a spinning button, and a hovering button. Now there’s one last one, and this one i want to explain a little bit, it’s the firing button. Now on the drone there is a white light on the front and a red light on the back, you always want the red light facing you to control the drone better (just saying), the white light is the “gun”, you can use it to fire at other drones and “kill them”, it’s a really cool way of using drones to fight other drones, and i think that’s a cool concept they added to the drone. I think that the creators did a great job of making it easy to use the drone, and did a great job with the special buttons, like the flip button and the firing button for the “gun”.Lastly, I want to talk about its battery life, because I think the battery life needs a little improvement. On average the battery life lasts from about 20-30 minutes at most, and I think that is too little for a drone like this, but they do give you four batteries to make up for this. So i think if they want to improve the drone, i think they should improve the battery life so it lasts longer, so that way people don’t have to change its battery every 20-30 minutes.So in conclusion, this product has amazed me a lot, from its durability to its fantastic guide. I think the creators of this product really put a lot of effort into the drone, but in the future, they should improve the battery life. But this is just my opinion, if you do buy this drone, i hope you have a good time having fun with it, cause i did.”
