About this deal

Most of the problems in other reviews sound like they had not fully charged the drone, we made this mistake on our second go ( need to plug together. I've never owned a drone before (except for a micro one - the Hubsan X4), so I didn't really know much about it, and had to do a lot of reading, especially about hardware, which was never my strong point. Great gift choice for the auntie (or Uncle) who’s not sure what their nephews and nieces are playing with - I’ve not got it wrong yet ?

Great to start with but now doesn’t seem to charge sufficiently to make it fly like it did initially. The Little Tikes Drone does feel quite fragile but I think that is how it needs to be designed for children. They mention that it doesn't fly, has poor performance, and lands without any ability to operate further. Secure all the screws very tight in the main part of the frame, maybe using Loctite or another screw glue.This does not affect your statutory rights) If items are received back damaged, or missing items we are entitled to make a charge to cover the cost of this, and thus this may affect the amount credited to you.

We thought that the drone was faulty as it kept cutting out and dropping to the ground now and again. Make sure the motors are wired correctly to the power distribution board, and then that you always attach the propellers the right way (2 are spinning clockwise, 2 are counter-clockwise). I would advise that you do not purchase this product if you do not want to disappoint your child, it is a terrible product. It's a solid hardware platform, that can hold its GPS-controlled position even in high winds, and can smoothly follow movement commands from the RC.New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging .

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Aside from crashing it, which I'm sure I will experience eventually, what other "rites of passage" must I do now?If I were able to do it with almost no knowledge of drone mechanics and hardware, I'm sure any DIY person can do it. We contacted Asurion (who we had bought the 3 year coverage plan with) and they refused to do anything about it. Frame and motors: I got the kit from 3D Robotics (they don't sell it anymore, unfortunately, since they discontinued their DIY products). With a 40 minute charge time, your little one won’t be waiting too long between flights, and even though the flight time is stated to be 3 minutes on the box, we’ve managed to squeeze a few more minutes out of it - it all depends on usage. The drone flew quite high when the up button was pressed and it also turned left and right depending on which button the children decided to press.

This has been very disappointing as it is advertised as a toy for young children that will be robust. Sometimes it shoots straight up and hits the ceiling and then crashes down, not sure why but it’s infrequent enough to not be a problem. My first Drone allows children as young as 4 years old to take to the sky, safely and successfully piloting their own Drone. To land, you press the downwards pointing button on the controller, and the chopper will slowly descend, along with some emergency siren sounds coming from the controller.

If you've ever felt sorry for your kids every time you take a drone for a fly, because they ask to have a go at flying it, but really can't, then you might be interested in this. After that it got worse until it became useless, with it being very difficult to control height, it just dropping to floor, and instead of taking off, just flying fast sideways and crashing. However, safely flying something that is essentially a group of spinning blades is not easy for young 'uns, which is why Little Tike's My First Drone caught our eye. Built from flexible plastic my first Drone is designed to last, absorbing any hits or bumps with little to no damage.
