Needs a newer Ipad to use.
Thought this would be a neat toy for my son. What it did not say was that you need a newer generation I-pad to make it work. The new version of this uses some low frequency blue tooth tech that the older I-pads do not have. As it happens I have an I-pad just not a newer one. Just not going to drop $400 to play with a balloon. Product pics show a small controller, but you don't get that. I bet this would have been fun to annoy each other with, but now I have a bottle of Helium and a toy I can't use. Wish the description would have been more clear.

Great little blimp for fun and a high ceiling.
I've thoroughly enjoyed this toy blimp. I used a retired iPhone 5 on both modes of control and it was pure fun. I liked the fact that it connected to the charger through a micro USB connection. Previous small blimps were charged from the controller. This system worked much better.

Can't make bluetooth connecton with ipad even after folowing posted instructions.
I can't make the bluetooth connection. I'm using an ipad ios 9.2.1 and read the instructions from the manufacture on another post. . In the app I downloaded, I went to settings as the instructions stated, but there is no "scan" button to push. I'll update if I can get a solution from the manufacture.

It's pretty challenging to control
Please note, you need to provide your own helium. It's pretty challenging to control, but still quite a bit of fun.

Wish it were more robust.
Rather delicate, but functional and fun. Latex balloons don't stay inflated very long.

Half-baked product, should have been great...
Disappointing product. Does not come with instructions. There is no Android app, only iOS. Needs a newer ipod, ipad or iphone, as it requires a higher level of Bluetooth than the older models have. I had great hopes for this unique product, but it appears to be half-baked.
