I bought my MiniDrone at Zavvi, because of the very reasonable price and free delivery. It arrived quickly, and I have been very pleased with it. In fact, so much so that I bought three! Over the years, I've tried a few remote control helicopters and quadcopters / drones. I fly them indoors, for fun. Ease of control is important to me, especially as I fly around the house and don't want to damage things. What I want is a drone that goes forwards, backwards, left and right perfectly on command; that doesn't lose control if I rotate / pirouette the drone. I want the drone to maintain height above the floor ("altitude hold") without constant input and adjustment from me. Ideally, it can be piloted by a 12 year old. The MiniDrone is stable enough to be piloted with confidence. The one thing I would strongly recommend is to also purchase the Parrot FlyPad joystick controller - it is more responsive, precise and more intuitive due to the physical nature of the controls. And the battery system is great. Spare batteries can be slotted in and removed quickly. However, if you keep the battery inside, you can simply charge it using the drone's Micro USB slot. That takes about 45 minutes using a fast USB charge cable. Definitely recommended by me and my 14 year old son!

Really pleased with the drone itself. Birthday present for my 8 year old and he manages controls well. Very pleased with Zavvi, great price as i had shopped about and selling for a lot more elsewhere. Free delivery too, and signed delivery from the post office. Will definitely be using Zavvi again 
