    Verdict

    The 2024 BLADEZ Hot Wheels Hawk 24 Racing Quad is a compact 2.4 GHz micro-drone featuring a 6-axis gyro, 360-degree stunt capabilities, and three speed settings reaching up to 12 MPH. It includes updated beginner-friendly features like auto-hover, headless mode, and one-touch return, alongside crash-resistant guards and a 25-30 metre flight range. Main pros include its durable design, multiple speed levels for skill progression, and the inclusion of training gates for racing. However, notable cons include a short flight time of approximately 5–10 minutes and a lengthy recharge period of roughly 60 minutes via USB.
