Disappointing Bluetooth connection
I used the powerup with my Hauwei P30 Lite. Often it took a long time to sync and sometimes the phone would think it had synced but the powerup wouldn't respond. I also found the range very short. Approx 20m. I also found the tilt function didn't work very well so I began flying in landscape mode using the slider rudder function.
Regardless I had a great time flying it with my own 3d flying wing design (after increasing the rudder area) until it got stuck in a thermal and flew away after flying out of range above my head.
really honest and reactive customer service
There was a missing part in the package and they immediately offered to refund in full or replace the entire item. Very honest and reactive. Thanks !
Bluetooth issues
The idea is good but we only managed to successfully connect Bluetooth once. We tried on two different android phones but couldn’t get it to create a pairing. We’ve only had one session so far and haven’t checked any troubleshooter yet.
Great Fun
I bought this as a present for my husband... sadly it doesn't connect to his Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge Android phone. Luckily it connected with no problem to my iphone8 so flying it is possible and it is great fun. The team are trying to work on a fix for this problem and have been quick to reply to our complaints.
Cannot give it 5stars because of connection problems
Must have gadget
Took me back to child hood dream of flying together with my iPhone. Designed my own airplane to fly. Tons of fun with my nephew.
Fun and engaging!
I purchased the Power Up 3.0 as a model for engineering design. The powerful motor and app make it ideal for students to work with while developing an understanding of how paper airplane design will affect flight. There are two models for paper airplanes included, but other models can be created and tried.
It is difficult to get the included designs to fly. Flaps are of critical importance! Once mastered, this paper airplane engine is a lot of fun!
Fun - a bit glitchy, but worth the price
I've had this for a few weeks and have flown it several times. The kit comes with paper and patterns for a couple of different airplane styles, but they're not all equal. The best (easiest to fly) that I've found so far was not part of the kit. There are a number of websites that have different styles of airplanes.
The Powerup 3.0 works pretty well most of the time. It's not great if there's much wind (no surprise, it's a paper airplane), and range is limited (you're working on bluetooth, so about 50-60 feet. Also, I've had some connection issues at times where it doesn't want to connect. However, if I turn off the motor and restart my phone, then try again it always connects.
Considering the price tag, this little toy provides a lot of fun for a very reasonable price.
Surreal...it's the dingo's kidneys...recommended.
A bit cautious before buying..items arrived on time and well packaged. However, flying a remote-controlled PAPER 'plane is just brilliant! Need to sort my manual dexterity...never was much good at such t things, even Jumping Flea. Totally recommended.
Regards,
James
Excellent toy
My grandson saw the plane on your web site. I purchased it for Christmas and he loves it.
Love it!
This little device is awesome!
There is no limitation of what paper plane you want to build and than equip with the remote control.
Keeps the kids connected of being creative and at the same time interested because it's 'electronic'.

Delivery was easy and fast.

Would always buy again.
Awesome!
I bought the PowerUp 3.0 for my buddy for Christmas, because as kids we were always making paper airplanes and dreaming of ways to improve them. I've gotten him goofy things in the past which generally haven't lived up to their hype, so he was hesistsnt to get too excited. We folded up the plane they recommended, and went outside and to our surprise, it actually flew! You can steer the plane left and right, and also adjust the throttle to make it climb! We spent a couple of hours flying a paper airplane out front, just like we used to do as kids. After, he said it was the best Christmas gift he's received!
Great features
Timely shipping and it arrived in perfect condition it's the only thing my grandson asked for
Fantastic!
This is exactly what my son wanted and the price was the best on the web. If (when) the plane crashes, all he has to do is fold a new on and he's of and running again. The control with the cell phone makes it an ideal "time waster" when he's waiting for a call or on a program to compile......it's the complete "Geek Toy"!
Flying high
I bought a paper plane it was nit very expensive and a great idea. Remember when you were a kid just having fun well kit vines with paper planes yiu just girls slinger the lines and great designs euro fighter it f22 you can make your own designs and just skip this plastic rid and propeller and head if plane is a battery snd blue tooth operated from your mobile from a application down load. Ten minutes to charge up from any use port and good to go flying quite a long distance for 15 minutes . I said it fir my child but I'm 57 year old man and it was really fir me.cane in a smart box and arrived with in 5 days. I liked it do much I'm ordering a few more so I'm never without it
Pffft
Waaaay too complicated to actually get up in the air flying. We spent an hour trying to get some air time, instead we spent most our time trying to find pieces of the plane that bust off on crashes. MAKE SURE you buy spare parts!..
Paper fun
Made paper airoplanes as a kid and thought this would be fun. Queried wheteher it would work with my tablet and they are right, it does. Makes others flying standard indoor models look on in amazement that this can fly. Great fun trimming and flying.
Great deal of fun
This was purchased as an Xmas present for someone who is nuts about aircraft and flying, and I cannot therefore comment on the item too fully as I must not open the packaging!

However, outwardly it looks just the present for the man (in this case - not a child!) who will open it on the big day, and he will be as happy as a sandboy!

From what can be seen, it appears that this is a well-made item, as well as being a good concept which will provide a great deal of fun.
Fun Fun Fun
This item is so fun for any techie or aviation minded person. Someone in our office personally had one and we were looking for a conference door prize. BINGO very well liked
Awesome
You = best
Great fun
Great fun once you build the right plane and choose the right day with no wind.
Great price
Little tricky to learn but my son loves it
Funny and good toy.
It is very funny. My little bro likes it. We can create the plane by our imagination and it can fly. So cool.
A fun gadget for someone who has everything else
A fun gadget for someone who has everything else. If I win the £20 voucher for writing this review, I'd be sure to use the voucher buying another one.
Good stuff
Like the idea and how you can DIY your plane, would be better if it has more customized plane templates
Love these!
This is my stress reliever. I take my phone and a paper airplane, go outside and fly it around the backyard and it just de-stresses me. I love PowerUp 3.0! And MobileFun.com is reliable and quick at shipping my order. I even had a defective unit and they replaced it without hassle. I highly recommend PowerUp 3.0 and MobileFun.com!
