Gravitor Flying Toy

Got these for a 6 year old and 9 year old for Christmas. They have had a lot of fun with them. They make them go and bounce them up and down by putting their hands under them. It's fun to mess with them for what they cost. They are somewhat easy to break though. They are just made out of basically a hard foam and if they get hit hard enough they crack. Two young boys proved they don't have the best durability ever. Nothing a little super glue can't fix so far, but there have been some incidents. With that said, they are still a lot of fun for what they cost. The kids have had a real good time with them. Hopefully they will last a little longer.

Very Kool item, simple Instructions, my son thinks it has a mind of it's own!

Pricey for what it is; grandson likes it but says it doesn’t really go very far and is not what he anticipated as far as operation.

This thing is absolutely worthless and works nothing like advertised. It doesn’t matter how far or close you place your hand under it, it just goes wild and falls to the floor. If I could give it zero stars I would. Total waste of money. Disappointing Christmas present for my son.

Never flew properly but the child enjoyed the toy.

Bought as a birthday gift for a seven year old boy and was an immediate success. Kept him busy and can be used indoors.

Was immediately impressed with how well this thing flies. It had some charge right out of the box was able to immediately begin playing with it. After draining the battery, took around 20 mins to charge back to full capacity and it was ready to go again. Overall enjoyed trying to do tricks and appreciated that when I crashed it, the motor cuts immediately. Seems quite safe and durable! For only $22, makes a great present. Lots of tech packed in for a small price!

Interesting but fragile. One came with the sensor not working (does not react to commands going up without stopping). The other one works ok, but the usb connector has already lost its cover, it's still charging, but I predict it will break early. So it's a nice toy, but its build isn't sturdy enough to recommend buying.

Rispetto alle "palle volanti" più costose, questa versione di gioco é decisamente più abbordabile con un prezzo in offerta di poco sopra le 12 euro. Inoltre la possibilità di ricarica tramite USB rende possibile evitare continui cambi di batterie e quindi costi aggiuntivi. Data la rapidità con cui i ragazzini si stufano dei giocattoli è meglio risparmiare! Il packaging è molto curato e si presta anche alle occasioni di regalo. Il gioco poi è ben congeniato sebbene qualche limite che dirò tra poco. Per giocare: bisogna accendere il piccolo interruttore sulla parte alta del gioco, tenendo per l'antenna (ne trovate una di ricambio ma attenzione a non perderla) il disco volante un paio di secondi (il tempo necessario affinché prenda velocità) e poi si può lasciare. Il disco scenderà di quota fino a che il suo sensore rivelerà un ostacolo (la mano, una gamba o il pavimento), allora aumenterà la velocità delle eliche e si rialzerà nuovamente di una trentina di centimetri. Prendendolo per l'antenna ed inclinandolo si potrà indirizzarlo verso un altro giocatore...ma questa operazione è per me molto difficile visto che il disco prende subito velocità andando a sbattere ovunque. In caso il disco si trovi capovolto si spegnerà automaticamente dopo 2 secondi e per farlo ripartire occorrerà spegnere e riaccendere il gioco muovendo l' interruttore. Il gioco è divertente ma il limite è proprio la manovrabilità visto che gli spostamenti laterali sono quantomeno molto difficoltosi. In più le pale quando colpiscono la mano o altre parti del corpo sono piuttosto dolorose e non sarebbe stato malaccio pensare a qualche tipo di schermatura sul basso per evitare questo tipo di inconvenienti. In questa settimana di gioco io e mio figlio l'abbiamo sbattuto praticamente ovunque senza che si rompesse, merito della scocca in polistirolo che lo rende sicuro anche in caso di urto contro il televisore o altro oggetto delicati. Io ve lo consoglio di sicuro! Un saluto a tutti!

Simplemente genial. A mi hija y sus amigos le encantó. Si que es verdad que va a bateria y cuando se acaba la bateria pues se acabó la diversión, la bateria dura bastante, hay que tener cuidado de no perder el palito de la parte superior. pero por lo demas genial.

Cool little toy. Can't speak to the mechanics of it because I got them on a good sale and donated them to children for Christmas. They were on sale under $10 at the time. Worth it.

El material es de unicel y flota solo planea, el sensor no detectó mi mano y me lastimé, pero no fue nada grave ya que el motor es basura y las hélices son de plástico

This thing is dead simple to fly - but you've got to read the instructions. Unlike some flying things, it would be easy to hurt your finger by holding it wrong. I did have to correct my child a few times about letting her fingers hang into the thrust duct. The toy is almost completely automated. You turn it on, hold it by its control stick, and wait a few moments while it increases the power to flight speed. Then it flies around, with obstacle avoidance really only from underneath, until it crashes into something. The motor stops a few moments after it tips over - which is helpful - but it isn't instant shut-off and therefore there is a danger of injury if a child grabs it too quickly. According to its design the blades won't spin up except in a certain moment after power cycling, but as it's an autonomous function I try to treat the blades as "loaded" at all times when power is available. I think the device has some sort of horizontal avoidance design, but we didn't find it to be very sophisticated. It is drawn to getting stuck in the curtains, and also hovers near our glossy cabinet doors until it touches and goes out of control. By handling the control stick, older children can "catch" the UFO and in theory, send it in a horizontal direction to pass to another person. But I don't find this function to work very reliably. Instead, we just launch it and watch it fly around the room until it gets caught on something. I consider this pretty darned safe if we follow the instructions. It's quite sturdy. It's powerful, flying for a good 4 minutes or so, and recharging is quick and simple. And finally although the autonomous control features aren't incredibly sophisticated, what it does do - hover and avoid lower obstacles - I think it does in a very well-controlled way. Definitely a lot of fun.
