Contixo - Mini Light Up Drone with Remote Controller - Blue

My kids love this drone! I call it an entry level drone because it's so easy to use, it doesn't require the prep maneuvers that more advanced drones do before taking off, and there aren't all sorts of data to pay attention to, just turn on the power - hit the one button to take off - and push the joystick. Of course I would recommend doing a calibration before takeoff, which goes a long way towards a smooth flight. It's perfect for my six year old to handle, and although this company says this product is suitable for ages eight and up, I think it's something that younger children could learn to do as well, and the paddles are protected by a ring of sturdy plastic, so I'm not worried about it hurting the kids. Both of my kids love the lights on it, their favorite part was going out on the rooftop at night and having the drone turn on the spinning feature and then letting it dance, the lighting effects at night are really great. My favorite thing about the drone itself is that it comes with two rechargeable batteries, enough for a 15+ minute flight, and it charges very quickly. I would definitely recommend this product for kids who want to get into drones but don't want to spend too much.

This drone is awesome for kids learning to fly a drone for the first time. It's got obstacle avoidance on by default, so it'll back away when it gets too close to something. And if it does hit something by chance, it's protected by sturdy guards on all four sides, so it's basically crash proof. It's perfect for indoor flying. If you take it outside, just keep it low to avoid any wind carrying it away. The cool lights on it are a huge hit, my kids love flying it in the dark, with the lights flashing like little stars! Plus, it can do flips in the air, which makes it feel like a little fairy dancing around. I should've bought two from the start because my kids fight over it every time! Just ordered another one so they each have their own.

This was a nice surprise! I was hesitant at first due to the low price—I worried it might break easily. But since the company offered a one-year warranty, I decided to give it a try. When I received it, I was surprised by how sturdy it looked, and it’s held up really well. My son has been playing with it daily , and it’s still going strong. It has four durable guards and an obstacle avoidance feature, which keeps it from getting damaged even if it bumps into things. Plus, it comes with extra propellers, so we can replace them ourselves if needed. The battery doesn’t last super long, but they provide two batteries, which is enough to keep the fun going, and they charge pretty quickly. It’s very easy to fly—no complex skills needed—and my son picked it up right away. Overall, really happy with this purchase!
