I bought 2 of these for my sons for Christmas (11 and 8). It’s been less than 24 hours since the toy came out of the box, and on one of them the propeller broke in half so it will no longer fly, it just hovers about 2 inches off of the ground. On the second toy the plastic frame around the propeller is already cracked, so I expect it will be breaking soon as well. For 24 hours, it was as a hit, now I expect in a few days it will end up in the trash.

Grandma bought two of these for the grandchildren and they are definitely the hit this Christmas. All the kids (ages 7-9) are able to fly them with ease. Some of the kids can control them quite well and fly between the rooms. They’ve crashed many times and have even been batted from the sky by the younger cousins — all without any breakage so far.

We didn’t even have the pleasure of breaking ours – it won’t even lift off for its maiden flight. It simply whirs and tips over. Even if it had lifted off, the deign is such that the rotors easily get jammed inside the bizarre frame constructed around them, and this would obviously lead to breakage. In short, total garbage, don’t buy.

While these are not durable toys, ours works very well. Even my husband was impressed with how well it flies. So far, only my husband has flown it, because our kids are too young. They love watching it fly around the living room. I was hesitant to purchase this, but I’m very impressed with this toy.

Normally I check reviews before I buy things but my son saw it (and now I know why it was on clearence) and I knew I had to get it for him. I bought this for my six year old. It had a couple of great flights on Christmas day but never worked again. We charge it over night. It turns on but once it gets up (about an inch off the ground), it comes back down and won’t turn back on until another 24 hours of re-charging. I am taking it back! I hope they accept it with no package!
