Q: Can 2 of these work at the same time in the same room? Or will they interfere with each other? Thanks
submitted by StephanieO - 8 months ago
A: Yes, two Starrider drones can operate simultaneously in the same room. However, to ensure smooth operation and avoid potential signal interference, we recommend the following precautions: maintain some distance between the drones to minimize signal overlap, check for interference and adjust their positions or settings if needed, and ensure a clear line of sight between the drones and their controllers to maintain a strong signal. If you experience any interference or have further questions, please refer to the user manual or reach out to our support team at customercare@amaxbrands.com. We’re happy to help!

Broke after two days of play

cchamps - 5 days ago, Verified purchaser
This drone broke within two days of indoor only play. It only holds about a 10 minute charge, and even with careful maneuvering flew into my child’s hair and got tangled. I thought that was the worst of it, but one of the propellers snapped the next day (no, it weirdly wasn’t the one that had gotten hair tangled in it). Even on clearance for half off, this was not worth the cost.

My kid spent his own money on this. Thank goodness it was on clearance. But he got to play with it for half a day. He charged it multiple times, then one of the propellers broke and it now doesn’t fly.

The drone does not work at all as described. The connection is poor, it will not charge properly, and it does not even follow the commands of the "controller". My kids spent their own money on these and are very disappointed! Returning to store indefinitely.

Flies Straight into Walls

JP - 2 months ago
Total junk. The obstacle avoidance and hand guiding it says it can do doesn't work whatsoever. We even tried watching videos on youtube and they were running into the walls also. The watch remote is just for tricks, which worked, but the main feature of flying on it's own and avoiding obstacles was completely non-functioning. You'll notice all the good reviews are paid.

Easiest drone to fly in this price range

Erin S - 7 months ago, Verified purchaser
We’ve only had it for a day but believe me when I tell you we have purchased basically every drone that exists for our three year old (he is obsessed). This one is the easiest by far, he can even do tricks on it. It doesn’t just run into walls. It doesn’t fly insanely fast. It has fun light features and sounds that you change on this little watch remote (that is also how you control the drone). It is cheap and will definitely break, but we’ve never had one last more than a couple weeks anyway so that’s about on par for a drone in this price range. Def recommend!

DANGEROUS!! DO NOT BUY
1 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
DoBetter - 7 months ago
DUDES! This garbage caused immediate injury and emotional trauma for my 5 year old daughter. The “obstacle avoidance” feature was completely non functioning. It flew directly into the side of my daughter’s face, sucking multiple large portions of her hair into the rapidly spinning fan blades. Instead of turning off when experiencing resistance, the blades continued to spin, causing more hair to be sucked in until we could turn it off. MEANWHILE, the plastic cage around the blades is so flimsy that it collapsed against her skin as soon as tension from the hair was placed on it, resulting in actual bleeding slashes and welts across her cheeks. The thing basically became a whirring mechanical leech, suctioned to her face. After cutting the cage in multiple places to try to free her hair, the hair itself is so destroyed/ripped/dreaded, that we are going to have to cut a majority of her hair off lest she look like Weird Barbie with chunks missing up near her scalp. Kids get hurt all the time. But it shouldn’t be by 30 dollar toys specifically marketed as having obstacle avoidance safety features that end in being mechanically mauled. Do better. Take it off the shelves.

Doesn’t hold a good charge then broke all within 12 hrs of getting it. Save your money, $30 is a lot to spend on a toy for 20 minutes of enjoyment. Plus the tears from your child when he discovers how cheap and broken it is is not what I signed up for.

Even after fully charging the battery on both the drone and the controller it won't maintain flight. Recalibrating per the instructions had no effect. The drone bounces on the ground for 10 seconds before turning off.

Pain and tears

Devon - 8 months ago
Terrible toy. It crashes constantly but the real problem is that it crashes into people. It got into my hair and tangled so badly in less than ten seconds. For something that is supposed to sense the perimeter to avoid crashes, it does a terrible job. My son is in tears because he thinks it's his fault that my scalp is in pain and my hair had to be cut to free it. It's not his fault. It's the designer of this awful product. Do not buy it if you want to avoid pain and tears.

Kaelyo - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
As fun as this is when it works, do not buy!!! It broke in less than a month. In that time it was used only 4 or 5 times. I expect something that cost $30 to last more than 5 uses! My 4 year old son was devastated, as he got it for his dad as a birthday gift and they enjoyed flying it together, and I am angry because it wasn’t cheap. Stuff from the dollar spot lasts longer than this! We loved it until it broke, but, nope. Do not recommend. Allocate your money elsewhere. The actual drone itself was fine, but the remote control/watch thing that makes it fly simply stopped working. It is absolute garbage quality. Never imagined it would break so obviously didn’t keep the box to return it, which is so frustrating because this kind of rapid failure of a product absolutely warrants a full refund.
