i think that the discovery store dragonfly is the coolest one. i purchased one online a few weeks ago and i love it
I know I've been gone; I've been really busy lately.
I now have the fabled orange dragonfly from the Discovery Store. I am posting this to dispell rumors only:
IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE GREEN DRAGONFLY. IT EVEN HAS GREEN EYES. THE ORANGE COLORATION IS THE ONLY DIFFERENCE. THE PAINT SEEMS TOUGHER, BUT THAT IS ONLY SPECULATION.
Crap, caps lock was on, and I'm too lazy to retype that...
I agree, but only becuase orange is one of my favorite colors. It is, technologically, identical to the green dragonfly.
It took mine about 9 days to come, but said it would take about five. That may be because I ordered it during the weekend, however...
It also depends on where you live of course. Most places are not open on the weekend, or if you order it late in the day it might not get through until the next day. As well if it is sent through USPS, they tend to show up whenever they feel like it to pick up orders.
If you are lucky enough to be able to get the Flytech "Hornet" from Target as I was, instead of the Flytech "Dragonfly"....I would highly recommend it, due to the simple fact the the Hornet model IS different from the Dragonfly model, in that it has a much bigger "neck" than the Dragonfly model, (which after seeing many pics on the web where people have had the head break off at the neck on their Dragonfly model, seems to be a great improvement)....and also the fact that the tale of the Hornet model is also different than the Dragonfly model, both in shape, as well as color (either yellow or red, depending on the frequency you choose), unlike the plain white tale on the Dragonfly models....a personal preference of course, but in my opinion, is much cooler!
SIDE NOTE: A little bird came along and flew beside my Hornet yesterday evening for a little while....it was the coolest thing I have ever seen!!!!! (and scary at the same time, as I was afraid it would decide to attack it or something, but seems it just wanted some company in the sky for a little while!!! ha ha!!!!)
Oh...and the LEDs for the eyes on the Hornet matches the body color as well....yellow LEDs on the yellow Hornet....red LEDs on the red Hornet....and the radio controller is also red or yellow (depending on the frequency) as well...another cool feature!
