This tiny motor is absolutely wonderful. So simple to use and if you are a creative type you can easily use it for powering very lightweight home-built models. The scope for this micro-motor is very big indeed. It comes with a spare prop too. I thoroughly recommend it.

Better than expected. Charge for 5 seconds only and it runs for over a minute. Excellent gift for 6yr to 60yr old. OK 80

If this were somewhat more reliable and repeatable I think it would be an excellent product. The packaging is excellent so it doesn't get damaged or lost when you put it away but it works 5 out of 10 times. Maybe it is in the throwing, it it tricky to work out. I think a good and interesting product.

What a shame - lovely item but like the other one star reviewer says-too heavy, the plane just nose dives. You get more distance by hand.
Maybe it has some other use?.

I've tried it a couple of times and just once after 20 more or less it flew like 10 meters.

Purchased for my 11 year old. Will clearly need to keep practicing with technique, as so far not very successful. Will update this review if we work it out!
Annoyed that it came without batteries as it was specified twice in the 'Technical details' that they were.

Lovely item, made a great present for 10 and 8 year old nephews. One thing to bear in mind is that this item does not include batteries so make sure you have some in the house!

Works well, is very simple, and great fun especially for kids, allowing them the opportunity to learn about basic aerodynamic controls.
