I was a little unsure what to expect with this drone - my experiences so far with drones have involved learning curves figuring out the control of and quirks of different ones. Some are really sensitive and flying can take a while to get accustomed to, which means it's not very conducive to using with smaller kids. THIS one - was one everyone could enjoy though. Simply using our hands to keep it flying around was a lot of fun - older kids could do more to guide it, while younger kids could participate with very little eye/hand coordination. Wish the charge lasted longer, but understand the trade off for the lightweight flight ability vs short battery life. Charging time was fairly short.
I'd like to give more of a review on longevity, but after I played with it for a while, I took it with me to get feedback from an assorted age group - they were having so much fun with it, I didn't have the heart to take it with me when I left. I will say, we crashed it fairly hard, often, without any real damage. As others have noted - remove the (tiny) screws when taking out of the box, otherwise you'll not be near as impressed. :)
Very easy to play with and use. It does have a bit of a high pitched whine but it is not intolerable. Although I haven’t timed it, it seems to run for about 7-10 minutes between charges; long enough to enjoy playing with it but not so long that the kids start to drive me crazy with it. You can direct the motion by placing your hand under it or in front of the sensors when it is flying but it does a good job of avoiding crashes on its own, in my living room with a vaulted ceiling. I don’t know how it would operate it’s low ceilings, and I definitely would not fly it outside. I’m pretty sure you would only get one opportunity to fly it outside before it disappears into the sky, since there is really no way to have any control over it remotely. Fun toy, worth the reasonable price.
I bought these for my grandsons, ages 11,8 and 5. They had a ball with them. Much better than sitting with a remote control. They are very interactive with lots of running around and laughing. The two oldest even learned how to toss it just right so it would fly into the others hands across the room. You do have to read the directions and calibrate them after charging. They can take some knocking around as the cage is flexible. They seem to hit the ceiling in my living room quite often, but I think this had something to do with the lighting ( recessed), as it skimmed right around my kitchen ceiling. I would never let these loose outside, you’d never see them again. Definitely the more room you have inside the better.
This drone is SO much fun and SO easy to use. My five y.o. son and ten y.o. daughter each have one. They are easy to get the hand of. They love playing with them, doing tricks, and playing “catch” with them. And they have been dropped, bumped, hit hundreds of times, and even taken away in the mouth of a dog, and they haven’t had one issue, not a scratch or dent! They last about 20 minutes on full on non-stop play and charge back up pretty quickly. I highly recommend this drone for little and big kids!
This thing is awesome for my 4 year old! Couldn't be happier with it. Honestly its fun I fly out around once in awhile while my son is at school. Only advice I have is just keep it inside the house. It has sensors so won't run into anything, we took it to the park and it just flew off over a lake out of sight. My son was hysterical and I never expected to see it again but lucked out finding it in shallow water on the other side of the lake. Still works! This is a must buy!
The grandchildren loved these things for about a day. Now they just sit around and never get used, but the do work and from an adult perspective, they are fascinating. I just wish they'd bring them out and let me play with them more often.
Very cool little toy. Lots of entertainment for everyone.. the box came damaged but the product was fine. Purchased for my nephews 7th birthday and was a huge hit for him and the 6 and 5 year old as well.
my two boys (5 and 7) love it and of course fight over it. it is very cool how you just control it with your hands. and still works after my youngest layed on top of it crushing it. i did have to pop one of the blades back on that popped off after that incident. but still works great and is fun to play with. (for adults too)
Our kids love these scoot drones. They are easy to handle and really fun. I like that they can bump into furniture without causing damage. I wish the battery lasted a little longer, but fortunately, they charge pretty quickly.
Oh my gosh! I am surprised this is still in stock. Love love love it. My grandson who is 7 fell in love with it. His 92 yo grandfather loves it too! Bought a bunch more. It is sooooo much fun.
Read all the directions first. The drone is screwed down to the pedestal that it is on. It feels delicate when trying to get it out of the box, but once you get the drone out, it was so easy to charge, calibrate and let it fly. Very durable, lots of fun for not only kids but adults too. It really can take a beating. We had a great time playing with it on christmas.
