    My son got this for his bday. He really loves it but he's not happy with the battery life. Only last 10min or so...depending on if u drive it or fly it. He just wishes the battery was longer.

    Flies great even after a couple of bumps and crashes. The flight time is not enough to enjoy drone. Either have another batter on standby or have another helicopter available. The charge time is too long for the limited flight time for this drone. When Airborne it's great!

    Fun drone, programmed with flips and rolls. Takes some user experience with controls prior to flying outside. Very durable, very very very short battery life. 8 minutes

    This has a lot of potential. Set up was quick, even though they could have provided a better user manual that went more into depth. It takes a little getting used to for flying. It's all touch controls using your phone, so it's not very precise flying. I do like the fact that it'll hover in place even when your fingers aren't on the controls. My biggest complaint though is the battery life. Only 6-8 minutes of flying time, if even that. It takes 1.5 hours to recharge. Not very good in my opinion. If the battery life and recharge time could be improved, I would be much happier.

    Tiny pieces fall off in crashes and get lost. Battery life is horrible. Tech support had me bend battery contacts. Helped some, but they spring back with crashes. Propellers are durable, but are getting damage.

    I gave this as a gift to my husband and he loved it. The only down fall is the battery hold charged for only eight minutes.

    I bought this for my future son-in-law and I've never seen someone have so much fun with this drone. Easy to put together, easy to use and very durable for the number of crashes it's already endured. This is a great starter drone to learn how to fly and land it.

    I had a lot of fun with this toy. I could take video with the cam on the unit. It would go very high. I did not like the fact that you can only use it for a few minutes and its very fragile. Had to exchange it 2 times

    This drone is small, but has a lot of power. It is super easy to use for a person of any age. My teenage daughter received this as a gift for Christmas. She loves her parrot-drone. I think everyone young and old waited for their chance to try it out Christmas Day.

    Best quadcopter I have tried so far out of 3. Easy to setup and use too. Do yourself a favor and set the free software to "Joypad" for better and easier control. DO NOT TAKE OUTSIDE if there is even a slight breeze! A bit of breeze took mine into a climb of about 40ft that I could do nothing about. I had to wait for the battery to die before it came back down. Great to use indoors though and lots of fun.

    Super fun drone, the jumping thing was quite effective at startling people...but, quite frankly it has a major design flaw. The spring action that loads the drone into jumping position is pretty cheaply made, just a circle of plastic on the inside with a locking mechanism. Because of the strain of holding it in the lock position, the plastic breaks pretty easily. Not a big deal if you're good with strips of aluminum and super glue, but kind of a hassle to fix, and it broke after just a few days. Hoping our Red & Green patch job will hold. Otherwise, pretty fun to play with, when it's not busted.

    Lots of great features for the price. easy to use and control via the bluetooth/ phone interface. The one-touch "stunt" buttons are great and it can take a bit of a beating.

    Got this as a present for my 8 year old. He loves it and loves doing the different tricks that are preprogammed in. Truthfully great for grown ups as well. Pictures aren't amazing, but definitely a good start for beginning droners...
