The last drone I gave my grandson lasted one afternoon. He has flown this one into the kitchen wall, the door and the Christmas tree, and it just keeps going. He rings me every Sunday to show me a new flip.

The present he can crash

The present he can crash and keep flying.

Christmas morning. The paper is off, and he is holding the one thing he has asked for since summer: a real drone. You know how the cheap ones end. One wall, one snapped propeller, tears before lunch.

The Velora SpiderCopter has every propeller inside a full LED cage. He flies it into the wall, it bounces, he presses the button and it is back in the air. That is the present he is still flying in February.

How it works with Velora

One button. Nothing to set up.

  1. Step 1

    Charge it over USB

    Plug the battery into the USB charger in the box. No app, nothing to install.

  2. Step 2

    One button, lift-off

    Switch on the drone and the controller, press one button and it takes off and holds its height.

  3. Step 3

    Fly, flip, light up

    Three speeds to grow into, a 360° flip at the press of a button, and red and blue lights in the dark.

  4. The result

    Crash. Bounce. Keep flying.

    The cage takes the knock, the emergency stop brings it down, and he is straight back in the air.

Built to hit the wall. Still flying.

Built to hit the wall. Still flying.

You know how the cheap ones end: open propellers, one wall, the bin. The Velora SpiderCopter is built for real boys, not for a shop demo.

A full cage around every propeller. The wall, the sofa or the Christmas tree is a bounce, not a break, and little fingers stay away from the blades.

One button up, one button down. It takes off, holds its height and lands on its own. Heading for trouble? One long press on the emergency stop and it drops.

Three speeds. He starts slow on Christmas morning and is doing flips by Boxing Day.

Lights off. Drone up.

Lights off. Drone up.

Red and blue lights run all the way around the cage, so in a dark living room it glows like nothing else under the tree. That is the moment most children start screaming.

Living room, hallway, the back garden or Grandma's on Boxing Day. It is made to fly indoors, so it lives in his room instead of at the bottom of the wardrobe.

Summary of all 1,126 reviews

Mums and grandparents say this is the drone that finally lasted: the full cage takes the knocks from walls, furniture and the Christmas tree, and children are back in the air with one press of a button. Many mention that their child flew it on the first try thanks to one-key take-off, the emergency stop and the low speed, and that the red and blue lights turn the living room into a light show. Families with more than one child often ordered a second so they could race. A few wish it came in more colours.

He has flown it into the wall, the telly and the tree. The cage takes every knock and he just presses the button and goes again. Best present we bought this year.

My 7 year old flew it first try

Sceptical, because the last drone we bought lasted one afternoon. One button to take off, the stop button saved it a few times, and my 7 year old flew it on the first try.

Frequently asked questions

Is it hard to fly? +

No. One button takes it off and lands it, it holds its height by itself, and headless mode means it goes the way he pushes the stick, whichever way it is facing. Start on the low speed and most children are flying on the first try.

How do I charge it? +

With the USB charger in the box. Plug the battery in, let it fill up and it is ready to fly. No batteries to buy, no app to download.

Is it sturdy? What happens when it crashes? +

Yes, it is built for real children. Every propeller sits inside a full protective cage that takes the knock, so it bounces off walls and furniture and keeps flying. One long press on the emergency stop brings it straight down.

Is payment secure? +

Completely. Every transaction is encrypted through Shopify Payments. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay and PayPal.

Will it be ready to play straight away? +

Yes. Charge the battery with the USB charger in the box and it is ready. No app, no pairing, nothing to set up on Christmas morning.

What if we are not happy with it? +

You are covered by our 30 day money back guarantee. Get in touch within 30 days of receiving it with your order number and you get a full refund.

What age is it for? +

Recommended from 8 years. Children of 6 and 7 fly it happily on the low speed with an adult nearby, and plenty of dads end up flying it themselves.

Can it be used indoors? +

Yes, it is made for indoors. The cage protects the walls, the furniture and little fingers. Outside, fly it on a calm day, and indoors keep it away from ceiling fans.

Does it really light up? +

Yes. Red and blue LEDs run all the way around the cage. In a dark room it glows like a little UFO.

Is the controller included? +

Yes, at no extra cost. The handheld controller comes in the box, with one-key take-off and landing, three speeds, the 360° flip button and the emergency stop.

How do I charge it? +
