Hand Operated Drones for Kids or Adult - Interactive Infrared Induction Indoor Helicopter Ball with 360° Rotating and Shinning LED Lights,Hand-Controlled Flying Ball Toys for 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Years

We have a drone like this from a different brand and my kids and I LOVE it.That, however, was not the case with this model.We seem to have received the attack version of toy drones with this purchase. I can still recall the joy on my child's face before we unwittingly turned it on. My son and I, unaware of the fact that we were about to unleash armageddon, turned the drone on and tossed it into the air. The drone, a distant relative of a Chucky doll, began targeting us for elimination. It swooped at us, over and over again, like a pissed off bird.Once we humans were sufficiently in fear for our lives, it pulled out a new, "trick." It developed an advanced flight path and proceeded to fly to the opposite end of our house, undeterred by any walls in its path. We simultaneously chased after our possessed drone and dove for the ground in terror as it made the effort to fly at our heads without warning during flight. It finally flew, angrily, into our kitchen. Once there, it flipped itself upside-down mid-air, directly landing in a pan of oil that I was heating up on the stove for french fries.This drone requires an exorcism.However, I care too much for the safety of my family (and the church) to bother to get one.This thing is now nestled at the bottom of the trash can.I hope it stays there and never torments another soul again.

Right out of the box I decided to try this thing and it shot off like a rocket! My kids and I all squeezed in delight and started chasing it around the room. It has some power for sure but my boys know to be careful with it. I appreciate that it comes with 2 extra propellers and a teeny screwdriver in case something happens to it.

This drone was great for the first few minutes. But then it flew into the bathroom, hit the ceiling and fell. After that, every time we turned it on, it went straight up into the ceiling, hit the ceiling and fell to the ground. the instructions talk about a calibration feature, and how to start the calibration, but not how to actually calibrate it. The instructions are terrible, confusing, bad English - speaking of features that do not exist, not identifying some buttons, not telling you how to calibrate, etc. My kids are disappointed, thanks for birthday depression.

I bought 3 of these for my grand kids for Christmas. They had a blast with them. We had everyone up and playing with them in minutes. The kids are 8 and 10 and figured out how to use them instantly. Because it gets a bit chaotic with 3 going at once it is good that the battery life is fairly short. I like that this gets the kids up and moving to chase them around the room too. They do no damage because they are so light and when they do fall they do not break because the plastic covering is flexible so they kind of bounce. They can be great fun for everyone!

We purchased this drone for our kids as the one they were gifted had the propeller blades exposed and could injury them. We couldn't be much happier with this purchase, the unit charges in 10-15 minutes and keeps the kiddos entertained, we simply turn it on and let it go. The kids chase it around feverishly as it fly's around the house. The wonderful thing about this product is that is senses objects so you don't have to worry about it running into walls or destroying anything in the house. It's funny to see it get within reach then fly off as they try to catch it, this is one of these best items we've purchased to date. We highly recommend this product for the quality, price and fun factor!

First off, my grandkids loved these drones. Because there is no actual controller (you use your hand), the two year old was able to play with these as well. Second, the battery life is horrible....maybe ten minutes. I ended up buying four so that two could charge while two were being played with. The durability is just okay. I am no longer able to charge one of the drones because a small, internal plastic piece has moved which makes it so I cannot get the plug to go in.

We bought three of these. One only lasted 3 days before breaking. The kids do enjoy them though. I wish they were more endurable. Who knows how long the other two will last.Edited to add.......the other ones are now broken. For the price we paid, we got very little play time.

The listing states "Flying time: 15 to 30 minutes", which is why I considered this unit. This is a lie. The paperwork that came with the unit states 5-8 minutes of flight time. I timed the unit and on medium speed, it lasted 4 minutes. Sensors didn't seem to work too well either.
