Drone Looks/Quality: Despite being small, this drone does look pretty good with a solid plastic body and racing drone shape it looks like a serious bit of tech and to be fair they have packed an awful lot into it. Yes, it is indeed lightweight, but that lack of weight doesn’t compromise the strength of the build. This drone is designed to be bashed and trashed, making it perfect for anyone thinking of getting into more professional drone racing.

Final Verdict: While this is clearly a drone made for kids, the speed and level of control you get are surprisingly good! This is a drone that is designed to be crashed over and over, and while the enclosed battery helps it to be pretty much ‘crash proof’ it also means it doesn’t have a great flight time which limits the amount of fun you can have with it. Its the perfect drone for anyone of any age thinking of getting into drone racing, plus the free FPV headset you get with it isn’t too bad at all.
