I was at my friends house when he got it for xmas last year, we flew it for about 5 minutes, and his rotweiler shredded it to pieces when he saw it hovering, they are made of styrofoam. InCREDIBLY fun, just not fun for dogs.

Looks pretty fun, the guys at the mall where selling them. But what sucks is that once it hits the ground you can’t hover them back into the air, you have to throw it into the air yourself. So what if it lands in a neighbor’s yard or something?

Are you serious?  Isn’t that what the fan underneath is for, with the remote?

Hahah a ghetto one.

I have no clue. This guy at the mall was flying it and it went far but then it hit the ground and he had to run after it, picked it up and threw it up in the air.  So then I asked him what wil happen if it landed on a neighbor’s yard and he said nothing.

I’m sure the frequency of the remote only goes so far, is what probably happened.
