The one I received is labeled "Gyrosphere" flying spinner on the box. It looks and operates the same as yours, but appears to be unbalanced and therefore quickly takes off and bangs into the wall, no matter how still or upright I hold it. There's no way I would tke it outside; I'd never see it again. Maybe your "FLYNova Pro" is the original version and has better construction.

Recently got mine, it comes on with a shake but nothing will turn it off till the battery dies. The battery lasts about 8 minuets. And mine wants to gently turn upside down. It won’t hover. It won’t float. It just veers off course till it flips over and spins out on the ground. A good idea but lacks perfection. I watched several KZbin videos and mine doesn’t act like theirs so it must be defective. I sent it back after a few charges and tries.

If you wait until the hype dies down, you’ll see it’s either a passing trend that didn’t last or a steady success. If it’s successful, the kinks are worked out and the cost is driven down over time. Yes, by the time I get it, although still new to me, everyone else views it as old news. But that just means I won’t have to share it with everyone and their mother, either.
