[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the concept was great and it seemed to be more sturdy tham other flying toys we have gotten in the past. My son flew this for just 5 minutes and one of the propellers broke in half. Was very disappointed, and I also have a disappointed son. We have tried to superglue it but it doesn't fly the same.

Air Hogs - Star Wars Speeder Bike Drone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and two oldest kids have been the ones that have been trying this out since we received it. They took this outside daily and tried it out. Overall everyone enjoyed it a lot.
I would have given this a 5 star if it wasn't for two things: 1) the retail price 2) how fragile this is. When I first received it the hand was broken at the wrist( you can see it in the photo). One of the propellers broke from a bad landing and the other hand broke off from landing.
I feel that for the price and how fragile this is , you would be better off with either an adult or a teen using this . Someone who is going to be pretty gentle with it. My husband did fine with this, but my 10 and 8 year old were not able to land as gracefully as daddy. Hence the broken pieces.
Now, when I talked to my husband about it ,he said he felt the guy on top was really unnecessary and made more issues then need be. My response being that it was supposed to be the whole star wars speeder experience but he still said it should be omitted.
On a final note, the life span of the charge was only about 30 mins which was disappointing. This seems to run out of power fast no matter how long you charge it. I did like that the controller had both batteries and was able to be charged.
My overall conclusion is, for the price and how delicate this product is, you would be better off giving this to a teen or adult. As far as fun goes, this was a really fun toy. We need to replace the propeller right now and plane to use again as soon as its fixed. Everyone really enjoyed it, just wish it was much more durable.
