The media could not be loaded.  This is a good fun little drone. You don't have to use the prop protection, but they do mean it can be bumped into things with no damage consequences. Takes about 10 minutes of setting up prior to first use, i.e., trimming, acquainting yourself with controls etc. Both my children (9 & 10) have been playing with it. By far the most popular pass time is to to flip it which is a neat trick. The on board camera works well when hooked up to a smart phone. It has 3 differing speeds with the fastest being really zippy. Control is second to none and V easy. You can fly it accurately anywhere (indoors). Doesn't like it outside as it is light and wind is an issue. Overall, this is a good fun little drone and has been played with a lot. Therefore, I would say it was a good value for the money. Downsides would be that the battery time is limited to about 5 mins if you have it constantly on the move at speed but it does come with 3 of them and they charge quickly in a USB. A++

Very good drone, easy to setup, use and fly. Love that a phone can be attached. It’s a good starter drone for anyone who wants to learn how to fly before going to the bigger models.One down side to this drone is that there is a slight delay between the camera and the drone controls whilst flying. It’s a delay of about a second.Despite the delay I would still recommend this drone to beginners.

I’ve had a couple of drones in the £100 - £150 price range and I found that this was loads more stress-free fun.Its tiny, literally fits in the palm of your hand. But, its surprising stable in the air (indoors anyway). The setup is super quick takes literally 3 seconds to switch on connect to the remote and then to setup the gyro and then you are off. The trim function gets it pretty stable very quick. takes of and lands in seconds. Control is easy and I got the hang of it very quickly, in no time I was flying around the room and then out the other room and down the corridor - see my video. It has little plastic bumpers which easily attach and then the drone simply bounces off the walls and furniture, crashed it multiple times and it is good to go straight away - very robust. Although I am sure it could break if you crashed it in an awkward spot but so far so good. Even confident to let little kids have a little go with it. There are 3 speed settings and when you get a bit more confident you can start to go quite fast and it manoeuvres with pretty good agility. It’s probably easier to control just watching it rather than looking at the video, but that is helpful if you go into other rooms and want to stay stood in one place. The video id surprisingly fine for a camera you can barely see. Looks like a tiny 1 mm hole on the front of the drone.Battery lasted exactly 6 minutes as advertised and the fact you get 3 is really good value for money, Also the battery is fully charged in exactly 30 mins. It comes with two USB chargers and so I can get all 3 batteries full charged in just 60 minutes, The USB chargers seemed a bit flimsy and I had to get the right angle for the charging light to come on with one of them. But even if one of them breaks, then you can still charge the 3 batteries in 90 minutes with just one charger.The APP which I downloaded connected straight away and never lost contact.Ok, here is where I had some real fun. I stuck my phone into a cheap VR headset I got for £5 in the charity shop. Wow, I stuck it on my head and I was able to fly around the room with FPV. The camera quality that close on the phone looked great and more stable than on my more expensive outdoor drone, which has a wobble effect on the video, this was does not. Even flew it up to the attic and back down whilst sat in the living room.No negatives apart from the flimsy charger which actually still works.I've not tried it outdoors yet.If you don’t have a VR headset, then you can get loads of fun out of the 'non camera' cheaper version, but for the extra £15 having the ability to do VR mode takes this mini drone to the next level.I started trying to set up an 'assault' course made out of benches, tables and chairs to improve my drone skills. Highly recommended and great fun for all ages.

The media could not be loaded.  This is the first drone that I have owned and so a complete novice at flying drones. It’s a fantastic bit of kit and as I have found with many unexpected encounters with walls and stairs in our house, fairly robust.I have attached the roll cage, which protects it very well and enables it to bounce off walls and so keep flying. The camera is a good picture and the interface with the phone is easy to pair and allows lots of features, like recording the footage or taking stills. I’m sure there are lots more features that also allow the control of the drone through the phone, but I have not yet attempted this.After a bit of practice I have managed to fly this around the house fairly competently, but tried in the garden and found it fairly tricky as the wind has an effect on its position and I just wasn’t fast enough to compensate for this.My daughter, who’s eleven also loves the drone, she picked up the controls and can fly it better than I, but I guess that’s kids eh.The three batteries work well, we managed to always keep one charging whilst flying and so gives almost continuous usage time, just land, swap the battery and off again. The batteries last about 6 minutes per charge, but only take about 10 minutes to charge, so just keep charging and swapping.The video quality is very good, stable picture and for £40.00 for the drone with all the batteries, its a bargain really.All in all, very pleased with the drone and I think a very good starter drone, that I can learn with and then when a bit more proficient graduate to something bigger….

Purchased for my son at Christmas. Played with it a lot at first and it was great. Just got it out a couple of days ago and it will not work. All hover and control function is lost so it just shoots up in the air and crashes back down again. Tried resetting it and swapping to phone controls but nothing makes any difference. Really disappointed.
