Potensic Upgraded A20 Mini Drone Easy to Fly Even to Kids and Beginners, RC Helicopter Quadcopter with Auto Hovering, Headless Mode, 3 Batteries and Remote Control, Gift Choice for Boys and Girls

You could control the drone fly toward any directions by Remote Controller. Once expert, you could adjust it to the high speed and fly through the obstacle course hoops by Eagle Pro. Well, it's good and fun. The battery life is small, but i don't see it as an issue, especially for beginners. The charging method is really helpful, as it just needs a usb input, so it can be charged in the car or with a portable charger. It doesn't take long for it to actually charge, just thirty or so minutes. It's very sturdy, it can handle hitting trees, the ground repeatedly, a wall, and a table! So far, the only thing that happened was that the battery fell out a bit when Freedom (my drone's name) crashed on the ground the first time. It also hit the rocks multiple times and nothing. It's easy to get used to, and its so fun chasing it around and seeing what the craziest crash landing is. Great for kids or teenagers with little experience in life. The packaging is good, there was no damage. If the battery life is such an issue, then you can always charge the extra and switch them out when one dies so there's extra time. It won't do much, but it would help. With Altitude Hold, Headless Mode and One Key Taking-off / Landing, you could fly it without worrying about the direction and control it easier. Anyway, highly recommend! It's a great first drone and hopefully it'll last a long time.

When I found these mini drones at such a great price I decided to get two for each of our Granddaughters and one for this never too old kid, me. Immediately upon receiving them I opened each and charged all their batteries and set each one up to test before giving two of them to our Granddaughters. Some constructive suggestions to the manufacturer or distributor would be to review the instruction sheet included as one of the instructions just seemed to be incorrect although it may have been the way I was reading it (read it over about 3 times). Also, add a link to your sales page for an instruction video that takes you thru each of the steps outlined on the instruction sheet. Although both our Granddaughters are computer/tablet or whatever electronic there is savvy and I have been working with computers for 34 years, I still found it easier to learn how to operate the drones by searching thru Youtube videos and watching several different ones before I was comfortable with how to operate it without losing control of it. I never timed the total flight timer per battery but it did seem like it was 7-10 minutes per battery, or there abouts. The drone (once I learned how to get it going) was very fast and highly maneuverable, if you use the headless option and overall, I found the drones to offer a lot of fun flying for a small amount of money. Now for the except one thing - I attempted to show our youngest granddaughter who is 10 how to operate the drone, she did have issues with the fact the left control button is not used for actually flying it in any direction but when she took it home I also showed her the youtube videos to watch. She played around with it for a couple of short flights in the house but then took it outside one day last week without adult supervision and apparently did not use the headless option of flight. The drone took off on it's own around the back of their house and has not been seen since. She and her Father searched for several hours but could not find it. So overall, I am pleased with the drones and how they operate but do suggest the extra instructions cited above plus one other possible option. Could it be possible to add a beeper of some sort that one of the controller buttons could actuate by pressing it to give off an audible sound loud enough to help you locate the drone if you loose control of it. I realize it could fly quite a distance but in the case of my Granddaughter, it most likely flew into one of the trees that surrounds their property and some type of sound might help locate the drone or yet another option that if the blades stop, have a flashing led on top that would blink so it might also help you locate the drone visually, if not in the day time, then when it begins getting darker.

The good: My destructo-child hasn’t managed to break it yet. It’s also fairly easy for him to fly and control. And it’s small and light so he’s not likely to break anything in the house flying it (it’s currently -8 out so going out with it isn’t gonna happen right now) The mediocre: it’s kind of a pain to get it paired to the remote sometimes The bad: The battery life sucks. I mean REALLY sucks. Thing will fly MAYBE 5-6 minutes before needing to swap out the battery. And the charging cable will render the unit useless if lost or broken since it uses an oddball connector.

I don't write many reviews and I'm actually skeptical of reading them lately. It seems like someone is always getting paid behind the scenes for a glowing review. Anyway, I'm not one of those. That said, I have a much larger and much more expensive drone that I have fun with at my local park. One thing it is not good for is flying in the house. So I ended up getting this drone because of the great reviews. I can tell you that it lives up to the hype. I've learned to fly it under chairs, through obstacle courses, and just about anything else my kids can think up. It's a blast. One thing I cannot get it to do is a flip. I don't even think this one can do that. No biggie. The drone works great in headless mode and reacts extremely well to the remote. All that said, I should mention that one or more of the motors went out and I'm not even six months in. I looked to see if you can buy one like the manual says. Nope. No luck. None in stock, nor any indication it ever was. Most people would probably give up and just call it a loss. I on the other hand wrote the company and wanted to see if they would honor their warranty. True to their word, they did. I sent them the required video showing them the issue. Once verified, they sent me a brand new one in the box. I must live close to them because I received it less than 48 hours later. Ironically, I received it faster than the original shipment from you know who. Many of you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, I'm back to flying it daily and having a blast with my little ones. Please note, that once you get a replacement you are no longer under warranty. This price is good and even if it only lasts another 6 months I think it is worth it. I think my first one was just a fluke and I'm not too worried about it. Hope this review helps someone.

Premesso che la valutazione tiene conto del prodotto arrivato con un'anomalia al sistema di mantenimento dell'altitudine o del barometro, le quattro stelle in realtà sono cinque perché lo ritengo un mini drone adatto ai bambini ed agli adulti principianti per la giocabilità le sue caratteristiche molto interessanti. Mi sembra doveroso aggiungere che ho fatto il reso e l'ho riordinato immediatamente, avendo avuto modo di testarlo in seguito posso descrivere la mia esperienza e le sue caratteristiche: CONTENUTO Mini Drone A20 Potensic Radiocomando freq. 2,4GHz 3 Batterie ricaricabili 4 Eliche come parti di ricambio Cavo per ricarica con presa USB Manuale e Garanzia PRO + decollo ed atterraggio automatico tramite pulsante + 3 velocità + mantenimento automatico dell'altitudine a circa 2 metri grazie al sensore barometrico + molto stabile in assenza di vento, reattivo nel controllo di volo + essendo leggero (26g) e flessibile attutisce bene gli urti + eliche protette + comandi semplici ma completi, la gestione è facile ed intuitiva + comando di rotazione testa/coda e modalità senza testa + segnalazione delle direzioni fronte/retro mediante luci led bianca/rossa + segnalazione esaurimento batterie + dimensioni adeguate per l'utilizzo al chiuso (9x8cm) CONTRO - batteria di durata limitata a 5 minuti, manovre di sostituzione non proprio agevoli - sportelletto e cavi di collegamento del vano batteria delicati - mantenimento di quota instabile in presenza di spostamenti d'aria - non adatto al volo in ambienti esterni per il peso e le dimensioni ridotte CONSIDERAZIONI Una volta presa dimestichezza è veramente divertente farlo svolazzare per casa, io adoro fargli fare il giro degli ambienti cercando di evitare i muri e gli oggetti seguendolo a breve distanza per poi farlo atterrare nei punti più disparati. I miei figli si inventano persino gli aeroporti con le piste di atterraggio utilizzando i lego o cartoni su cui disegnano la classica H nel cerchio per gli elicotteri. A dirla tutta non pesa nemmeno molto dover sostituire la batteria ogni 5 minuti, anche perché è difficile che siano proprio 5 minuti di volo continuativo, il tempo di sostituire due batterie che una si è caricata completamente, di solito ci vogliono 25 minuti con un alimentatore 5V da 1,55A, meno di 20 con quello da 2A. Però bisogna fare attenzione a non strattonare i cavi quando si sfila il connettore d'alimentazione dal drone, infatti di regola quest'operazione delicata la faccio io. E' bene dare un occhio alle istruzioni, presenti anche in italiano, sono dettagliate e permettono di sfruttare diverse funzionalità altrimenti sconosciute, ad esempio importante sapere come effettuare la calibratura dopo gli urti e le brusche cadute oppure usare correttamente la modalità senza testa. Al radiocomando sono necessarie tre batterie ministilo (AAA) non incluse nella scatola e anch'esso fornisce informazioni importanti, come il livello di carica delle stesse preannunciando l'esaurimento con due bip, oltre ad altre funzionalità descritte nel manuale di istruzioni. Il drone segnala la sua batteria scarica con la luce led rossa lampeggiante due volte mentre il radiocomando emette tre bip. In definitiva, se si considera l'onestà del prezzo in rapporto alle qualità ed alle caratteristiche di questo prodotto, non può che esser stato un ottimo acquisto, lo consiglio caldamente come regalo per bambini dai 6 anni in su, i miei hanno 5 ed 8 anni, ma si divertono di sicuro anche gli adulti. Grazie.

After searching for a while I gave this drone a chance. Very glad that I did. My son loves it and it is easy to fly. I definitely will look to this company for my next drone. With so many companies on the market with similar products it is hard to find good products.

Ce drone est génial. Pas cher, très solide, rapide a recharger,... Il est possible d en utiliser plusieurs en même temps sans avoir d interférences. Il est très maniable. Mes fils de 6 et 9 ans savent l utiliser sans l aide d un adulte Il se recharge en 30 minutes. 2 batteries sont fournies avec le drone. Je vous conseille d en acheter d'autres (trouvable sur Amazon ;). ) Afin de permettre à votre enfant de jouer longtemps sans avoir attendre la recherche de la batterie (5 minutes de jeu/30 minutes de recharge)

El dron es de calidad mas bien baja y el control no obedece adecuadamente

Not fly properly after one week use
