What we like about Silverlit Flybotic Bumper Drone

  • Protective bumper absorbs knocks
  • Altitude hold for steady hovering
  • Headless mode for easy steering
  • Simple setup with no app needed
  • Low price

What we don't like about Silverlit Flybotic Bumper Drone

  • No camera
  • Short range of about 30 m
  • Brushed motors limit durability
  • Older 2018 design

Verdict

The Silverlit Flybotic Bumper Drone is a simple indoor flying toy for young children, built to survive the knocks that come with learning. As the name suggests, a protective bumper surrounds the drone, so it can bounce off walls, furniture and people without damage. Altitude hold keeps it hovering at a steady height, and headless mode means children do not need to track which way the front is facing. The remote has a short range of about 30 m, which is plenty for a living room or hallway. There is no camera, app or GPS, and brushed motors keep the price low at the cost of long-term durability. Launched in 2018, it is an older design, yet its tough construction still suits young pilots. For a robust first drone, it is a sensible pick.
