Customers are saying

Customers find value in the AR.Drone 2.0 Elite Quadricopter's ease of use and camera quality, frequently citing it as fun and a good value for the price. However, concerns exist regarding battery life and flight time, with some users also noting challenges related to range, control in windy conditions, and wind resistance. The drone's performance in windy conditions is a recurring negative point. Improvements in these areas would enhance the overall user experience.

    Too short a battery time to fully enjoy it. Recommend spending some more money to buy a drone with better and longer battery life after a full charge.

    App downloaded to phone very quickly and controlling drone so much fun. Had purchased another drone but could not operate without crashing. This was definately worth the money

    This is an awesome drone for many age ranges. Can be used indoors or out. Very intuitive and has many excellent features that you only find on much more expensive drones.

    The item is not what I expected. Battery don't last and the item is way too fragile. I was able to use it only on once. Waste of money for real

    Purchased this as a gift for a giveaway for work. It was such a huge hit that we ordered another one for a different giveaway. Great price for a starter drone.

    This came out of the box and except for the charging of the new battery it did everything it said it would. My 3 yr old niece is a better pilot than me.

    I wish this worked better. WiFi kept disconnecting, breaks easily. Fairly hard to control. I wish I could make it work like the videos show. Customer service told me to take it somewhere away from everything, yet their video shows it flying flawlessly in a shopping mall. Steer clear from this.

    I ordered one of these for my son for Christmas after reading some reviews. I was a little surprised that it was shipped in its own package, being what it is. Well, one of the motors didn't work. OK, things happen. Surprisingly, Parrot customer service was available on Christmas Day. Explained the problem, was told I would get an email with return shipping instructions and a label. Got the email THREE DAYS later. Shipped the drone back to them the next morning. Didn't get the replacement drone until late evening January 19th - THREE WEEKS LATER. Well, I paid for a new drone, got a refurbished drone as a replacement. And guess what? IT DOESN'T WORK EITHER! And when I call customer service, I get a recording saying that I'm calling outside of normal business hours, call back MONDAY morning. And the website has no email contact information for customer service.

    If it worked it would have been cool. But my mom returned it before I could get the geek squad to help.

    It was a good drone but just didn’t seem like it would hold up with the foam body.

    The bumper system on this makes it a great starter drone. Has nice flight in short space.
