Force1 Scoot
Score: 64/100
Syma Kids Drone
Score: 77/100Rankings
The SYMA X100 (X12) provides obstacle avoidance, gesture control and full-enclosed prop guards, delivering a durable and feature-rich indoor nano drone. Its flight time of 6-9 minutes and range of up to 20 m are modest, and it lacks a camera. Perfect for kids aged 8-12 who want stunt capabilities and safety features.
The Force1 Scoot LED is a hand-motion-controlled mini drone with a durable webbed shell and eye-catching LED ceiling projections. Its short 8-minute flight time and unpredictable flight paths limit its use to short indoor play sessions.

Professional reviewers describe the Force1 Scoot LED as a fun, budget‑friendly entry‑level drone with a tough, crash‑proof shell and entertaining ceiling‑LED effects, but they criticize its short 8‑minute flight time and lack of advanced controls, concluding it delivers exactly what its low price promises.
Everyday users consistently praise the drone's ease of use, durability, and eye-catching lights, calling it a great indoor toy for kids and parties, while repeatedly expressing frustration over the brief battery life and unpredictable flight behavior that limit continuous play.
Professional reviewers praise the X12 for its superior gyro-based stability, fun stunt repertoire and beginner-friendly controls, calling it a top pick among nano quadcopters. However, they note the limited 20 m range and rapid battery drain during flips, which keep it from being suitable for serious outdoor flying.
Everyday users love how entertaining and stable the X12 is indoors, highlighting its crash-resistant build and easy setup. Common complaints focus on the short 6-8 minute flight time, modest range and occasional tip-overs caused by slow yaw and a high center of gravity.
