Customer Reviews:

Just got back from the park where me and 3 mates did some amazing stunts with our Turbo Drones. Really great product and outstanding value and fun for the money.

Having purchased an AR Drone last year for ¬£300 and watched it sail over several of my neighbours fences never to be seen again, I‚Äôve been looking for a reasonably priced Quadcopter for a while, and having seen this for ¬£50 had little hope that a gadget of this price would offer much performance. But how was I wrong. The controllability is amazing, and the fact that you can adjust the control setting response level from 20 to 100% is perfect as it means that as you master each level you don‚Äôt have to upgrade your gadget but just press a button on the controller. Be warned though, don‚Äôt go for 100% straight away as in this mode the Turbo Drone does flips that you will need a couple of hours of practice to totally master. Only negative is that to appreciate it to the maximum you do need quite a large space to fly it, but flying outside in calm conditions is no problem at all. You can fly it inside in average sized rooms but you just won‚Äôt be able to push the boundaries of what the Quadrocopter can do. It‚Äôs well worth purchasing an extra battery so that you can charge both up and don‚Äôt have to wait around much between charging. Durability gets a massive plus from me, as I‚Äôve crashed it hard many times and have not even had to use the provided spare blades yet. LED lights are awesome as well and when flying outside in bad light really help me to keep control as I can see which direction it is going. For the price, it‚Äôs the best remote control product I have seen, by a very long way.

Just featured on the Gadget Show Christmas Special - 3 December 2012 "Christmas toys aren't just for kids... and there was one pressie in particular I was keen to get my hands on, the Turbo Drone Quadrocopter!" Jason Bradbury - The Gadget Show Christmas Special 2012

BREAKING NEWS: You won’t find this Turbo Drone Quadrocopter any where else in the world. The design is exclusive to us and we've even added some amazing LED lights to it for an unbelievable night time flying experience.

We've been dreaming about a gadget like this for a number of year’s, and for it to have now arrived is absolutely ground breaking.

Sure, such Quadcopters have been available, but at the £200+ mark have been prohibitively expensive for your average Joe to experience.

And what an experience it is. Just check out the video to see what this awesome Turbo Drone Quadrocopter can do. Overall the fun and excitement this Quadcopter brings for the price is absolutely stunning.

Lets run through a few of its top features...

1. As its says on the box: "Can you flip it? Yes you can!" The controller has an adjustment setting from 20-100% responsiveness, meaning its very easy for total beginners to use, but very experienced pilots (that will be you soon!) can do super amazing stunts like totally flip it over on itself mid air. The adrenalin rush this gives you is very nice indeed :)

2. The v929 Turbo Drone is stable as a horse. The high tech built in Gyro means that it is unbelievably stable and displays very smooth movement.

3. It comes complete with a 2.4Ghz controllers, which is the nuts in terms of remote control flying. It makes it super responsive, you will never get any interference, bright conditions are zero problem (as they can be for infra red), and you can control the Quadcopter from up to 100 metres away.

4. Its very powerful so can be used both indoors and outside, even in slightly windy conditions, and the LED lights (can be turned on and off), make flying in dark conditions an absolute joy. This LED feature is exclusive to our v929 model.

5. The 500mAh 3.7v Li-po rechargeable battery (included) provides ample power to perform cool stunts and fly the Quadrocopter at super fast speeds. The fact that it can easily be plugged in and replaced if needed is a real bonus and not normally a feature of flying devices at this price point. If you want to reduce wait time while the battery is charging you can purchase and extra battery from us that is included in the spares pack.

6. As mentioned, the v929 Quadcopter controller uses 2.4 Ghz technology, but it also incorporates an LCD display on it, which is usually a feature of only very high end controllers. You can easily adjust the trim on the 4 channels via the controller.

The Micro Quadcopter comes with spare blades in the initial pack, and the optional extra spares pack (for £7) includes 2 x Blades 1 x Battery 2 x Fiber Rods. It's great to have an extra battery to increase flying times so you don't have to wait while charging.
