Description

PERFORMANCE BY DESIGN - The all new TYPE R launches to the front of the Sky Viper pack with over 75% more power than our previous generation stunt drone. Bigger motors ensure an optimal 2:1 power-to-weight ratio, resulting in top speeds over 30 mph, quicker responsiveness, increased agility and pinpoint control. Pair it with a race-inspired firmware tune and you’ve got a recipe for performance that keeps TYPE R well out in front of the competition.

SPORT & RACE FLIGHT MODES - Multiple modes make TYPE R perfect for both experts and beginners. Sport mode is perfect for spirited casual flying or if you’re just learning. Tap it into R mode to amp up the aggression, increasing agility and responsiveness.

ADVANCED FLIGHT SOFTWARE - Like all Sky Viper drones, TYPE R is packed with the latest technology to make flying easier. Advanced software and precision electronics analyze and self-correct for any unintended flight deviation, including external factors such as wind. Sky Viper tech keeps TYPE R in the air and you in control.

ONE-TOUCH STUNTS - Perform amazing stunts with a simple tap! Fly barrel rolls in one of 4 different directions. Do flips from a stationery hover. Perform maneuvers in any direction with an additional tap of the directional stick.

AUTO LAUNCH AND LAND - Automatically launch to smooth hover, with the single press of a button. Press again to automatically land with smooth controlled precision.

Includes Drone, 2.4 GHz transmitter, Removable Rechargeable 3.7V 800 mAh LiPo Battery and Charging Cable, and an extra set of 4 Replacement Propellers.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This is my first drone and overall I think it’s a good one. It has different flight modes for beginner/casual flying, which helped me, and more advanced users. The auto launch and land really helps out too. I also really liked the one touch stunts. It makes you feel like a pro without being one. I’d say it’s great for beginners but can be used by experienced users as well though might not be as fun for them with all the auto features.

Kim - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The Sky Viper drone is a really great beginner drone. It comes with clear instructions, and even with my 12 year old who frustrates easily, the controls didn't take long to adjust to. The drone is able to zip around and do some tricks, keeping us all entertained for quite a while. For the price I was very happy with the features and would definitely recommend as a first drone.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The Sky Viper Type R Performance Drone is definitely built to thrill. For the small size, it has a lot of power. The directions were simple and clear to get started. It has powerful propellers for speed, has the ability to go a far distance and height. It also features different flight modes. I like that the remote is easy to use and control. However, I would not suggest flying on a windy day. Overall, great flying drone!

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I purchased this for my husband to test out if a drone was for him. He opened the box and fired the drone right up. He used it until the battery needed charging. He loves taking it out and flying it round the neighborhood. Our dog will follow it as we walk. He really likes having this drone.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This was not one of the easiest drones to operate but once you get rheswing of it, it's sure fun. It moves at super-fast speeds, the kids were trying to time each other for their in-the-sky obstacle course. The rechargeable battery doesn't take too long to recharge and it lasts for a decent amount of time. Recommended for entry-level.

Harry - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. It has a compact size which is not too difficult to carry. The speed of it can go really fast as described. The one touch launch and land just made my control much easier. I'd say it's a nice little drone that is friendly for the drone beginners.

Ember - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This drone can really fly. It's easy to start flying straight from the box. Take advice from me and learn to fly well before seeing how far it goes. I had read the instructions and thought I could handle testing it all out but it got too far away from me and into trees and I couldn't remember how to bring it back my way. I'm pretty sure it's stuck in one of my 20 foot trees.

Ashley - 2 months ago
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The sky viper is not only fun for kids, but it's fun for adults as well. It goes over 30 miles at top speed. The precision control is excellent and it does one touch stunts. The viper has a long battery life. It was really fun to play with. I highly recommend giving this a try, especially around the holidays. It's a great gift.

Rick - 2 months ago
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. It’s quick, agile, and tough enough to handle all the crashes I’ve put it through as I learn the ropes. The racing mode is a total thrill, it's runs pretty fast. The short battery life is a downside, cutting the fun a bit too soon, but every flight is packed with excitement.
