I believe Vernon Kerswell is an upstanding gentleman. He has never stopped communicating and has always responded to all of my inquiries. Everyone falls on bad times and gets stung one way or another.... See more

They lied in 2019 when they said they had a production ready drone with a guaranteed delivery of June 2019. Their crowdfunding page had many paragraphs about how this wasn't like regular crowd funding... See more

SCAM: I ordered a drone at a Megacon…

I ordered a drone at a Megacon convention. I was told it would delivered within 1 week. Since then I have received nothing and had no correspondence. Emails are ignored, phone calls go through to a messaging service and are ignored. It's impossible to get hold of them

I believe Vernon Kerswell!

I believe Vernon Kerswell is an upstanding gentleman. He has never stopped communicating and has always responded to all of my inquiries. Everyone falls on bad times and gets stung one way or another. Some fall and never get up. It is the courageous that begin again. I am with Vernon and Extremefliers. PS To everyone, you knew there was no guarantee of delivery. I can name some crowd-fund pigs that just took the money and poof gone. I lost too. But again I say, I knew what I was getting myself into. Sometimes good, sometimes not, so what... next. PSS I believe that will not be the case with Vernon. He is a person with integrity. Allan M

Well I would to fly any product from…BUT!

Well I would to fly any product from extremefliers but up until now they take you money and do not deliver anything not give an answer via email of phone.
They are scammers and take your money without even blinking your eyes.

Perfect

Great support from the team for my Micro Drone. Easy to use once you work out the controls and easy to repair which is what my boy needed for his first drone.

After 6 years no drone or refund

After 6 years no drone or refund. What to say? We just got scammed by Vernon. I was part of indiegogo and bought drone, 2 batteriesand and remote control. At least we know this scam stops here.

Vernon is a liar!!!

I contributed to the MicroDrone 4.0 campaign on Indiegogo in 2019 and have received nothing so far, except meaningless promises that they will take care of it.

A truly legendary Indiegogo scam

A truly legendary Indiegogo scam. Millions of dollars missing, a campaign owner who to this day is blaming the pandemic of five years ago, and now Indiegogo has memory-holed the entire project, leaving no record that it ever existed, and importantly, their role in enabling it. How is this fraud not massively illegal??

They lied in 2019 when they said they had a production ready drone with a guaranteed delivery of June 2019. Their crowdfunding page had many paragraphs about how this wasn't like regular crowd funding as the product was complete, thoroughly tested and only needed money for the production run. These have since been deleted but can be found on waybackmachine. The amount of lies and excuses since then has been astonishing, the disrespect towards backers appalling and the fact they are still dragging this out 6 years later is a joke.

Nice product, good vibe and a lot of fun

I bought a Micro Drone 3.0 from the Maker Central show and have had no issues at all. Good product and support. Seem to be a lot of fake reviews complaining about the company on social media. Competitors maybe? No problem from my experience.

Please do not be taken in by the very Flashy and professional look. was at a show recently, (will be writing to them too to say black list.) it was enticing and I was enticed! but went back to the hotel that night gave a cursory look at the website and am ashamed to say should have looked much closer as I the next day inadvertently when I mentioned a "product" on the site somehow think it might have encouraged a couple of of others to buy too - I am Sorry - I fell for it as well now have a lovely looking bag of drone that will never see the freedom of the sky.

The company may have had good intentions when started but now its a brilliant way of selling defective stock.
The website/s have missing telling details, if you look the social media sites there are no good ways of direct mediation. please do your own digging including companies house before considering doing any business with them.

I was one of the people who contributed to the $2m Mr Kerswell ran off with; 5+ years down the line we still have nothing, and after this amount of time it's hard to imagine we ever will
People would be well advised not to purchase from a company that regards their end of a sale, the supplying a product bit, as entirely optional

Avoid this company

If I could give 0 star, I would. As a company it's a disgrace. They promise to deliver a product (Micro drone 4) but in the end they keep the investors in the dark. They respond request with empty words, gives barley any information, they are not transparent and show alot of disrespect to the people who supported them and tried to contact them. Never trust them.

AVOID THESE SCAMMERS

AVOID THESE SCAMMERS

Thousands of people including me have been left out of pocket because of these crooks. Avoid anything that Extreme Fliers and Vernon Kerswell might be involved in.

do not buy anything from Vernon…

do not buy anything from Vernon kerswell, Mircrodrone, Extreme Fliers or his wife Ethan Zhou-Kerswell. They have scammed 14,000 people out of over £1.2m for a new drone they have never supplied via crowdfunding channel Indigogo. Kerswell has in excess of 200 court claims against him and more growing daily. Indigogo have started refunded people and have closed the project due to unfulfilled perks. He sold the drone to the backers as a fully developed and extensively test product and just needed the funding to progress to production. Once he closed the refund window he started downgrading parts, making it bigger, heavier and nothing like what was promised. Its a bait and switch scam from the start. Avoid him and his businesses at all costs
