*2018-12-27*

This is a ok app it would be better if the coup copilot would have more games and less loading even if the other players in the game were computers

It's a cool app and itt works fine

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-06-13*

App doesn't work at all. Won't connect to Bluetooth

### 1/5 — Cool if it ever worked

*2017-02-25*

The few times I have actually got it to link up to my phone, it has taken well over a minute per drone and we hooked up two. It was fun. I can't get it to connect at all now. If they can get this fixed, it will be awesome.

### 5/5 — Pretty Awesome!!!!

*2016-12-17*

Drones are great!! No matter what size, style, or color. And for Sky Viper to give an app that allows you to practice. Well it's wonderful being able to use the same controls in the app as it is on the actual drone. That kinda speaks for itself. Keep up the great work!!! And I'll keep buying them.

### 5/5 — This is awesome!

*2016-10-31*

The multiplayer of awesome with two drones. I love the racing, but the battle modes are cool too.
