toy drone

Remote-controlled flyer

A toy drone is a small, inexpensive unmanned aircraft designed for recreational use rather than professional applications.

Unlike commercial or military drones, toy drones typically have limited range, shorter battery life, and fewer features—often just basic flight controls and perhaps a low-resolution camera.

They're marketed primarily to hobbyists and children: He got a toy drone for his birthday and crashed it into a tree within minutes.
