Flies longer than we wanted to fly it

Took it to the beach. Had fun with it. When we were done, we tied to to a life guard station and let it fly all it wanted.

It's ok. But $65 for something that Flys for less than 5min. I bought Somthing for 12 dollars and Flys better than this one. And it takes a long time to charge this one. Like one hour. To fly 5 min

Son really loves flying it.  Should be more fun once weather breaks and we can take it outside.

This is my first experience flying a drone and it does take some time to feel very comfortable with the controls. This drone moves very quickly and it is tough to keep it in the air when you first start out. It is fun to use as a toy but the fact that you only get a few minutes of flight before you need to recharge it does take some of the fun away. It is a cool little toy, but probably not something that will get a ton of reuse by my kids.

The copter arrived in time and in good shape, appeared to be a high quality unit. We read the instructions and charged the batteries for 2 days. We installed new batteries in the control unit and then "aligned" the frequencies. We took the copter outside in a field to fly it the first time so we didn't run it into anything and break it. It took off and hovered flawlessly, it was great, it then started to rise for no understandable reason, we could not stop the rise. The copter was uncontrollable no matter what we did although it was stable, it continued to rise, went over some trees and went to parts unknown, we looked for two hours with no luck, it was fun while it lasted (about 2 minutes). I am not sure if this was human error, I am an electronics engineer, I am guessing another signal somewhere (possibly power lines?) was stronger, but the copter lived a mighty short life!

In short, the drone is not stable enough to fly. I have a number of RC planes and helicopters. The plan with this purchase was to give my son something a bit larger than his small copters to fly. Inside or outside, the moment it gets 2 inches in the air it loses stability and crashes/flips over.

Ok, so as a pilot and someone who likes RC planes and helicopters, I was fully prepared to trash this product.  No way it flies well and can be controlled, but my 8 year old daughter was begging me for it.

I'm actually shocked at how well it flies.  It's fragile, although with the wrecks we've had so far, it's still fine.  I had to beef up where the tail attaches with some tape, and it tends to pull to the right, but it's fairly simple to compensate for it.  The damn thing actually flies like a bird.  My 8 year old can actually fly it pretty well.  You can even control altitude pretty well with the throttle (for lack of a better term).  I like it so much, I may actually buy another so we can fly them together!

4 Stars because of the short flight time. You only have about 7 minutes of fun when you fly it, and then have to put it on the charger for an hour. For the 60 dollar deal its definitely worth it. Not sure about the 100 dollars.

Wheels are very loose on their axles. They have a TON of camber. I had to remedy that with a little teflon tape. The plane flys pretty good for a diff thrust. It's not made to fly in much wind. None of these toy grades are. It's doesn't transition well from ground to air unless you are on a very even surface. Do not expect to take off from grass. This is great for those who are modders and home builders like me. 2.4 gz gear is going to be nice in one of my home builds. Yup, I'm still playing with toy grade even though a fly 100 sized planes.

I have tried to fly several times in winds 12-18mph with no real results.  It goes up for a few seconds, but needs lots of wind to stay up.  I had one sucessfull flight in a parking lot with winds 23-30 mph which was a lot of fun, but I was by myself and had no way to keep it on the ground when it was time to pack up and head home.  The short strings connected to the kite are actually quite long and tangle easily.  The long lines are very heavy and weigh the kite down a lot.

Harder to learn to control well than they would have you believe, even without any wind but, it can be done. It has been a lot of fun for the money. Do get extra batteries and a charger that will charge 2 or 3 at once. It's not worth driving out of the city for ten minutes flight time, less in wind or doing stunts. Just be sure to let the motors cool between flights.

This is way more fun to fly if you have a large indoor place to fly it because a slight breeze really affects it's control. It flys ok out of the box but it needs some adjustments to make it fly forward better. If your willing to do a little tinkering this is a great heli to fly if your not quite ready for a 4 or six channel, but are bored with 3 channel coaxial copters. This one is pretty tough I've crashed it many times and it has only broke once, it was the inner shaft that broke so order an extra one.

Both my Brother in Law and Husband flew their drone (Christmas Presents) in to trees the first time they used them because they said the controls are hard to maneuver.  May have helped to read the instructions first.  They are both out of trees and back in to practice now!?!?!?!?!

Works nicely indoors, but I lost it on my second flight outside.
My wife got me this drone for Christmas 2015. It flys quite nicely indoors with the training wheels attached. It took pictures of the carpet, although a little fuzzy, it was kind of dark in the room.
Which lead me to take it outside to take a picture of our house and driveway.  I removed the training wheels, set it down of a fairly flat spot of our icy driveway, compact snow and ice, quite level where I set it down, and hit the takeoff button on my Samsung tablet. The drone shot straight up in the air about 100 feet, quite quickly, out of range of the Bluetooth on my tablet and hovered. My tablet was saying 'trying to reconnect'. It didn't. The gentle breeze pushed it over the tops of our pine trees out of sight.  I spent 3 hours with a friend's help and snow shoes looking for it. It either went a lot further than we looked or is hung up on a branch in one of the trees.
Now I'm guessing I am to blame for losing this to the skies. I should have left the wheels on for a test flight outdoors. I was thinking a longer flight with less weight so I removed the wheels.
But... I am thinking, if the drone loses Bluetooth signal it should CUT POWER TO THE ROTORS INSTANTLY instead of letting it hover and float away. 1 star deducted because of no fail-safe feature. Parrot? Any reasons it flew away?

It's alright but it would sure be nice if it would fly for more than five minutes! In fact I don't think it has even lasted that long. More like 2 or 3 minutes! I have noticed one cool thing, my cat loves the little bugger. She won't leave it alone!

It flies, but the response is not good. It would not react to commands. Also too small to control.

This is a pretty cool little RC Helicopter. You'll probably get to fly it with a full charge for 30 to 45 minutes. It is fairly stable in the air, just be sure to have around 20 feet square area to fly it in order to learn and adjust the turning if needed with the tuning knob on the controller. It is not extremely delicate, but be careful anyways not to get it so high that it loses communication with the controller (possible crash). I have flown it around 12 to 20 feet up and away - that's about as far as I could fly it before it seemed to lose communication with the controller and would fall. It's a fun toy though!
