This is a great drone and very easy to fly, and with the fly pad you really enjoy flying the drone. You get like 5 to 6 min fly time and I think is very easy to control, very stable when hovering, lots of fun if you have extra batteries

Got the kids a couple of these for Christmas. Couldn't resist a quad that shoots! Initial impression is good, not great. Design and construction, with one exception, are great. One of the springs came loose on a cannon after about 10 shots. The spring is what fires the cannon, so it's dead. The attachment point is hidden in the middle of the tiny housing, so I can't put it back on. Will see how good customer service is... Flying these is fun. The grapple works well. However, controls are pretty sluggish and unresponsive. It's a good thing for beginners, not so much for experienced pilots. Even with the pitch and elevation opened up, the yaw is painfully slow. The quad itself feels well built, with decent power. It's capable of doing flips and rolls, but only through preprogrammed buttons. Very forgiving - altitude holds well, leveling is quick. Automated controls actually better than user controls. Battery life is short, and not upgradeable. Parrot doesn't use standard batteries. You are stuck with using stock only. These are fun to play around with inside, grabbing and shooting things. I dont think these are suitable for outdoors. They aren't acrobatic, and too heavy for the little batteries they use. For the price, you can get a quad that flies far better than these, just not one that shoots!

Customers admire the MAMBO Quadcopter's ease of use and stability, frequently praising its user-friendly design and ability to withstand crashes. However, some users express concerns regarding the camera quality and short battery life, suggesting improvements in these areas. The small size is also noted, impacting outdoor flight performance for some. While many find it a good value, longer flight times are desired by several users.
