Is this good for 7 or 8 year old?

It depends on their skill level...it would be tough to fly if they have never flown a heli before...if it is their first time I would start with something like the Syma S107.

Thats a tough one IMO, its made of light plastic so it's safe in that aspect but the blades do spin quite fast. Would really only be a problem if it were to hit one of his eyes. It does take some practice and patience to fly correctly. With out trying to sound rude, it's possible the child may either break the item in a short period of time or lose patience trying to get to fly right. It really depends on the child and thier capabilities at that particular age. I hope this helped!

probably so....although it is a 4 channel copter, with single propeller..it is a little more difficult to fly than 3 channel copters...if they have no experience in flying, then you MIGHT want to go with a 3 channel, until more experience is gained in flying.

Only if they have experience with coaxial copters and want to move up, its an excelent copter to move up to cause its still small enough to fly inside without damaging to much stuff when its crashed.

It worked perfectly for my 7 year old so I would think it would work well for a 6 year old too. :-D

I think an 8-year old will not be as impressed with this as a 5-year old (my daughter's age). The radio has the voice-changing features, which my whole family (parents included) got a kick out of; but that might be the only feature that entices an 8-year old to play with it.

It would be perfect for an 8 year old. Four is about as young as I would start if you wanted the child to work it herself. The adults hve enjoyed it also. I would buy this again and it has held up really well. Hope this helps.

I bought it for a 3 year old and it was perfect for him, it might be small for a seven year old

I think a 7 year old girl may like it more than a 7 year old boy. My son loved it when he was younger but is 5 now and rarely plays with it.

I would say it is good for 2/3-8 year olds. My girls are 2 and 4 and love it.

The box says ages 4 to 99. It depends on what a kid is into, I think it's be great for an eight year old.

Per the manufacturer, this is recommended for ages 3 - 8. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

I believe this is more appropriate for younger children. I bought it for my 2 & 5 year olds last year. They loved it, but the now-6 year old only has slight interest in it by now. Also, the average 8 year old might find the size a little small (but most kitchenettes I've seen in the stores are all about this size and age level).

Depends. There are very small peices, so it might be hard for 7 year olds, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

I just bought it for my 7 year old (soon to be 8). Her friend, also 7 has had one for awhile. Hope that helps.

I think it would be fine for a typical 8 year old, as long as some presets are made with the lenses. Some of the controls are quite delicate, so training would be required.

I bought it for my 11 year old. But, if you can follow simple directions, it can be used by 8 year olds to learn the basics and for fun. For more in depth knowledge of the principles and the electronics, it can be useful for teenagers.

I bought these for a classroom of 5-6 year olds and it was appropriate for that age group. I think a 7-8 year old might have fun with it but may not be challenging

My grandson is 7 and is perfect for him, but he is not a big kid, I will say 6 to 8 years old

Yes for up to about an 8 year old. Gave as a gift don't have it here to measure. Hope that helps.
