What we like about BLADEZ Hawk 24

  • Highly recommended as a beginner-friendly drone for kids aged 8+
  • Compact 'nano' size makes it ideal and safe for indoor flying
  • Durable and crash-resistant design with protective blade guards
  • Offers multiple speed levels and 360-degree stunt capabilities
  • Responsive and accurate controls that are easy to learn
  • Includes helpful accessories like cardboard racing gates and spare blades

What we don't like about BLADEZ Hawk 24

  • Short flight time, typically lasting only 6 to 10 minutes per charge
  • Long recharge time relative to use, often requiring 60 minutes for a full charge
  • On/off switch is reported to be very small and potentially flimsy
  • Extremely lightweight, making it easily affected by even slight wind when outdoors
  • Some users reported reliability issues, such as the drone failing after a few weeks of use

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.
