I basically bought this as a goof because and I'm a child at heart and wish they had such things when I was a kid. I was somewhat skeptical, but at under $25 why the heck not.
To my surprise, they actually work quite well. A bit tricky to steer but in no time I had them hovering around my living room. Great fun!
There is a tiny microswitch on each warrior to turn him on. A blinking blue light flashes to indicate he is on and can be seen through his clear helmet. When you press a button on the front of the control, a laser blast sound effect comes from it and a red LED lights the warriors gun. I haven't had a chance to battle yet, so I can't say how that works.
There is a panel on each remote that opens up to reveal a little cable to connect each warrior for charging. Mine came charged already.
The warriors themselves are made of foam so the risk of flight damage there is pretty low, but the propellers definitely seem delicate. My kit came with 4 small spare propellers for rear rotor, but if the top one or stabilizer goes I'd be out of luck. I would think if anything the large propeller would be the one most likely to get damaged. I gave this 3 stars for durability expecting some breakage in the near future, but these are very light so even crash landings are pretty soft. Hopefully I underestimated there.
Regarding take off, floor it immediately or you'll wind up with you warrior flopping around on the floor like I did for the first 5 minutes. I noticed that the mini screwdriver that comes with this to remove the battery case screw started stripping the screws, so I recommend using a better quality screwdriver for that.

These toys are way to fragile. I was having friends over to watch football games and thought these would be a blast to play with friends. I received them promptly. I followed all the instructions and decided to take the red one for a test spin. Within minutes of attempting the initial flight the red one was broken. The trim was hard to adjust and crashed a few times but not the type of crash you would expect to disable the copter. After the 3rd or 4th crash a piece of plastic that helps connect the blades to the motor broke making the toy useless. I thought I had done something wrong. So I took out Mr. Blue, charged him up and set him up for his initial flight. The trim on this one was set fine so I didn't need an adjustment and shortly after he was airborne. They are a little tricky to fly but I was having a good time. They are virtually impossible to land standing up but you can set them down easy. I thought I had figured out what was wrong with Mr. Red (bad trim) but on Blue's 2nd or third landing the exact same piece of plastic broke on Blue in the exact same way. Super glue does not fix it and without this connection they are worthless. I am in the process of getting my money back and will leave feedback on the seller later. Do not buy these toys.

This toy is very hard to control even for an adult. My grandson did think it was funny when it crashed into walls and the ceiling. Due to the cold weather they didn't get to try it outside away from obsticles. After about 15 minutes it lost his interest.
