Toys and Games Reviews of WowWee Robotic DragonFly - Blue (27 MHz)

Customer Review: Very Fragile, But Unlike Any Other
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a decent toy, but I am not sure if it is for youngsters because of its fragility. The toy has to be built from light material to make sure it can fly. The body of the dragon fly is made out of Styrofoam, like the kind it comes packaged with. The wires that that harness the wings go through a small opening in the Styrofoam to connect to the motor. If you apply the slightest pressure to the wire, it affects the manner in which the wings are attached to the motor, and the dragonfly will not fly as intended. I bought this for my 5-year old. He 'boy-handled' the toy without much concern for its fragility. Now the wings still flap, but the thing goes nowhere. Having said that, this toy is unlike any other I have seen, with its realistic flying abilities and how long it can stay up in the air. I was more fascinated with it than my son, and I was flying it one day in the rain as I couldn't wait until it stopped raining! I am getting another one, and keep a close eye on my son as he flies it, that's when I am not flying it myself! :-)

The Dragonfly includes a 2-channel remote that responds to changes in speed, direction, and height.
The world's first radio-controlled flying insect, the WowWee Dragonfly will provide hours of entertainment while enthralling the budding entomologist in your family. The Dragonfly is equipped with an ultra-light, dual-wing design and a highly flexible, crash-resistant structure, helping the insect stand up to bumps against the wall or hard landings on the ground. More significantly, the unit's unique ornithopter design flaps its wings just like a real insect, with accompanying rustling noises as it flies past. Make it fly out the window and into the open air, buzz up to a tall tree branch, and then gently come down and rest on a picnic table or lawn. The Dragonfly is a breeze to control, with a two-channel digital remote for manipulating the speed, direction, and height of the aeronautical marvel. You can even maneuver the Dragonfly into tight spaces or dive-bomb a neighbor--whatever your imagination suggests.

The Dragonfly is built using a durable carbon-fiber frame, with an impact-absorbing flexible body and 16-inch wings that take a ton of punishment. At the same time, the structure's lightweight housing protects your home interiors should you accidentally fly into a wall or two. Completing the insect-orific design is a pair of light-up LED eyes, which alerts you of the Dragonfly's status by blinking, pulsing, or shining clear and bright. It may look slightly lifeless and demonic, but the Dragonfly is none of the above. It's sociable, fun, and creative.



The remote doubles as a charging base for the lithium-polymer battery.
The Dragonfly is so inventive that it's already taken home a ton of honors, including a four-star rating from PC Magazine, an editor's choice award from Popular Mechanics for products displayed at the 2007 Consumer Electronics Association (CES) trade show, and the National Parenting Center's seal of approval. The Dragonfly, which includes a single rechargeable lithium polymer battery with a flight time of up to 10 minutes per charge, offers beginning and advanced skill levels and comes with a tail stabilizer for additional control. The remote control, meanwhile, requires six AA batteries (not included). All items are backed by a 30-day warranty.
