My 9 year old son really likes this micro drone. He's had considerable success with it compared to others he's had. We really need a place to buy spare propellers.
This drone is exactly what it says it is. I had so much fun flying it and once you get the hang of it it will become your best friend. The only issue I've encountered is the battery life. It's a little short, but doesn't take much time to charge.
This is a very cool drone. The reason I only gave 3 stars is that it is not very durable. You can rest assured w will be out in 1 week. The advanced mode on this thing is really cool. If you want a cool little nano drone that's good for the price, get the Sky Viper Nano Drone.
In less than 1 day of use it crashed and when it happened all the blades stopped spinning except 1. THIS ONE blade wouldn't stop spinning . Even if I switched the drone and the remote control to the off position. Nothing will stop it. It got very, very hot. We ended up taking him outside until he died.

Their altitude control and lateral stability were actually very, very good for a $20 drone. HOWEVER, even though our kids were pretty good pilots, accidents are inevitable. After about 60 minutes of flight, one of the sons broke and the on/off switch broke (the housing cracked and the plastic slide fell out). About 30 minutes into the…
