Last about one min for a 20 min charge. I bought 2 for both my boys, and the first over revves and flies straight too the ceiling and the other one we got to use for a total time of 20 min and the rear motor cramped out.

Dont but it. Its not worth it.
I bought this drone because my son wanted it. There is no way to fly it outdoors because the wind just takes it away. I flew it in my house and it fell on the floor and the plastic on the fan part cracked. They give extra fans but i didn't get the plastic that broke off. Good for a few days.

Target has this item for about $20 cheaper than Kohls… the exact same thing! It’s a fun drone to fly to have some fun. Very light weight. I did dock a star because the buzzing of it is quite loud!

Arrived broken - will not charge.
Would never charge since we opened it. Very disappointing for a Christmas gift for my 9 year old. Target would not help with a replacement or refund.

Purchased for my 9 year old. The drone took off. Currently on the top of a 4 story Apt Building. Can't get it. It is supposed to rain and snow so who knows!

Horrible battery life
Two hour charge for 6 minutes (if you’re lucky) of flight. Don’t buy.

Buyer Beware!
14 yo just tried to fly it for the first time outside and it just kept going up in the air. Couldn’t control it at all. It was like watching a loose balloon float up and away. Eventually lost signal with the remote and fell from the sky but not anywhere near where he was flying it. Consider it lost and $40 down the toilet.

Styrofoam not worth it
Got this drone for Christmas for my 7 year old. Followed the directions, charged it for 2 hours then attempted to fly it for the whopping six minutes. It flew for maybe three and when it landed the tip of the jet broke off. This is very cheaply made and I would not recommend buying it . Made of styrofoam, find another drone.

Up, up, and away!
Believe the 1 star reviews. Don't fall for the "it's not going to happen to me" thinking trap. We flew this drone outside in little to no wind and in less than 2 mins it went up, up, up, never to be seen again. The drone did not appear to even register the "come back down" command of the stick. There's nothing like having a crying kid on Christmas. I can't tell ya about anything else about this drone because we didn't have it long enough. If you do buy it, keep it indoors, and maybe it will be a good experience.

don't buy!
purchased for ten year old and within 3 minutes the drone randomly flew off and was not able to be found. too much money for too little entertainment.

Fun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loved this product! It has a decent range and battery life! He played with it for hours upon end with friends in our neighborhood. Great find!

Its a good budget drone
I liked the drone, I came home and took it outside and it flew over my neighbors house, I found it 2 streets down. However if you make sure to adjust the trim, it flies great, I recommend getting good at it inside before taking it outdoors, it doesn't break tvs, or windows if you hit them. It does die quickly though. I like it 👍

Cool for 5 minutes...
My son loved it till a gust of wind took it up up up and away.. maybe used it for five minutes. No where to be found.. plenty of other ways to spend $50!

DO NOT BUY!
DO NOT BUY Just a few days after Christmas my son took his drone out. It took flight and lost connection to the remote. We never found it. He was so heartbroken.

Don't get this one...
Remote and drone would never pair. I thought about getting another one until I read all the other reviews.

Disappointed
I have ordered two of these drones and neither one work. I have called the number listed for help and of course it does not connect and the website is no help either. Will be returning them to target.

Disappointed
Christmas gift for my son. We took it to the park and once it reached a medium height, we weren’t able to bring it down. The only thing we could do is to stare at it as it kept going higher and higher until it disappeared. Disappointed because it only lasted 15 minutes until it was lost forever. Very little wind.
