TikduckFlying Orb Ball 2024 Toys Soaring Hover Boomerang Spinner Hand Controlled Mini Drone Cosmic Globe Spinning Kids Outdoor Fly Toy Birthday Gift Cool Stuff for Boys Girls 6 7 8 9 10+ Year Old

Got my kids off their tablets without a fight!! Great to play catch. It has colorful lights for nighttime playing. Need frequent charging, but I would expect that for the price.

**Edit: I was shocked that this company actually reached out to me and sent me a replacement! Now the battery lasts much longer and it’s a really fun toy! I was so impressed with their customer service! My boss even got one of these for his nephew because I’ve been talking about it so much.It’s a cool concept but ours dies in less than 5 min after fully charging, very disappointing

Love it, just sad that it only last 15 min then dies

But this for my son for Christmas and he loves that money well spent The colors are very vibrant the battery life is very long And it's very easy to use

My son has a little spaceship-shaped hover drone that he's enjoyed playing with for years. It has sensors, hovers above the hand, safe to play with indoors, it's fun to play with, and used to cost less than $20, so has been a go-to gift for friend's birthdays.(https://www.amazon.com/Mini-Drones-Kids-Adults-Controlled/dp/B082WLF4VR/ref=sr_1_6_sspa?crid=3154S6LRM7Y4N&keywords=Amax%2Bindustrial%2Bgroup%2Bdrone%2Bct-2000&qid=1693936724&sprefix=amax%2Bindustrial%2Bgroup%2Bdrone%2Bct-2000%2Caps%2C119&sr=8-6-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9tdGY&th=1)However, we deviated from the norm and bought this one for a friend having a Dragonball Z themed party, we thought it looked like a fireball. Also how cool is it to throw something and and have it come back to you?During the after-party we charged the drone so we could all play with it and see what it was like. It's crazy, it just zips around the house so fast and random. I was worried it was going to break something in their house! I couldn't get it to hover, it definitely doesn't boomerang; I wouldn't want to use it in a home and outside it would fly away, so maybe in a field? But that doesn't sound very fun. Overall, it's not what we expected and there's no point in having it...You could throw a tennis ball and essentially have the exact same experience.--- Update ---It seems we didn't know how to operate it correctly. Customer service was responsive, and sent instructions for how to do all the things. Good customer service experience. This from CS:We guess you might have some doubts about how to operate this flying toy. There are some tricks that need take some time to practice, but you will find it fun once you get hang of it.- Press the black switch on the end to turn the flying orb ball on. You may need to gently spin the propeller to align the switch through the bars of the protective cage to access it. When pressed, the LED lights will turn on. When you want the flying orb ball to start flying, shake or firmly tap the ball to activate the propeller.When you want to stop flying orb ball, just grasp it and firmly shake it up and down several times, which will deactivate the propeller. It will also stop flying after it bumps into an object and falls to the ground. When the propeller is not spinning, but the LED lights are on, you can locate the black switch and press it in the same manner for turning it on in order to turn it off.The flying orb ball is sensitive to small deviations in angles when tossed. Before tossing the orb, make sure it is oriented correctly in the UP position, which is indicated by the on button being at the top. When you toss the orb, toss it gently and without too much strength as the motor and propeller will provide movement.- Straight Line Boomerang: Grasp the spinning flying ball at the center with your hand, "up" facing upwards, then throw it from the ground by a 10-20 degree angle with the "up" side facing your body yourself. With some practice, it will fly back to you as it follows its original flight path after the flying ball reaches its maximum height.- Magic Levitation: Levitation is a skill that takes time to master as it requires balancing the orb over your hand while it is flight. After you have turned on the flying orb and it is oriented up, hold it with one hand as the propeller is moving and then place your other hand, palm side up, underneath the orb. You will feel wind from the propeller. Using your top hand to brace the flying orb, gently release it and try to balance it between your two hands until you can eventually follow and balance its movement using only one hand underneath it. With enough practice, levitation will become easier.Important Points: When flying orb ball leaves your hand, the "up" side (with the on switch) is the flight direction of the flying orb ball. By giving the ball different levels of throwing force and and different tossing angles, the ball will have different flight paths. Of course, the speed of the propeller is limited by the motor to avoid it flying vertically too high into the sky.Mastering the flying orb ball takes practice, but is super fun when you get the hang of it. you can scan transparency code on the product packaging box with the amazon shopping app for the demo videos how to operate the flying ball.If you still have any problem how to operate it, could you pls come back to us ? so that we can help you to solve it!Best regards!

The instructions say to throw the thing at a 15 degree angle. Our arms aren’t the best protractors, but we throw it at 15ish degrees and it comes back to the person that throws it a solid 15% of the time. The other 85% consists of it going up to the roof and bouncing around the house until it hits something hard enough that it shuts itself off (bear in mind the instructions suggest to use it indoors). We ended up knocking a glass over and breaking it with this thing. Could not recommend less.

Made a purchase for 2 orb balls but only one is working properly. For the price I didn't think the quality would have been this poor. Item was delivered in a very timely manner but my both kids cannot enjoy it.This is an updated review - as stated above, only 1 ball worked. However, the company did reach out to me and generously offered me a replacement ball or a refund. They were kind, professional; patient and understanding and they answered every concern and question I had regarding quality control. I really appreciated the degree of value they placed on me as a customer. I wouldn’t hesitate to make another purchase from this company. They exceeded my expectations.

A great gift for making grandchildren happy! Durable, too. I bought two more a whole year after the first one is still working great.
