What a Rush!
on September 15, 2016
Posted by: James
I bought this for my son's 12th birthday. And WOW! What a rush! It definitely is not "just" a toy, especially at this price. And there is a pretty steep learning curve. Fortunately, it has three different modes, Beginner, Intermediate, and "Insane" mode. Be sure to work your way up slowly to the expert mode! For example, starting in beginner mode, keep the black side of the craft facing you for easier maneuverability. Learn the feel of the joysticks before zooming off into the sunset.
Regarding the company, they answer the phone fast, and respond to your needs immediately. I crashed it TWICE in the first week we had it. But the company, xCraft, was incredibly helpful in fixing it back up for me. The company definitely gets 5 stars!
The product itself is amazing. It has such a long range, I have actually lost sight of it in the sky. But fortunately, it has a "Home" switch, which automatically brings it back to land at exactly the same spot you took off from! Once you graduate to the Insane mode, you can really start doing some crazy stuff (watch the YouTube videos for examples). The product is amazingly sturdy, considering how light it is. Five stars all day long!
Yes, it is pricey. However, I haven't had this much fun with a toy since I was 12! But sorry, son. Hand's off Dad's Toy!
My Best Buy number: 4203202162
I would recommend this to a friend!
