Ive Had many small and large drones in my life. Im grateful that most of them have a common programing making it easy to jump from one to another. Propel does this well. I got the batwing drone for my 5 year old. I loved that they put bumpers on this drone. I dont care if your a pro or a newbie, Bumpers are great. to extend the life of the drone and the propellers. It has a built in camera which i like alot. my son loves to make little movies chasing the cat and chasing me. Its been a fun experience making short movies with him. It opened up a creative outlet for him. I think its a great drone by a pro company.

I love this since it's Batman related, it is a little cheap though but it's fun and easy to fly, and the camera is decent for the price.

The controls were hard to use, once it was going it was hard to not crash it. Propellers break easily even with the guards on them. Contacted the company that made the product to ask about purchasing additional propellers, but was told that it came with extras which we had already used and broken. Wrote back to let them know that those were also broken and no response to get new propellers.

I’m a big batman fan so it’s just another item to add to my collection. Only downfall is if you bump it next to something, the clear wings that make it fly break easily! I already used up all the extra wings it comes with. No clue where to buy extra ones either.

I love this thing! I love anything Batman. But it is very hard to control at first. It takes a lot of practice. The propellers break very easy. BE VERY CAREFUL!. Trying to contact Propel company is near impossible. Picture looks great.

Battery charge is decent with not a long time to recharge. The camera's video feed is clear and the controls a not too difficult to pickup. But I would advise if letting someone under 10 fly it solo.

Purchased this drone as a present for my SO and it works great. I mean, I'm a little disappointed with the fact that the flight time is so short but you can't expect much from a cheap drone. It looks really well made and flies much better than any other mini drone I've flown. I would probably say that this is not worth the money for an experienced and expert drone pilot, but for beginners and batman lovers it's fantastic

I bought 5 of these for family members. Each one said the controls were very sensitive and was breakable. Every time it landed, no matter how soft, pieces would pop off.

I broke all the propellers starting it up because we tried to launch it in the house and away it went. I had to grab it from hitting my kids in the head. I am super excited to use it when the weather warms up but until then I am still impressed with the features.
You can apparently get new propellers at no cost from the vendor. Still working on that part.

Bad drone

This batwing with HD camera was purchased as a Christmas gift for my brother. He loved the idea of a batwing drone too bad it near worked properly. Even with the correction on the controller it would near hover or stay like it explained in the instructions. How are you suppose to get videos of anything. I bought this back in 10/27/17 and when I went to return and explained it was a gift for Christmas they told me it was out of my elite return day so they couldn't do anything for me even thought it's a defective product. I guess I will not buy anything that is on clearance from bestbuy anymore. Good price bad product. I know for next time not to buy from bestbuy.

My boys really like it but the one thing we do not like is that the blades tend to break very very easily. I need to get more already and they just opened it a couple of days ago.

Looks great and very powerful...too powerful for novice flyers. Broke all but two propellers. Even the extras.
