Amazon.com Product Description:


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.

What's in the Box
Dragonfly, remote control/charging base, detachable antenna, pair of spare wings, spare propeller, tail ribbon, user's manual.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Lovely toy . . .breaks easily!
I came across this toy in Walmart on sale for $25 bucks and my 8 yr old son LOVED it. It is a really cool and fun toy for a boy that age. It broke in 3 days. I assumed it was just my son being rough and he was devastated so I ordered it on Amazon. It broke after another 3 or 4 days. This toy is not durable.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Cool concept, poor execution
My 8-yr old had this dragonfly on his Christmas wishlist and got it from a relative. We read the instructions, took the dragonfly out of the box and flew it for a few minutes - indoors - and on the fourth or fifth fall, from not very high up, the wings broke in two places. I was helping my son, and we were not at all rough with the toy, but still it broke incredibly easily. My son was really disappointed, so I phoned WowWee customer service and was told to take photos of the broken wings and email ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A wonderful substitute for an rc airplane
This is a great substitute for un reliable and delicate rc airplanes. Also its more fun than airplane because all an aiplane does is spin its propellers, crash, and break. Flytechs on the other hand, are relible, fun, and durable. They flie great on a windless day but they are bothered by even the slightist gust of wind. On a nice and sunny day, the flytech is pretty radical. They fly at a "high" speed for a small and cheap toy. And they are very derable and survive in situations that an airplane would ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loads of fun!
I'm not sure why some people had trouble flying it. I charged it up, went to a local park, and gave the RC controls to my 6yr old daughter. she loved it! She had absolutely no problems flying it or keeping it in the air. My job was to run after it and make sure it didn't fly away or over the park fences.

It's plenty durable too. We had no broken parts after flying it for about 1 hour.

I was pleasantly surprised and give this 5 stars.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Marvelous flying toy. Worth every cent!
What a great toy: It is quite simply LOADS of fun! Loads I tell ya! I gave this toy as xmas gifts to 3 kids of varying ages (14, 17, 19... and a 4th one I bought for myself, a kid of 40). The kids loved their Dragonflies. And everyone else loved them too. Everyone wanted a turn to fly the remote control insect. Definitely the smash hit of all the xmas gifts given that day. They were so enjoyable I went and bought one for myself. I'm nearly 40 years old, still play video games, and will always be a kid ... Read More
