It is hard to keep stable and straight. Trying to fly this can get frustrating so if you don't have patience don't get it.

The response between remote and drone seems delayed and that can be problematic in outdoor scenarios. Good starter drone.

We bought this for our kid and she loves it but the battery doesn't last very long at all which is frustrating. Whilst it's fairly crash resistant it took her a month to destroy it completely, getting stuff wrapped around the propellers. It's pretty difficult to fly. It was fun whilst it lasted.

Looks great but the screw for the battery storage is so tiny and cheap that when i tried to use my smallest screwdriver (almost as small as eyeglass one) the screw stripped like it was pudding. Now have to ask father to drill it out and it will have to be held together with duct tape. Lame

For one of her kids to be able to learn how to use a drone. Pretty resilient little bugger! Short battery life but that's the price you pay for something so small. Our child is getting used to the controls as a nine-year-old so that later on in life they can operate a larger size one.

The neo drone is alot of fun just takes a little practice. Steady slow adjustments are key and the trim needs to be fixed often. The battery also doesnt last very long and can be frustrating when trying to master flight but once you get it its perfect for messing around the house.

I bought this for kids to play around with it while I flew my Mavic. However this thing is EXTREMELY hard to control even for adults, difficulty hovering, battery life is terrible and not worth the money I spent.

I asked my fourteen-year-old daughter what she thought of her birthday present, it being this Neo drone rc mini drone. She said it is funny and fun. I asked her if it was easy to fly and she said sort of but that's what makes it funny. She likes it. It seems well-built enough to take a beating from a newbie drone pilot.

The unit was very small and it took a lot of trial and error to get it to work. The instructions are small and the print is tiny. As an introductory toy for a teenager it would be suitable. But for a kid it is too small to have value without a parent.
