My son has gone through many helicopters and they all end up breaking quickly, and don't handle well. Most of those were in the $30 range. Although this is twice as much, it is well worth it. Controls work well, it does tricks, has protective strips around the blades, seems sturdy. Only complaint is battery life. I haven't timed it but seems like we haven't gotten more than 5 minutes off any full charge.

Good entry into the Drone market. This one is at the low end, as i saw many that were in the price range of a few hundred dollars whereas this one was about $60. I got the last one on the shelf when i purchased it so it must have been a popular one. This one does what is expected and is good for kids and adults alike. It is not hard to operate. It has a nice color scheme and has nice flying characteristics. It is a bit slow. It doesn't have an LED so u can't fly it at night! Prop guard is nice and steady and has nice landing feet.
