I bought 3 of these for my family for Christmas. 1 of them never had a successful flight. 2 of them wouldnt fly mor than 3 inches off the ground.. However I was able to fly one for about 2 minutes then after that it wouldn't fly correctly.. Very disappointing.

Good little drone for the little ones to play with while I play with my DJI! Takes some time to get used to the characteristics of it but when you do get used to it you can have a lot of fun with it.

The plastic shields around the propellers seem to pop off very easily, so you have to secure them after every crash landing. The battery doesn't last very long, but it is fun while it lasts. Do NOT fly it around anyone with long hair, trust me!

I bought this drone for my daughter to learn how to fly one. It's great to learn how to fly a drone manual which is how this one flies. It is touchy on altitude but other than that it's a fun little toy for her we got it on sale for $20.

We bought this for our 7 year old grandson as a Christmas present, the control is sensitive and the drone took off out of control with the slightest touch. I would recommend to someone with more patients and control with the fingers.

I purchased this mini drone as a tool to practice flying and maneuvering before committing to a larger drone. Great buy!...with only 1 exception.
I wished they had replacement batteries to swap out for prolonged flight time.

The remote control is made from cheap plastic and the battery door is protected by a very small Phillips screw. You really need an eye glass screw driver kit to open the battery door. The screw is cheap and strips easily even with the finest head screw driver.

I bought this for my 14 YO nephew for Christmas. He loves it, but the battery life is really short lived. Also not recommended around long haired pets or people since it is easily tangled in the hair if it gets too close.

This drone controls great. it's very fast and is very agile. I was surprised at how well it hovers. The only downside is the battery life, it sits around 6-7 minutes flying

This is NOT made for kids. My 10 year old daughter used this about a week and it was NOT repairable. I should have spent a little more money for a better one.

Pretty cool little flyer

This little quadcopter is a good little flyer. But just like all the nanos, the battery only last for about 5 to 6 minutes depending on how hard you push it. The battery only takes about 25 to 30 minutes to charge back up, so that's not too bad. The LED's are bright, it is quiet, it has 3 speeds and the yaw changes with increased speeds. Very nice. It comes extra props but if you keep the prop guards on they will be protected from crashes. They can be removed if you are a more experienced flyer. The only thing I don't like is how you have to fight to hold the altitude as it does not have altitude hold. It just takes a little practice. Only 4 stars but still, a good little flyer.

The product works great and is very fun to play with. Only complaint is the battery life is a bit short at 6-7 minutes. The re-charge time is fast however and it is a good buy for this price.
