Are mini drones and toy drones the same?
The short answer to this question is… no. While many mini drones include the kind of advanced photo and navigation tech that larger camera drones have, toy drones are designed to be simple—easy for young or new flyers to use. That’s not to say that you will never find a toy drone with a camera. However, unlike mini drones intended for professional or advanced amateur use, toy drones for beginners will generally include less expensive components, making them a good choice for learning.
Toy drones also include their own perks, such as light-up features, that might appeal to recreational users. They can be the best drones for beginners and youngsters. Some models are made to mimic mini toy helicopters rather than the more common camera drone layout. In other words, the emphasis is often on the fun of navigating and watching the drone fly through the air rather than capturing aerial video footage or photographs.
Toy drones make great educational toys for kids, too. They can engage kids in ways that also challenge them and contribute to their skillsets and creativity. They are among the best STEM toys for kids as well as kids’ electronics that aim to inspire the next generation of scientists and innovators.
Setting up and using a toy drone
Setting up a toy drone is simple. Follow your drone manual’s instructions regarding assembling any parts, such as propellers. Install the appropriate batteries in the drone and the remote control, and you will be ready to get your new toy drone off the ground.
Before launching the new flying machine, look into drone flying tips and remember to talk to your child about how to use a remote-control drone responsibly. Always look up the local rules and regulations about drone use. There are many locations, such as national parks or private properties, that require a permit to fly a drone or simply do not allow it at all. Your child will also have to anticipate landscape features that may get in the way of communication between the remote and the drone—causing the drone to lose its signal and fall to the ground.
Flying a drone is a big responsibility and, with the right guidance, it is a good learning opportunity for your child. Drones allow children to hone their spatial awareness and remote navigation skills. And, toy drones with cameras can expand your child’s creative world. For future repairs or enhancements, consider any drone accessories you may want to have on hand, ensuring that your child can continue to explore new skills without interruption.
