    I would not recommend this product

    I would not recommend this product primarily because of the 7 minute battery life and the unavailability of batteries through Best Buy and to manufacturer. It takes so so photos and difficult to orient the camera in flight to take photos. The trim controls are not very precise.

    Got this as an early gift and like it a lot. Have only had small crummy helicopters from the mall, and they always broke after the first day. This one seems much better quality and was easy to use right out of the box.

    Battery life, Flight time

    Rated 2 out of 5 stars

    Very Easy to control but only flight for 7 min

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The description of this product is misleading, the quad copter is big, nice, cute, stable, very easy to flight but the issue is that it only flies for 7 minutes and battery takes 75 minutes or more to fully charge, this is unacceptable for the price, most likely I will be returning mine and buying a $50 dollar quad copter that does the same. Also the LCD screen is only for the controls command not to actually see what is being recorder through the camera.

    Syma X5C clone

    This is a clone of the Syma X5C which can be had for about 1/3 the price. Not a bad drone, but ridiculously over-priced.

    The item I received was slightly different than what is advertised on the website. No mention of it being the Dronium TWO ??? Is there a difference? Was purchased as a gift with special delivery requests but item was delivered in the box the drone is packed in. So much for the surprise! :(

    First drone we have bought! Works great. A little hard to control at first, but once you get used to it it flies great! Battery lasts for a little while but recommend trying to buy a second battery if you want endless amounts of fun!

    It's ok

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's a great starter drone. But I would not recommend to anyone who wants something long lasting. Battery life is terrible, and after two days, the wires on the battery were touchy. Had problems charging it, turning it on, and it kept turning off in flight because of faulty wires on the battery

    Good indoor drone

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I received this product for Christmas and it was an exceptional indoor and outdoor drone. But for the price it is terrible; it has no low battery warning so when the battery dies there isn't any warning that it will just fall out of the sky. Also this isn't a direct drive prop so movements are sluggish and not precise. For the price just build your own. If you want a drone like this consider the Syma X5C on Amazon which is half the price and gives a low battery warning.

    This is a great drone for a beginner to learn but it also has a lot of features to use as you develop your skill. Very durable product!

    Terrible

    This thing is a terrible, cheap imitation of much more expensive competing drones. Truly awful from top to bottom. Highly recommend against this cheap imitation.

    Worked for just 2 minutes

    Got a dronium 2 for Christmas. Could not use as it did not come with charging cable. Went to Best Buy and exchanged it. The new one worked for 2 minutes and went brain dead. With tax, this is a $160 dollar toy. Worthless thing it is indeed.
