Would buying my 8-year-old a Sky Viper drone be a bad idea?

We got my nephew a $65 drone from Target. It’s okay, but it drifts a lot in the wind. Not super reliable.

Thanks for sharing your experience .

My first drone was a small one from Amazon for about $15. It was simple and fun to fly indoors. For beginners, these cheap micro drones are a great way to get started without worrying too much about breaking them.
